Evaluating a Satire
Whom or what is Swift criticizing in his satire, and what
techniques does he use to make his point? Write a two-
to three-sentence response, using examples from the
text to support your answer
Answer:
Parallel
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts. If you multiply the top equation by 2, you get:
2(12x + 4y = 16)
24x + 8y = 32
This shows that both lines have the same slope, but then you find the y-intercepts, they are different:
1st equation y-int = 4
2nd equation y-int = 9/2 or 4.5

Answer:
2,340,208.5 or 2,340,209
Step-by-step explanation:
You could answer this by multiplying the current population of 800,000 by 1.05 (1.05 represents the annual growth rate of population) and do that 22 times. But that would take a while.
we got 1.05 because the formula says that y = a( 1 + r ) power t
for a we will give it 1
so y = 1 ( 1 + 0.05) power t
it will give us 1.05
to do this faster, you would first calculate (1.05)22and then multiply this by 800,000.
So, 800,000 x (1.05)22 = 2,340,208.5 or 2,340,209
