Which sentence uses parallelism correctly?

English
1 answer:
Brut [27]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The sentence that uses parallelism correctly is:

03. The officers in the tent included a colonel, a major, and a lieutenant.

Explanation:

Parallelism consists of the repetition of a certain grammatical structure inside a sentence, and it is particularly useful when listing things. In the sentence we are analyzing here, the speaker is listing the people who could be found in the tent. For parallelism to happen here, those people must be mentioned in similar ways. For instance, if the speaker begins by "one colonel" and then shifts to "a lieutenant", the change from "one" to "a" breaks parallelism. It may happen, and it is not necessarily wrong, depending on what meaning the author wishes to convey. But the question here is to find parallelism and, in this case, it can be found in sentence 03, which uses the article "a" before each person:

03. The officers in the tent included a colonel, a major, and a lieutenant.

What is the length of a segment with endpoints at (-3, 4) and (4, 4)?
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

D. 7

Explanation:

distance from (x_1, y_1) to (x_2, y_2) =

²√ (x_2 – x_1)² + (y_2 – y_1)².

Since y_1 and y_2 are the same, the segment length is simply the difference between x_2 and x_1.

thus the length of a segment with endpoints at (-3, 4) and (4, 4) is 4 - (-3) = 4 + 3 = 7.

African men were given the right to vote , However what were some major problems with this ?
12345 [234]

Answer: Hope this helps.

Explanation: States still found ways to circumvent the Constitution and prevent blacks from voting. Poll taxes, literacy tests, fraud and intimidation all turned African Americans away from the polls. Until the Supreme Court struck it down in 1915, many states used the "grandfather clause " to keep descendents of slaves out of elections. The clause said you could not vote unless your grandfather had voted -- an impossibility for most people whose ancestors were slaves.
