<span>The Declaration of Independence is structured in five fundamental parts: Introduction, the Preamble, the Charge of George III, the Denunciation of the British, and the Conclusion. The Introduction contains statements stating that people have the ability to assume political independence under Natural Law. Followed by the Preamble which contains the summary of the general philosophy of government that justifies a revolution when the government damages natural rights. The Accusation is a list of "repeated insults and usurpations." The Denunciation, speaks of the end of the case of independence. The Conclusion shows that the signatories affirm that there are conditions under which the people must change their government, and it is necessary that the colonies announce their separation and dissolve their ties with the British crown. Firmantes, the first and famous signature in the official version is John Hancock, the president of the Continental Congress. Two future presidents, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, are signatories.</span>
Answer:
The option which best states the author's overall purpose in this text is:
D. To inform the reader of a theory that attempts to explain why generations act the way they do.
Explanation:
I looked this question up and found out it concerns the text "What Past Generations Can Teach Us About Our Future," by former Newsweek correspondent Mike Kubic (born in 1927).
According to the article, Strauss & Howe developed a theory that explains and, in a way, even predicts how each generation will act. There are four "turnings" or stages which generations go through. According to Strauss & Howe's observations, these stages always happen in the same order: high, awakening, unraveling, and crisis. The generation belonging to each turning will always present certain traits and behaviors concerning their sense of community, individualism, economic prosperity, respect for institutions, etc.
<u>According to Kubic, this theory has been both praised and criticized, even though, so far, it has been able to successfully make predictions about the American society. However, it is important to note that Kubic does not praise or criticize it himself. All he does is describe and explain it. His purpose is to inform readers about the existence of the theory.</u>
This isn't an English Question but...
What you do first is find the LCD (Least Common Denominator)
You do this by finding the factors of 16 and seeing if they correspond with two.
So you're factors are, (1,16) (2,8) (4,4)
So the LCD is 2. You would then make each fraction over two. Since 1/2 is already over 2 you would make 5/16 over two by dividing by 8.
That gives you .347 or 347/1000
Then you would add each whole number, 24 + 2. This gives you 26 and then add the decimel. 26.347
There is probably a simpler way but here's mine.
