Which of the following significant events does not occur BEFORE the play opens?
O Big Walter dies, leaving the family $10,000 from an insurance policy.

O Walter, Willy and Bobo make plans to buy a liquor store.

O The Younger family makes a down payment on a house.

O Ruth becomes pregnant with her second child.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

O Walter, Willy and Bobo make plans to buy a liquor store.

Explanation:

This question is about the play "A raisin in the sun", which tells the story of a family that receives an insurance policy that leaves them in an economic situation far superior to that in which they lived.

Before that happens, we are presented with the life that the family has that is very precarious and economically poor. Although some members of the family are satisfied with the life they lead, Walter younger is not. He wants to participate in something that makes him rich and allows him and his family to live better. For this reason, he and two other friends (Willy and Bobo) make plans to be partners in a liquor store.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is a fact about seat belts preventing injuries in car accidents

Explanation:

I just  take a quiz on edg 2020.

"Every driver should wear a seat belt” The answer is a fact about seat belts preventing injuries in car accidents.

What message is given by this image?

Regarding the meaning and message of the picture, a fact about seat belts preventing injuries in car accidents should be added inasmuch as factual information would lead people to believe deeply in seat belts as accessories that can indeed save people's lives and decrease the percentage of injuries in traffic accidents, instead of an animation that would tell the people something obvious to do or a paragraph that might get few views depending on the lenght of it.

Thus, option "D" is correct.

ow do the underlined words and phrases in the passage create meaning? They explain the porter's anxiety at meeting a well-known man. They set up a threatening conflict between Sindbad and the porter. They describe the layout of the dining hall and the porter's location in it. They demonstrate Sindbad's respectability and his generosity toward the porter.

Answers

This question is incomplete because the passage is missing; here is the complete question:

Read the passage from "The Seven Voyages of Sindbad the Sailor.”

[The porter] followed the servant into a vast room, where a great company was seated round a table covered with all sorts of delicacies. In the place of honor sat a tall, grave man, whose long white beard gave him a venerable air. Behind his chair stood a crowd of attendants eager to minister to his wants. This was the famous Sindbad himself. The porter, more than ever alarmed at the sight of so much magnificence, tremblingly saluted the noble company. Sindbad, making a sign to him to approach, caused him to be seated at his right hand, and himself heaped choice morsels upon his plate, and poured out for him a draught of excellent wine, and presently, when the banquet drew to a close, spoke to him familiarly, asking his name and occupation.

How do the underlined words and phrases in the passage create meaning? A. They explain the porter's anxiety at meeting a well-known man.

B. They set up a threatening conflict between Sindbad and the porter.

C. They describe the layout of the dining hall and the porter's location in it.

D. They demonstrate Sindbad's respectability and his generosity toward the porter.

The answer to this question is D. They demonstrate Sindbad's respectability and his generosity toward the porter.

Explanation:

In the passage, the narrator describes a meeting between the porter and Sindbad who is a respectable man. The idea of respectability is emphasized by the underlined sections such as "a tall, grave man, whose long white beard gave him a venerable air" that shows this man is venerable, and therefore respectable or "This was the famous Sindbad himself" because the word famous emphasizes this quality. Additionally, underlined sections such as "heaped choice morsels upon his plate" or "spoke to him familiarly" show Sindbad is generous with the porter because he does not mind sharing his food and benefits with the porter and is kind when he speaks to him.

Answer and Explanation:

First, you need to know what an Epic Poem even is. "An epic poem is a long, narrative poem that is usually about heroic deeds and events that are significant to the culture of the poet." Then, you can tell from that which of the options apply to the way we defined an Epic Poem. So, "An Epic Hero showing bravery in battle", "A difficult journey with many trials", and "Supernatural events." Fit into the definition of an Epic Poem. You can tell this because in the definition "heroic deeds" can mean many things such as a journey about a hero and supernatural 'monsters'.

cos^2(pi/2_thita/4)_sin^2(pi/4_thita/4)=sin thita/2

please help me..

Answers

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

Using the identity  sin^2x - sin^2x =  cos 2x

cos^2( π/4 - Ф/4) - sin^2(π/4  - Ф/4) = cos 2(π/4  - Ф/4)

= cos(π/2  - Ф/2)

Now cos(π/2  - Ф/2) = cosπ/2 cos Ф/2 + sin π/2 sin Ф/2

But cos π/2  = 0 and sin π/2  = 1 so

cos(π/2  - Ф/2) = 0 * cos Ф/2 + 1 * sin Ф/2

= sin Ф/2.

Italicized clause: that he run the mile in less than four minutes.

Answer:

Appositive

Explanation:

The noun clause “that he run the mile in less than four minutes” is an appositive because it gives us further information about another noun placed right beside it: “goal.” Besides, it is a nonrestrictive appositive because its information is not essential to the meaning of the sentence (without it, the sentence would still make sense).

B. Unpleasant could suggest some sort of bitter taste but it could also be used to describe other unpleasant or upsetting things.

D. Acrid is an irritatingly strong and unpleasant taste or smell so this could relate to sour.
