This sentence completes the story by explaining why Jane went quiet and Paul's response makes sense as a solution to the problem.

The author includes the detail that "he never thought about her" to show that Jim has not noticed Liz Coates until now. This implies that he has become aware of her and may even be developing feelings for her, as indicated by the text.

Let's start by analyzing the definition of the ◘ operation:

x ◘ y = 2x - 3y + 1

We are asked to find the value of 4 ◘ 3. To do this, we can substitute x = 4 and y = 3 into the definition:

4 ◘ 3 = 2(4) - 3(3) + 1
= 8 - 9 + 1
= -1 + 1
= 0

So, the value of 4 ◘ 3 is:

0

Based on the passage, Jim Gilmore is described as "short and dark with big mustaches and big hands". This description is repeated twice in the passage, once in the first paragraph and again in the third paragraph. Therefore, the correct answer is:

B) Short and dark with a big mustache and big hands

_______________________________________ B

The paragraphs primarily serve to demonstrate two peoples' feelings toward each other. The passage describes Jim's appreciation for Liz's cleanliness, neatness, and jolly face, while Liz's feelings for Jim are revealed through her observations of his appearance and behavior. The paragraphs focus on the development of their relationship and the emotions involved.

Answer: B) Juxtapose two peoples' sentiments

Let's break down the problem step by step!

1. John's distance to travel is 60 miles.
2. His steady speed is 30 miles per hour.

To find the time it takes John to reach the park, we can use the formula:

Time = Distance / Speed

In this case, the distance is 60 miles, and the speed is 30 miles per hour.

Time = 60 miles / 30 mph

To simplify this expression, we can divide 60 by 30, which gives us:

Time = 2 hours

Therefore, it will take John 2 hours to reach the park.

----------------

Correct answer: 2 hours

From statement 5, we know the grandmother has the gold doubloon and is either in Denmark or Canada. Since she is not in Egypt (otherwise she wouldn't be in either Denmark or Canada), and not in Britain (otherwise the broken sword would be with her, not in Britain), she must be in either Denmark or Canada.

From statement 2, we know the son is not in Denmark. This means the son must be in either Britain, Canada, or Mexico. Since the grandmother is either in Denmark or Canada, the son cannot be in Canada (grandmother would be in Denmark, which is not possible). Therefore, the son must be in Britain or Mexico.

Now, from statement 4, we know the mother has the silver watch but isn't in Mexico. This means the mother must be in either Britain, Canada, or Egypt.

Since the son is either in Britain or Mexico, and the mother is not in Mexico, the mother must be in either Britain or Canada.

If the grandmother is in Denmark, then the mother must be in Britain (as the son is also in Britain).

Therefore, the Mother is in Britain.

Here is the rearranged sequence of events:

▲. Asim bought a ring with something special in mind.
★. Asim proposed to Meriem during a romantic dinner.
●. Asim and Meriem had a beautiful ceremony surrounded by friends and family.
◆. The newlyweds arrived at the airport to start their honeymoon.

This order makes sense because Asim had to buy the ring before proposing to Meriem, and they had to get married before going on their honeymoon.

Let's break down the problem step by step!

Let the number of verses the 7th student wrote be equal to the total number of verses, T. We know that the total number of verses is the sum of the number of verses, n, and twice the class rank.

T = n + 2(7)

Since the 7th student wrote 20 verses, we can set up the equation:

20 = n + 2(7)

Now, let's simplify the equation:

20 = n + 14

Subtract 14 from both sides:

6 = n

Therefore, the value of n is 6.

n = 6

Let's break it down step by step!

From the first statement, "All employees of Duluth Paper received a bonus this year", we know that every employee of Duluth Paper received a bonus.

From the second statement, "Andrés did not receive a bonus this year", we know that Andrés is not among the employees who received a bonus.

Now, since "All employees of Duluth Paper received a bonus this year" is true, we know that there is no employee who did not receive a bonus. Therefore, the correct answer is:

A) Not all employees of Duluth Paper received a bonus this year

This statement must also be true because it is the negation of the first statement, and the first statement is true.

Let's start by analyzing the problem. We know that the perimeter of the garden is 60 feet, and that the length is four times the width. This means we can write an equation for the perimeter:

2(length) + 2(width) = 60

We can simplify this equation by substituting "length" with "4*width":

2(4*width) + 2(width) = 60

Now we can combine like terms:

8*width + 2*width = 60

Combine the constants:

10*width = 60

Divide both sides by 10:

width = 6

The width of the garden is 6 feet.

______

Width: 6 feet

The author's repetitive use of "She liked it" serves to emphasize the... C) closeness with which one person studies another

The phrase "She liked it" is repeated several times in the passage to describe Liz's observations about Jim. Each time, it emphasizes her attention to detail and her growing affection for him. The use of this phrase creates a sense of intimacy and closeness between Liz and Jim, implying that she is studying him closely and finding things to appreciate about him.

Let's break down the problem into smaller parts. We need to find integers between 99 and 200 that have exactly one duplicate digit. We can start by analyzing the possible cases:

1. If the hundreds' place digit is 1, the only possible duplicate digit is 1, and the ones' place digit can be any number from 0 to 9, except for 1. This gives us 8 possible integers: 111, 121, ..., 191.
2. If the hundreds' place digit is 2, the possible duplicate digits are 2 and 0, and the ones' place digit can be any number from 0 to 9, except for 2 and 0. This gives us 7 possible integers: 202, 212, ..., 292.
3. If the hundreds' place digit is 3, the possible duplicate digits are 3 and 0, and the ones' place digit can be any number from 0 to 9, except for 3 and 0. This gives us 7 possible integers: 303, 313, ..., 393.
4. If the hundreds' place digit is 4, the possible duplicate digits are 4 and 0, and the ones' place digit can be any number from 0 to 9, except for 4 and 0. This gives us 7 possible integers: 404, 414, ..., 494.
5. If the hundreds' place digit is 5, the possible duplicate digits are 5 and 0, and the ones' place digit can be any number from 0 to 9, except for 5 and 0. This gives us 7 possible integers: 505, 515, ..., 595.
6. If the hundreds' place digit is 6, the possible duplicate digits are 6 and 0, and the ones' place digit can be any number from 0 to 9, except for 6 and 0. This gives us 7 possible integers: 606, 616, ..., 696.
7. If the hundreds' place digit is 7, the possible duplicate digits are 7 and 0, and the ones' place digit can be any number from 0 to 9, except for 7 and 0. This gives us 7 possible integers: 707, 717, ..., 797.
8. If the hundreds' place digit is 8, the possible duplicate digits are 8 and 0, and the ones' place digit can be any number from 0 to 9, except for 8 and 0. This gives us 7 possible integers: 808, 818, ..., 898.
9. If the hundreds' place digit is 9, the possible duplicate digits are 9 and 0, and the ones' place digit can be any number from 0 to 9, except for 9 and 0. This gives us 7 possible integers: 909, 919, ..., 999.

We can see that there are 8 possible integers for each of the hundreds' place digits 1 to 8, and 7 possible integers for the hundreds' place digit 9. Therefore, the total number of integers greater than 99 and less than 200 with exactly one duplicate digit is:

8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 7 = 72

Here is the concise representation of the correct answer:

72

Let's break down the statements and analyze the situation:

* "All of Lisa's sisters can bake" means that every person who is a sister of Lisa is capable of baking.

Now, let's examine each option:

* (A) "If Jane cannot bake, then she is not Lisa's sister": This option is possible. If Jane cannot bake, then she is not Lisa's sister, because Lisa's sisters all can bake.
* (B) "If Sarah can bake, then she is not Lisa's sister": This option is not possible. We cannot conclude that Sarah is not Lisa's sister just because she can bake. There might be other sisters who also bake.
* (C) "If Mary can bake, then she is Lisa's sister": This option is not possible. We cannot conclude that Mary is Lisa's sister just because she can bake. We need more information to determine if Mary is Lisa's sister.
* (D) "If Emma is not Lisa's sister, then she cannot bake": This option is not possible. If Emma is not Lisa's sister, we cannot conclude that she cannot bake. She might be a friend or acquaintance who also can bake.
* (E) "None of these": This option is the correct answer. None of the above options logically follow from the initial statement.

New line and the letter corresponding to the correct answer:

E

From the statements, we know that all members of the chess team are also members of the robotics club, but no members of the basketball team are members of the chess team.

Let's analyze the options:

(A) If Izak is in the robotics club, then he is not on the basketball team: Possible. Since all members of the chess team are in the robotics club, and no members of the basketball team are in the chess team, Izak could be in the robotics club but not on the basketball team.

(B) If Jerry is in the robotics club, then he is on the chess team: Not possible. If Jerry is in the robotics club, it doesn't necessarily mean he's on the chess team, since there could be other members of the robotics club who aren't on the chess team.

(C) If Lisa is on the basketball team, then she is not in the robotics club: Possible. Since no members of the basketball team are in the chess team, and all members of the chess team are in the robotics club, if Lisa is on the basketball team, it's likely she's not in the robotics club.

(D) If Sanjit is on the chess team, then he is on the basketball team: Not possible. This contradicts the statement that no members of the basketball team are in the chess team.

(E) If Seong-Jin is not in the robotics club, then he is not on the chess team: Possible. This is implied by the first statement, which says all members of the chess team are in the robotics club. If Seong-Jin is not in the robotics club, it's likely he's not on the chess team.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

E) If Seong-Jin is not in the robotics club, then he is not on the chess team

Let's break down the information step by step!

From statement 2, we know the son is not in Denmark and doesn't have the gold doubloon or silver watch. Since the grandmother has the gold doubloon (statement 5), the son cannot be the one in Denmark or Canada.

From statement 4, we know the mother has the silver watch but isn't in Mexico. Since the grandmother has the gold doubloon, the mother cannot be in Mexico either.

From statement 3, we know the family member in Egypt has the family tree. This can only be the grandmother, as she is the only one who has a connection to the gold doubloon.

Since the grandmother is either in Denmark or Canada, and is not in Mexico, she must be in either Denmark or Canada. Let's assume she is in Canada (we'll come back to this later).

From statement 1, we know the person in Britain has the broken sword. This can only be the father or mother.

Since the mother has the silver watch (statement 4), the father must be the one with the broken sword in Britain.

Now, let's look at the daughter. If she has the oceanic map, she must be in the country where the ocean is present (Mexico, Canada, or Denmark). We know the grandmother is not in Mexico, and the son is not in Denmark, so the daughter must be in either Canada or Mexico.

Since the grandmother is in either Denmark or Canada, and we assumed she is in Canada, the daughter must be in Mexico.

Answer:

The daughter is in Mexico.
