Answer: Hyperbole

Explanation: "I know it feels like we all spend at least a hundred hours per week on homework" is an example of using hyperbole as verbal humor. Hyperbole also known as exaggeration is defined as a deliberate or unintentional overstatement, particularly extreme overstatement and is humorous when an individual has the cognitive ability to understand figurative language/figures of speech, rather than attributing literal meanings to all verbal speech.

How is money important in life, and why do people try to get so much if it is hurting the trees?
earnstyle [38]

Money is important in life because it ultimately decides your status, your stability, and what your future will look like. It is especially in high demand right now, and many people just can't make enough to sustain themselves and their families, resulting in the growing homeless crisis and in many families needing financial aid and help from other people to survive. People try to get so much of it and no one even thinks to care about trees being cut down, when it comes to their life. People just want to be able to live without piling debts and stress in regards to money and stability in life.

Why are east coast beaches in the u.S. Wider and sandier in general than west coast beaches?
Ad libitum [116K]

<u>Answer</u>:

The East Coast is far from a convergent plate boundary  that is why the east coast beaches in the US are Wider and sandier in general than the west coast beaches.

<u>Explanation</u>:

When the waves approach an irregular shoreline, they speed and break, they hit the points, and slowdown in the beaches that are quiet. Waves behave similarly in east coast causing them to be sandier.

Also, the east coast is far from convergent plate boundary., i.e.: place where 'tectonic plates' move towards each other. So, they have broader walks. East coast has hotels, buildings, casinos as compared to west coast which only have single homes.
