The correct answer is answer C ("The words with positive connotations soften the ones with negative connotations to create a serious, matter-of-fact tone").
The tone of this excerpt is remarkably pragmatic for speaking about such horrific matter. Machiavelli achieves this by never losing sight of his aim, which is to instruct efficiency. <u>He's very aware of the delicate nature of the subject matter</u>. Without omitting important details even though they may seem cruel or gruesome, he's able to keep a cold tone by neutralizing these negative connotations with positive language.
This effect is made more clear in the last paragraph:
"For <u>injuries</u> ought to be done all at one time, so that, <u>being tasted less,</u> <u>offend less</u>..." - Here he's talking about necessary punishment and mercy at the same time.
"Benefits ought to be given <u>little by little</u>, so that the <u>flavour may last longer</u>..." - Machiavelli is talking about manipulation and using the word flavour which has a positive connotation that softens the cruel nature of the act.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
because it going into detail but not too much
1 is unclear, please take a better picture
2. x-18=-5, add 18 to both sides so x=13
3. square both sides and get x-8=-x+2, add x to both sides, get 2x-8=2, add 8 to both sides, get 2x=10, divide both sides by 10 and get x=5
4. use distance formula
√( (x-x`)^2 + (y-y`)^2 ) = d
√( (4+5)^2 + (x-8)^2 ) = √155
√ ( 81+x^(2)-16x+64 ) = √155

Answer:
- Trust; persuasiveness.
Explanation:
Contradictory information is also known as 'counterclaims' that serve to propose the rebuttal or denial to the original/central claim of the speech. However, it seems strange as there is a fear that it might go against the validity of the central argument of the work but the chief aim is to build the listeners' 'trust' that the author presents an objective claim(by analyzing both the perspectives). This leads to enhance the credibility of the claim and improve the 'persuasiveness' of the speech that would assist in convincing the audience more effectively. Therefore, 'counterclaims' are deliberately employed by the authors to uplift the reliability of their speech which is negated by sufficient evidence to establish the validity of central argument/claim.
