Let's just make a small correction before answering the question. The name in brackets should be "Robert" and not "Roger".

Answer:

These two scenes from chapter 5 contribute to the novel's plot development because:

B) They contribute to the rising action by demonstrating the different behaviors Robert uses with Madame Ratignolle and Mrs. Pontellier.

Explanation:

Mrs. Edna Pontellier is the main character in Kate Chopin's novel "The Awakening". <u>The two excerpts we are analyzing here are part of the plot's rising action, that is, the moment in the story where conflicts begin to develop, creating the tension that will lead to the climax. In this case, the conflicts come through Robert's behavior toward Edna and Madame Ratignolle. Edna does not know what to make of it. Is he truly in love with her? Is he just being playful, as he usually is toward other women?</u>

To summarize the story briefly, Edna goes through a series of awakenings that make her realize she is unhappy fulfilling the roles of wife and mother. Robert, who eventually becomes her lover, helps her attend to her own needs. Edna ends up isolated, since society has a hard time accepting her new, independent self.

Select Proportional or Not Proportional to correctly classify each pair of ratios.

morpeh [17]

Answer:

Yes, it is proportional.

Proportions Explained:

Draw 2 triangles, triangle ABC and triangle DEF. Label any 2 sides of triangle ABC as measuring 18" and 4". Label the 2 corresponding sides of triangle DEF as measuring 72" and 16".

When you see if 18/72 and 4/16 are proportional, you are seeing if triangle ABC and triangle DEF are similar. One way to do it is with proportions, which is the way we are doing it. When making proportions, you want to put corresponding sides into the same fraction. For example, let's say you labeled side AB as 18" and side BC as 4". In triangle DEF, let's say you labeled side DE as 72" and side EF as 16". When making proportions, you want to put the corresponding side lengths (AB and DE) into the same fraction. Second fraction, same way. Just remember that the second fraction has to correspond with the first fraction. If you put the side length of triangle ABC on top and the side length of triangle DEF on bottom, you need to do the same for the second fraction.

But, they did the previous steps and want you to do the rest:

Now you have two fractions: AB/DE and BC/EF, or 18/72 and 4/16. Fully reduce each fraction, and if they come out to the same fully reduced fraction, they are proportional and the two triangles are similar. 18/72 reduces to 1/4 and 4/16 reduced to 1/4. 1/4=1/4, so the final answer is yes.

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

When Blalock says, “You’re either going to give me my respect, or I’m going to get my respect.” his meaning of respect is the same as everyone's, it is the due regard that others should have towards your feelings, wishes, or rights. It is something that everyone wants from those around them and should have for those individuals as well. Respect is a two-way streak.
