In Part A, the presence of the simile is comparing the daffodils to the stars by using a comparison through the comparison word "as". The characteristic that the author is comparing is continuous. Something continuous never ends; therefore, the correct answer is that the simile describes the endless rows of daffodils.

The phrase "staying power" may be new for some readers but its meaning can be easily deducted from the word choice and the context of the sentence.
Answer:
Jake earned $1,440 in commission.
Explanation:
Jake's commission is 15% of the amount he sells. To find the amount Jake has made in commission, we need to multiply the amount he sold, 9,600, by 15 and then divide it by 100.
9,600.15/100
=
144,000/100
=
1,440
Therefore, last week, Jake earned a total of $1,440, which is 15% of 9,600.
