What two aspects of the life of Cyclopes makes Odysseus think that they are uncivilized before he interacts with one?
Answers
When he looks at the land of the Cyclops, Odysseus can see that they have wonderful bunches of grapes. Soon he believes they are talented farmers. Agriculture for Odysseus is synonymous with civilization. Also, he realizes that Cyclops live in caves, which are like houses. Having a home is also a sign of civility for Odysseus.
However, Odysseus does not know that:
Cyclops do not cultivate the land and do not practice agriculture.Caves are inhospitable shelters and not a civilized home.Cyclops live in full barbarism and violence, without considering family and social relationships.This mistake of Odysseus in relation to the Cyclops, causes him and his men to be violently attacked, causing Odysseus to lose a large part of the crew and feel very guilty for having acted so incorrectly.
With this, we can conclude that we should never make decisions based only on what our eyes see, because appearances deceive.
We must not forget to mention that this question refers to the book "Odyssey" which tells the adventures of Odysseus and his crew, trying to return to their homes in Ithaca.

what does johnathans attitude toward these blessings show you about the nature of the nigerian civil war
Answers
Answer:
Jonathan's grateful attitude toward his blessings reveals that the Nigerian Civil War was brutal and had adverse effects on the Igbo people, or South Easterners.
Explanation:
The book, "Civil Peace", by Chinua Achebe tells the story of Jonathan Iwegbu, an Igbo man who survived the disastrous civil war. The war was fought between the state of Biafra and the Nigerian government from the year 1967 till 1970. The Biafrans believed that they were marginalized by the Nigerian government, leading to the declaration of the Republic of Biafra in 1967.
The five blessings Jonathan Iwegbu was grateful for include; his family, consisting of his wife and three children out of four, their survival, his bicycle, the fact that his house in Enugu was still standing, as well as the money and belongings he had left. These blessings are rare for most people who experienced war. It also reveals the severity of the war as millions died from the war and did not have as much after the war. Therefore Johnathan's blessings were a cause for rejoicing.

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.

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.

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.

is the story the black aeroplane reality or fantasy
Answers
Answer:
The black aeroplane is fantasy.
Explanation:
The reasons behind this answer are that in the first place the pilot goes into a storm, then in the storm, there are very dark clouds that make him lose control as breaking the airplane's tools. An example of this is the compass that stops working. This can happen. However, in real life, it changes its magnetism and keeps pointing to a new magnetic spot. While in the story it spins like crazy. But the major factor is that inside that chaotic storm he finds another place and his pilot guide him to land just to find out the plane disappeared.
"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.

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.
