The figure is not marked in any way that would indicate it is a parallelogram. If we assume it is, then
... BE = DE
... 10x -3 = 8x -1 . . substitute the given expressions
... 2x = 2 . . . . . . . . add 3-8x
... x = 1 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
The appropriate choice is ...
... A. 1 unit
_____
Since the figure is not marked to indicate BE=DE, you could argue that any answer is correct.
From the perspective of enslaved African Americans, slavery ended before the passage of the 13th Amendment because of the Emancipation Proclamation. It is important to note that the Emancipation Proclamation did not officially end slavery, but it did provide the impetus for subsequent legislation. The Emancipation Proclamation took effect on January 1, 1863 and granted freedom to all enslaved persons in states that were in rebellion against the Union. It also inspired enslaved African Americans to leave Southern plantations in large numbers and flee toward Union lines. Union troops were forced to make provisions for these enslaved people within their ranks.
President Lincoln would argue that the Emancipation Proclamation was simply a strategic move designed to destabilize the southern states. It did not apply to border states and it was null and void if the rebellious state returned to the Union. Moreover, because the southern states had seceded, they were no longer under the authority of the federal government, thus Lincoln had no authority over them
Enslaved people played an important role in the war as soldiers (those who escaped) and as laborers in the South for the Confederacy. They served as spies for the North.
Answer:
Minimalism emerged in New York in the early 1960s among artists who were self-consciously renouncing recent art they thought had become stale and academic. A wave of new influences and rediscovered styles led younger artists to question conventional boundaries between various media
Explanation:
Light waves are transmitted across the cornea and enter the eyes through the pupil.
<h3>
FURTHER EXPLANATION</h3>
The eyes and the brain are important in helping people see. Light passes through the eyes and this light gets transformed into electrical signals which are sent to the brain that helps make sense of the object that is seen.
<h3 /><h3>How People See</h3>
- Light is incident on an object (or strikes an object). Some of it get absorbed, some are reflected into a human's eye.
- Light that bounces off the object is transmitted across the cornea, the transparent outer layer of the eye. It refracts the light and makes things look sharp and clear.
- Then the light enters the pupil which is the opening in the eye controlled by the iris or the colored part of the eye. The iris changes the size of the pupil and controls the amount of light that enters the eye. When there is bright light, the pupil becomes smaller. In dim light, the opposite happens and the pupil becomes bigger.
- At the back of the pupil is the lens which again helps focus the light. Its shape changes depending on the distances of the objects that is being looked at.
- The light rays are focused by the lens so that they all converge in the retina which is at the back of the eye. The retina has many specialized cells which are sensitive to light. These cells transform light energy into electrical signals or nerve impulses which form a rough inverted image of the object the person is looking at.
- The electrical signals travel to the brain through the optic nerve. The brain turns the image upright and adds more detail to the vision.
