Answer:

Explanation:

Given the simultaneous equation we are to find the values of x and y

3x-2y = 14 ..... ×1

5x-y = 32...... ×2

Using elimination method, the equation becomes

3x-2y = 14

10x-2y = 64

.subtract

3x-10x = 14-64

-7x = -50

x = -50/-7

x = 7 1/7

Substitute x = 50/7 into eqn 2

From 2;

5(50/7)-y = 32

250/7 - y = 32

y = 250/7-32

y = (250-224)/7

y = 26/7

Hence (x,y) = (50/7, 26/7)

Answer:

d) Mercedes is the only one at home, and she is too busy with her embroidery in Madam Hailer's room to come near you

Explanation:

a) “You are going to build a large house, Mr. Darrell?” said Victoriano, turning his horse so as to ride beside Clarence; “judging by the amount of lumber being hauled.”

b) “I understand, and I think my father will be willing to sell the land. He is at home now. Let us go up to see him.”

c) They have too much sense not to know that you would not be working in white kid gloves.

d) Mercedes is the only one at home, and she is too busy with her embroidery in Madam Hailer's room to come near you

Since Mercedes is depicted as being at home alone before having a love encounter, it is clear that the author has resorted to narration to communicate this information.

Giving characters struggles and motivation
Shalnov [3]
To give your characters struggles and/or motivation, you need to find something they want to strive toward. Your character is a person, just like anyone in real life. They have goals, they have things they hate. They have a backstory that could provide a reason for their struggles, such as they grew up in a fairly wealthy home, but now they got disowned and are dealing with how to make their own money.
Motivation tends to come from a struggle. For example, the character that is struggling with how to make their own money also has a motivation: money. They are used to having money, that now that they don't, they're going to try to get that money back. Sometimes, the character will have a lull in their motivation, which gives a perfect chance for a climax in the story. Something big happens to give them their push. Maybe they lose the apartment they were staying in because they were too lazy to find a job. Or maybe their significant other tells them that because they're such a worthless, jobless loser, that they're breaking up. No matter what this big event is, it shakes the character out of whatever lull they've been having and shows them that they need to be able to overcome their struggle, therefore providing them with their motivation back tenfold.
I hope this explains this well enough for you, but I can always try to answer in more detail if you'd like.

The rhetorical device used in the sentence “O books who alone are liberal and free, who give to all who ask of you and enfranchi
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

C. Apostrophe

Explanation:

Apostrophe:

Apostrophe is a figure of speech by using which a writer or speaker addresses an absent/dead person as if he/she were present, or an inanimate object or idea as if it were a living thing and listening to him/her (speaker).

Examples:  

"O wild West Wind"

"O, my cell phone, you were so dear to me."

Hyperbole: It is an exaggerated statement not to be taken literally.

Examples:

"The sun came just meters away from the earth."

"She would conquer the entire universe with her smile"

Simile:

It is a figure of speech in which the writer makes comparison between two things which may have some relation but are different. Simile always uses comparison words such as, like, as, similar to etc.

Examples:

"He is as brave as a lion"

"Life is like a dream"

Litotes:

It is an understatement in which a positive statement is made by negating its opposite. Or use of double negatives to make a positive statement.

Examples:

"It was not one of my best days" to mean It was one of my bad days."

"The books was not bad" to mean the book was good."
