Keeping up with the Joneses is not a distinctly American concept. It is simply being jealous of your neighbors and striving to be like them.

lana66690 [7]
What is the central irony used to support the satire in the passage? The king prefers a pretentious son to his more sensible siblings. The king finds great value in a son who has little sense. The king is unable to see that Shadwell is really a poor choice. The king believes that maturity will build more sense in his son.

Inverse of "if you do not understand geometry, then you do not know how to reason deductively”? ​
babymother [125]

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

Which of the following statements is the inverse of "If you do not understand geometry, then you do not know how to reason deductively."?

A. If you reason deductively, then you understand geometry.

B. If you do not reason deductively, then you understand geometry.

C. If you understand geometry, then you reason deductively.

Answer:

The inverse of that statement is:

C. If you understand geometry, then you reason deductively.

Explanation:

To determine the inverse of a statement, we must negate both the hypothesis and the conclusion. In this case, the hypothesis is "if you do not understand geometry." It is already a negative sentence, which means its negation is "if you understand geometry." The same goes for the conclusion "then you do not know how to reason deductively." Its negation is "then you [know how to ] reason deductively." Putting them together, we have "If you understand geometry, then you reason deductively." - letter C

6. In section 1, what does Mather mean by bewitching when he refers to the charges brought against Martha Carrier?​
Verdich [7]

Answer:

He means that Carrier has cast a spell on people.

Explanation:

The word "bewitching" was used in the sense of "wearing a charm", so the author shows that Martha Carrier was accused of witchcraft because, according to her accusers, she had the ability to attract them, dominate them and exercise them a power that was evil, like a charm. These accusations were so powerful that they even had the ability to enchant Martha's inquisitors, making them look for more witnesses and until it was impossible to absorb her from the crime for which she was being tried.

Fences: At the opening of Act I, Scene 2, Rose is hanging up clothes in the early morning, humming and singing to herself. Her s
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Fences

Explanation:

1: THEME OF RACIAL DISCRIMINATION

This is seen in Troy as he wasn't given the chance to participate in playing baseball when he was younger.

Bono observes that Rose wants the fence in order to keep those she love in

Rose also shows that she wants the fence as a source of protector,she shows this by her song.

Troy makes some statements in the book that makes people believe he uses the fence to keep MR. death away,he uses it to demarcate what belongs to him and those on his side. Eg: when he sends Cory out,he tells Cory that his things would be on the other side of the fence.

N:B This above is my opinion and as it is said, literature can have many meanings so use the above to help urself carve out ur own answer❤️
