Answer:

Many more innocent people have been killed by paroled or released murderers than have been wrongly  executed.

Explanation:

Remember that to refute an argument means to disprove it by using your logic and reasoning in an argument, it is a reply. In this case my opponent is against capital punishement and gives me the arguments that support the idea. It´s argument states that the capital punishment is a "state-sanctioned killing and can kill innocent people."

To refute this I need to address to the topics presented. The option chosen is the one that does this, it makes a comparison of the numbers of deaths resulted from each type of outcome. In my opponent´s argument innocent people sentenced to death could eventually die. In my argument I state that although this has happened, the number is very small. In fact, the criminals that are released have killed more innocent people. This is a way to compare the pros and cons, in which my argument presents way more benefits that the cons presented by my opponent.

write a compound sentence for katelyn loves to bake cakes she would bake if she had the time. how to write this​
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A compound sentence is one that makes 2 simple sentences into 1.

Sentence 1: Katelyn loves to bake cakes.

Sentence 2: She would bake if she had the time.

The easiest way to make this into a compound sentence is to use but or and between them. These two words (but and and) are coordinating conjunctions.  But requires a comma.

Katelyn loves to bake cakes, but  she would bake (more) if she had the time.

Another way is to use a semicolon

Katelyn loves to bake cakes;   she would bake (more) if she had the time.

Give an example of a role conflict Chris Gardner faces please help I need this to graduate
Alchen [17]

Answer:

It was back in the early 1980s that Mr Gardner, then aged 27, and his toddler son were homeless for a year in San Francisco.

Enrolled on a low-paid trainee scheme at a stock brokerage, he didn't have enough money to raise the deposit to rent an apartment.

So Mr Gardner, who was estranged from his partner, and Chris Jr would instead sleep wherever they could.

In addition to the toilet at a railway station, they'd bed down in parks, at a church shelter, or under his desk at work after everyone else had gone home.

They ate in soup kitchens, and what little money he had was spent on putting his son in day nursery so he could go to work.

Despite this adversity, Mr Gardner thrived in his job. A natural at selling stocks and shares, at the end of his training period his firm, Dean Witter Reynolds (DWR), made him a full employee.

Finally able to rent a home for himself and his son, his career then rapidly ascended into the stratosphere, and in 1987 he opened his own investment firm, Gardner Rich.
