Answer is B
d=sp
d=distance
s=speed
t=time
so
here is Jims equation
4t=d
John's equation
5t=3-d
we need to subtract d from 3 because their speeds are different so the distance will be different. Time stays the same.
5t=3-d
5t-3=-d
3-5t=d
now we can set the equation equal to each other
4t=d and 3-5t=d
4t=3-5t
9t=3
t=3/9=1/3
1/3 of an hour is 20 minutes
so the answer is B
The version of the sentence that is most concise is the last one - We had all gathered to celebrate the various recent events in our lives.
The other sentences just state so many words with the same meaning.
Deforestation has immediate consequences for the local population in terms of increased fuel scarcity, reduced supply of fodder, and leaf-litter manure. The unpredicted erosion, landslide, and lowland flooding, due to deforestation, are also major concerns in Nepal as well as in downstream countries...!
The correct answer would be a. "Laughing and talking" is not a way to start a sentence.
A run-on is a sentence that is too long, and either has no, or incorrect punctuation. So, that wouldn't be it.
A comma splice is a sentence that has a uneeded comma. This, has none.
Therefore, the answer would be a.
