Which best describes the historical context of the 1879 speech by chief joseph?

1 answer:

6 0

I believe that the best answer for this question is the Nez Perce War. The War broke out when the U.S. Army pursued 750 Nez Perce, led by Chief Joseph, who were fleeing away from Idaho and towards freedom. The Nez Perce outfought their opponents, but eventually, Joseph formally surrendered. After the war ended, the Nez Perce were shuttled to prisoner of war camps for eight months. Chief Joseph went to see the President to plead his case. Hope this helps.

Select Parameter or Statistic to classify each statement.

Ede4ka [16]

A parameter is a factor that defines a system or a number that defines the scope, limit, and boundary of a particular process;

whilst,

A statistic is a fact or information or inference derived from the data that is obtained by means of a study or a survey.

1) 85% of those SURVEYED were in favor of bike lanes = STATISTIC (This is a statistic because the data obtained (85%) through a survey shows the fact that how many people were in favor of bike lanes and how many people were against (15%)

2) Each member of the soccer team has an average of 2 jerseys = PARAMETER (This is a parameter because of the fact that defines a minimum limit of 2 jerseys held by each member of the soccer team. This could also be a factor in a study as a question like yes or no.)

3) Of the 100 swim teams SURVEYED across America, 23 practice 10 hours a week = STATISTIC (This is a statistic because there is an inference that among the 100 swim teams surveyed 23 teams practice 10 hours per week and this information or inference is obtained from the SURVEY).

4) The golf team's average score is 79 - STATISTIC (This is a statistic because it gives us the inference that the average score is 79 which is obtained by processing the data obtained. It can also be statistic because we need to get an average for finding out mean, median or standard deviation in statistics. So, any calculation involved is a STATISTIC.)

Mere statements are PARAMETERS.

Calculations whatsoever derived from a study or surveys are STATISTICS.

The speaker in “the tyger” and “the lamb” suggests characteristics about the one who made the lamb and the tyger. How is the cre

Svetach [21]

In William Blake's "The Tyger", the creator is described in terms of a blacksmith, modelling nature and giving form to a sensuous yet dangerous and potentially evil creature.

On the other hand, in "The Lamb", the creator is described as meek and benevolent, having created the Lamb with its soft wooly clothing and soft voice.

The two poems reflect on the duality of God and religion, and the existence of good and evil. The same God that is merciful, and benevolent is equally capable of creating a creature like the tiger, and tolerate evil in the world as part of his creation. The point is that each creation bears a reflection of its creator.

The speaker in "The Lamb" is innocent enough to only contemplate the good deeds of God in this world, and thus, he answers the question "who make thee" In contrast, the speaker in "The Tyger" is experienced and confronted with the realization of the complexity of God's creation, thus leaving the question unanswered.
