What obstacles has Odysseus faced so far on his road of trials? Check all that apply.
arsen [322]

Answer:

Lord Helios, the sun god, has killed Odysseus's men for eating his cattle.

The crew has been attacked by an army at Cicones.

Zeus has sent a huge sea storm.

Some of the men have eaten the lotus flower and had to be rescued.

Explanation:

During his return home after the Trojan War, Odysseus ends up on the island of Cyclops Polyphemus. Odysseus enters the giant's cave with his men. When Polyphemus returns, he prevents them from leaving the cave, covering the entrance with a boulder. Then, he rips open and eats some of the crew. With the crew in mind, he quickly devises an escape plan. He tells Polyphemus that his name is "Nobody" and gives him wine to drink. The drunk giant falls asleep. Odysseus and his crew find a wooden pole, set it on fire and strike Polyphemus in the eye, blinding him. As Polyphemus screams in pain, the other cyclopians on the island respond to his call. Being outside the cave, they ask him who hurt him. Polyphemus replies, "Nobody's killing me," so the rest of the Cyclops leave him. Finally, Odysseus manages to escape and taunts the cyclops, who prays to his father Poseidon for revenge.

The main character's journey home takes him to the mermaid island. Sirens singing beautifully attract sailors who, listening, steer their ships towards the rocks. Odysseus plugs his people's ears with beeswax so they won't hear them sing. He himself wants to hear the sirens sing, so he orders the crew to tie him to the mast so he cannot go to the sirens when he hears their voices. Accordingly, the crew releases Odysseus after he begins to act calmly. Only then do they take the wax out of their ears.

After departing from the mermaid island area, Odysseus ends up on the island of Ogygia. It is inhabited by the nymph Calypso, who, in love with Odysseus, forces him to stay with her - it lasts 7 years. Hermes later comes to Calypso saying that the gods said she has to free Odysseus. Calypso promises Odysseus immortality if he stays, but he decides to return to his wife Penelope. Then he builds a raft and leaves the island.

After a sea storm, Odysseus ends up on Feaki Island. There, Nauzykaa meets him, who takes him to the palace of her father, King Alkinoos. While staying with the king, Odysseus recounts his adventures in his travels after the Trojan War. Alkinoos then gives Odysseus a ship and sends him to his home country, Ithaca.

Pickles cost $5 per quart at the local farmers' market. Another vendor sells them for $19 per
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

3$

Explanation:

For the first vendor, the pickles cost $5 per quart and since there are 4 quarts in a gallon, 5$ x 4 quarts= $20 per gallon.

For the second vendor, the pickles cost 19$ per gallon.

You want to buy 3 gallons of pickles. If you were to buy from the first vendor, then it would be 20$ x 3 gallons= 60$

The second vendor would be 19$ x 3 gallons= 57$

60$ - 57$= 3$ which is what you save in total
