Wider Rear tires offer better shock absorption and cornering traction. Friction at the front wheel in a front-wheel-driven car is in the direction of motion. Designing car tires involves a trade-off between traction and overall performance.

Wider Rear tires provide better shock absorption and cornering traction due to increased stability and surface contact with the road.

When looking at friction in a front-wheel-driven car, (c) friction at the front wheel is in the direction of motion.

In designing car tires, there is often a trade-off between high traction in specific conditions and overall tire performance.

Answer:

Located above 5,000 ft and below 10,200 ft.

♦At least 8.25 miles North of Santa Fe, New Mexico

♦Not in grave yard

♦Not in out house…..not associated with a structure

♦Not in a mine, tunnel, or cave

♦Where warm waters halt is not a dam.

♦Chest and contents weigh 42lbs. (Fenn said 44lbs. in one email, but has said 42 several other times)

♦Chest is 10x10x5 inches and made of Bronze

♦Forrest published a map in his book Too Far To Walk and told us the chest is hidden somewhere on that map

♦The treasure is in one of 4 states: Montana, Wyoming, Colorado or New Mexico

♦“Begin it where warm waters halt” is the first clue

Subjective information:

♦Don’t go where an eighty year old man couldn’t go

♦Not associated with a structure……what does “associated” mean?

Def: Connect (something) with something else because they occur together or one produces another Does this rule out it being in town? Could it be in a front yard, park, Memorial, etc. etc.; as long as it is not in a structure?

♦Seasonal search: Since it’s above 5,000 ft. just about all of the search area will be impacted by some snow. As the elevation increases the “search season” decreases.

♦ There are nine clues in the poem.

♦ Start at beginning

Concerning the “at least 8.25 miles north of Santa Fe” clue that Forrest gave us.

The clue was originally handed out in a comment Forrest made on a story Richard Saunier wrote for his blog “Mountain Walk”. The date was April 16, 2012 when Richard published his story titled: Forrest Fenn: Land Surveyor in which Richard lays out his theory that Forrest has given us clues as to where he has hidden the chest in the form of metes and bounds. The next day, April 17th Forrest left a comment on Richard’s blog that reads in its entirety the following:

“Since Richard mentioned the olden days lets harken to 1620 when universal land measures first became law in England and America. As you rode your horse into town you had to pass 80 telephone poles in order to reach a mile because they were 1 chain apart, or 66 feet. And each chain had 100 links, if you wanted to break it down further. Road rights-of-way also were 1 chain wide. And 80 square chains made a square mile, or 640 acres – and that was 1 section of land.

But if you’d rather count fence posts you had to pass 320 in order to reach a mile because they were a rod apart, or 16.5 feet. And since everyone knew that an acre was 10 square chains (43,560 square feet) it was easy to tell how many acres were in your neighbor’s farm.

Some aspects of those measures are still in use today in the horse racing business because a furlong is 10 chains in length, or 660 feet. You should feel smarter now because that’s so easy.

If you want to apply those important figures into the thrill of the chase I will give you an additional clue. The Treasure chest full of gold and precious jewels is more than 66,000 links north of Santa Fe.”

After Forrest left that comment others did the math

100 links = 1 chain

66,000 links = 660 chains (66,000 ÷ 100)

1 chain = 66 feet

660 chains = 43560 feet (660 x 66) = 8.25 miles

Explanation:

1. Illogical

We can't conclude that Jazmin is from Junior's Town just by the fact she owns a bike.  Because it doesn't say that ONLY people from Junior's Town own a bike. There must be someone else outside Junior's Town, in the world, that owns a bike. However, if she was from Junior's town, we could conclude she owns a bike.

2. Logical

The syllogism is true this time.  Brandon congratulates every one of his friends when they get perfect scores.  Kenneth is Brandon's friend and he got a perfect score.  So, Brandon congratulated his friend for his perfect score.  That doesn't mean that Brandon doesn't congratulate his friends on other occasions.

3. Logical

Zero brothers of Monica drive a car.  That means if you're a brother of her,you have 0 chances of driving a car at this moment.  Jensen is a brother of Monica, so he cannot drive a car.

4. Illogical

The first statement says MANY.  Because of that, you cannot say the car accident was absolutely caused by drunk driving, because there are other causes for accidents, otherwise ALL accidents would be caused by drunk driving.  You could say it "could have been caused by drunk driving" .  Plus technically, it's not sure the accident was a road accident, could have taken place in a parking.

5. Logical

The first statement includes an absolute component (nightly, meaning every night, ALL nights, etc).  Then the second statement is related to the first one (8:30 PM), and the conclusion makes sense.

6. Illogical

The statements only relate Damian to Illac and Damian to Red.  With the information provided, there's no way to make a conclusion for the relation between Iliac and Red.  For example, Damian could weight 50 kg, Illac could weight 40 kg and Red 30 kg, and the statements would be true.  But they would also be true if Illac was 30 kg and Red 40 kg.  Yet, the conclusion would be different.

7. Illogical

There's nothing that says that Friday is a special occasion.  If the first statement would have said "Students wear their class shirts on special occasions or on Fridays" or if the second statement would have said "Today is a special occasion, it's Friday", then yes it would have been true.  But not as is.

8. Illogical

Since the first statement is using SOME... there's rarely a definitive conclusion you can make out of it... since it's not an absolute (ALL, NONE, ALWAYS, NEVER, etc).  For the conclusion to be true, the first statement would have been something like "ONLY doctors like mainstream jazz", but then... what about mainstream jazz musician?  They're all doctors too?

9. Logical

The first statement lists an absolute fact (ONLY), and the second statement is directly related to it (both are Mondays).  So, the conclusion makes sense.

I would say C) "'Oh, my poor Mathilde! But mine was imitation. It was worth at the very most five hundred francs! …'" (Paragraph 14) is the best option.

Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

This sentece gives the text an element of surprise because it causes a radical twist in the plot that the reader did not foresee.

By revealing that the original necklace was an imitation, the speaker is implying that all of Mathilde's hard work was in vain, surprising both the characters of the story and the readers.

Answer:

B. The British Empire was an important part of the British identity.

Explanation:

You didn't put the excerpt but none of the others were true.

The excerpt teaches that the British Empire was an important part of the British identity. So, option B is correct.

From the provided information, it can be deduced that the excerpt teaches readers that the British Empire was an important part of British cultural history. It showcases the impact of British imperialism in South Asia, particularly its influence on India's trade, administration, language, culture, and religious affairs. The British Empire, through the British East India Company, exploited India's resources, playing a significant role in shaping the region's economy and societal structure.

The establishment of British rule led to westernization, changes in traditional arts and architecture, the introduction of a new education system for the upper castes, and the creation of an extensive rail transportation system. The British Empire was, therefore, integral to the development of modern India, leaving lasting impacts on its cultural and economic landscapes.

Answer:

1. Changes in the economic order

2. New social arrangements based on people work and not in the church or the family

3. Elaboration of the individual

4. Shift from an aristocratic order to a capitalist system

5. The rise of print culture

6. The first copyright legislation

7.  Increased of industrialization

Explanation:

The popularity of novels in the 18th century was due to increased literacy rates, improved standards of living from the Industrial Revolution, wider accessibility of books via the printing press, and evolving roles of women who became a significant readership. Novels offered entertainment and reflection on human experiences, themes that resonated widely.

The rise in the popularity of novels during the eighteenth century, such as Daniel Defoe's The Life and Adventures of Robinson Crusoe, can be attributed to several key societal changes. One significant factor was the rise in literacy rates, brought about by improvements in public education and the effects of the Industrial Revolution, which also led to better standards of living. Furthermore, the availability and affordability of printed materials expanded due to the widespread use of the printing press. This made novels more accessible to a broader section of the public, including the burgeoning middle class who could purchase books. Additionally, women's roles in society began to evolve, with increasing emphasis on their education and literacy leading to greater consumer demand among female readers. Such changes positioned novels as a prevalent form of entertainment and reflection on human experiences, as they began to explore themes like freedom, moral instruction, and the human condition, all of which resonated with the readers of the time.Another factor that contributed to the novels' broad appeal was their distribution through circular libraries and their availability as affordable abridgements, which widened their readership. Amidst the global and American contexts, the novel transcended its status as merely a literary form. It became a vehicle for influencing and mirroring societal values and the nation's moral compass, thus establishing an enduring connection with its audience. Novels like Robinson Crusoe, with universal themes such as loneliness and survival, captured the imaginations and the relatable aspirations of readers across various social strata.

The term "thane" means a free man who is in service to a medieval lord, often involving holding and managing lands in exchange for military service and loyalty. Thanes were part of the feudal hierarchy and held a noble status beneath their respective lords or kings. They could become wealthy and powerful figures within their local areas, bound by oaths of fealty to ensure their service.

The word "thane" in the context of medieval history and social hierarchy refers to a free man who is in service to a medieval lord. Being a thane often involved holding lands granted by the lord or king, and in return, the thane would provide military service or advice. This relationship was a fundamental aspect of the feudal system, which dominated European social and economic structures during the Middle Ages. Thanes were typically noble and held significant status within the feudal hierarchy, directly beneath the lord or king they served.

Moreover, the thane could accumulate wealth and additional lands, becoming a more powerful figure in the feudal system. The duties and status of a thane could vary, but generally, they were recognized as important local leaders and landowners, offering protection and management of their holdings. As part of their role, they were often bound by oaths of fealty to their liege lord, ensuring loyalty and service, particularly in times of conflict.

Answer:

The poster directly reminds civilians how they can contribute to the war effort, but the speech does not.

Explanation:

As we can see, the poster reads "Lend a hand with the potato harvest at a farming holiday camp." This clearly indicates how civilians can contribute to the war effort. The excerpt says nothing of the kind.

Answer:

The poster focuses on the effort of sending food abroad, but the speech does not.

Explanation:

This poster shows how hard people had to work to comply with Franklin Roosevelt's policy of Government Endorsed Gardening, under which he constantly remarked on the importance of food supplying as a resource to win the war. He considered important for people to domestically grow food and collaborate at farming holiday camps.

So, regarding his speech, it is understood that he took the poster in question as criticism, and he limited himself to explain that patriotism wins over selfishness in America, alleging that most people know what the food's destination is. He did not mention anything about people's hard work.

Answer:Vote Yourself a Farm and Horses” – Abraham Lincoln, 1860

Explanation:

answer is A. just took test

Answer: "Vote Yourself a Farm and Horses"

Explanation: The presidential campaign slogan that best demonstrates an unwarranted extrapolation is "Vote Yourself a Farm and Horses". This is Abraham Lincoln's campaign slogan when he ran for president representing the Republican Party in 1860. This would grant a free plot of land to anyone who wanted to settle in the West. Unwarranted extrapolation is making huge predictions of the future with a few small facts.

The writer uses empirical evidence by including specific data about student debt and loans.

The writer uses empirical evidence by stating the exact amount of debt that his daughter owes.

The writer uses anecdotal evidence by sharing a personal connection to the student debt problem.

The writer uses empirical evidence by citing the total student debt and the number of Americans owing student loans, empirical evidence with the specific amount of his daughter's debt, and logical evidence about the workforce's decreased paychecks. Anecdotal evidence is also presented with the writer's personal connection to the problem.

The writer reinforces their claim with several types of evidence to emphasize the scale of the student debt problem. Firstly, empirical evidence is used by stating quantifiable data that there is over $1 trillion in collective student debt and that 44 million Americans are in debt from student loans. This data underscores the vastness of the issue. Additionally, the writer uses empirical evidence by providing the specific debt amount of $50,000 for his daughter, personalizing the issue, and demonstrating the significant financial burden on individuals. Furthermore, the writer uses logical evidence to infer that new workforce entrants will have less income due to student loan repayments, effectively showing the long-term financial implications on young adults.

The writer also utilizes anecdotal evidence by bringing a personal element into the discussion, mentioning his role in helping his daughter with her student loan. While not explicitly stated in the options given, the personal connection gives a human face to the abstract figures, lending credibility and emotional weight to the argument. Lastly, it's important to clarify that discussing how his daughter's debt compares to his own would be another example of anecdotal evidence, but this is not mentioned in the writer’s original claim. By combining these different forms of evidence, the writer effectively supports their claim about the severity of the student loan issue and the need for government intervention.

Journalistic decisions that would violate the Society of Professional Journalists' Code of Ethics include reporting on personal matters without objectivity or transparency, and failing to disclose personal relationships such as a reporter writing about a spouse's company. Upholding public interest, accuracy, and fairness are paramount.

According to the Code of Ethics set by the Society of Professional Journalists, certain decisions would indeed be considered unethical. Journalists are expected to uphold objectivity, fairness, and transparency in their reporting, while avoiding conflicts of interest. Two specific decisions that would violate these ethical standards are:

A journalist reporting on a series of robberies that occurred in his own neighborhood may not necessarily violate the code, unless the journalist's work is compromised by personal biases or if the report could harm his neighbors' reputations without serving a significant public interest.

However, a reporter writing a story about his wife's company without revealing their relationship is a direct violation as it represents a clear conflict of interest and compromises the journalist's objectivity and transparency required by the code.

Both of these scenarios pose a threat to the trustworthiness and integrity of the journalistic work. The latter one, especially, disregards the ethical obligations of providing unbiased information and maintaining the larger public interest above personal or financial interests.

Final answer:

The inquiry about 'The Pale Mare' story map is explored through various artistic and narrative pieces focusing on horses, revealing their significant role in human stories, depicted in diverse emotional states and situations.

Explanation:

The question asks for a story map of the tale referred to as "The Pale Mare," which can be interpreted through various artistic representations and narratives that involve horses. In the described art pieces, horses are central figures and are depicted in various contexts and emotional states that could form the basis of the "Pale Mare" story. From the energetic and symbolic blue horse in Franz Marc's painting revealing color symbolism to the dramatic scenes of centaurs battling wild cats, and the depiction of a mare being milked in ancient art, each element offers a unique perspective on how horses have been revered, mythologized, and integrated into human stories across cultures and time periods. The mention of a specific white horse leading a group of riders adds an element of suspense and narrative intrigue, possibly hinting at a deeper storyline of pursuit, conflict, and survival, echoed in the fearful yet hopeful flight described. Additionally, the description of horses at dawn full of energy, juxtaposed with an exhausted horse, illustrates the range of emotional and physical experiences attributed to these noble animals within stories.

Answer:

Squanto

Explanation:

Squanto was the interpreter for Massaoit (the Wampanoag Chief) and helped establish a treaty between the Pilgrims and Wampanoag's as well as helped the Pilgrims to survive with crops.

Final answer:

Squanto, a member of the Wampanoag tribe, played a crucial role in teaching the Pilgrims agricultural methods and acting as an interpreter, which significantly helped them survive in the New World.

Explanation:

The member of the Wampanoag tribe who helped the Pilgrims grow key crops was Squanto, also known as Tisquantum. A member of the Pawtuxet tribe of the Wampanoag Confederacy, Squanto played a pivotal role in the survival of the Pilgrim settlers in the New World. After being kidnapped and taken to England, Squanto returned to his homeland where he used his knowledge of English and local agricultural techniques to assist the Pilgrims. He taught them how to use local herring to fertilize the soil, which led to a successful growing of crops including maize. Squanto's contributions were critical in the early years of the Plymouth colony, establishing a fragile peace and cooperative relationship between the settlers and the Wampanoag tribe.

The letter suggests that the lack of academic excellence at the school may be due to students' participation in extracurricular activities, the lack of an efficient study support system like a writing center, and a culture of misattributing failures.

Dear Friend,

I hope this letter finds you in good health and spirits. I wanted to share with you some of the reasons I believe our school is not excelling in academic works.

Many of our students are highly involved in extracurricular activities. For instance, our basketball team spends many hours each week training, affecting their study time. They are not unlike the high school student who gets teased for receiving an academic award. Their focus is divided, which often impacts academic performance negatively.

Our school lacks an efficient study support system, like a writing center, where students could get assistance and feedback on their school assignments. Perhaps if we had such a tool, students could learn to review their work and improve their writing skills better. It would positively impact our collective academic standing.

Misattribution of failures also plays a part. An example would be Kim, a classmate of mine, who blamed his history course failure on the professor’s personal bias rather than his own lack of study and attendance.

Overall, the factors hindering our academic excellence are many and complex. These issues make it hard for our school to achieve its academic potential.

Warm regards,
