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
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Given</h3>
<h3>Find</h3>
- Solve for x
- Find x when p = -5
<h3>Solution</h3>
- 4(px + 1) = 64
- 4(px + 1)/4 = 64/4
- px + 1 = 16
- px = 15
- x = 15/p
<u>When p = -5, substitute p:</u>
Part A)
Multiply the amount he earned by 8.5%
8.5% written as a decimal is 0.085.
75,000 x 0.085 = $6,375
Part B)
Subtract the amount of tax from his earnings:
75,000 - 6,375 = $68,625
The weight of each cabbage is not given.
I'll assume that each cabbage weighs p pounds.
Now, we know that Yasmin bought 6 cabbage each weighing p pounds. To know the total weight, we will simply multiply the number of cabbages by the weight of each as follows:
Total weight = 6 * p = 6p pounds
Hope this helps :)
