Answer:

Crucible is a famous drama by Arthur Miller.

Explanation:

Inspired by true events from the late 17th century in Salem, a place in Massachusetts that became known precisely for witch-hunting and their public trial, Miller wrote Crucible in the early 1950s.
But the author is actually talking about the phenomenon of mass hysteria that plagued American society during the "McCarthy" era (Joseph Raymond McCarthy), when a secret investigation into a large number of government members suspected of spying on behalf of the Communists was launched in the United States.
Miller noted the similarity between that event and the Salem witch hunt.
In doing so, this story acquires deeper meanings, expressing the intolerance, blindness, and persecution of people, ideas, at any given time.
The writer has sharply attacked McCarthy, as an idiot who is chasing honest Americans because they have a different opinion from the senator.

Answer:

Mileage = $71

Loading/Unloading Fee: -$980

Explanation:

The question has incomplete details. The complete question can be found online. The given parameters are:

Situation A

$Helpers = 6$

$Distance =95$

$Cost = 865$

Situation B

$Helpers = 5$

$Distance = 80$

$Cost = 780$

Solving (a): The equation.

Let

x = loading/unloading fee

y = mileage fee

For situation A, the equation will be:

$Cost = 6 * x + 95 * y$

$Cost = 6 x + 95y$

$6 x + 95y = 865$

For situation B, the equation will be:

$Cost = 5* x + 80*y$

$Cost = 5x + 80y$

$5x + 80y = 780$

So, the equations are:

$6 x + 95y = 865$

$5x + 80y = 780$

Solving (b): The solution

$6 x + 95y = 865$ --- (1)

$5x + 80y = 780$ --- (2)

Multiply (1) by 5 and multiply (2) by 6 to eliminate x

$5 * [$ $6 x + 95y = 865$ $]$

$30x + 475y = 4325$

$6*[$ $5x + 80y = 780$ $]$

$30x + 480y = 4680$

Subtract the resulting equations

$30x - 30x + 475y - 480y = 4325 - 4680$

$-5y = -355$

Divide both sides by -5

$y = 71$

Substitute $y = 71$ in (1)

$6 x + 95y = 865$

$6x + 95 * 71 = 865$

$6x + 6745 = 865$

Collect like terms

$6x =- 6745 + 865$

$6x =-5880$

Divide both sides by 6

$x =-980$

The solution is correct but does not represent real life situation because x should be positive
