Answer:

1. The essay states that the problem is pollution. This can be found in the first line of paragraph one.

2. The writer suggest that people should "leave their cars and take public transport, instead," (paragraph 2). The writer also suggest that people should plant more trees in urban areas and use less energy.

3. By using public transportation, "there would be less exhaust fumes and air pollution levels will be reduced," (paragraph 2). By planting trees, the toxic fumes in the air would be absorbed by the trees and they would "breathe out oxygen," (paragraph 3). By using less energy, "we help reduce the pollution problem," (paragraph 4).

4. Paragraph 5 summarises the writer's opinion. You know this because the writer states, "In conclusion, I believe that," (paragraph 5)

MrRa [10]

This book contains a wide collection of stories regarding spies and agents that have worked both for and against their country. The content here spans from the formation of the United States in the Colonial Era to the more modern day spy stories. Even double agents (and sometimes triple agents) are discussed, in addition to the straight-up stories of spies and what they did. In one of the chapters, the author explains Benedict Arnold's story. He agreed to spy for the British because he felt wronged in his career by the Americans, as he thought he wasn't getting paid as much as he deserved. Arnold spied by pretending to still be on Washington's side and then capturing his "own" fort. There was also Elizabeth Van Lew, who spied for the Union by acting as a nurse in the prisoner camp. She would then get info from gossiping spies. Rose Greenhow also spied for the Confederates by sewing messages into the cuffs of dresses she made. The main purpose of writing this novel was to inform readers of how our government obtained information in the past, and how it still does today. Throughout the book, the author explains events throughout history that involved spying. This is because he wants to make the readers think about how spying was such a big part of our success as a nation.

Veronica is saving money to by a saddle for her horse that costs 175 . She plans to save $10 the first month and then increased

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

We have to find when she will accumulate $175. If she saves $5 more for each month, then in the following months she will save 15, 20, 25 and so on. We can generalize this sequence as 10 + 5(n-1), where n is the number of the months. Applying the sum of nth formula of algebraic sequence, we can write

$\frac{a_{1}+a_{n}}{2}n = \frac{10 + 10+5(n-1)}{2} n =175$

$n^{2}+3n-70=0$

$n_{1} = -10 , n_{2}=7$

The correct answer is 7 months. We can check that for seven months she will save 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 and including the first 10 dollar will sum up to 175 dollars.
