Help please i will give crown

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

because if you solve a, it will I've you 2/8ths because 1/8th per batch so it will be 2/8ths for 2, and b just doesn't really make much sense

but with c we would divide total kilometers by the amount she ran per time to give 2/(1/8) which gives us 16

Basically a means multiply, b means add, and c means divide

hope this helps

"Well, I don't see any money," said his son, as he picked [the monkey's paw] up

lilavasa [31]

The line "And I bet I never shall" said by Herbert White gives a hint that something bad will be going to happen in the future. The sentence is an example of foreshadowing where the event which would going to happen in the future are hinted priorly.

Explanation:

The first wish that the family wished from the Monkey's paw was to get a sum of two hundred pounds. By that money, they could repay the debts of the house. After wishing, the very next day Herbert goes out to work where he meets with a machine accident. The family receives a sum of two hundred pounds as compensatory money from the company. The line said by Herbert "And I bet I never shall" is the evidence that the money which the family would receive as a wish from the monkey's paw would never be seen by him. This was an indication that Herbert would be no longer alive to witness the sum of the money.

What does the author talk about doing in the poem “Birthright” and what is the mood of the poem?

iren2701 [21]

The correct answer to what the author is talking about doing in the poem “Birthright” and what the mood of the poem is would be B. She discusses driving all the remote gravel roads and the mood is thoughtful.

When the author says that "We talked once of driving all the remote gravel roads, writing from here and there", "Today I am wondering about those unwritten drafts" and "But where could we travel and not long for the ache of wind blowing over open land?", she conveys that she wishes to drive all the remote gravel roads, exploring new places and experiences. Yet, the mood in her poem is thoughtful, because she talks about her family, her homeland and her ancestors. "You, the eventual heir to your family’s homestead; and me, an Indian woman who leases her land to white men made up of the same storm and grit and hunger as your grandfather", she says, moreover "Would we have listened and turned the far east or south and left behind the land our families have lived on for generations?", expressing her absorbing thoughts and also showing consideration for her hometown and family. Therefore, the correct answer is B. She discusses driving all the remote gravel roads and the mood is thoughtful.

The correct answer couldn't be A. She discusses driving all the remote gravel roads and the mood is happy because her mood is not happy. When she says "Could they have predicted the severity of this drought, would they have spoken to our own landscape, one of anger, sympathy and remorse", the author shows that she is reflecting about deep and difficult things, thus, her mood is not really happy. Therefore, the correct answer couldn't be A. She discusses driving all the remote gravel roads and the mood is happy.

The correct answer couldn't be C. She discusses taking over the family business and the mood is dark because she doesn't discuss taking over the family business in any part of the poem. On the contrary, she says that she should "abandon this place". Hence, the correct answer couldn't be C. She discusses taking over the family business and the mood is dark.

The correct answer couldn't be D. She discusses taking over the family business and the mood is thoughtful, because of the same explanation given previously; the author doesn't discuss taking over the family business, on the contrary. So, the correct answer couldn't be D. She discusses taking over the family business and the mood is thoughtful.

For each pair of the following sentences, identify the selection that best uses plain English and familiar words. In the case th

zvonat [6]

Answer:

B). Attending communication workshops may help advance your career.

D). The director of customer service was unaware that accounting had automated billing.

Explanation:

Word-choice always play a vital role in conveying the intended meaning of a specific message or idea. The use of simple and familiar words help communicate with a wider audience sharply while intricate and complex words are employed to address an educated audience(of that particular domain).

As per the question, options B and D appropriately employ the plain English and standard words as they convey the desired idea precisely in a compact form. This is reflected by the use of active voice and explicit yet specific message like 'attending communication workshops may help to advance your career' that explicitly states the intended idea without fabricating or complicating it. 'The director of.....billing' also portrays the idea clearly and directly with the use of simple and usual words. The other two options fail to present the idea in a simple yet familiar language.
