Story : A Dog’s Tale by Mark Twain
4. Read this sentence from the selection.
“Whenever she heard a large word she said it over to herself many times, and so was able to keep it until there was a dogmatic gathering in the neighborhood.”
In this sentence the word dogmatic is used as —
• an insightful simile
• a descriptive metaphor
• a humorous play on words
• an illuminating allusion
5. In the last paragraph the narrator says his mother would “fetch out a long word.” The connotations of the word fetch remind the reader that the narrator’s mother —
• is well educated
• is a dog
• knows lots of big words
• likes to show off
8. What is ironic about the author’s mother showing off with her knowledge of the word unintellectual?
• Her child knew she didn’t understand the word correctly.
• The strangers all already knew the meaning of the word.
• As any intellectual would know, the word should be “nonintellectual.”
• She did not know any synonyms for the word.
9. Which type of person is most like the author’s mother?
• A high-performing student with an excellent memory for words
• A very verbal person who always has a quick answer that sounds good
• A dishonest person who tells lies on a regular basis
• A person who likes dogs a lot and works at a veterinary clinic
The answers would be 11, if you plug it in it would be 5(11)-7=48
A - 3b = 4
a = b -2
(b - 2) - 3b = 4
b - 2 - 3b = 4
-2b = 4 + 2
-2b = 6
b = 6/-2
b = -3
a = b - 2
a = -3 -2
a = -5
to check: a = -5 ; b = -3 ⇒ (-5,-3)
a - 3b = 4
-5 - 3(-3) = 4
-5 + 9 = 4
4 = 4
Answer:
The equation of the line is y = 1/4x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find this, start with two points that are on the line. We'll use (0, -4) and (4, -3). Now we can use the slope formula to find the slope.
m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (-4 - -3)/(0 - 4)
m = -1/-4
m = 1/4
Now that we have this, we can use that slope and a point in point-slope form. Then we solve for y to get the equation.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - -4 = 1/4(x - 0)
y + 4 = 1/4x
y = 1/4x - 4
