8 0

Answer:

Analysis of Character in “Everyday Use” and The Heiress. In Alice Walker's famous short story “Everyday Use,” Dee is perceived as an unsympathetic character. It is difficult for the reader to feel compassion for Dee since she possesses repelling characteristics; she is as authoritative, manipulative, and self-absorbed.

Bess [88]

Mustufa ran the 100-meter and 200-meter races (but the one he had trained for the hardest was the 400-meter competition).

This is the only answer that is grammatically correct. Parentheses cannot just be place anywhere in a sentence. They are used to add extra information for clarity or information that is an aside). An aside is something that is not the main part of the discussion. In this sentence, the main point is that Mustufa ran the sprint races. The extra information is that he trained for the mid-distance race.

Solve by elimination
quester [9]

-3x+y = -28

-x-6y = -3

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Eliminate x:

-3x+y=-28

-x-6y=-3

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

-3x+y=-28

-3(-1)x-3(-6)y=(-3)(-3)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

3x-1y=28

3x+18y=9

19y=-19

Therefore:

19y=-19

÷19   ÷19

y=\frac{-19}{19}

y=1

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

3x-1y=28

y=-1

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

3x-1(-1)=28

3x+1=28

    -1    -1

3x=28-1

3x=27

÷3  ÷3

x=\frac{27}{3}

↑ They cancel each other out

x=9

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

x=9

y=-1

Answer is: (9,-1)

What will the Duck do to make the Kangaroo feel comfortable
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

The Duck will sit silently on the Kangaroo, cover her wet webbed feet with woolen socks, and be on her best behavior, doing nothing but "Quack".

Explanation:

In the story of the Duck and the Kangaroo, a bored Duck wanted to explore the world outside of the pond where she lives. So, she made a request to a Kangaroo to carry her on his back while he hops to different parts.

Although agreeing to the Duck's plan, the Kangaroo had one objection- the Duck's wet, cold feet might affect his joints. So, the duck got woolen socks to cover her wet webbed feet, smoke cigars to keep herself warm, and also use a cloak. Moreover, she also promised to sit quietly on his back and do nothing but "Quack" so that the Kangaroo will feel comfortable.

Why are hoax succesful
monitta
I will help you! So, What makes a hoax successful? Well, this is the answer: <span>The recipe to a successful hoax requires several important elements, as exemplified by Barnum’s short story, </span><span>The Life of Joice Heth, the Nurse of George Washington. </span><span>Although the line between a believable hoax and an unreasonable tale can be ambiguous, Barnum toes this line and masters the art of deception by crafting his story to fascinate his readers while keeping it relatively realistic. His success can be attributed to the ignorance of his audience, among other convenient coincidences and artful techniques. Around 1835, when this story was published, many people weren’t as informed about medical and health concerns as they are today. Thus, the idea of a living 161-year-old woman might have seemed probable and even miraculous to many. Additionally, Barnum used reputable sources like the </span><span>New York Evening Star </span>and<span> Providence Daily Journal </span><span>to support his arguments, which only boosted his credibility. Mainly, Barnum used details regarding Joice Heth’s life and a real certification that she was George Washington’s slave to convince his audience that she really existed. Furthermore, he offered to let others see her in a circus, which appealed those who did and did not believe in the tale because the believers wanted to see the real deal and the non-believers wanted to see proof that it was all a hoax. In the end, Barnum effectively creates a successful hoax by teetering along the line between a conceivable story and ridiculous myth to craft a convincing argument that appealed to the general public. However, falling too far over this line with a tale too ridiculous could discredit the author and fatally reduce his/her reputation. 

Hope I helped! :) Can you mark me as brainliest please.

Part A How did the experience of witnessing the “white men, who came, year after year, to cheat [Native Americans] and take away
frutty [35]
1. I would say the correct answer is C. <span>It led him to believe that violent resistance to white people is both necessary and justified. The problem was not just the taking away of Native American lands; the problem was that the white men cheated. Black Hawk was a famous war leader in more than one conflict, aligning even with the white men from Britain and Canada against their common enemy.

2. In my opinion, the correct answer is D. </span><span>He uses ethos, suggesting his behavior was an ethical and just reaction against the deceitful and immoral behavior of the white men. He isn't trying to manipulate his audience's opinion. He appeals to ethos, relying on their capability to recognize the right and justified cause. When the land where they lived was devastated, of course they were right to do something about it.</span>
