PART A: Which statement identifies the central idea of the text?

A.

Math is best taught using discovery-based learning as people are more likely to fail in math.

B.

Allowing and encouraging people to fail helps them to make sense of what they are learning.

C.

Although people can learn even when they fail at least once, they are still negatively affected by their failure.

D.

Younger people learn better through hands-on activities that can result in failure, while adults learn better through risk-free lectures.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. Allowing and encouraging people to fail helps them to make sense of what they are learning.

Explanation:

Remember, we are reminded of the story of Thomas Edison the great scientist who failed many times, learnt from his failures, and then discovered a new invention. The article employs educators especially to have a mental shift about their negative view of failure

Thus, the central idea of the article is that we accept failure, as this would lead to new discoveries and inventions.

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

"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.

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.

Read the last stanza of Robert Frost’s poem “The Road Not Taken.” Why is it significant that the two roads diverged?
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

from "The Road Not Taken"
by Robert Frost

A. The speaker is recalling, "with a sigh," how difficult it had been for him to choose the more traveled or the less traveled of the two roads. The forked road is a metaphor for the inherent duality in the natural world.

B. One of the forks in the road represents the speaker in his youth when he chose a road; the other stands for the speaker "ages and ages hence." The forked road is a metaphor for the many contradictions found in nature.

C. The speaker is relieved that he chose the road of moral living over one of temptation and ruin, which would have come from the other path.

D. The speaker is imagining what it might be like to describe his choice of a life path after he has taken that path to close to its end.

Answers

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

An individual hiking through a forest is abruptly confronted with a fork in the path with two paths wanting to be chose. This individual pauses,hands in pockets, and looks back and forth between the options. This is a reflection on the difficulty of making the choice and the consequences of this decision will made all the difference in this individual life.

The last stanza signify choices in life, whether to go alone or follow the other path traveled more often, which signify the possible choices people can make in life, and the impact that these have in determining their future.The last stanza in this poem highlights those times in life when a decision has to be made because life is a journey.

The correct answer to the last stanza of Robert Frost’s poem “The Road Not Taken poem is option A.

The speaker is recalling, "with a sigh," how difficult it had been for him to choose the more traveled or the less traveled of the two roads. The forked road is a metaphor for the inherent duality in the natural world.

Your friend, Jamie, rolled a number cube and got the number 5. On his next turn, he says he won’t be able to roll another 5 because he is only expected to roll a 5 once every six rolls. Is your friend correct

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.

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.
