<p>Thanks SOOO much!</p>

<p>For the second one:
consecutive integers mean the ones digits are each separated by one unit.
jn=9
How can you get two different numbers to multiply and give 9 in ones?
how about two numbers that have 1 and 9 in the ones column. So, j ends in 9 and n ends in 1.
k is between them. it ends in (ie the number in the ones place is) 0.</p>

<p>For the third one:psq-nsq=12 is rewritten (p+n)(p-n)=12
What combos could give this with p-n being less than p+n?
p+n p-n
12 1
6 2
4 3</p>

<p>So, we start with those possibilities for p-n
But that’s just the first hoop to jump through. Ask yourself what (p+n) +(p-n) would equal. 2p. So, when you add the possible p+n and p-n pairs, which gives you an even number (ie 2p)?
Only the 6,2 combo. So the p-n value can only be 2, IMO.</p>

<p>Wish my son were studying. Gotta go. Hope other will help you with rest. Last one: who will eat this?> to whom will you give this? know difft types of pronouns’</p>

<p>thank you so much for your explanation, but i’m afraid to say i still don’t fully comprehend your explanation! could you perhaps use actual numbers to illustrate the solution? that would mean so much if you could!!!</p>

<p>for the 2nd math question about the jk stuff :)</p>

<p>The product of j and n has 9 in the ones column. so say j=9 and n==11. 9 x 11= 99.
What number would be between j and n?
10, with 0 in the ones coulumn.</p>

<p>The last one is A because whom should be who.
When you write the sentence do this. I believed __ was likely …
Substitute the blank space with whom or who. OR substitute a subjective pronoun like he for who and him for whom. Now put it in. I believe that him was likely vs. I believed he was likely. Thus, you need the subjective form of the pronoun which is who!
The reason for this is that linking verb was.</p>

<p>The one with the semi-circles asking for arc length is easy. Your picture shows a handwritten formula that’s wrong. Total circumference is pi<em>diameter, not 2</em>pi*diam.</p>

<p>To answer your question: the concept being reinforced is that
pi<em>diameter = circumference, or
pi</em>radius = half of circumference</p>

<p>You need the “half-circumferences” of two circles. Suppose the circles have radii r1 and r2. Then the length you want is pi<em>(r1 + r2). But they tell us r1 + r2 is 12. So the answer is pi</em>12.</p>

<p>And i think 5th one is commentary ON not of.</p>

<p>First one: be succinct. anything that is imminent is happening in the future. You don’t need to repeat yourself. That’s why it’s e.</p>

<p>For the first one, “imminent” means happening in the future. It would be redundant to write “imminent” and “happen in the future”.</p>

<p>For the first one:</p>

<p>‘should have realized that it might be imminent’ (paraphrasing here) is still past tense, because of ‘realized’</p>

<p>I think they’re trying to get you to realize that ‘imminent’ and ‘may happen in the future’ are redundant</p>

<p>For who/whom Q’s [url=&lt;a href=“http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/who-versus-whom.aspx]Grammar”&gt;http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/who-versus-whom.aspx]Grammar</a> Girl : Who Versus Whom :: Quick and Dirty Tips <a href=“skip%20to%20the%20quick%20and%20dirty%20if%20you%20have%20trouble%20with%20subject/object”>/url</a>. I never miss a who/whom question anymore.</p>

<p>that’s a great tip! but for more complex sentences like the following, could you explain your thought process on who to solve this?</p>

<p>Give these old coats to ____________ seems to need them most.
answer: whoever</p>

<p>because if i were to ask the question “give these old coats to who?” the answer would be HIM. </p>

<p>but is it because the object of the sentence is “______ seems to need then most” so whoever would be like the subject of this clause within the whole sentence??</p>

<p>I haven’t looked at any of the questions and can’t quickly tell which have been satisfactorily answered, so I would appreciate explication of which remain on the table. </p>

<p>In any case, regarding the latest post, a helpful tool for who/whom distinction is to ask Of what verb, if any, will my chosen word be the subject? Every subject – and “who” must indeed be a subject for it is in the nominative case – must have a corresponding verb and every verb a corresponding subject. If no verb can be found, “whom” is the proper choice. </p>

<p>In your “coats” sentence, “seems” is the relevant verb for justifying “whoever.” The whole of “whoever seems to need them most” is the indirect object of “Give”; everything within that object, however, need not be in the objective case, because it is a clause subordinately nominalized into object-friendly form by “whoever.”</p>
