The kind of text structure that was utilized by William Kamkwamba in the story, "The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind" is the Sequential text structure.
William Kwakwamba began with the day the windmill first generated electricity because it was remarkable and is, therefore, the first detail to note in the story.
To understand why this is the right text structure, we need to first understand what text structure is and the characteristics of a sequential structure.
What is Text Structure?Text structure refers to the organization of writing to convey intended meanings.
The sequential text structure follows these processes:
It is a step-by-step account of the events in the story.It can be identified by words such as first, then, and finally.Thus given these explanations of what the sequential text structure is, we can classify the excerpt from William Kamkwamba's "The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind" as sequential.

Answer:
49
Step-by-step explanation:
the line joined by midpoints of sides is called midsection
which is parallel to the third side and is half its length
so (5x - 26) * 2 = 9x - 37
10x - 52 = 9x - 37
x = 52 - 37
x = 15
so PQ is 5x - 26
= 5*15 - 26
= 75 - 26
= 49
Find the length of the missing side. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
Answer:
≈ 31.7 yd
Step-by-step explanation:
let the missing side be x , then using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
x² + 9² = 33²
x² + 81 = 1089 ( subtract 81 from both sides )
x² = 1008 ( take square root of both sides )
x = [tex]\sqrt{1008}[/tex] ≈ 31.7 yd ( to the nearest tenth )

Answer:
E, -1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a line, given the coordinates, can be written as m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where x and y are points in the coordinates.
Let's look at the coordinates. (-5, 1), the first value in the brackets is always the x-coordinate and the second value is always the y-coordinate. So -5 is x and 1 is y. But we have to points, so -5 is x1 and 1 is y1, and -20 is x2 and 4 is y2.
By substituting
m = (4 - 1) / (-20 - [-5])
m = 3 / (-20 + 5)
m = 3 / -15
m = -1 / 5
[tex]\text{Given that,}~ (x_1,y_1) = (-5,1)~~ \text{and}~~ (x_2, y_2) =(-20,4)\\\\\\\text{Slope,}~ m =\dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \dfrac{4 - 1}{-20 +5 } =-\dfrac 3{15} = - \dfrac 15[/tex]

4) A company manufactures widgets. The expense function E=8q+12,000 and the
demand function q= -10p +20,000, where p is the price.
a. Express the variable expense V in terms of q, where q is the quantity of widgets
produced
b. Express the total expenso E in terms of p.
c. Determine the Revenue R in terms of p. (Hint: R=p•q).
d. Determine the profit P in terms of p. (Hint: P=R-E).
e. Determine the price that will yield the maximum profit. (Hint: x = -b/2a).
f. Determine the maximum profit.
Revenue, profit and expenses are all integral parts of a company's balance sheet
The expense in terms of q is [tex]\mathbf{E = 8q + 12000}[/tex]The expense in terms of p is [tex]\mathbf{E = -80p + 172000}[/tex]The revenue in terms of p is [tex]\mathbf{R = -10p^2 + 20000p}[/tex]The profit in terms of p [tex]\mathbf{P =-10p^2 + 20080p - 172000}[/tex]The price that yields the maximum profit is $1004The maximum profit is $9908160The expense function is given as:
[tex]\mathbf{E = 8q + 12000}[/tex]
The demand function is given as:
[tex]\mathbf{p = -10p + 20000}[/tex]
(a) The expense in terms of q
This is already given as: [tex]\mathbf{E = 8q + 12000}[/tex]
(b) The expense in terms of p
Substitute -10p + 20000 for p in [tex]\mathbf{E = 8q + 12000}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{E = 8(-10p + 20000) + 12000}[/tex]
Expand
[tex]\mathbf{E = -80p + 160000 + 12000}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{E = -80p + 172000}[/tex]
(c) The revenue in terms of P
This is calculated as:
[tex]\mathbf{R = p \times q}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\mathbf{R = p \times (-10p + 20000)}[/tex]
Expand
[tex]\mathbf{R = -10p^2 + 20000p}[/tex]
(d) The profit in terms of p
We have:
[tex]\mathbf{R = -10p^2 + 20000p}[/tex] and [tex]\mathbf{E = -80p + 172000}[/tex]
So, the profit P is calculated as:
[tex]\mathbf{P =R - E}[/tex]
This gives
[tex]\mathbf{P =-10p^2 + 20000p +80p - 172000}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{P =-10p^2 + 20080p - 172000}[/tex]
(e) The price that yields maximum profit
In (d), we have:
[tex]\mathbf{P =-10p^2 + 20080p - 172000}[/tex]
The maximum price is calculated using:
[tex]\mathbf{p = -\frac{b}{2a}}[/tex]
Where:
[tex]\mathbf{b =20080}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{a = -10}[/tex]
So, the equation becomes
[tex]\mathbf{p = -\frac{20080}{2 \times -10}}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{p = 1004}[/tex]
Hence, the price that yields the maximum profit is $1004
(f) The maximum profit
In (e), we have: [tex]\mathbf{p = 1004}[/tex]
Substitute 1004 for p in [tex]\mathbf{P =-10p^2 + 20080p - 172000}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{P =-10(1004)^2 + 20080(1004) - 172000}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{P =9908160}[/tex]
Hence, the maximum profit is $9908160

Given equation: y = -8/3 + 5/3

A biologist observed a population of bacteria that grew at a rate expressed by the exponential equation
f(t)=256e(0.0611t)
where t is in minutes. How long will it take the population to reach 5 times its initial value?
Answer: 26.34
Step-by-step explanation:
The bacteria will take 26.3409 minutes.
What is Exponential Equations?Exponents are used in exponential equations, as the name suggests. We are aware that a number's exponent (or base) tells us how many times the original number has been multiplied. But what occurs if a number's power is a variable? An exponential equation is one in which the power is a variable and a part of the equation.
Given f(t) = 256[tex]e^{0.0611t}[/tex]
initial condition when t = 0
f(0) = 256
to find the time when population reach 5 times its initial value
= 256 x 5 = 1280
f(t) = 1280,
to calculate t
1280 = 256[tex]e^{0.0611t}[/tex]
[tex]e^{0.0611t}[/tex] = 5
0.0611t = ln(5)
0.0611t = 1.60943
t = 1.60943/0.0611
t = 26.3409 minutes.
Hence Bacteria will take 26.3409 minutes to reach 5 times.

Answer:
∠ B = 126°
Step-by-step explanation:
∠ A and ∠ B are alternate angles and are congruent , then
8x + 78 = 2x + 114 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
6x + 78 = 114 ( subtract 78 from both sides )
6x = 36 ( divide both sides by 6 )
x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-intercept form is written in [tex]y=mx+b[/tex]
So, to solve, we must separate y onto one side and make its coefficient one.
[tex]4x+3y=12[/tex]
Subtract 4x on both sides.
[tex]3y=12-4x[/tex]
Divide both sides by the coefficient of [tex]y[/tex], which is 3.

does the graph represent a function? yea or no
Answer:
no
Step-by-step explanation:
It is not because it does not pass the vertical line test.
****************************************************************
This is the vertical line test:
Imagine a vertical line that starts at the left side of the graph, at x = -8, and is moving right to x = 8. If at any time in the vertical line's movement from left to right, it intersects more than 1 point of the relation simultaneously, then the relation is not a function.
******************************************************************
Here, when the vertical line is x = -7, the vertical line intersects points (-7, 4) and (-7, 6) simultaneously. That means this relation does not pass the vertical line test, and it is not a function.
