She can fit 3 squares along the 10 inch side and 6 squares along the 18 inch side. When you multiply 3 by 6 you get 18.
The answer is not 20 because you cannot fit 20 3x3 squares.

Answer: Hi there! I read "Harlem" last week in my English class and would love to help you out! Please see the "Explanation" section for a (hopefully) elaborate answer.

Explanation: I wrote a simple version of this poem in bullets.

  • If a dream would shrivel like a raisin in the sun, it would change into something so different that it wasn’t before.
  • If a dream were to fester a sore, it would irritate and hurt someone badly. This could cause them to do something bad then run away.
  • If a dream were to fail and crust over like sugar, that means that the diminished dream doesn't hurt you much.
  • If someone would let their dream rot like meat, they’d have to lose all faith and hope, letting their dream go to waste like it was nothing.
  • If a dream was to sag like a heavy load, it would slow the person down into thinking more about the dream, instead of working on trying to make the dream come true.  
  • When a dream doesn’t come true, one can become too stressed and mentally and emotionally explode, leading to an act of self-harm or something one would regret.

What do you think this post (poet??) is saying?

I believe that Langston Hughes' poem best describes the many results of dreams (or ambitions) and how they can affect one's state of mind. Some effects of dreams can be benign while others reveal themselves to be detrimental.

This explanation is just my interpretation, and you are free to disagree with or change anything mentioned. Good luck with your assignment! :)

Read the sentence. first thing in the morning, heather takes her dog for a walk. what verb tense is used in this sentence? prese
Kruka [31]
Because this is a subject of verb tenses, we focus on the verbs used in the given sentence. That would be 'takes'. To know which verb tense this is, let us examine each of the choices.

Present: Present tense verbs are expressed in their basic forms such as help, take, give, type, etc.

Present emphatic: This verb tense is used to give emphasis. It's hint word is the word 'does'. For example: She does take her dog to walk first thing in the morning.

Present progressive: This is written as 'is' + 'verb-ing' or 'are' + 'verb-ing'. For example: She is taking her dog for a walk.

Present perfect: This is written as 'has' or 'have' + past participle of the verb. For example: She has taken the dog for a walk.

So, from the descriptions, the sentence must be in simple present tense.
