You are given the number of college students which is 2860. You are also given the male percentage in that college which is 70%. You are asked to find the number of female students. This is a percentage problem. You need to multiply 70% or 0.70 to 2860 and you get the number of male students. Then subtract this value to the total number of students and you will get the number of female students.

Number of male students = 0.7 * 2860 = 2002
Number of female students = 2860 – 2002 = 858

If we know that 70% are male, 30% must be female...

30% as a decimal is 0.3

0.3 x 2860 = 858

So, there are 858 female students:)

In this excerpt, the author characterizes Karim's actions to reveal that Karim

zhenek [66]

Full question: Read the excerpt from Iqbal.

It's true that Karim did everything the master wanted and that he supervised us, because otherwise he would have had nowhere to go and nothing to eat, but he would never have had the courage to peek into the master's windows. It was big trouble for anyone to go near the house.

In this excerpt, the author characterizes Karim’s actions to: reveal that Karim is unafraid of Hussain Khan. is dependent on Hussain Khan. enjoys working for Hussain Khan. wants to leave Hussain Khan.

Answer: Is dependent on Hussain Khan.

Explanation:

We can see at the beginning of the excerpt that Karim did everything that the master wanted because without him there would be nothing to eat and live which means that he is dependent on his master.

The narrator is clearly showing his dependence and he is dependent on him because those things that he is working for him are bringing him things that are important for his living. If he doesn't do everything for his master, there would be no life for him, he would not have food or home.

Read the excerpt below from the poem “Ulalume” by Edgar Allan Poe and answer the question that follows.

harina [27]

Alliteration is the repetition of a word of sound within the same phrase, such as "Ulalume"; Asonance is a vowel coincidence in the termination of two words, such as "it was night in the lonesome october

of my most immemorial year"; the consonance is an unmotivated use of words that are very close for each other, such as " we noted not the dim lake of Auber- (though once we had journeyed down here)"; and the poetic image describes something real through words, such as "these are days when my heart was volcanic", which explains his heart beats too strong.
