Answer:

Explanation:No Sugar is a postcolonial play written by Indigenous Australian playwright Jack Davis, set during the Great Depression, in Northam, Western Australia, Moore River Native Settlement and Perth. The play focuses on the Millimurras, an Australian Aboriginal family, and their attempts at subsistence.

The play explores the marginalisation of Aboriginal Australians in the 1920s and 1930s in Australia under the jurisdiction of a white government. The pivotal themes in the play include racism, white empowerment and superiority, Aboriginal disempowerment, the materialistic values held by the white Australians, Aboriginal dependency on their colonisers, and the value of family held by Aboriginal people.

The play was first performed by the Playhouse Company in association with the Australian Theatre Trust, for the Festival of Perth on 18 February 1985. It also was chosen as a contribution to Expo 86 in Canada[1][2] No Sugar forms the first part of a trilogy, the First Born Trilogy, which also includes the titles The Dreamers and Barungin (Smell the Wind). The trilogy was first performed by the Melbourne Theatre Company in May 1988 at the Fitzroy Town Hall.[3] The play won the 1987 Western Australian Premiers Award[4] and in 1992 the Kate Challis RAKA Award for Indigenous Playwrights.[5]

The play utilises the perambulant model, which is a technique used in drama to dislocate the audience involving multiple points of focus. Throughout No Sugar it is employed to convey a sense of displacement to the audience, representative of the isolation felt by the Aboriginal people unable and unwilling to assimilate to white culture.

What is the value of x in the equation 0.2(x<br> 1. 0.5x = –0.3(x – 4)?
konstantin123 [22]

X=1.5

To get this answer you must distribute the -0.3 to the x and -4 in the parentheses.  Once you distribute you should have .5x= -.3x+1.2. Next you add together both x's to get .8x=1.2. Divide .8 on both sides to get x=1.5.
