Answer:

The maximum number of games you can play is 11 games

Explanation:

Let the possible maximum number of games you can play be represented by 'f'

If a game costs $0.85, then the cost of f number of games will be $(f × 0.85).

Cost of your admission into the game = $5

Amount available for your spending = $15

Total amount that you can possibly spend if you are to play f games = cost of admission + cost of f games

That is, $5 + $0.85f

Amount you can possibly spend, $5 + $0.85f = $15

To know the maximum number of games you can play, solve for f

$5+ $0.85f = $15

0.85f = 15 - 5

0.85f = 10

f = 10/0.85

f = 11. 765 games

Since there is no fractional game,

The maximum number of games you can play is 11 games

$5 + $0.85g < $15

g < 11.76

You have enough money for 11 games.

It seems that you have missed the necessary options for us to complete this analogy, but hope this one helps. So if thread is to string, therefore, a cask is to barrel. A cask is a <span>large barrel like container made of wood, metal, or plastic, used for storing liquids especially those with alcohol. Hope this answers the question.</span>

Which one of the following suffixes would you add to the verb hate to convert it into a noun? A. -d B. -s C. -ing D. -er
WARRIOR [948]
You could add the suffix D. -er to the verb hate in order to convert it into a noun. When you do that, you get the word hater, which is a noun denoting a person who hates. Technically, C is also correct, because you get a noun hating, which is the act of hating - but if you have to choose just one, I'd go with D. When you add -d you get an adjective hated, and when you add -s, you get a verb hates.

Over [174]

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Read “Asian Men Can Jump,” by Gish Jen (2012, New York Times)

In 2012, Jeremy Lin led an unexpected winning streak by the New York Knicks, becoming the first Asian-American player to rise to prominence in the National Basketball Association. The writer Gish Jen published the following op-ed reflecting on the significance of Lin’s success.

Read the passage carefully, then complete the following tasks:  

Identify a claim made by Jen and explain the reasoning underlying this claim.

List at least two pieces of supporting evidence from the passage and briefly explain how they support the claim you have identified

Answer:

Jen claims that her brother, Bob, could be "the fittest 58-year-old on the planet." Of course, this is not a claim to be taken literally. It means that his health and physical state is incredibly good for his age.

Explanation:

The evidence she provides is that her brother´s doctor has estimated Bob´s biological age at 35. She further supports her claim saying that "he´s still climbing big mountains in the Himalayas," which is a monumental physical effort.
