Answer:

Explanation:

Susan = 50 miles per hour

Ellen = 60 miles per hour

Total miles to and from Newyork and Boston= 220 miles

In twenty minutes, Susan drives

50 miles = 60 minutes

1 minute= 50/60= 0.833 miles

20 minutes = 0.833×20=16.667 miles

Ellen is 60 miles per hour

Therefore she drives:

60 miles= 60 minutes

1 mile = 1 minute

In 1 hour 40 minutes Ellen would be 100 miles into getting to Boston and in 2 hours Susan would be 100 miles towards New York

How does Baldwin characterize the “American Negro slave” in paragraph 17? Use details to support your answer.
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

He characterized the American Negro Slave as unique of all the black slaves of the world because his identity was impossible to trace unlike the other slaves like the Haitians who could trace their origin to some African kings.

Explanation:

James Baldwin in Paragraph 17 of his essay, 'Stranger in the Village', mentioned that the American Negro Slave was unique of all the black slaves in the world because while the other Slaves could still trace their identities down to somewhere, the American Negro Slave could only trace his identity to the bill of sale which was the entrance paper of his forebears into the American society.

Some Haitians could trace their origin to some African kings but that was quite difficult for an American Negro slave to do. Thus, came his search for his identity within the American society.

In Dante's inferno, hell is divided into several levels, and the punishment/torture that given to humans would be most severe as the sinners go down to the lower levels. The first level on Dante's circle of hell is given to the people who do not believe in Christianity while the lowest level is given to the traitors of christianity.
