7. In order for there to be a Friday the 13th, the month must begin on what day of the week?

Answer: Sunday

There are 7 days in week. So, if Sunday is the 1st, then Friday must be the 6th; 6+7=13, so the second Friday of the month will be a Friday the 13th.

Answer: True

A nickel is worth 5 cents. A dime is worth 10 cents. A quarter is worth 25 cents. 16x5=80c, 2x10=20c, and 80c+20c=$1.00. 3x25=75c, 2x10=20c, and 75c+20c=95c. $1.00 is more than 95c.

Answer: False

Adjectives are words used to describe something. The adjectives in this sentence are hot, tall, and cold. So there are three adjectives.

Only plant cells have chloroplasts. Chloroplasts contain the pigment chlorophyll and help the plant cell work and perform photosynthesis.
