Answer. 3. Which sentence best expresses the main idea of this paragraph?
Three weeks into his life with us, Owen (who, the vet estimated, was about ten years old) is as funny and frisky as any kitten
ever born. He lurks under the bed and leaps out to slap Logan the terrier, who regards him with enormous amusement. He
scrambles over Alex the quiet retriever, who just looks with good will at him. White Cat and Felix, our two adult cats, treat
him like the youngster he is, occasionally swatting his nose to remind him to mind his manners. And when there is a human
lap to snuggle into, he does so, purring so loudly it's hard to believe kuch a huge sound is coming from such a tiny body.
(Paragraph 27)
a. Owen likes to lurk under the bed and then jump out to attack Logan the terrier.
b. The household's other two cats sometimes swat Owen to remind him to behave nicely.
c. Owen has made himself at home in Carlin and Bob's house.
d. Owen purrs loudly when he sleeps in a human lap.

exhausted word best describes the mood of the passage frink creates .

in the problem you wrote said that the taxi charges $0.070 per mile(which would be 7 cents per mile), but then in your suggested equation you have it as $0.70 per mile (which is 70 cents per mile).

the latter seems more realistic, so i will assume that the taxi costs $5.00 and charges $0.70 per mile with tolls costing an additional $3.50. and it asks you to find how far you can travel on $36.50.

let x the number of miles traveled. since the taxi charges $0.70 per mile, multiplying this by the miles traveled (x) will yield the cost of the taxi ride as far as how far it took you. then adding this amount to the cost of the taxi ($5.00) and the additional cost for the tolls ($3.50) will give you the total cost of the taxi ride ($36.50)

that is,

            (0.70)x + 5.00 + 3.50 = 36.50

adding the like terms on the left-hand side of this equation, we arrive at the following:

            (0.70)x + 8.50 = 36.50

subtracting 8.50 from both sides of the equation, we get:

            (0.70)x = 28.00

to solve for x, divide both sides of the equation above by the coefficient of x (that being, 0.70):

            x = 40

thus, you can travel up to 40 miles on $36.50
