The Missouri Compromise<span> seemed to </span>solve<span> the </span>problem<span> by admitting </span>Missouri<span> as a slave state, keeping the number of free and slave states equal.
Hope this helps.! :)

Although none of these are completely correct, I'd choose D. to change tenses, an irregular verb has to change its spelling.
A is definitely incorrect - that is a rule about regular, rather than irregular verbs. B is also incorrect - there are no rules about irregular verbs so you have to learn them all by heart. C is incorrect because this is true for regular verbs as well, not just irregular.
This leaves us with D as the correct answer. Often, various forms of irregular verbs change more or less drastically. For example: see - saw - seen; ring - rang - rung, etc.
Answer:
If you count the number of seconds between the flash of lightning and the sound of thunder, and then divide by 5, you'll get the distance in miles to the lightning: 5 seconds = 1 mile, 15 seconds = 3 miles, 0 seconds = very close. Keep in mind that you should be in a safe place while counting.
