HOW DOES DOUGLASS USE WORD CHOICE AND LITERARY REFERENCES TO CONFIRM HIS CREDIBILITY

History

Ilya [14]3 years ago

Frederick Douglass was a former slave who was able to attain an impressive level of education. His wisdom and intelligence were often remarked upon by the white population, who were surprised to see how capable he was.

When writing, Douglass often used words that betrayed his level of education. He also presented literary references that made his texts complex and interesting. He used these abilities in order to provide more credibility to his argument. Douglass wanted to demonstrate that black people were just as capable as white people of thinking and learning.

1. What might be the costs of having such a large national debt?
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

1. What might be the costs of having such a large national debt?

When a country has a very large debt like the U.S., people may think that the country will not be able to pay off the debt. It's the same situation as a person who has a lot of debt, even more debt in a year than income in a year: people will believe that he or she will probably not be able to pay off the debt.

When this happens, people will invest less in the economy, the debt will become more expensive because the interest rate will be higher, and this in turn could lead Congress to enact policies such as tax hikes or debt renegotiations, which are always negative for an economy.

2. Did the promise that tax cuts would result in a growing economy that would pay for any  budget shortfalls come true during the Reagan years?

Reagan's tax cuts did not lead to increases in tax revenue. On the contrary, tax revenue, as predicted by many, actually fell. This, in addition to increased military and social security spending, led to large budget deficits during the Reagan administration.

Which cut the confederacy in two
leonid [27]

Answer:

Battle of Vicksburg

Explanation:

The American Revolutionary War was a war of independence of the United States of America that was fought between the 19th of April, 1775 and 3rd of September, 1783. The war started when the delegates from the thirteen (13) American colonies in Congress (First continental congress) revolted against the Great Britain over their lack of representation in the colonies and refusal to give consent to parliament's taxation such as Stamp Act and Townshend Acts.

The Battle of Vicksburg was the last major military action and decisive battle of the Vicksburg Campaign (Western theater of the Civil War). This final battle of the long series of battle started on the 18th of May, 1863 and was lead by Union General, Ulysses S. Grant. It was formally ended on the 4th of July, 1863.

Vicksburg is the city that was founded after the battle gave the Union complete control over the Mississippi River and its tributaries.

Hence, the Battle of Vicksburg was the battle that cut the confederacy in two.

Line p passes through A(-2, -4) and has a slope of 1/2. What is the standard form of the equation for line p?
Lunna [17]

Answer:

The standard form of the equation of the line is -x +2\cdot y = -10.

Explanation:

From Analytical Geometry, we find that the standard form of the equation of the line is:

A\cdot x + B\cdot y = C (1)

Where:

x - Independent variable.

y - Dependent variable.

Besides, a line can be defined by the following formula:

y = m\cdot x + b (2)

Where:

m - Slope.

b - Intercept.

By direct comparison, we find the following relationships:

B\cdot y = -A\cdot x + C

y = -\frac{A}{B} \cdot x + \frac{C}{B}

m = - \frac{A}{B} (3)

b = \frac{C}{B} (4)

If we know that (x,y) = (-2,-4) and m = \frac{1}{2}, then the intercept of the equation is:

b = y-m\cdot x

b = -4+\left(\frac{1}{2} \right)\cdot (-2)

b = -5

If B = 2, then A = -1 and C = -10, and the standard form of the equation is:

-x +2\cdot y = -10 (5)
