Answer:

It's actually "D" the smoking kills one.

Explanation:

Hortatory techniques scare people by appealing to their better judgement - such as smoking. If you smoke, you can die from lung cancer. Don't want lung cancer? Stop smoking.

I got this right on my test for PLATO.

Help me write a passages
Leya [2.2K]

<em>“The inflated style itself is a kind of euphemism. A mass of Latin words falls upon the facts like soft snow, blurring the outline and covering up all the details. The great enemy of clear language is insincerity. When there is a gap between one’s real and one’s declared aims, one turns as it were instinctively to long words and exhausted idioms, like a cuttlefish spurting out ink. In our age there is no such thing as ‘keeping out of politics.’ All issues are political issues, and politics itself is a mass of lies, evasions, folly, hatred, and schizophrenia. When the general atmosphere is bad, language must suffer. I should expect to find — this is a guess which I have not sufficient knowledge to verify — that the German, Russian and Italian languages have all deteriorated in the last ten or fifteen years, as a result of dictatorship.”</em>

You seek to make a 40% return on a $1,500 investment. Apple stock yields a 30% return, while Microsoft stock yields an 80% retur
andriy [413]

Answer:

80% of Apple shares and 20% of Microsoft shares must be acquired.

Explanation:

To determine in what proportion each stock can be purchased, it must be determined how much profit will be obtained according to the percentage in which each stock is subscribed. Thus, acquiring 60% of Apple stocks and 40% of Microsoft, the benefit will be as follows:

((60 x 30) + (40 x 80)) / 100 = X

(1800 + 3200) / 100 = X

5000/100 = X

50 = X

Therefore, the ratio must be greater than 60/40. So, testing an 80/20, the benefit will be as follows:

((80 x 30) + (20 x 80)) / 100 = X

(2400 + 1600) / 100 = X

4000/100 = X

40 = X

Therefore, 80% of Apple shares and 20% of Microsoft shares must be acquired.

"The Interlopers" does not follow a traditional linear plot structure. What elements cause the plot structure to be nonlinear? H
yarga [219]

Answer:

Ulrich and Georg Znaeym are the two explorers who went to forest to explore the land. When they move into deep into the forest they miss the way and both of them are lost. They start losing control over themselves and fear overcomes their confidence. They feel frightened in the dark and suddenly Ulrich sees something in the dark. These were wolves but they did not knew who they were. The climax is not really clear and the author leaves it to the reader to imagine the climax their own way.

Explanation:

The interlopers is written by Saki in 1919. This is a short story whose plot revolves around travelers who are lost in Forest. The author has not ended the story with a clear climax. The ending is left for the readers to imagine the way they want it to end. This is usually a strategy of the authors to indulge the audience and readers into the story.
