A Flag with 50 Stars
The first American flag to have red and white stripes and white stars on a blue field was flown in 1776, shortly after the United States declared its independence from Great Britain. Legend has it that a Philadelphia seamstress named Betsy Ross was hired by George Washington himself to create this flag. There is no evidence that this legend is true, and no one knows for certain who made the first flag, which had 13 stars and 13 stripes. However, we know for a fact that the first flag to have 50 stars—the one we have today—was designed by a high school student.
In 1958, Bob Heft was a 17-year-old student at Lancaster High School in Ohio. At that time, the United States had only 48 states but was on the verge of accepting two more: Alaska and Hawaii. The U.S. flag at the time had six neat rows of eight stars each. What would be the best way to add two more stars while keeping the arrangement neat and orderly? This was the question that Bob’s history teacher posed to the class.
The teacher gave the students an assignment: design a flag with 50 stars. Bob spent hours in the attic of his house, cutting up a 48-star flag and rearranging the stars until they fit just right. He was pleased with his solution to the problem, but his teacher found it less than perfect and gave him a B minus. Outraged, Bob told his teacher that he was going to send his design to his member of Congress, Walter Moeller. His teacher replied that if Bob’s design was accepted as the new flag, he would be more than happy to change the grade to an A.
A year later, Bob had graduated and was working as a draftsman when he received a call at work. He never would have imagined a call from President Eisenhower—but that's who it was! Now that Alaska and Hawaii had been admitted as states, Congressman Moeller had succeeded in having Bob's design chosen as the new U.S. flag. Bob Heft was invited to Washington, D.C., for a ceremony during which his design was officially adopted as the new flag of the United States.
Read the excerpt from “A Flag with 50 Stars.”
Now that Alaska and Hawaii had been admitted as states, Congressman Moeller had succeeded in having Bob's design chosen as the new U.S. flag.
How do these sentences contribute to the text?
They develop the idea that, without Congressman Moeller, there would not be a new U.S flag.
They imply that the people of Alaska and Hawaii prefer Bob's design over other options.
They show it takes several years for the U.S. government to approve a new flag design.
They develop the idea that Bob's design is exceptional, despite what his teacher thought.
Its for K-12

Read the passage.
AC vs. DC
In the 1880s, the War of the Currents began. Thomas Edison developed direct current, or DC, a type of electricity that flows in one direction. By 1887, DC was in use around the United States. It had some drawbacks, though. Converting it to lower or higher voltages was difficult; that is, the current's force couldn't be changed easily. Transmitted at the low voltage needed for use in homes and businesses, it lost power after traveling only a mile. Meanwhile, Nikola Tesla was working with alternating current, or AC. AC reverses direction many times per second and can be changed to different voltages. At high voltage, it can be transmitted efficiently, traveling hundreds of miles with little energy loss. Because of its advantages, AC triumphed by the end of the nineteenth century.
What is the main idea of the passage?
AC has distinct advantages over DC, so AC won the War of the Currents.
AC reverses direction and can be converted to lower or higher voltage.
What is the main idea?
Answer: "AC has distinct advantages over DC, so AC won the War of the currents."
The main and the central idea about the passage is (1)AC has distinct advantages over DC, so AC won the War of the Currents.
Explanation:
The given passage talks about the War between Currents.
There are two types of currents being talked about- DC and AC. The passage tells us that the use of DC was prevalent in the 18th centaury and after development of the AC current, it took over DC and was then used all over the world because it had distinct advantages.
Therefore, the main idea of the passage is AC has distinct advantages over DC, so AC won the War of the Currents.

PLEASE HELP ASAP I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!! A teacher surveys a sample of students from Lake Middle School. He asks the students where they’d like to go for a field trip. He records these results:
80 choose the aquarium.
60 choose the science center.
30 choose the planetarium.
40 choose the farm.
The teacher wants to figure out the relative frequency of a student choosing the aquarium. He will then estimate how many students out of all 1000 at the school are likely to choose the aquarium.
4) Write and solve a proportion that the teacher can use to estimate how many students in the whole school would choose the aquarium. Show your work.
Answer:
8:21
Explanation:
80+60+30+40 = 210 (how many students altogether)
and there are 80 students who chose the aquarium
so -> 80:210
then simplify to -> 8:21
hope this helps :)
Answer:
1. 210 students
2. 80/210 students
3. 8/21 or 38%
4. 8/21 = x/1000 | X = 381 students

Do you believe everyone has a destiny or a plan for their life that they will fill no matter what? Explain your answer with 5-8 sentences.
Explanation:
A prophecy, or prophecies in general, is a prediction of events about to happen in the future. Prophecies can appear in a number of ways, but almost all are cryptic and their true meaning will not become clear until after the events of the prophecy have come to pass. Also, those with the ability to see the future are unable to reveal what a prophecy means, as giving the answer would make the answer irrelevant (meaning that the events in the prophecy could change if the events are told). It is also said that trying to figure out what a prophecy means or trying to force a prophecy to come to pass may result in disaster.
The most common way for a prophecy to be told is from an oracle, most notably the Oracle of Delphi. Even in ancient times, people would come from all over Greece and beyond to see the Oracle, who would speak the prophecies of Apollo. Over time the spirit of the Oracle went from host to host, eventually arriving in America.
