Which sentence most clearly uses figurative language

The cracks in the window forked like arteries.

Explanation:

Figurative language is the use of things like metaphors, personification, and similes. For example, the sentence,  "The raindrops glistened in the sunlight," is not an example of figurative language, but "The raindrops glistened like diamonds in the sunlight" is.

that is the way of a cheater and cheaters get nothing but bad grades and in trouble.

substitute y = 2x - 4 to x + 2y = 12:

x + 2(2x - 4) = 12     use distributive property

x + (2)(2x) + () = 12

x + 4x - 8 = 12     add 8 to both sides

5x = 20     divide both sides by 5

x = 4

put the value of x to the first equation:

y = 2(4) - 4

y = 8 - 4

y = 4
