Read the following sentence:
After you've been around really loud noise, give your ears a long break of quiet time afterward so they can recover.
What is the adverb in the sentence?
AO long
BO really
C:quiet
DO loud

Answers

Answer:

The adverb in the sentence is:

B. really

Explanation:

"Long", "quiet" and "loud" are not adverbs - they are adjectives. An adjective is a word that modifies a noun or a pronoun by attributing a quality to it. In this case, "loud" is modifying "noise", "long" is modifying "break", and "quiet" is modifying "time".

On the other hand, an adverb is a word that modifies a verb, an adjective, or another adverb. "Really" is modifying the adjective "loud", intensifying it. Therefore, "really" is the correct option.

Doing things differently could be counted as misbehaving depending on what it is. But if we look at the rest of our answers,

"Mom, have you seen my hat?" Derrick asked as he fumbled around his room.
Picking up a sombrero, Mom replied, "You mean this one?"
"No, Mom, my baseball cap."
"Well, you should wear this hat. It will protect you from the Sun better."
"Nah, I like my baseball cap more," Derrick answered.
"I don't get it," Mom said. "You begged and pleaded for this sombrero when we were on vacation in Santa Fe. I tried to talk you out of it because I knew you'd never wear it. You promised that you would. I paid $30, and you haven't worn it once."
"But, Mom . . ."
"Don't 'But Mom' me, Mister. Here's the deal. You will earn the money to pay me back, or you will wear this sombrero out somewhere at least once within the next week. You've got to think about the effects of wasting money. If I have buyer's remorse over that hat, you should too. You need to fully consider whether or not you'll use what you ask for. Which choice will it be?"
"Raising $30 will take forever," Derrick said and sighed. "Okay, I'll wear the hat, Mom, but I'll look silly compared to everyone else. None of the other kids wear sombreros."
As the days passed, Derrick wasn't sure where he could wear his hat without looking out of place. School was out of the question. Baseball practice was out, too. Derrick didn't even want to consider wearing it to church.
At the end of the week, Mom asked Derrick, "You want to grab some Mexican food from Amigos?"
Derrick bolted to his room and grabbed his sombrero.
When he returned, Mom added, "You'll probably still be the only one in a sombrero."
"I know, but Amigos is still the best possible place to wear it," said Derrick. "Thanks, Mom."

excerpt from "George Washington's Farewell Address"

To the efficacy and permanency of your Union, a government for the whole is indispensable. No alliances, however strict, between the parts can be an adequate substitute. They must inevitably experience the infractions and interruptions which all alliances in all times have experienced. Sensible of this momentous truth, you have improved upon your first essay by the adoption of a Constitution of government better calculated than your former for an intimate Union and for the efficacious management of your common concerns. This government, the offspring of our own choice uninfluenced and unawed, adopted upon full investigation and mature deliberation, completely free in its principles, in the distribution of its powers uniting security with energy, and containing within itself a provision for its own amendment, has a just claim to your confidence and your support.

Refer to Explorations in Literature for a complete version of this speech.

Washington stresses the importance of “a government for the whole.” He acknowledges a counterclaim to his position: There will be conflicting priorities between different parts of the country.

Does Washington effectively rebut the counterclaim?


A. Yes, because he states that the Constitution can be amended to meet the country’s needs.


B. No, because he states that alliances can be a substitute for government.


C. No, because he states that the Constitution can be amended to meet the country’s needs.


D. Yes, because he states that alliances can be a substitute for government.

Answers

Explanation:

The correct answer for this question is this one: "No, because he states that the Constitution can be amended to meet the country’s needs." Washington does not effectively rebut the counterclaim because of the reason and his statement that the Constitution's amendments are based on the needs of the constituents. Hope this Helps!

an evaluation of the evidence

a concluding statement

Answers

Answer: An evaluation of the evidence

Explanation:

The thesis statement is essentially the main idea of a research or claim. It is usually short and concise such that it fits into a sentence. In this scenario that would be the author saying that everyone who is registered to vote should vote and those who are not registered should register.

There is also a concluding statement and a summary of the claim in the last paragraph.

What is missing however, is the evaluation of evidence. The claim did not present evidence as to why people should vote so evaluation is impossible.

Marc deposits $840 into a savings account. The account pays 2% simple interest on an annual basis. If he does not add or withdraw money from the account, how much interest will he earn after 6 months? Round to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

Interest earned will be $8.40  over 6 months.

Explanation:

Step 1 - let's find out how much interest is earned over 1 year:

($840/100) * 2 = $16.8  -  this is how much Marc would've earned over one year if he meets all criterias (No further deposits or withdrawals)

Step 2 - let's find out what would've been his interest in one month:

$16.8 / 12 = $1.4  - this is how much would've he earned per month.

Step 3 - let's find out how much he would've earned on 6 months:

$1.4 * 6 = $ 8.4. Rounded to nearest cent: $8.40

Interest earned will be $8.40  over 6 months. As Marc deposits $840 into a savings account. The account pays 2% simple interest on an annual basis.

What is Interest value?

The amount a venturer would get if all of the venture's assets were sold for their fair market value and all of the venture's liabilities—to the extent they were not taken into account while determining fair market value—were fully met is known as Interest Value.

According to the present value formula PV = FV/(1+i)n, the future value is equal to the present value divided by the sum of 1 plus the interest rate per period increased to the number of time periods.

Interest has an impact on the overall cost you pay when your loan is fully repaid. For instance, your repayment to the lender will be $105 if you borrow $100 at 5% interest. The loan provider will make $5.

Thus, Interest earned will be $8.40.
