Hello. You have not entered the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

It is likely that this text is referring to a recipe, in this case, we can assume that if Atwood used the word "conjure" instead of "make" or "bake", it is because she is referring to this recipe as a magic ritual that intends to invoke something spiritual, divine, like the bread or cake that this recipe may be referring to.

Can be students allowed to have pets on School? Yes or no? I chose no and I wan't to have 21 sentences why no. Thanks :)
zzz [600]
No, students shouldn't be allowed to have pets at school. Though many students love the thought of pets by their sides, it can be a distraction and many students that have allergies to pets. Imagine sitting in a classroom taking a test, and pets start going crazy, barking or causing a scene. Or students rubbing their eyes or sneezing at the shedding of fur. Students could also start playing with their pets and become distratced from their teachers. In conclusion, students may love pets at their side and may think it would be better, but in the end it would be a pretty bad idea.

Refute A. prove correct B. tear down C. become furious D. show kindness
riadik2000 [5.3K]
To refute something means to prove that something is not true, wrong, incorrect. So the answer would be none of those... I would choose B, it's close in meaning.

But id the questions ask what is the antonym, then the answer would be A.<span /><span />

Identify the underlined phrase in the sentence.
leonid [27]

Answer:

1. The idea of alien life (proposed many years ago) has not yet been proven- Participle phrase.

The participle phrase starts either with the present   (dependably ending with -ing) or past   (dependably ending with -ed)

The participle phrase includes the modifiers or objects to complete the thought of the sentence.

2. (According to the letter) the wedding is June 25th.- Prepositional.

A prepositional phrase refers to the phrase which begins with a preposition and ends with the 'objects' of the prepositions that are nouns, gerund, clause or pronoun.

The pattern of the prepositional phrase follows by the object of the preposition having one or more modifiers.

3. Mikayla's homeroom teacher, (mr. Jones) is very proud of her- Appositive

Appositive refers to a word or a noun that is followed by another phrase or noun which identifies or rename the noun or word. In other words, it refers to the literary device which appears after or before a noun phrase or noun, used with a comma.

4. (Talking) is not allowed in class- Gerund

Gerund in a sentence functions as a noun. Hence in a sentence, a gerund will act as direct objects, subjects, subject complements, an object of prepositions or indirect objects. Every gerund ends in -ing, and so does present participles. On the other hand, present participles act as modifiers or complete progressive verbs.

wally's used cars has 45 cars on the lot. Of these, 20% of the cars are red. How many red cars are there on the lot
avanturin [10]

Answer:

9

Explanation:

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 45 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.

3. If 45 is 100%, so we can write it down as 45=100%.

4. We know, that x is 20% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=20%.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 45=100%

2) x=20%

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

45/x=100%/20%

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 20% of 45

45/x=100/20

(45/x)*x=(100/20)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

45=5*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5) to get x

45/5=x

9=x

x=9

now we have:

20% of 45=9
