Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. The remaining part of the question reads;
the first paragraph;
<em>I spent my teens and much of my twenties collecting printed rejections. Early on, my mother lost $61.20—a reading fee charged by a so-called agent to look at one of my unpublished stories. No one had told us that agents weren’t supposed to get any money upfront, weren’t supposed to be paid until they sold your work. Then they were to take ten percent of whatever the work earned. Ignorance is expensive. That $61.20 was more money back then than my mother paid for a month’s rent.</em>
The last sentence of the first paragraph (“That . . . month’s rent”) primarily serves to
A. <em>justify an action by invoking an ethical principle</em>
B. clarify a point by defining an ambiguous term
C. show how anecdotal evidence supports a claim
<em>D. provide meaningful context for a revealing statistic</em>
<em>E. demonstrate that a common practice has harmful effect</em>
Answer:
<u><em>D. provide a meaningful context for a revealing statistic</em></u>
Explanation:
By saying, "<em>That $61.20 was more money back then than my mother paid for a month’s rent" </em>the narrator had revealed a very interesting statistic about the value of money back then.
In other words, the context surrounding the statement helps the average reader quickly understand that a month's rent used to be <em>lesser</em> than $61.20; very interesting statistics at that.
I would believe the conclusion or the plot. I'm not certain so I could be wrong.
Other assumptions associated with this question are as follows:
- One person can feed on 1 hen/day for a year
- 1 hen must east 25 grasshoppers /day
- the total mass of 1000 grasshoppers is 1kg
- 600 grasshoppers are needed to feed 1 human per day
Grasshoppers is represented as Gh.
The total amount needed to feed the hen per year is:
- If expressed in Kg, then it would be 9,125/1000 which is
- = 9.125Kg/annum.
So if the farmer chose to live on grasshoppers rather than on hens, the calculation is given as follows:
- (90 kg/1 hour) x (24 hours/1 day) x (1 person/ 600 Gh)
The amount of Grasshoppers required is given as follows;
If the farmer can gather 90 Gh in one hour then,
- The total amount of Gh per day is 90 x 24 = 2,160
- the total amount of Gh available in a year is 2160 x 365 = 788,400 Gh/Year
- If 600 grasshoppers are quired to feed the human per day, then we work backward
- The total amount of Gh available in a day is 788,400/365. This is equal to 2160 Gh
- The total amount of people this can feed is given as 2,160/600
- Which is equal to 3.6 persons.
Since humans or people cannot be divided into fractions like a measure of sugar or a measure of liquid, the answer is best left to the most approximate digit with it 4 Persons.
