Sebastian drove for 2.2 hours at an average rate of 43.5 miles per hour. He calculates that he drove 95.7 miles. He knows the answer should be near 80, because 40 times 2 is 80. Which best explains Sebastian’s actual solution?
--------
1. The actual product is reasonable because it is near 80 but greater than 80. Both factors were rounded down, making the estimate lower than the actual product.

2. The actual product is unreasonable. It should be near 80 but less than 80 because both factors were rounded down.

3. The actual product is reasonable because the estimate and actual answers both have two places to the left of the decimal.

4. The actual product is unreasonable because the estimate has zero places to the right of the decimal and the actual product has one decimal place to the right of the decimal.

Answer: Sebastian drove 95.7 miles thus making his calculations more accurate than his estimate.

Explanation: His estimate is not very far off; it is lower than his actual distance because he rounded the amount of time and speed down/. Distance is equal to speed multiplied by time. D = S × T . So his time (2.2 hours) multiplied by speed (43.5 mph) equals 95.7

Answer:

Answer: 1

Explanation:

The actual product is reasonable because the estimated answer was rounded down, but not very much.

The hours lost 0.2 hours.

The distance lost 3.5

There are still 2 hours left, which is the majority of the time.

There are still 40 miles left which is a vast majority of the distance.

Using d = R * T

R = 40 miles / hour (not 43.5 miles hour)

T = 2 hours (not 2.2 hours)

So 40 * 2      = 80 is a good estimate.

He knows he's gone further because he rounded down in both cases.

The numbers that Major Tallmadge assigned to members of the Culper Ring were from a secret writing system he invented. He substituted digits for words that would be used in messages. "Long Island," for example, was 728, "arms" was 7, and "city" was 88. There was a number for each month, such as 341 for "January." He made four copies of his codes. He kept one and gave the others to Woodhull, Townsend, and General Washington. For words that did not have a number code, Tallmadge gave his agents a cipher. In a cipher, each letter in a message is replaced by another letter or a number.

The author’s purpose in this excerpt is to

teach readers about a code system used during the American Revolution.
persuade readers that ciphers are the greatest American invention.
argue that Major Tallmadge made a mistake in sharing copies of his codes.
compare the American codes for secret letters to the British codes.

Read this story and then answer the question that follows:

Sarah saw them, again. Out of the corner of her eye she could see the kids ganging up on the new girl, Lara. She was late to her band practice and only had a few minutes to get there. "I barely know her," she muttered to herself as she walked quickly to the car. "I'm sure she can take care of herself." Sarah knew this was an important rehearsal and could not miss it. "Hurry up," shouted her mom from the driver's seat. Sarah threw her guitar in the back seat and slammed the door. "Let's go," she said. As they rounded the corner and stopped at the stop sign—her heart racing—Sarah looked at her mom. "Mom, Lara needs our help. Let's go back."

In “A Retrieved Reformation” by O. Henry, Jimmy Valentine has left his old life behind. Which two sentences from the excerpt support this inference?
Socially he was also a success, and made many friends. And he accomplished the wish of his heart. He met Miss Annabel Adams, and became more and more captivated by her charms.

At the end of a year the situation of Mr. Ralph Spencer was this: he had won the respect of the community, his shoe-store was flourishing, and he and Annabel were engaged to be married in two weeks. Mr. Adams, the typical, plodding, country banker, approved of Spencer. Annabel's pride in him almost equalled her affection. He was as much at home in the family of Mr. Adams and that of Annabel's married sister as if he were already a member.

One day Jimmy sat down in his room and wrote this letter, which he mailed to the safe address of one of his old friends in St. Louis:

Dear Old Pal:
I want you to be at Sullivan's place, in Little Rock, next Wednesday night, at nine o'clock. I want you to wind up some little matters for me. And, also, I want to make you a present of my kit of tools. I know you'll be glad to get them—you couldn't duplicate the lot for a thousand dollars. Say, Billy, I've quit the old business—a year ago. I've got a nice store. I'm making an honest living, and I'm going to marry the finest girl on earth two weeks from now. It's the only life, Billy—the straight one. I wouldn't touch a dollar of another man's money now for a million. After I get married I'm going to sell out and go West, where there won't be so much danger of having old scores brought up against me. I tell you, Billy, she's an angel. She believes in me; and I wouldn't do another crooked thing for the whole world. Be sure to be at Sully's, for I must see you. I'll bring along the tools with me.

Your old friend,
Jimmy.

On the Monday night after Jimmy wrote this letter, Ben Price jogged unobtrusively into Elmore in a livery buggy. He lounged about town in his quiet way until he found out what he wanted to know. From the drug-store across the street from Spencer's shoe-store he got a good look at Ralph D. Spencer.

Lauren and Devin like shopping at the mall. But sometimes they can be hard to please.

"Lauren, look at those! (holding up earrings next to her ears)
Devin sighed, "I like this better.'' (pointing to earrings on a counter farther away)
"Maybe I don't want earrings at all." said Lauren. "What about these?'' (waving her arm in the air to display a bracelet)
"No," said Devin. "Now, these is perfect!" (pointing to a belt hanging on the far wall)
"Devin, look at those. (Ponting to the price tag on the belt) won't make my mom very happy," said Devin.
"Come on," replied Lauren. "Let's come back again tomorrow!"

Write more dialogue about Lauren and Devin's trip to the mall the next day. be sure to use all four demonstrative pronouns: this, that, these, and those.

Read this excerpt from The Great Fire.

Schaffer's first signal went out at 9:30. Several minutes later, Schaffer realized his mistake and ordered Box 319 struck. This was still seven blocks away from the O'Learys', but close enough that firefighters could see the flames and alter their course. Unfortunately, Schaffer's young assistant, William J. Brown, stubbornly refused to strike Box 319, saying he was afraid it would confuse the situation. Brown was so stubborn about his decision that even after the fire he was able to write arrogantly in a letter that "I am still standing the watch that burned Chicago."

These errors had two fatal consequences. The most obvious was that a number of engines and dozens of firefighters were sent on a wild-goose chase and did not get to the fire for many minutes. More critical is that it kept fire companies located near De Koven Street in their stations. Several had seen the eerie, dancing glow beyond the rooftops near them and, even without official notice from Schaffer, prepared to respond. When they heard Box 342 rung, however, they assumed the fire was out of their territory and unhitched the horses. Only two fire companies were not fooled by the misleading alarm.

How does the structure of this excerpt illustrate the central idea that a series of individual mistakes contributed to the spread of the blaze?

A. by comparing and contrasting different people’s decisions and abilities
B. by comparing and contrasting the most effective firefighting techniques
C. by clearly explaining the reasons for the misleading alarm and its impact
D. by clearly explaining the reasons the fire started and the way it was put out
