Best Answer

Have can be used as a main verb:

I have lunch at 1:00pm.

This sentence is present simple. It is about something that is true at the moment or possibly something that I do again and again ie a habit.

The verb phrase have had is used to make present perfect:

I have had lunch.

This sentence is present perfect and is about something that has happened (completed) in the recent past and has possibly has some significance now in the present. Have is an auxiliary verb had is the main verb

Do you want lunch?

No thanks I have had lunch.

A simile is a comparison of two ideas or objects, usually using like or as. Her nose is LIKE a waterfall, always running. Her teeth are LIKE stars, they come out at night.

Two cyclists start biking on a trail. Cyclist 2 travels at 10 mph and starts 3 hours after cyclist 1 who is traveling at 6 mph. How much time does it take for cyclist 2 to catch cyclist 1?

ANSWER # 1 It looks like cyclist #2 is out to catch cyclist #1. Our #2 cyclist is starting out 3 hours later than cyclist #1, and is traveling at 10 mph versus the 6 mph of cyclist #1. There are a couple of ways to solve this one, so there is no "right way" to do it. Opting for an easy one, let's think of it this way. Think of it like both cyclists are going the same speed, the 6 mph. Yes, our trailing cyclist can't ever catch the lead cyclist, but this is a short cut, okay? If both cyclists ride, the space between them neither increases or decreases. Here's the scoop. It's the space between them that we're gonna look at. That space is 3 hours long. Here's the thinking. Cyclist #2 is going faster than #1 by 4 mph, and that is the "extra" speed that our #2 cyclist is using to close the gap, to make up that 3 hours. If cyclist #2 is going to make up 3 hours at 4 mph (the differential speed), how much ground is he going to have to make up? Well, cyclist #1 is riding at 6 mph for 3 hours to create the gap. That's 6 time 3 or 18 miles that cyclist #2 is going to have to make up. And our #2 guy is going to have to make up the 18 miles at 4 mph (the differential speed). How long is it going to take him? The 18 miles divided by 4 mph equals 4 ½ hours. Presto. It will take our #2 cyclist that 4 ½ hours to catch up to cyclist #1. If we want to check our work, take cyclist #2's 10 mph speed and multiply by 4 ½ hours and we'll see that he has to ride 45 miles to catch cyclist #1. Let's see what happens for cyclist #1. This cyclist will be riding for 4 ½ hours plus the 3 hour head start. That's 7 ½ hours of riding at 6 mph. The 7 ½ times 6 equals 45 miles. Check! We're good here! ANSWER # 2 1st = 6(x +3) ......... 2nd = 10x 10x = 6(x+3) x = 4 (1/2)
