Additional Details
I did try my book, and other internet sources, and could not find these answers. Teachers are un-askable because it’s an online school, and they sometimes don’t even check their e-mails because they’re tards.

Could you not reword the questions yourself? Also, if it’s just the wording, then why do you need the answers? Somebody could just reword the questions for you.
