SAT
1 answer:
kakasveta [241]3 years ago
6 0

A meaning other than the literal meaning

A figurative meaning has to do with the words which are used by an author to create a different meaning of a word so that he would have to observe closely to get the real meaning.

Some examples of a figurative expression include:

irony

Personification

Metaphor

Oxymoron

Sarcasm

Hyperbole, etc

With the aforementioned figurative expressions, an author can use them to create dramatic effect, etc

Three student attempt to define what a line segment it?
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

First definition:

  • Duru's definition: A line segment is a line connecting two endpoints

                                               ⇅

  • Teacher's comment: What you've written is true, but it isn't a correct definition. A ray would also fit your defenition

Second definition:

  • Oliver's definition: A line segment is when three points are all on the same line.

                                                ⇅

  • Teacher's comment: Were you thinking of the team collinear?

Third definition:

  • Carlos' definition: A line segment is<u> part of a line,</u> not the whole thing.

                                               ⇅

  • Teacher's comment: I think you have the right idea, but you need to be more careful with your language.

Explanation:

A line segment is <u>part of a line</u> that connects points. It limited consequently, it has length.

  • Duru's definition: A line segment is a line connecting two endpoints

                                               

It is missing that it is just a part of the line. A ray also connects two points but extends infinetly in one direction. Thus,  Duru's definition is not so specific.

That justifies teacher's comment:

  • Teacher's comment: What you've written is true, but it isn't a correct definition. A ray would also fit your defenition

Second definition:

  • Oliver's definition: A line segment is when three points are all on the same line.

 

The constraint of a line segment to three points all on the same line corresponds to collinear points. Two points always form a line,, but three points lie on a line only in they are collinear.

That justifies, theacher's comment:                          

  • Teacher's comment: Were you thinking of the team collinear?

Third definition:

  • Carlos' definition: A line segment is part of a line, not the whole thing.

Mathematicall language is formal. You must use precise words. An expression as 'whole thing" is not formal.

That justifies teacher's comment:

  • Teacher's comment: I think you have the right idea, but you need to be more careful with your language.

Suppose a friend of yours wants to buy a crystal candlestick. You remember seeing this item at both annie's attic and betty's br
Veronika [31]

The advice that will be given in the purchase of crystal candlestick is to go to

Betty's Breakables if the price is above $25.00.

In this scenario, we were told that Betty's Breakables offers 40% discount,

while Annie Attic offers $10 discount.

<h3>Calculation</h3>

Let's assume the price is $25.00, the discount at Betty's Breakables will be

= 40/100 × $25.00

= $10.

At Annie Attic, he was offered a $10 discount which is the same. However

there will be more gain on the discount if the price is above $25.

Let's assume the price is $30 , the discount will be $12 at Betty's Breakables

which is more than that at Annie Attic in which the discount remains at $10.

It is therefore cheaper to go to Betty's Breakable if the price of the

candlestick is above $25.
