Answer:

b.Hector's spouse participates in an employer-sponsored plan but Hector is not eligible to participate in this plan.

Explanation:

According to the Affordable Care Act (ACA), the legal requirement for health insurance for firms with at least 50 employees is employer-sponsored coverage for employees and their children (until the age of 26). Although, most employers do provide coverage to spouse as well however, that is not a legal requirement. Hence, it can be suggested that Hector is not covered under employer-sponsored plan of the spouse. But, if Hector uses the Schedule A and itemize the medical deductions then Hector can deduct the cost of the premiums for AGI. This option also involves Hector's personal income as self-employed person as well. Hector's income must equal or exceed the total amount of health insurance deduction other wise only those deductions will be sanctioned that are equal to Hector's income.

Mandy's "save the whales" speech was very effective because she started off with stories about her personal experience with whal
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

The best answer to the question: Which principle of supporting material organization did Mandy effectively use in her speech? Would be: Going from soft to hard evidence, or from personal experience, to concrete data and evidence

Explanation:

Mandy gave a speech in which she most likely wanted to persuade her audience about the importance and the magnificence of whales, as well as how important protecting them was. Because she wanted to first produce a connection between her audience and herself through familiarity and emotional connection, she uses her personal experiences with whales (soft evidence) and with it brings in an interest in her listeners that goes beyond what is purely factual and scientific. Then, when that personal connection has been accomplished, she starts to reveal the hard evidence she has on whales through the release of statistics, sources and facts, to further support the arguments she most likely made through her soft evidence. This is the characteristic of the principle of supporting material organization mentioned in the answer.

When providing two or more authors' names in a parenthetical citation, use "and" to join the names, not the ampersand symbol. Fo
lord [1]

Answer: B. False

Explanation: Parenthetical citations are citations or notes that allow readers to know the original sources that appear in the body of your paper. Hence there won't be need for end notes or foot notes.

One of the rules of parenthetical citations concerning the ampersand and 'and' where two or more authors are involved is

1. You use 'and' to separate the last names if you mentioned the authors’ names in a sentence (in-text).

2. You use ampersand (&) to separate the last names if you place the authors’ names in the parenthetical citation.

Hence the answer to the question is false.

Alex

Answer: It shows that the Earth has in fact moved

Explanation: The fact that the continents can fit together like a puzzle goes to show that they once were together, and separated due to tectonic movement over millions of years. The original continent was referred to as Pangea- the Bering Strait was a piece of land that early humans migrated across following buffalo, which is now covered in water. This is just one of many examples of tectonic movement and the way the world once was.
