The following passage is from page 20 of the book Interesting Creatures of the Sea by Cameron James:Plough snails are animals that live on the seashore. They use their fleshy bodies to bury themselves in the sand during low tides. The snails do this in order to avoid getting washed out to sea. When the high tide rolls in, the snails come out of the sand. They turn their bodies into the waves and let the water push them further up onto the beach.
Plough snails eat dead fish and other dead animals that wash up on the beach. These creatures have a keen sense of smell. They can detect even the tiniest amount of dead animal particles in the water. When they smell a dead animal on the beach, they hurry toward it. The snails have a straw-like tube that they stick into dead animals. They use the tube structures to suck their food. Plough snails can eat enough at one time to keep them alive for two weeks.

Lannie ordered 12 copies of the same book for his book club members. The book cost $19 each and the order has a$15 shipping charge. What is the total cost of lannies order?

Answers

Answer:

$243 dollars total

Explanation:

In order to calculate the total cost you just have to multiply the cost of each book by the number of books that you are buying and then you just add the cost of the shipping fee, so it would be like this:

19x12=228

228+15= 243

So the total cost would be 243 dollars.
Multiple the (12) copies of books times the amount of money ($19) then add the ($15) for shipping. The total will be $243.00.

Answers

The point of view in the poem The Highwayman is:

Option C

  • Third Person Omniscient.

In this sonnet, Noyes investigates subjects of adoration, love misfortune, and passing.

The activity centers around the lives and passings of the two principle characters, a highwayman, or burglar, and his darling, the little girl of the property manager, Bess. These two live for and bite the dust for each other.

Sold out to the specialists by Tim, a desirous ostler, the highwayman gets away from trap when Bess penances her life to caution him.

Significant Themes in The Highwayman Love, fortitude, and penance are the significant subjects of this sonnet.

The sonnet commends the genuine romance of its focal characters Bess and the Highwayman. Both attempt to stay faithful to their commitment, yet savage destiny isolates them, and they are killed. Nonetheless, their spirits rejoin in the afterlife.

The sonnet, set in eighteenth century country England, recounts the narrative of an anonymous highwayman who is infatuated with Bess, a landowner's girl. hence the point of view in the poem is third person omniscient.
