Type four words that you use in a way that is different from their "proper" or standard meaning. These are probably words that y

ou use in talking to your peers (like "cool"). Do not include words which are generally considered inappropriate for public use. Type the meaning of each word as you use it, then type the standard meaning of the word, such as you might find in a dictionary.

Answer:

There are many possible answers to this question.

Explanation:

Four words that are commonly used in a different meaning than the standard or original are:

Cop: used in the expression "Cop or drop?" to ask if the object should be gotten (cop) by the speaker or not. It also refers to the police. The original meaning: cop means to steal or to buy (usually narcotics).

Dog: used in many different ways, it mostly refers to a fellow or the bad quality of something. As known, a dog is a four-legged animal usually kept as a pet.

Sweet: used as a synonym for nice.

However, sweet means that something tastes like sugar or honey or something similar.

Lit is another word used in a lot of ways. It could refer to the good characteristics of something or someone; on the other hand, it also means that somebody is under the effects of alcohol. However, lit is the past and past participle of the verb light, that means to burn, among other things.

Should Katniss have intervened when the girl was taken by the hovercraft? Why or why no?
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Katniss should not intervene when the girl is taken. Think of it this way; if Katniss had intervened, would she have survived? Or would there have been more than one casualty? Acknowledging that the morally sound answer would be yes, we should consider the logical information that Katniss more than likely wouldn't have made it out of that situation in one piece. The capitol is very aggressive and would not hesitate to execute Katniss for rebelling.

The figure below shows two half-circles at the ends of a rectangle with the dimensions shown. A figure is shown with two half-ci
qaws [65]

Answer:

178

Explanation:

According to my calculations, and some review on the formulas, I concluded with the answer 178. I got this answer through these steps:

1. We must calculate the area of the rectangle, which is width times height (25 X 6) which equals 150. Now that we have summed this answer, we must find the area of the two semi-circles. We know the height of the rectangle is the diameter of both semi circles, therefore we can discover the radius which is half of the diameter, (3^2) pi which equals 9 pi, as there are two semi circles which will make a whole.

2. This is the final step is to plug in our answers.

150+3(9.424) which equals approximately 178.

I see you are in college, I am in 9th grade, so I apologize if this answer is wrong.

Read the poem below and answer the question that follows.
Serhud [2]
By the words "detestable" and "die", we can tell that the mood of this poem is dark and angry. The author obviously is not proud of what humans have done. Also, the word "encroach" makes the mood sad. The author points out what terrible things humans are and how rude we are (which is quite true, based on what happened on January 20th).
