Hey there Miyanna!
Algebraic Question::
**Question: 3p - 2 = -29**
Explanation:
We have to find the number furthest away from the variable "p" (not include the -29) That would be 2!
So we put the number 2 next to the -29 and make the operation a "+" as it has become opposite, prior to its operation before.
So, -29 + 2 = -27
The next number furthest away from "p" would be 3!
So we drag that down to -27 and divide it as it's operation has become opposite:
-27 / 3 = -9!
**Answer: -9
Hope this helped :)

Answer:
The author couldn't follow his dreams because of the job market failure. He was an English major and wanted to be a writer but couldn't get the job. He tried for several months to get a job with no luck until he heard about an opening in a newspaper business. Nobody wanted the job so he took it. He didn't believe he could be a reporter because he never thought about it before. He wanted to write, not ask questions.
The failure of the job market shaped a motivator externally in the short story. If the job market was thriving, he would have probably found a writing job somewhere else instead of the reporter job he took. He would have never found his true passion for reporting with the failure.
Notice the Irony?
