Rather than taking them during separate semesters, james decided to take concurrent courses despite what he knew would be a heavy workload.

which phrase from this sentence best reveals the meaning of the word concurrent?

during separate semesters

decided to take

despite what he knew

a heavy workload

The correct answer is A. During separate semesters

Explanation:

In the sentence presented, the word "concurrent" that refers to the courses James decide to take means at the same time or simultaneously. This meaning is mainly suggested in the first clause "Rather than taking them during separate semesters" that states "concurrent" is exactly the opposite to taking courses in separate semesters and therefore this helps the reader to understand "concurrent" is simultaneous or during the same semester. Thus, the phrase that reveals the meaning of the word concurrent is "during separate semesters" as this acts as an antonym and suggesting the meaning of the word.

substitute y = 2x - 4 to x + 2y = 12:

x + 2(2x - 4) = 12     use distributive property

x + (2)(2x) + () = 12

x + 4x - 8 = 12     add 8 to both sides

5x = 20     divide both sides by 5

x = 4

put the value of x to the first equation:

y = 2(4) - 4

y = 8 - 4

y = 4
