The all flew 8 yards, so we can eliminate that for now.

1/2 - Sara - 6/12

2/3 - Jason - 8/12

1/4 - Michael - 3/12

1/6 - Denise - 2/12

Common denominator: 12

Jason's plane flew the farthest as his numerator is the largest (after we found a common denominator for all 4 fractions).

Summarize the story Vera tells Mr. Nuttel which she says happened three years ago.
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

Vera tells the central character, Frampton Nuttel, that three years ago a great tragedy occurred in their family. According to Vera, Mrs. Sappleton's husband and two younger brothers set out for a day of shooting, and did not return. It was concluded that the three, along with their little spaniel, were engulfed in the treacherous bog; their bodies were never found. Vera tells Framton that her aunt, Mrs. Sappleton, speaks frequently about the day the three men and the dog purportedly met their demise, leaving the window through which they exited that day open, as if in expectation of their return. As Vera and Framton sit there by the open window, Vera shudders and tells the visitor that on "quiet evenings like this," she still gets a "creepy feeling that they will all walk in through the window."

Mrs. Sappleton comes in at this point, and, as expected, talks about her husband and brothers, whom she says have gone shooting but will be home soon, coming through the window as is their habit. Framton, who is in a delicate mental state, believes, because of what Vera has told him, that the men in question are dead, and that Mrs. Sappleton is delusional. Disturbed by the ghastly situation, Framton becomes completely unnerved when Mr. Sappleton, the two other men, and the spaniel do indeed appear at the window, and he bolts off in terror. Vera, of course, has misled Framton for her own amusement, and when the family wonders why their visitor has left so pricipitously, she dissembles further, saying that he was most likely afraid of the dog.

I 100% need this. please help me so I can get it correct. ill even give brainliest.
klasskru [66]

Answer:

First, be sure the anecdote you have in mind is relevant to the context. If you are writing about dogs, for example, an anecdote about a cat is irrelevant. Ask yourself, “Why do I want to use this anecdote? What point does it illustrate?”

Next, consider these questions:

Who was involved in the story?

What happened?

When did it happen? Is this relevant?

Where did it happen? Is this relevant?

Explanation: that tells you how to write the paragraph.. here is an example paragraph:

(p.s do not copy this, try to use your own words for these paragraphs)

A female boss I worked under years ago didn’t like hiring young women, “They’re just going to get married and move away or have babies, and then we have to give them maternity leave,” she would say. This illustrates that women are sometimes also guilty of gender discrimination.

You can also use anecdotes to amuse or entertain. Not all anecdotes are serious! If something really funny happens to you today, you’ll tell your friends, won’t you? That’s an anecdote! Here’s one of my favorites:

My brother used to have an absolute obsession with answering the phone in time. He would get quite agitated if it stopped ringing before anyone picked up. One day, the phone started ringing while he was in the bathroom. He called out in a panicky voice, “Ring the phone! It’s answering!” The phone didn’t get answered. I was laughing much too hard for that!

hope this helps plz mark me brainliest

Can someone read and answer the 8 questions for me its due today and i have to write a graduation speech :'( you'll get 20 point
OleMash [197]

Answer:

I already read the passage so u have nothing to fear.

1) The word, semi, would present the image of an ancient king who whilst knowing exactly how to rule a kingdom,still engages in the rather archaic and wild customs of his people.

2) The two things behind the doors were a young beautiful woman and a fierce man eating tiger.

3) I think that is isn't fair. The system is based on luck and chance and most of the time, luck is not balanced.

5)The princess knows what is behind the doors and which door contains what. That means that she has all the knowledge she needs to be of help to her young lover. But it is her turbulent emotions on the subject that will make or mar his predicament.

6)The lady behind the door most definitely likes her lover and would not be opposed to marrying him. So of course the princess will hate her and do anything to stop her from being happy.

8) The lady. As far as I know, based on the evidence from the story, the princess loves the soldier and loving him would not do anything to spoil his or her happiness. The greatest part of love is sacrifice,and semi-barbaric as she is, I think the princess would understand that. Even though she hates the Lady behind the door, the survival of her lover depended on his marriage to that lady.
