Answer:

She believes that children must obey their parents at all times. These differences lead to arguments between the mother and daughter over many years.

"One example of his incredible skill is when he found out how to kill the 12 headed hydra that grew 2 more heads for every head chopped off. He got his friend to hold torches to the neck of every head he chopped off to keep the head from growing back. Then after he finished that, he put the hydra under a huge and heavy rock. This prevented it from harming any other human and he completed his task. Another example of this is how he completed cleaning the infinite stalls from livestock and cattle manure as one of his tasks. He knew he could never do it by cleaning up a pile at a time, so he flushed the stalls out by using the river and completed this task."
I would really appreciate it : )
Answer: An example of his incredible skill is when he found how to defeat the 12 headed hydra, which grew 2 new heads for every one that's chopped off. Holding torches over the neck of every head he chopped off kept them from growing back. When the hydra was no longer a threat, Hercules put it under a huge, heavy rock, preventing it from terrorizing the people again and also completing his task. Another example is when Hercules cleaned the livestock stalls and cattle manure. He knew he could never do it by cleaning one pile at a time, so he used the river to flush out the stalls instead.

Explanation:
The caption on page 22 says "these stories were often more entertaining than accurate." In other words, travelers sometimes A.Told stories that were not funny, not scary B.Told confusing stories C.Exaggerated or made things up to make their stories more interesting D.Left interesting details out of their stories
Answer:
I believe that means travelers sometimes:
C. Exaggerated or made things up to make their stories more interesting.
Explanation:
Let's break the quote down and analyze it:
- these stories were often more entertaining --> for something to be entertaining, it must be interesting enough to keep people engaged.
- than accurate --> accuracy in this case refers to providing real, factual details about events.
If a story is more entertaining than it is accurate, that means the speaker or writer is focusing on making it interesting instead of giving a factual and realistic account of what happened. In other words, a traveler may very well exaggerate or make things up for the sake of entertainment, leaving accuracy behind. That is why letter C is the best option.
Dad decided last Sunday that we should all go on a camping trip. He read an article in the Sunday paper about camping and how it “brings families together under the canopy of nature.” “Overrated,” I joked. “What about the canopy of television or the canopy of restaurant food?” “This will be good for us,” Dad said, sliding the magazine across the coffee table. “Let’s go next weekend." I shot a quick look over at my little brother, Paul. He gave me a slow eyebrow raise which meant, “This will probably not go off completely as planned.” My smile back said, "But it will surely be fun." I started to think back. Once Dad decided we should all learn how to canoe. We borrowed two canoes from our friends, hoisted them on the van and drove for three hours to a secluded lake in Virginia. Alone in the middle of nowhere, we discovered that we had forgotten the paddles. Paul and I got in a canoe with Dad and our two younger sisters got in a canoe with Mom. We floated aimlessly around the lake for hours. Then we all jumped in with our life jackets on. We pushed the canoes back to shore. It was a fantastic trip. Another time, Dad decided we should all learn how to ski. All of us hate the cold so we spent the weekend huddled by the fire, drinking hot cocoa in the ski lodge and playing board games. It was great. We had a blast. When I stopped daydreaming, Mom was saying, “Sweetheart, we don’t have a tent.” “We don’t need one!” Dad said happily. “We’ll take all the seats out the van when we get to the campsite and put in an air mattress.” I don't know what the punch line will be on this excursion, but I am sure with Mom, Dad and the four of us kids scrunched in a van at some national park, we are bound to have a good time.

what is probably the real reason that pollard let rosemont get so close in seabiscuit
It's important to note that the book "Seabiscuit: An American Legend" by Laura Hillenbrand and the subsequent movie adaptation are works of historical non-fiction and creative interpretation.
What is probably the real reason that pollard let rosemont get so close in seabiscuit ?However, based on historical records and interviews with people who knew Charles Howard and Tom Smith (Seabiscuit's owner and trainer, respectively), it's possible that Pollard allowed Rosemont to get close to Seabiscuit during a race for strategic reasons.
Pollard was known to be a skilled jockey who often used unconventional tactics to win races, and he may have intentionally let Rosemont get close to Seabiscuit to tire out Rosemont's jockey, George Woolf, or to make Woolf think he had a chance of winning before making a final burst of speed to cross the finish line first.
Additionally, Pollard had a strong connection to Seabiscuit and may have been trying to challenge the horse to run faster or test its limits. As the book and movie depict, Seabiscuit was an underdog who often performed better when faced with a challenge, so Pollard's decision to let Rosemont get close could have been an attempt to motivate Seabiscuit to perform at its best.
so it's difficult to determine the true motivations of the real-life characters involved.

A) Verify that your inference is correct
B) Make sure your inference is relevant
C) change your conclusion to fit the new facts
D) make other inferences about the graph
Answer: I am pretty sure it's A.
Explanation: I tried B and it was wrong. The feedback was about how you have to make sure it's correct.
Once you’ve made an inference about a graph, you should verify that your inference before you use it to support your conclusion that your inference is correct. Therefore option A is correct.
What is a Graph?A graph is a structure that resembles a set of items in mathematics, more especially in graph theory, in which certain pairings of objects are conceptually "connected." The items are represented by mathematical abstractions known as vertices, and each pair of connected vertices is referred to as an edge.
The smallest graph eccentricity of any graph vertex defines a graph's radius. Thus, the radius of a disconnected graph is limitless (West 2000, p. 71).
Graphs present information to you as a picture or visual representation. This knowledge is referred to as "data." Graphs come in a wide variety of forms. You may compare various data sets using bar graphs. Little dots are used in line graphs together with a line to depict the data.
