I was born with seventeen fingers and two toes. Doctors decided to use some of my extra fingers to replace the missing toes. Sin

ce the joints were similar and some of the extras were about toe length. To create a realistic big toe, surgeons used my third thumb. Sewing it skillfully with a tiny needle intended for use in making doll clothes. My surgeon chose the needle because he wanted to attempt a reconstruction of my nerves, muscles, and blood vessels. What good is a toe if it can’t function? I had always dreamed of being able to grip when I walked. To feel the sand between my toes. In fact, walking itself was always a challenge. From the age of eleven months, I wore prosthetics. The most uncomfortable fake toes you can imagine. Without them, I could not balance. With them, I was mobile and independent. They were designed to fit my foot and strap onto my ankle so that they wouldn’t slip off. Once I practiced walking with them, no one knew about my strange feet. My hands, however, were another matter. Seventeen fingers were hard to hide! Kids used to pick on me constantly. That all changed one day when they realized how well I could grip a ball. Catching a football was easy. Gripping a basketball. I didn’t even need a glove when I played baseball. Nothing could stop me! Except those feet. I could grip and catch all day, but I had to get down the field and court to do so. I knew that I had to fix the foot problem in order to be an elite athlete, so I had the surgery. I thinking that I would have no more problems, but the procedure just created a different one: I could run better, but I had seven fewer fingers for catching.

in a group discussion, which statement most clearly uses evidence to support a conclusion? a. the author makes some good points,
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer: C) The author proves that he's biased when he uses terms like "silly" and "stupid."

Explanation: The words "silly" and "stupid" are the only instances of evidence among the options, since they were taken directly from the text that is being discussed. The closest example of bringing the text's content into the discussion is in option C (stating what the author has expressed), but that option doesn't present any conclusion. Option A is presented as a personal opinion with a vague origin ("I feel") and option B tries to back the presented conclusion with an assumption ("the author obviously hates [...] fast food") instead of evidence.

What percent of 10 is 5
krek1111 [17]

Hey there,

10 percent *5 =

(10:100)*5 =

(10*5):100 =

50:100 = 0.5

Step 1: Our output value is 5.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with x.

Step 3: From step 1 above,5=100%.

Step 4: Similarly, x=10%.

Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:

5=100%(1).

x=10%(2).

Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both

equations have the same unit (%); we have

5/x= 100/10

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

x/5=10/100

x=0.5

Therefore, 10% of 5 is 0.5
