Answer:

Because it made him to remember, and feel the loss and pain of Myrtles' death.

Explanation:

Tom describes his feelings to Nick to let him know that he has his own share of the loss. He was reminded of Myrtle, the wife of his mechanic, his symphathetic mistress who was killed by Daisy in a car accident. If Myrtle were to be alive, the box would have not been there.

Earlier before the incident, Tom and Gatsby had exchanged their cars. Daisy alone was driving the car when the accident occurred. But Gatsby tells Nick that Daisy killed Myrtle but he will take the blame.

What is a trust? a large company that consists of two merged businesses multiple businesses that combine and operate in one stat

Gala2k [10]

____________________________________________________

Answer:

D). A large company or combined businesses that control a specific market

____________________________________________________

A trust is D). a large company or combined businesses that control a specific market.

____________________________________________________

Explanation:

The reason why this would be your answer is because a trust is a company or a group of companies that control a specific business in the market place, and the different companies cooperate with each other to be successful in the market. Answer choice D clearly describes companies that are cooperating in a specific market. The words "large company," "combined businesses," or "specific market" gives you a hint to your answer. Companies that are in a trust control a specific market together. Companies that trust with each other if they're part of a different market. For example, Samsung can't trust with Food4Less because they're not in the same market, Samsung markets in electronics, while Food4Less markets in food or produce. It doesn't say any necessary details that don't apply to a trust between businesses.

____________________________________________________

Why the other answer choices are wrong:

A). a large company that consists of two merged businesses is INCORRECT because a trust could have more than 2 businesses that are cooperating together. There is no maximum amount of businesses to trust.

B). multiple businesses that combine and operate in one state is INCORRECT because different businesses don't need to be in the same state in order to be a trust. There are businesses in the world that are cooperating together internationally. Businesses could be thousands of miles apart, but still could trust.

C). a business that buys another business is INCORRECT because if a business buys another business, that is not being a trust. There is no form of cooperation in buying a business, the business that bought the other business is technically in control of that business.

How was life like in polis

Otrada [13]

Answer:

A polis (plural: poleis) was the typical structure of a community in the ancient Greek world. A polis consisted of an urban centre, often fortified and with a sacred centre built on a natural acropolis or harbour, which controlled a surrounding territory (chora) of land. The term polis has, therefore, been translated as ‘city-state’ as there was typically only one city and because an individual polis was independent from other poleis in terms of political, judicial, legal, religious and social institutions and practices, each polis was in effect a state. Like a state, each polis was also involved in international affairs, both with other poleis and non-Greek states in the areas of trade, political alliances and wars. Other cultures had a similar social and political structure, notably, the Babylonians, Etruscans and Phoenicians, and the latter are believed to be the originators of the polis as a communal unit.

The polis emerged from the Dark Ages which followed the fall of the Mycenaean civilization in Greece and by the 8th century BCE a significant process of urbanisation had begun. There were eventually over 1,000 poleis in the Greek World but among the most important were Athens, Sparta, Corinth, Thebes, Syracuse, Aegina, Rhodes, Argos, Eretria, and Elis. The biggest was Sparta, although with some 8,500 km² of territory, this was exceptionally large and most poleis were small in size. However, poleis such as Athens, Rhodes and Syracuse possessed significant naval fleets which also allowed them to control wide areas of territory across the Aegean
