A+b+c= 180
<span>a = ?
</span><span>b = 2a - 10 (twice a minus 10)
</span><span>c = b + 25 (25 more than b)
</span><span>Substitute for b
c = (2a-10) + 25
</span><span>Now substitute back into a+b+c=180
a + (2a-10) + (2a-10+25) = 180
</span><span>Eliminate the parentheses
a + 2a - 10 + 2a - 10 + 25 = 180
</span><span>Combine like terms
5a + 5 = 180
</span><span>Subtract 5 from both sides
5a = 175
</span><span>Divide both sides by 5
a = 35
</span><span>Substitute into the equation for b.
b = 2a -10 = 2*35 - 10 = 70 - 10 = 60
</span><span>Add 25 to b to get c.
c = 60 + 25 = 85</span><span>Check by adding them up.
35 + 60 + 85 = 180
Done.</span>

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Shakespeare uses the language of the characters to achieve this multifaceted quality. Through the use of language (specifically Iago, Othello, and Desdemona), Shakespeare propels the plot, engages the audience, creates dramatic irony, and reveals the characters’ psyches.
