<p>Oh, the marble one was 75 by the way</p>
<p>(100/125) =.8
(4/5) =. 8</p>
<p>Oh, the marble one was 75 by the way</p>
<p>(100/125) =.8
(4/5) =. 8</p>
<p>I put no answer.</p>
<p>what it the apathy/raptness ???</p>
<p>I got ‘no answer’ for that one too.</p>
<p>@jamesjunkers Can you explain that one?</p>
<p>@ncurio - yes, no solution; subtracting x from each side would have given 9=10 (which obviously makes no sense :p).</p>
<p>rmj - I will explain it. </p>
<p>There are 100 red 100 blue. They wanted the probability to equal 4/5, or 0.8, or 80% for blue. You can’t add any in. How many red do you need to remove?</p>
<p>So, if you take 75 away from red, that leaves 100 b and 25 r. 100/125 = 0.8.</p>
<p>*So, 75.</p>
<p>was “composed of” used correctly in the sunflower sentence error question???</p>
<p>Comprise means to consist of (e.g., The cake comprises four slices.) Some quirks:</p>
<p>(1) No of with comprise (e.g., It comprises of… ).
(2) Avoid the construction is comprised of.
(3) Avoid naming the constituent parts first (e.g., Four slices comprise the cake.)</p>
<p>Compose means to make up (e.g., Four slices compose the cake.)</p>
<p>"The construction is composed of (note: it correctly includes the word of) does not attract the same criticism as is comprised of. "</p>
<p>I think composed of was fine. I put no error.</p>
<p>Regarding one of the fix sentence questions - something about some literature person and some award - did you use the possession choice "[name]'s [novel]</p>
<p>It began with the words "Comprising of eight…</p>
<p>What did eveyone get for yhe star problem. It was the same as the one from practice test, but the middle was shaded this time.</p>
<p>@smc101, yeah since the beginning was describing the book.</p>
<p>Sentient@ I put choice E I believe - with the “astronomers who”</p>
<p>I put the one with the colon.</p>
<p>@smc For that one I put the author’s name</p>
<p>I didn’t put Colon because colon I thought you have to list multiple things.</p>
<p>@daimyo i put the one with the colon too</p>
<p>Smc - yeah</p>
<p>I put the colon because it was the only one which worked I think</p>
<p>@smc Idk but I think the semicolon one didn’t work.</p>
