Help me plssssss.How does the image provide more information than the text?
Aloiza [94]

The image provides more statements because it clarifies how Damon and Pythias will be put to death, as shown in the second answer option.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The text allows the reader to understand that Damon and Pythias will be sentenced to death, but it does not give much information on how this will be done.
  • This makes the reader not know how these deaths will happen and keep his imagination stimulated to be able to visualize this moment.

However, the use of images limits this imagination, but promotes extra information, which makes the author's knowledge of the conviction more efficient. That's because the images show more details of how the death sentence will be carried out.

It’s a language arts question
Lady bird [3.3K]

The dashes should be inserted between "bridge" and "an", and the second dash should be between "gorge" and "while".

Without the hyphens, the sentence is a bit too long and over-connected. There needs to be some sort of pause to describe the bridge the jumper is jumping off of.

:)
