Answer:

D

He is more concerned with helping others than with helping himself

Explanation:

I know how Gordon feels, though. Yesterday, it was drizzling pretty hard and I really wanted to get the newspaper out on my sidewalk. I went out there, in my bathrobe, no less, and braved the elements to get that paper. Oh, yeah! My body is still numb from the 10 or 20 raindrops that crashed down on my umbrella. It was harrowing, I tell you.

Esperanza looked up to see Miguel, holding a broom and a dustpan. But he wasn't laughing. She looked down and bit her lip so she wouldn't cry in front of him.He shut the door, then stood in front of her and said, "How would you know how to sweep a floor? The only thing that you ever learned was how to give orders. That is not your fault. Anza, look at me."

Which detail explains how Esperanza must change?

Esperanza sees her brother looking seriously at her.
Esperanza bites her lip and looks down so she won’t cry.
Miguel says she only knows how to give orders to servants.
Miguel tells her that these problems are not her fault.

Answers

Answer:

Miguel says she only knows how to give orders to servants.

Explanation:

This seems the most logical, and I say this with somewhat confidence as I have read Esperanza before. It makes sense because previously, I believe, Esperanza's house had burnt down, and now she must be accustomed to working rather than ordering because she lost everything to the fire. So, in that way, Miguel telling Esperanza that proves that she must change or things will not fare well for her.

Net worth is calculated by: A. subtracting gross income from net income. B. subtracting liabilities from the total value of assets. C. adding gross income to net income. D. adding liabilities to the total value of assets.

Answers

Answer: Value of all assets - Liabilities from total value of assets.

(Answer Choice B)

Net worth is computed by subtracting liabilities from the total value of assets. Thus, option B is correct.

What is net worth?

Net worth is the sum of an individual's or institution's non-financial and financial assets less the sum of its outstanding obligations. Because net financial assets equal financial assets minus outstanding obligations.

Net worth may alternatively be represented as non-financial assets plus net financial assets. It can apply to businesses, people, governments, sectors of the economy such as the banking industry, or whole nations. The formula for computation of the net worth is mentioned as follows:-

Net worth =  Value of all assets - Liabilities from total value of assets.

Therefore, it can be concluded that net worth is calculated by subtracting liabilities from total assets. As a result, option B is correct.
