Question 1 of 5 In a historical novel, Iktomi tries to hone his leadership skills by bossing the other children around. He is a talented tracker and hunter, but his overpowering personality is disliked by others. When it is time for his community to choose a young man to represent them at an important festival, Iktomi is heartbroken to not be selected. Instead, a boy who has taught others to make snowshoes is chosen. In part of the story, Iktomi asks if the other boy will teach him to make snowshoes. Which statement best explains how this plot event develops the theme that people prefer to follow those who treat them with respect? O A. It shows that even arrogant people eventually accept leaders who are helpful to others. B. It shows that when survival is on the line, ability is more important than popularity. O C. It shows that the greatest friendships sometimes begin as competition and rivalry.

A. It shows that even arrogant people eventually accept leaders who are helpful to others.

Explanation:

This is true due to the fact that, Iktomi was an arrogant person who believe that, his arrogance would be able to get him whatever he wants. He refuses to know that, talent only does not guarantee someone being accepted but rather humility and respect towards others goes a long way.

His rejection during the selection taught him a bitter lesson hence the reason he became humble and try to learn from the boy that was selected.

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
