Answer:The son is 6, the father is 24.

Explanation:

Let the man's age by M and the son's age be S.

Right now M = 4S

In three years

M + 3 = 3(S + 3)

So you put the 4S in to substitute for the M.

4S + 3 = 3(S + 3)

4S + 3 = 3S + 9

S = 6

If the son is 6, the father must be 24.

We can check this by adding three to both ages. Then, the son will be 9 and the father will be 27, which is three times 9.

Answer:

Even in today's world men and women both have different levels of privilege. In the 1900s women were seen more and housewives and mother's than as people. Now let's go back farther in time when women were not allowed to read, go to school or even think for themselves, men were always able to dream bigger and go after those dreams because they could. While women had to think practical because they know they had way less of a chase of there dreams actually coming true.

What is the best way to punctuate the bolded portion of the quotation?
Elza [17]

The best way to punctuate the bolded portion of the quotation is the following:

C. them."-C.S. Lewis

This is the best way considering that the sentence ends on 'Lewis'. Periods always go inside quotations, as you can see from this brief description between different citing standards.

MLA: Commas and periods directly following quotations always go inside closing quotation marks. Question marks can vary depending if the question is part of the quote, then the punctuation mark goes inside the quotation marks. If the question is not part of the direct quote, it goes outside.

AP: All punctuation goes inside the closing quotation marks. This includes commas, periods, question marks and exclamation points.

Chicago: Periods and commas always go inside quotation marks. Question marks and exclamation points that are part of the original quote are included inside quotation marks.
