The correct answer is C. Since the father likes taking risks in a game, he might like taking risks in life as well.

Explanation:

In reading, the process of inferring refers to ideas or points that can be concluded or guessed based on the information and details provided in a text, that do not explicitly state an idea but somehow suggest it. In the case of the excerpt presented, the author states a father and a sone were playing chess and in the case of the father played in a way that was risky as he is described as "putting his king into such sharp and unnecessary perils" situation that makes an old lady that is in the room or the same place make comments. These details show the way the father plays is particular and he seems to takes a lot of risks while playing, therefore it can be inferred he is a risky person and probably does the same in his life or that "Since the father likes taking risks in a game, he might like taking risks in life as well". Also, other details such as the age of the characters or the clothes of them are not provided which makes other options incorrect.

An ant can travel at a constant speed of 980 inches every 5 minutes. How far does the ant travel in 1 minute? At this rate, how
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

196 inches

1372 inches

Explanation:

d = Distance traveled = 980 inches

t = Time taken = 5 minutes

Speed is given by

s=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{980}{5}\\\Rightarrow s=196\ \text{inches/minute}

Now t = 1 minute

Distance is given by

d=st\\\Rightarrow d=196\times 1\\\Rightarrow d=196\ \text{inches}

The ant travels 196 inches in 1 minute.

Now t = 7 minutes

d=st\\\Rightarrow d=196\times 7\\\Rightarrow d=1372\ \text{inches}

The distance traveled by the ant in 7 minutes is 1372 inches.

Use the number 913,256. Write the name of the period that has the 913 digits
PIT_PIT [208]
In the numerical form of the value, 913, 256.
If we deduce it as a set of individual numbers in 913

900, 000 = nine hundred thousand
10, 000 = ten thousand
3, 000 = three thousand
 
913 = nine hundred and thirteen thousand
Again if we combine the set word form of the number value we will have nine hundred and thirteen thousand for 913 in 913, 256.

A poorly-cultivated critical thinker
vladimir1956 [14]

The correct answer is D) Communicates ineffectively with others in figuring out  solutions.

Explanation:

Critical thinking encompasses multiple abilities such as analyzing, questioning, collecting, evaluating, and using information. Moreover, it is part of critical thinking to communicate and explain one's ideas effectively and to use information to solve problems.

In this context, one behavior that is opposite to critical thinking and it is related to a poorly-cultivated critical thinking is "Communicates ineffectively with others in figuring out  solutions" because both communicating effectively and using information to solve solutions are part of critical thinking. Moreover, the lack of communication or ability to propose solutions shows this individual is not using actively processes such as analysis and evaluation.
