Answer: No. The assistant is wrong as 334 tickets were sold at the door and 409 tickets were sold before the tournament.

Explanation:

To know if the number of tickets sold at the door and before the tournament as stated by the assistant is correct, we've to solve the equation given.

x + y = 743 ......... i

x – y = 75 ........... ii

Add the equations together

2x = 818

Divide both side by 2

2x/2 = 818/2

x = 409

Since x + y = 743

Therefore, 409 + y = 743

y = 743 - 409

y = 334

Therefore, 334 tickets were sold at the door and 409 tickets were sold before the tournament.

Therefore, the assistant is wrong as 334 tickets were sold at the door and 409 tickets were sold before the tournament.

Answer:

No, the assistant’s solution is incorrect. The solution (334, 409) satisfies the first equation, but not the second. The assistant mixed up the numbers. The solution should be (409, 334)

The answer is: The author highlights a woman’s inability to borrow money without a man’s signature.

To be able to borrow some money from the bank, the character Nora needed a man to sign the papers for her. Since she couldn't let her husband know about it, she seems to have forged her father's signature to receive the loan.


Context:

The conversation in this excerpt reveals a plot complication in the story. Nora borrowed money from the bank without her husband's knowledge of the fact. She had needed the money to take her husband to Italy when he was sick. Nora lied to him, telling him she had gotten the money from her father.

Krogstad works at the bank with Nora's husband and is about to be fired. He blackmails Nora, as we can read in the excerpt, so that she will help him keep his job.

serious [3.7K]
Quenya is the language of the High Elves in Tolkien-lore. (I assume you had to read the Hobbit, maybe review it again, since this was a rather important point.) The trolls, goblins, and orcs mostly speak Black Speech, and the hobbits speak Westron.
