1. If the narrator in a story is using the word “I”, the story is written in:
first person point of view.
third person point of view.

Answers

Answer:

1.First point of view

Explanation:

Because of using the pronoun I

Answer:

First person point of view

Explanation:

First person point of view uses words like "I, me, my, mine, we, and ours". The narrator of the story is a character in the story, and they share their own thoughts and feelings.

Third person point of view uses words like "He, she, it, they", and names of characters in the story. The story is told as if someone is watching the story and narrating it.

Therefore, the correct choice is: First person point of view

Describe the connection between the history of the bicycle and the history of women at the end of the 1800s.

Answers

Answer:

The development of the bicycle led to more freedom for women. Women needed different clothing to bike and were outside of the home more. People noticed these changes, which were going on at the same time as the women’s rights movement. This led to changes in laws related to women’s rights and a shift in the way women were viewed in society.

Calculate the EER for a 19-year-old man who is 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighs 155 pounds. The man works out using interval training for 60 minutes per session at least 5 days a week.



about 3100 kcal/day


about 2700 kcal/day


about 2100 kcal/day


about 4000 kcal/day

Answers

Answer: About 3100kcal/day

Explanation:

Gender - male

Height - 5 feet 10 inches (1.778m)

Weight - 155 pounds (70.307kg)

Age - 19

Session - 60 minutes / session atleast 5days a week (Active Physical Activity(PA) bracket)

Active PA factor = 1.27

Estimated Energy Requirement (kcal/day) =

Total Energy Expenditure + Energy Deposition

Adults 19 years and older - Men

EER = 662 - (9.53 x age [y]) + PA x { (15.91 x weight [kg]) + (539.6 x height [m]) }

EER = 662 - (9.53 × 19) + PA × {(15.91 × 70.307) + (539.6 × 1.778)}

EER = 662 - 181.07 + PA × { 1118.584 + 959.4088}

EER = 480.93 + PA × (2077.9928)

EER = 480.93 + 1.27(2077.9928)

EER = 480.93 + 2639.050856

EER = 3119.9808

EER is about 3100kcal/day

Answer:

about 3100 kcal/day (A)

Explanation:

Age = 19yrs

Height = 5 feet 10 inches tall = 5.833 feet = 1.78m

Weight = 155 pounds = (155/2.2)kg = 70.45kg

The desired BMI(body mass index) is 18.5 to 24.9 (128.7pounds to 173.4 pounds).

Since his weight is 155 pounds, it falls under the desired BMI.

EER for Adults 19 years and older - Men

EER = 661.8 - (9.53 x age [years]) + PAL x { (15.91 x weight [kg]) + (539.6 x height [m]) }, where PAL = 1 if sedentary, 1.11 if low active, 1.25 if active, and 1.48 if very active.

PAL = physical activity level

EER = Estimated Energy Requirements

His does interval training for 60 minutes per session at least 5 days a week that means he is active. PAL = 1.25

EER = 661.8 - (9.53 × 19) + 1.25×[(15.91 × 70.45) + (539.6×1.78)]

= 661.8 − 9.53(19) + 1.25((15.91×70.45)+(539.6×1.78))

= 3082.414375

EER = 3082kcal/day

Hence, his EER is about 3100 kcal/day.

"But it's only a big pencil," the Humbug objected, tapping it with his cane. "True enough," agreed the Mathemagician, "but once you learn to use it, there's no end to what you can do." What theme is represented by these lines?

Answers

Since there are no options to this question, nor have I been able to find any options online, I'll just answer with an interpretation of the excerpt.

Answer:

The theme represented by this line is that if you are an educated person, there is nothing you cannot do. Education is the secret to achieving anything.

Explanation:

In "The Phantom Tollbooth", the pencil is called "a magic staff". Its true magic relies on the person's capacity to use it. If you know Math, if you know languages, if you know any other subject that you like, you can work wonders with a pencil. It is a simple object that can bring to life your ideas, which can even change the world. That is what the Mathemagician reveals as the dialog progresses:

"But it's only a big pencil," the Humbug objected, tapping at it with his cane.

"True enough," agreed the Mathemagician; "but once you learn to use it, there's no end to what you can do."

"Can you make things disappear?" asked Milo excitedly.

"Why, certainly," he said, striding over to the easel. "Just step a little closer and watch carefully."

After demonstrating that there was nothing up his sleeves, in his hat, or behind his back, he wrote quickly:

4 + 9 − 2 × 16 + 1 ÷ 3 × 6 − 67 + 8 × 2 − 3 + 26 − 1 ÷ 34 + 3 ÷ 7 + 2 − 5 =

Then he looked up expectantly. "Seventeen!" shouted the bug, who always managed to be first with the wrong answer.

"It all comes to zero," corrected Milo.

"Precisely," said the Mathemagician, making a very theatrical bow, and the entire line of numbers vanished before their eyes.

In paragraph 87, Mr. Steward returns the button unit to the Lewis home after his phone conversation with Norma. How does this action affect the Lewises? Its on commonlit!! due today!!!

Answers

Answer:

A. It encourages Norma to consider using the button unit.

Explanation:

The short story Button, Button by Richard Matheson revolves around the theme of how a person may do anything to get money even at the cost of someone's life. This story deals with human greed and selfish nature.

Mr. Steward had told the Lewises about the button and how it works. Once pushed, it will kill someone they don't know and don't need to know. But the upside of it was that they will get $50,000. At first, the Lewises unitedly rejected the offer and rejected it. But Norma Lewis called him the next day, which led to the return of the package. And without her husband's knowledge, she kept it in the house. She began to conjure up reasons for the offer, stating "some eccentric millionaire is playing games with people" or that it might not be as serious as they had thought it'd be. This return of the package only encourages Norma to consider pushing the button, which we know led to the death of Arthur and thus, Norma got the right amount, which is $50,000 of his life insurance.

Answers

Answer: Yes

Explanation: Since, there are 6 sides to a cube, each with a different number, you have a 1 in 6 or 1/6th of a chance to roll a five. In other words for every 6 rolls you will roll a 5 one time. You have a 1/6 chance of rolling a 5. Those are the only ways I know how to describe it.

Answer:

No, because there's always a 1 out of 6 chance he'll get the same number. It's a small chance, but a chance nonetheless. He could still possibly roll another 5.

Decide if the underlined part of each sentence is an absolute phrase, an appositive phrase, a restrictive clause, or a
nonrestrictive clause.

Answers

Answer:

1) Restrictive clause.

2) Absolute phrase

3) Nonrestrictive clause.

3) Appositive clause.

Explanation:

The answer to the question above is the following one:

a) The concert that I attended was held last August.

A is a restrictive clause because it modifies the noun it precedes. It provides essential information as regards the sentence. If it was dropped, the sentence would not have the same meaning.

b) The audience moved as one, the crowd swaying the music.

B is an absolute phrase. Absolute phrases are phrases that modify a noun in a sentence but they are not connected to the sentence by a conjunction.  They are set off with a comma and can be deleted from the sentence without altering its meaning.

c) The  concert, which had been rescheduled, was sold out.

C is nonrestrictive clause. It provides information which is considered nonessential. Therefore, it can be erased without altering the meaning of the sentence.

d) The band, a hometown favorite, came back for serveral encores

D is an appositive phrase. An appositive is a noun or a noun phrase that renames another noun right beside it. They are set off with commas.

I would one day love to visit France. Not only is it’s beauty overwhelming but the history and cuisine calls me. I’d of course want to travel to Paris and see the sights but I’d also want to indulge in as much food as I could possibly eat. I imagine waking up on a bright yet foggy Sunday morning, and walking to the local café for a hot cup of coffee and a pastry of some sort. Then for lunch I’d walk amongst the other busy people to a big restaurant, somewhere with a great view. So perhaps, I’d choose to go to Le Tréport. Amazing views of the transparent yet blue tinted waves crashing up against the rocks with power and emotion, as if they were alive! Lastly, for dinner. I’d go to a small, family owned kitchen, and ask the waiter for their favorite dish on the menu. Not only do I feel that France can bring out the creativity in someone, I feel that it brings out ones spontaneity. I would love the darker, more negative side of me to disappear as my creativity and love for travel flourished in France!
