This town does not actually exist, but it might easily have a thousand counterparts in America or elsewhere in the world. I know

of no community that has experienced all the misfortunes I describe. Yet every one of these disasters has actually happened somewhere, and many real communities have already suffered a substantial number of them. A grim specter has crept upon us almost unnoticed, and this imagined tragedy may easily become a stark reality we all shall know. —Silent Spring, Rachel Carson What is the best description of the author’s purpose in this passage? to convince readers of a threat to explain a frightening story to convince readers of the importance of community to explain a historical event

Answer:

Explanation:

aerospace engineering company borrowed $100,000 from the bank to get their company started. The company promised to pay a monthly payment of $500 to pay off the loan. The company could potentially turn profits of $20,000 a month. How long will it take the company to make $200000?

Amount borrowed = $100,000

Monthly repayment = $500

Monthly profit = $20,000

How long it'll take company to make $200,000

Since the company pays back $500 monthly, then net profit per month will be :

$20,000 - $500 = $19500

How long it'll take to make $200,000

Projected profit / net profit per month

$200,000 / $19500

= 10.256410

= about 10 months

Which clauses in these sentences are restrictive?
BlackZzzverrR [31]
According to the definition of restrictive clauses, it is a clause which hides possible meaning of preceding subject by limiting it.
 And with its definition we can easily determine the needed clause in each sentence: 
1. <span>The girl with the golden hair is the one we are looking for.
2. </span><span>The dog that ate my homework is called Henry.
</span>3. I’m saving the muffins that have cherries<span> for my sister.
4. The smile that she gave them was beautiful.
As you can see it can pose as characteristic of a subject in some measure.
Do hope it will help you!</span>
