The familiar constellation sagittarius is near the galactic center of the milky way. which word does the appositive rename? a. constellation b. sagittarius c. galactic center d. milky way

The correct answer is Constellation.

Explanation:

Appositives have to do with those words that come together or one is close to the other in which one is renaming the other. The appositive in this particular sentence is Sagittarius and the word that is near to rename it is the word Constellation.  

The correct answer is option A. constellation.

Explanation:

An apositive is a noun or nominal phrase positioned next to another noun, which changes its name or describes it in a different way.

It can be a simple word or some longer phrase.

In general, the information provided by an apositive could be deleted without affecting the meaning.

In this case, one could say "Sagittarius is near the Galactic Center of the Milky Way." without using the word constellation and the sentence would still mean the same.

for this case, we must find the number of deaths per day of the year 2015, in automobile accidents, knowing that 32,400 people died.

knowing that the year 2015 had 365 days we have the following division:

where "x" represents the number of deaths per day.

rounding off we have:

approximately, 89 people per day died in 2015

answer:

89 people per day
