Answer:

Explanation:

Many literary devices fall under the category of "figure of speech," which previous Educators have identified in preceding answers. This answer will call attention to those figures of speech in "If" which are commonly understood maxims or scenarios in English-speaking culture. There are indeed certain tropes which we turn to time and again to make meaningful comparisons to real life phenomena.

Which ordered pairs are solutions to the inequality y−4x≤−6y−4x≤−6 ? select each correct answer. (3, 5)(3, 5) (−2, −14)(−2, −14)
Dafna11 [192]
Y - 4x ≤ -6y - 4x ≤ -6
We add 6y and 4x to each equality
7y ≤ 0 ≤ 6y + 4x -6

Observing:
7y ≤ 0, we see that the values of y can be only negative or 0, not positive.
So we are left with (-2,-14) (-1,-9) (0,-5)
We check the second equality:
6y + 4x - 6 ≥ 0 for these 3
None of the inequalities satisfy the given expressions simultaneously.

seropon [69]

Answer:

The answer are the words "stalk and defenseless."

Explanation:

The words that make it obvious how the author feels about the birds are stalk and defenseless because the author is describing how the fish in the lake fall victim to the birds. It seems the author does not like the birds for their instinct to stalk their prey by watching the fish in the lake closely. The author seems dismayed that it would only take the ospreys a moment to catch the fish who have no way to defend themselves against the birds.
