Hello!
The answer is A) Lived a man as big as a barge, this does not describe neither how much the man can eat nor drink, it only describes how big the man is.
Have a great day and I hope this helped!
This would be a simile because the author is comparing a rag doll and a snowboarder using the word "like"
The answer would be 54.50 because 2.24x3=6.72 and 16x1.79=38.64 and you would need 6 packs of hearts and 6x3.19=19.14 and all that equals $54.50.
D). statistics. this shows that you are up to date on facts, and can prove facts about the topic you are speaking about. facts and statistics are concrete evidence that emphasize your arguments and help make your tip cohesive.
plus it makes you come off as smarter and more credible.
-hope it helps
