In 2008, more than one million American students gave nearly 20 million service hours to their communities. They made a difference in people's lives and learned some important life lessons in the process. Organizations, including schools, are actively promoting service for all citizens as a way to be involved, help others, and improve themselves.
Service is helping other people and being active in your community. For example, one group of teens planted a community garden with their friends. They grow a variety of vegetables. The garden requires regular care. The teens donate the produce to a local soup kitchen. Workers there use the produce to help feed people in the community. By tending the garden and donating their produce, the teens are actively helping make life a bit better for others in their community.
Service is valuable in ways that cannot be measured in dollars. People volunteer or serve others without expecting money or gifts in return. Service is not about earning money. It is not just collecting money to give to a group. It is about action and contributing to the common good. The people who serve as well as those who receive help benefit in many ways that are more important than money or gifts. For example, a soup kitchen provides essential food to people who may otherwise go hungry. The soup kitchen is extremely valuable for those struggling to get enough to eat. Those serving learn about compassion and how helping others can improve life for all.
Millions of Americans are making society better for themselves and for others. They are participating citizens in their community, raising up those who are less fortunate. In return, they become better people who can understand the perspectives and needs of others, which are invaluable and important qualities of good citizens.

I need help with this geometry question

Answers

Answer:

x=9; JL= 23

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x:

If JL and KM are equivalent, then JL = KM. Substitute the equations and you get 2x+5 = 7x-40.

Put the similar terms on the same side by subtracting 2x from both sides and adding 40 to both sides. You will get 45=5x.

Get x alone by dividing both sides by 5 and you will get 9=x.

To find JL:

Substitute the x in 2x+5 (JL length equation) with 9. Your new equation will be 2(9) + 5.

2•9 = 18.

18+5=23

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hope it help

plz follow me

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the value of y, so substitute y into the equation:

3x + (-4 + 11) = 9 --> remove parentheses

3x - 4 + 11 = 9

3x + 7 = 9 --> subtract 7 from 9

3x = 2 --> divide

x = 2/3

1: 7(3+5) = ? + ?

2: 15 - 10 = ? (3-2)

Please hurry I have to submit this by 3:00

Answers

Answer: 1.  7(3+5)= 21+35

2. 15 - 10 = 5 (3-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

1: 7(3+5) = ? + ?

Opening the bracket and multiplying each number by 7

7 x 3 + 7 x 5 = 21 + 35 =56

7(3+5)= 21+35

2.15 - 10 = ? (3-2)

15- 10 = 5  , On the other hand,

3-2 = 1

to make the left hand equivalent to the right hand side , we multiply the difference gotten from 3-2 by 5 so we have

15 - 10 = 5 (3-2)

5=5(1)

5=5

A store sells comic books. Each comic book costs the same amount. During a sale, the store reduces the price of each comic book by 1.45. Miguel

spends $12.88 on 2 comic books at the sale price.

What was the price of I comic bbok before the sale? Enter the answer in the box.

Answers

Answer:

$7.89

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Miguel spends $12.88 on 2 comic books then the amount spent on 1 book given that the prices of the books are equal will be

= $12.88/2

= $6.44

Given that  the store reduced the price of each comic book by $1.45 then the price P of 1 comic book before the sale

P = $6.44 + $1.45

= $7.89

The cost of 1 comic book before the sale ( which is before the reduction in price) is  $7.89

c. 2:00 p.m.

D. 3:00 p.m.

E. 4:00 p.m.

Answers

Answer:

D. 3:00 p.m.

Step-by-step explanation:

d = Distance = 320 miles

s = Speed = [tex]60\ \text{mph}=\dfrac{60}{3600}=\dfrac{1}{60}\ \text{miles/s}[/tex]

Time taken is given by

[tex]t=\dfrac{d}{s}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{320}{\dfrac{1}{60}}\\\Rightarrow t=19200\ \text{s}[/tex]

40 minutes break is [tex]40\times 60=2400\ \text{s}[/tex]

Total time taken is [tex]19200+2400=21600\ \text{s}=\dfrac{21600}{60\times 60}=6\ \text{hours}[/tex].

So, the entire trip took 6 hours. 6 hours after 9 a.m. is 3 p.m.

3. What is the perimeter of a rectangle if the width is 2 ½ inches and the length is 4.5 inches?
(show how you get your answer please)

Answers

Answer:

Perimeter of the rectangle =  14 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given length of the rectangle = 4.5 inches

Given that the width of the rectangle = [tex]2\frac{1}{2} = \frac{5}{2} = 2.5[/tex] inches

The area of the rectangle = length × width

                                          = 4.5 × 2.5

                                          = 11.25 sq inches

Step(ii):-

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2( length + width)

                                            = 2( 4.5 + 2.5)

                                            = 14 inches

Final answer:-

Perimeter of the rectangle =  14 inches

Julio invest $15,000 in a savings account that pays 1.5% simple interest. How much will be in the

account after 5 years if Julio makes no withdrawals or deposits? *

Answers

Answer: Final amount

Step-by-step explanation:

Final amount = Simple interest + Principal

=Principal x Rate x Time + Principal

= Principal (Rate x Time +1)    [Simple interest =Principal x Rate x Time]

 

Given: Principal = $15,000, Rate = 1.5% = 0.015  [To conver % into decimal we divide it by 100]

Time = 5 years

Final amount = $(15000(0.015 ×5+1))

=$ (15000×1.075)

=$ 16125

Hence, there will be $16,125 in the account after 5 years  if Julio makes no withdrawals or deposit.
