Since the plot of "The Wife of Bath's Tale" has at its heart a loathly lady who shape-shifts into a beautiful, young damsel, we might expect appearances to be important here. And they are, just not for the reason you might think. For instead of this being a tale about how a knight learns to appreciate people for what's on the inside and that outer appearances don't matter, it's a tale about how a knight learns to give up sovereignty to his wife. That sovereignty includes power over the body. The loathly lady's physical appearance becomes an important symbol of that body, so that, at the end of the tale, when she offers her husband a choice about how he wants her to look, she's in essence offering him control of her body. He grants this control back to her, thus proving his understanding of the doctrine of women's sovereignty in marriage. Medieval stories don't necessarily go in for the whole 'appearances don't mean anything' maxim anyway, as we've seen in the "General Prologue<span>."</span>
Answer:
A set of parametric equations for the line y = 4x - 5 is;
x = t
y = 4t - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find a set of parametric equations for the line y = 4x - 5;
We can assign either variable x or y equal to the parameter t, in this case we can easily let x = t
We then substitute x = t in the original equation;
y = 4t - 5
Therefore, a set of parametric equations for the line y = 4x - 5 is;
x = t
y = 4t - 5
Average time for a 35 year old man to run half a marathon is 9:50:38

Answer: 2 inches</h3>
============================================================
Explanation:
The area of any given sheet of paper is 8.5*11 = 93.5 square inches.
Divide the volume over this area to get the height of the stack
187/(93.5) = 2
The stack is 2 inches tall.
Extra info: The thickness of each piece of paper is 2/500 = 0.004 of an inch which approximates to about 0.1016 mm.
