B) escape from their enemies by jumping away
Escape is spelled correctly in the excerpt. Escape does not have an x. This means option A is wrong and B is correct. C is also wrong because of the spelling of escape and also because it uses the wrong there. In the sentence, their is a possessive adjective. It shows that enemies "belong" to the monkeys since they are the enemies of the monkeys. There means a place, as in over there. They're is a contraction meaning they are. Option D is wrong because of the spelling of escape and the apostrophe in enemie's. An apostrophe is used for contractions or to show ownership. The enemies do not own anything and it is not part of a contraction.

Summary.
Explanation:
The given passage talks about how humans have become so dependent on machines. The author considers that one of the defect of our civilzation is that humans have become so dependent on machines. He asserts that humans created machines to aid them and help them. Humans were supposed to be machines master. But, it appears that machines are slowly taking place of humans, as masters.
The author asserts that machines require proper maintenance. They demand proper service and fueling, and on time. If proper caring is not done to them, they begin to throw tantrums by blowing up, bursting out, stopping to work, etc. Humans, according to author, even use their remaining time making more machines, which pose a threat that machines may become humans master.
Answer:
This solution is incorrect.
Explanation:
We will use the substitution method to solve this equation.
- The first step is to isolate one of the unknowns to find the solution, in which case we will isolate the x.
Then:
x - y = 75
x = 75 + y
- In the second step, we will replace the x found in the second equation to solve the first equation.
x + y = 743
(75 + y) + y = 743
75 + 2y = 743
2y = 743 - 75
2y = 668
y = 668/2
y = 334
- In the third step, we substitute the value of y in any of the questions to find the final result:
x - y = 75
x - 334 = 75
x = 75 + 334
x = 409
Therefore, if x represents the number of tickets sold before the tournament, and y represents the number of tickets sold at the door, and as the values of x = 409 and y = 334, we can conclude that the assistant made a mistake and inverted the values.
