Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation:
I recognize this as coming from an old 1912 novel published as "A Princess of Mars", by Edgar Rice Burroughs. I read the book as a teenage boy. A 2012 movie, called "John Carter", was based on this same book.
Answer A - No, because the character (Carter) says, "My muscles, perfectly attuned and accustomed to the force of gravity on Earth". Perfectly attuned is an athlete, not a clumsy person.
Answer B - No, because the character just doesn't sound all that frustrated. The experience is strange and inconvenient, yet he is handling his emotions pretty well for how weird it must be. It is more like he is writing about an amazing experience, not just complaining.
Answer D - No, because he never says that the experience was making him happy. He does not say that he was laughing or smiling or that it reminded him of some pleasant time he had as a boy.
Answer C - Yes. - Creation of vivid imagery. In a novel, the author must paint pictures with their words. Part of how the author does this is by giving you the picture of a man who feels very comfortable with his coordination on Earth, but keeps winding up about 9 feet off the ground without trying. He doesn't just "I kept falling". He tells you in vivid detail - "... landed me sprawling on my face or back ..."
Hope this helps!
Answer: x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>first, we remove the parentheses. </em>
10 - 54 - 24x = 10x - 120 + 8
<em>then, we just calculate that out.</em>
-44 - 24x = 10x - 112
<em>next, we move the terms.</em>
-24x - 10x = -112 + 44
<em>then, we collect the like terms and calculate it.</em>
-34x = -68
<em>finally, we divide both sides.</em>
x = 2
<u>Answer:</u>
1/5
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
To find this you would need to multiply the probability of pulling a white marble to the probability of pulling out a green marble.
1)First you would need the probability of pulling out a white marble. There are 10 marbles in total and out of those 2 are white. So the probability of pulling out a white marble would be 2/10. If you simplify that you would get 1/5 for the probability of pulling out a white marble.
2)Next, you would find the probability of pulling out a green marble. Using the same process that we used to find the probability of pulling out a white marble, we would find the answer to be 3/10. All that we did here was <em>green marbles/total marbles</em>. By filling that in we got 3/10 for the probability of pulling out a green marble.
3)Now all that is left is doing <em>probability of pulling a white marble × probability of pulling out a green marble</em>. This would be 1/5 × 3/10. After solving the answer would be 3/15 which we would simplify down to 1/5 as our final answer.
Answer:
13/20
Step-by-step explanation:
This is actually pretty simple. I had trouble with this for the longest time but it makes sense to me now. A number that is a percent is equal to that number over 100.
65%=65/100
Then all you have to do is simplify! (yaaay)
65/100=<u>13/20</u>
<u></u>
