In the following sentence, is “While the princess rested” an independent clause?
While the princess rested, a great festival was being arranged in her honor.

Answers

The correct answer is False.

Explanation

In the sentence "While the princess rested, a great festival was being arranged in her honor" there are an independent clause and a dependent clause. This can be established because the clause "a great festival was being arranged in her honor" is an independent clause, because it is a complete sentence that makes sense by itself and does not need another sentence for the reader to be able to understand. Additionally, the clause "while the princes rested" is a dependent clause because it must be complemented with the other sentence so that the reader can understand it. According to the above, the "while the princess rested" clause is a dependent clause.

A vehicle starts to move foom rest and maintains an acceleration of 0.8 m/s2 in 10 second Calculate the final velocity and distance covert by the vehicle with in that time.

Answers

initial velocity, u = 0m/s (starts from rest)

final velocity, v = ?

time, t = 10 seconds

acceleration, a = 0.8m/s²

v - u = at

v - 0 = 0.8(10)

v - 0 = 8

v = 8m/s

speed = distance / time

distance = speed x time

distance = 8 x 10

distance = 80m

In order to consider the evidence and logic of a text, do all of the following EXCEPT:
1. Examine what the author uses to support his or her argument.
2. Identify counterclaims the author uses within the text.
3. Evaluate the ways in which you disagree with the author.
4. Determine if the information presented is accurate.

Answers

The correct answer is 3. Evaluate the ways in which you disagree with the author.

Explanation

A text is a form of communication through which feelings, ideas, research, stories, among others, are expressed. To be considered a logical text, it must have at least coherence, cohesion, and adequacy. On the other hand, argumentative texts are resources by which a person supports an idea through arguments that must be solid, verifiable, valid, and correct. So, to consider the evidence and logic of a text, it is necessary to examine arguments used by the author, identify counterclaims used by the author, and determine if the information presented is accurate. On the other hand, to review a text it is necessary to take an objective position and not make value judgments about it, nor evaluate it through thoughts that are different from those of the author. So the correct answer is 3.
