andrew is writing an essay with the claim that playing a team sport is beneficial for students. which kind of evidence could he use to support his claim?

Question

a.) a list of the number of students from his state who became pro athletes
b.) data detailing the positive effects of outdoor activity
c.) statistics showing the percentage in team sports
d.) a study explaining that team sports teach student social skills

Answer 1

All of the options, a) a list of the number of students from his state who became pro athletes, b) data detailing the positive effects of outdoor activity, c) statistics showing the percentage in team sports, and d) a study explaining that team sports teach student social skills, can be used as evidence to support the claim that playing a team sport is beneficial for students.

However, the most relevant evidence to support the claim would be d) a study explaining that team sports teach student social skills. This evidence directly supports the claim being made by indicating a specific benefit of playing a team sport for students. The other options, while still potentially relevant, are not as directly connected to the claim.

Answer 2

nicole has 144 role playing cards and $9 to buy more cards. she and her friend buy another set that costs $27. they evenly slit the cost and the cards and a set. how many cards does nicole have after she buys part of the set with her friends?

Answer 3

Nicole initially has 144 role-playing cards. After buying the additional set with her friend, they evenly split the cost and the cards. This means that each of them pays $27/2 = $<<27/2=13.50>>13.50 for the set.

If Nicole has $9 to spend, she would have $9 - $13.50 = -$4.50 left after buying the set. This implies that Nicole doesn't have enough money to purchase the set.

Since she cannot buy part of the set with her friend, the number of cards Nicole has remains unchanged at 144.
