Clara's configuration:

To determine whether a relationship is proportionate, perform the following tests:                  

Yes, there seems to be a proportional relationship. Hector's set-up is as follows:              

The number of yellow flowers always out-numbers the number of white blooms by a factor of 2. As a result, the relationship could be modeled as follows;            

As a result, the relationship is not proportionate.

Golden Days

by Lizzie Lawson

There are days of summer sunshine,
Of warm and sunny weather,
When the hedge is full of hawthorn
And hills are glad with heather.

There are days of silent sadness,
Of frost, and snow, and rain,
When we fear that summer's gladness
Will never come again.

And now our songs are minor key,
And now in merry tune;
The windward side will change to lee,
And January to June.

Day and night the sun is shining,
Though he may hide his head;
Each cloud has a silver lining,
The flowers are asleep not dead.

Every day may have its playtime
Made bright by cheerful lays;
And life be one long Maytime,
A year of golden days.

What are poems?

Poems which are also called verse are a form of literature that uses aesthetic and often rhythmic qualities of language such as phonaesthetics, sound symbolism, and metre to evoke meanings in addition to, or place of, a prosaic ostensible meaning. A poem is a literary composition, written by a poet, using this principle.

Poetry has a long and varied history, evolving differentially across the globe. It dates back at least to prehistoric times with hunting poetry in Africa and to panegyric and elegiac court poetry of the empires of the Nile, Niger, and Volta River valleys. Some of the earliest written poetry in Africa occurs among the Pyramid Texts written during the 25th century BCE.

The earliest surviving Western Asian epic poetry, the Epic of Gilgamesh, was written in Sumerian.

What does "false belief" mean i looked it up and it was confusing

Answers

Answer:

False is something that isn't true, and a belief is something you believe. So a false belief means you believe something that isn't true.

False is saying something isn’t true, belief is where someone believes in something. So it could be that someone thinks that a belief is wrong, or not true.

The trouble with option 2 was that the venting might push the fuel to an unstable condition. Or, another possible outcome of the “burping”: what if the landing gear hadn’t deployed correctly? Could any movement, or any resulting burst—no matter how small—tip the LM over? Many a voice in the debate thought the safest option was to abort—now! But that opinion was quickly overruled by the Grumman and NASA leadership (who were confident of the landing gear), and the consensus of the leaders was that it would be safe to gently, gently burp the engine.

      I calmly woke up thinking everything was great! The sun was shining, birds chirping. I went downstairs to eat breakfast before I got ready for school. I saw my mother and said hello... but she replied "Where are you honey?". I hastily replied "I'm right here mom" but she still did not see me. I rushed to the bathroom and realized "I WAS INVISIBLE!" I was scared and nervous at first but then I realized.... "I don't have to go to school!!" I was very excited about that so I walked to the ice cream truck and got ice cream for free! I was thinking of what to do and realized "I can go to school and get all of the drama and secrets". That's when I saw the school bus taking people to school. But then again I was still in my pajamas... but nobody could see me I was invisible! I got on the bus and we got to school much faster than it normally takes. I had to remember  to be very quiet although I was invisible everyone could still hear me! I walked inside of my school and saw my best friends! I wanted to go say hello to them but instead just walked up and listened. They were talking about me! I heard one of them say "How should we arrange this" and then the other said "Hmm not sure but she is going to be so surprised" I started to think what if they are going to embarrass me in front of everyone or maybe something even worse! I started getting very nervous. I left school quickly and saw the time. School was almost over! I was wondering where all the time went but then remembered waking up and my friends not being there. I must have passed out from being so nervous! I went into my all of my classrooms and grabbed copies of the work so i could do my work and bring it in tomorrow. I went home and sat down. "Time to get this work done" I said to myself. I finished the first assignment but then I got distracted and next thing I know i'm sleeping and it is 7 in the morning. "Wow I fell asleep not finishing my work.. oh well" I shrugged. I jolted out of my seat "Maybe i'm not invisible!" I saw that I wasn't invisible! I did enjoy being invisible but I like being able to hang out with my friends and family more.

Write a thesis statement in response to the following prompt.

Prompt: Read the letter to the editor "I, Too, Have a Dream." How does the writer use structure and language to persuade her readers and support her feelings about immigration?

Dear Editor,

I have never taken the time to write a letter to the editor, but something happened that lit a fire in me. Last week, as my best friend Areliss and I headed to class, a group of college protesters blocked our path. Their signs read "GO HOME" and "ILLEGALS LEAVE." They shouted, "Send them home!" These protesters couldn't have known what Areliss felt as they shouted and waved pamphlets in our faces like tattered flags. But, I know their words were bullets to Areliss's heart. I wanted to fire back to the protestors: Where are your ancestors from?

Areliss came to the United States illegally, but she didn't do it intentionally. She was a baby. Her parents, seeking a better life, failed to follow the established immigration procedure, and they slipped into our country undetected. Once here, they raised Areliss, who would grow up never knowing any other home but America.

Under DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals), Areliss has been granted the temporary opportunity to remain here while she completes her college education. DACA ensures, at least for a while, that she will not be deported to a country she has never visited in her entire life.

The term "DREAMers" refers to an act that would have protected these immigrant children if they attended college or served in the military. The DREAM Act did not pass, but its name has remained. DACA recipients have a dream: they dream that their lifelong contribution to the United States will one day be recognized, and they will be permitted to stay in the country they have always called home.

Now, DACA is ending. Those who oppose DACA say it encourages illegal activity, weakens our borders, and goes against the Constitution. I understand their concerns. In an era of heightened security, we must do our utmost to keep this great nation safe. That includes establishing a healthy monitoring system for immigration.

But, those who oppose DACA, who wield protest signs and who want to build walls, have never felt the dreaded doom of deportation. They forget that our long and colorful history has been built by many immigrants—including the immigrants who fought for and founded our country. They forget that Lady Liberty stands as a beacon, asking for the tired, the poor, and the huddled masses yearning to breathe free. We have a responsibility to them.

To send DREAMers away is to deny that responsibility. Programs like DACA exist to keep the American dream alive.

Yes, Areliss is a DREAMer. But I, too, have a dream. My dream is that DACA will be reinstated. My dream is that Areliss will be invited to stay in the country she has known as home since she was a baby and live out her dreams in the country she loves.

Sincerely,

Brittany Taylor

1. Gets a fire going

The first thing Brian did to "restart" after the devastation of the tornado was to get a fire going. Thus, option (a) is correct.

What is restart?

When you restart an application, it "reloads" the program. When you restart a computer, the operating system is "booted." The word "restart" can be both a noun and a verb. The novel is written in various first person points of view, which is a wonderful option because it allows the reader to understand what the various characters are thinking and experiencing.

According to the statement, the meaning of the term "restart" is based on what Brian did to "restart" after the tornado's destruction, which was to start a fire. High winds can kill or damage individuals by tossing them down the ground or dumping them from perilous heights.
