Answer:

Anger.

Explanation:

Langston Hughes's poem "Madam and the Rent Man" is an exchange between the rent collector and the tenant, Madam who refuses to pay for the services she hadn't received. This is a representation of how things remain unsolved, for the parties involved weren't able to see eye to eye.

With the use of the word "listen", the speaker is trying to get the attention of the other people. Then, she also mentions she'd rather "<em>go to Hades and rot away</em>", than pay, ending with an exclamation mark, obviously signifying the emphasis on the emotional stance of the speaker. This is also a representation of the normal situation of the blacks and the whites in their inability to solve their problems, especially with the whites refusing to listen to the blacks. Hughes uses this poem to show the real life situation, where the person complaining is talking sense, but it doesn't reach the right person for the problems to be solved.

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

first

Explanation:

The answer is "first"

The Abundance Nursery requires a huge number of unskilled employees to maintain and harvest the flower fields. The place where the nursery is located, there is a large supply of unskilled workers.

So the Abundance Nurseries should use the first-quartile approach to compensation strategy for the employees.

For every job there is a salary grade and the employers used this to place their employees into this salary grade depending upon the qualifications, past experience, skill sets, abilities, etc.

The salary grade has been classified into four quartiles namely --

1st quartile

2nd quartile

3rd quartile

4th quartile

The 1st quartile is used when the employees are new to the job and still in the learning process. The employees meets the minimum qualification and have less or very little experience and skills.

Thus the answer is first quartile.
