1 "I hear it's someone's birthday today," remarked Ms. Perkins, the secretary, as Benjamin exited his mother's office. This was

a disadvantage of having your mom as your school principal—the faculty knew everything about you.
2 "I'm eighteen today," Benjamin replied with an embarrassed grin.

3 "Well, you don't look any different than you did yesterday," Ms. Perkins joked as she signed his hall pass.

4 Later, Benjamin caught his reflection in the cafeteria window and thought about what Ms. Perkins had said. Today, he was officially an adult, but he didn't look any different. He still had the same dark, disheveled hair and the same inquisitive eyes that were so large they sometimes seemed disproportionate with the rest of his face. He was the same height, and he still had the same prominent chin.

5 He also didn't feel particularly different. Benjamin could vividly recall the exhilaration he'd experienced on the morning of his tenth birthday. He'd bounded out of bed and basked in the knowledge that he was now one of the big kids. Benjamin felt as if he could do anything in that moment, but he didn't feel that immeasurable sense of joy today—and he couldn't help but wonder why.
What is the purpose of the dialogue in this passage?

A To reveal what Benjamin is thinking

B To show the reader the depth of the relationship between the character

C To reveal the premise of the passage- Benjamin's birthday

D To explain the internal conflict of the main character

A meteorologist reports that the chance of rain today is less than 25%. The variable r represents the chance of rain. Which stat
just olya [345]

Answer:

The inequality representing the chance of rain is r less-than 25 percent

4.5% is a solution to the inequality

24% is a solution to the inequality

Explanation:

Inequality is simply a statement that one value isn't equal to another:

a ≠ b (this is a symbol for not equal).

This can be also expressed using other words, such as:

a less than b (a < b)

a less or equal to b (a ⩽ b)

a greater than b (a > b)

a greater or equal to b (a ≥ b)

In this case, we have the chance of rain, r, is less than 25%, which means that:

r < 25%

Solution to this inequality is any value less than 25 and since we're dealing with chance of something, than the solution is any number from 0 to 25 (not including 25).
