To [the American slave], your celebration is a sham; your boasted liberty, an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling

vanity; your sounds of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your denunciation of tyrants, brass–fronted impudence; your shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mockery; your prayers and hymns, your sermons and thanksgivings, with all your religious parade and solemnity, are, to Him, mere bombast, fraud, deception, impiety, and hypocrisy - a thin veil to cover up crimes which would disgrace a nation of savages. –Frederick Douglass Why does Douglass use parallelism?

It reinforces the idea that the rights given to others are not extended to African Americans.It addresses the need for equality for all people.It is significant because a prominent leader was suggesting that the unequal treatment of African Americans was in direct opposition to the principles of the Declaration of Independence.African Americans deserve equal treatment and status in American society.It starts with details and uses them to support a more sweeping statement.

You seek to make a 40% return on a $1,500 investment. Apple stock yields a 30% return, while Microsoft stock yields an 80% retur
andriy [413]

Answer:

80% of Apple shares and 20% of Microsoft shares must be acquired.

Explanation:

To determine in what proportion each stock can be purchased, it must be determined how much profit will be obtained according to the percentage in which each stock is subscribed. Thus, acquiring 60% of Apple stocks and 40% of Microsoft, the benefit will be as follows:

((60 x 30) + (40 x 80)) / 100 = X

(1800 + 3200) / 100 = X

5000/100 = X

50 = X

Therefore, the ratio must be greater than 60/40. So, testing an 80/20, the benefit will be as follows:

((80 x 30) + (20 x 80)) / 100 = X

(2400 + 1600) / 100 = X

4000/100 = X

40 = X

Therefore, 80% of Apple shares and 20% of Microsoft shares must be acquired.
