Answer: They change the mood of the play in that they bring topics such as greediness, selfishness and even death. The author immediately builds suspense when these characters enter the play.

Explanation:

The Crucible is a play written by Arthur Miller in 1953. It tells a story about the Salem witch trials in the Massachusetts Bay Colony (1692-93). In the story, Thomas Putnam is a wealthy man who refuses to forgive Francis Nurse from sabotaging Putnam's brother-in-law in his election to the office of minister. Putnam has become rich through accusing people of witchcraft. He is married to Ann Putnam.

The first appearance of the Putnams is in <em>Act I</em>. The author immediately builds suspense around their characters:

"<em>Enter Mrs. Ann Putnam. She is a </em><em>twisted soul</em><em> of forty-five, a </em><em>death-ridden </em><em>woman, haunted by dreams. "</em>

We find out that Ann has given birth to eight babies, seven of which died. The entrance of Mr and Mrs Putnam, therefore, introduces the topics of death, greediness and selfishness.

I would say the correct answer is <span>c. greatly distressed. These lines describe desperate attempts to live a normal life, to reinvent its meaning, to try to enjoy it once again and recreate some sense within the terrible predicament. This is not optimism - it's a desperate (and vain) attempt to reach for some optimism. It is not depression either - a depressed person doesn't even try.</span>

Answer:

C) Discrimination and lack of job opportunities

Explanation:

Lack of job opportunities and racial discrimination remained the top factors for black migration to the North and West. The advent of World War II contributed to an exodus out of the South, with 1.5 million African Americans leaving during the 1940s; a pattern of migration that would continue at that pace for the next twenty years.

PLEASE help me guys :)
kolbaska11 [484]

so the answer is 15°

the circle is 360°

one green angle is 50°

so 4 green angles equals 200°

so 360 minus 200 equals 60.

so 60° angle. and as a result the rest of the angles are 60° of the circle. and so each of the angles are... 15° if the 60 is divided by 4.
