Answer:
"If the Inca king could not conquer the Titicaca lords who owned these vast herds, he could never be safe."
Explanation:
This question is about the article "Lofty Ambitions of the Inca" where the authors explore the history of the Incas, the region they dominated, the people they conquered and the activities they carried out. One of the sections of the article features the title "The Colla Are Kicked Out" where it shows that the Collas were the dominators of Titicaca, which was a land full of riches and with large herds of islands and alpacas that are extremely strong animals and that can be used in several ways. The titicaca gave the Collas a lot of power and that undermined the security and influence of the Incas, which caused King Inca to decide to dominate the Titicaca. We can see this in the article through the line:
"If the Inca king could not conquer the Titicaca lords who owned these vast herds, he could never be safe."
Main ideas are often found at the beginning of paragraphs. The first sentence often explains the subject being discussed in the passage.
Answer:
The sonnet is structured with some solemn questions. They are framed within octet and sestet. The poet was posing questions of what should be done to those killed in war. The questions asked led to further confront the wastage of life through wars.
Below is an excerpt:
What passing-bells for these who die as cattle? (Line 1)
— Only the monstrous anger of the guns. (Line 2)
What candles may be held to speed them all? (Line 3)
The poetic structure gives the poem a solemnity tone. The tone of the poem is quickly drawn from the title of the poem:
Anthem For Doomed Youth
"Anthem" itself gives a tone of solemnity, a motif for burial services.
The solemnity tone is quitely underlined by the use of repeated simple negatives ‘Only’, ‘Only’, ‘No’, ‘Nor’, ‘Not’. rifle’s rattle.
Below is an excerpt:
No mockeries now for them; no prayers nor bells;
Nor any voice of mourning
.

They keep no check on armies’ decimation.
Also, in the structure of the poem, there seems to be a touch of alliteration.
Explanation:
"Anthem for Doomed Youth" is a popular poem written by Wilfred Owen in 1917. The poem carries the theme of the horror of war.
A+c=1,000
2a+1c=$1850
Multiply top equation by 2 so you can get 2 numbers that cancel each other out
a+c=1,000 (2)
2a+2c=2,000
2a+1c=$1,850
2a-2a=0
cancel out 2a's by subtraction
and since you used subtraction, subtract the rest of the equation.
2c-1c=C
2,000-1850=150
C=150

Same process, but for C (though is not necessary because the numbers already cancel out)
a+c=1,000
2a+c=$1850
c-c=0
Again, since you used subtraction, subtract again
1a-2a= -a
1,000-1850= -850
since both are negative, multiply by -1 to make them positive
a=850
*850 adult tickets sold*
850+150= 1,000
