Read the poem "The Snake" by Emily Dickinson.

A narrow fellow in the grass
Occasionally rides;
You may have met him, — did you not,
His notice sudden is.

The grass divides as with a comb,
A spotted shaft is seen;
And then it closes at your feet
And opens further on.

He likes a boggy acre,
A floor too cool for corn.
Yet when a child, and barefoot,
I more than once, at morn,

Have passed, I thought, a whip-lash
Unbraiding in the sun, —
When, stooping to secure it,
It wrinkled, and was gone.

Several of nature's people
I know, and they know me;
I feel for them a transport
Of cordiality;

But never met this fellow,
Attended or alone,
Without a tighter breathing,
And zero at the bone.

Which statement best describes Dickinson’s use of figurative language in the final stanza?

She uses comparisons to show the speaker’s connection to the snake .
She uses a simile to show that snakes are harmless creatures .
She uses a metaphor to describe the movement of the snake.
She uses exaggeration to emphasize the speaker’s fear of snakes.

Answer:

8.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we want to minimize the average, the integers should be made as small as possible. So, we have 4 integers:

1, 2, 3, 4

However, the median must be 10. The next two integers must have an average of 10 - and since the integers are distinct, we should use:

9, 11

From there, we use the smallest integers (that are still above 11) possible:

12, 13, 14, 15

The average of these 10 integers is 84/10, or 8.4.

The median is still 10, because (9+11)/2 is 10.

Answer:

8 (or 8.4)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, the problem states the words: Distinct and positive.

That means that the smallest number we can use is 0.

We can make 10 blanks for 10 numbers for us to fill in.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Since 10 is an even number, and the median is not one single number, it will be the middle of the two numbers.

In this case, our two numbers are the 5th and 6th blank.

Any two numbers can be used, as long as they are the same actual value from 10.

Let us first put in the numbers we can, which are the numbers before the two middle blanks.

0,1,2,3, _ _ _ _ _ _

To find the median between two numbers, we can do:

(a+b) divided by 2 = median

We can use the smallest following number, 4. Then the 6th number will have to be 16 for 10 to be in the middle.

Also try the largest possible number for the 5th blank, 9. Then the 6th number will be 11.

4+16 and 9+11 both equal 20, and 20 divided by 2 is 10. So both of these work.

Now let's place the other numbers in for these two equations.

0,1,2,3,4,16,17,18,19,20

0,1,2,3,9,11,12,13,14,15

If we add the numbers of each together, we get:

0,1,2,3,4,16,17,18,19,20=100

0,1,2,3,9,11,12,13,14,15= 80

If we now divide each sum by 10 (to find the average) we get:

10

8

Since both of these were the most we could go, one with the 5th number as small as possible and one with the 5th number as large as possible.

Since the smaller answer we got was 8, the answer must be 8.

(I believe 0 is a positive integer because it doesn't carry a negative sign. If 0 is not a positive integer, the answer is 8.4. Use the same process

f(2)= f(1+1) ,where n= 1

=-6

= -2×3

= -2f(1)

f(n+1 )= -2f(n)

OPTION C is the correct answer

Answer:

option 3 is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

3, - 6, 12, - 24, 48, .....

Here,

f ( 1 ) = 3

f ( 2 ) = - 6

f ( n + 1 ) = - 3 f ( n )

f ( 1 + 1 ) = - 3 f ( 1 )

f ( 2 ) = - 3 x 3

f ( 2 ) = - 9

This recursive formula is not correct.

f ( n + 1 ) = - 2 f ( n )

f ( 1 + 1 ) = - 2 f ( 1 )

f ( 2 ) = - 2 ( 3 )

f ( 2 ) = - 6

This recursive formula is correct.

Answer:

A.

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

range of a function is the number interval of the y (function) values.

the domain is the number interval of the x (input) values.

A.

this function has only one constant functional value : -5

so the range is the set with only that one value.

B. no, the line goes across all possible values of x.

it is therefore not limited to a single value.

C. see B. therefore, true.

D. see A. no, only one value.

E. is simply a wrong statement. it would not be a function, if there is an x that has more than one y value. but that is not the case here. every x value has exactly one y value. they are all the same, but that does not matter.

-1 + 2 - 3 + 4 - 5 + 6 - … - 999 + 1000

= -(1 + 3 + 5 + … + 999) + (2 + 4 + 6 + … + 1000)

= -((2 - 1) + (4 - 1) + (6 - 1) + … + (1000 - 1)) + 2 (1 + 2 + 3 + … + 500)

= -((2 + 4 + 6 + … + 1000) - 500) + 2 (1 + 2 + 3 + … + 500)

= -(2 (1 + 2 + 3 + … + 500) - 500) + 2 (1 + 2 + 3 + … + 500)

Let S = 1 + 2 + 3 + … + 500. Then this sum is equal to

= -(2S - 500) + 2S

= -2S + 500 + 2S

= 500

and multiplying by 4 gives 2000.

Answer:

Height = 12in

Surface area = 320in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Length of the square base = 8in

Volume of the prism = 768 cubic inches

Using the formula;

Volume of the prism = Base area * Height of prism

768 = 8² * H

768 = 64H

H = 768/64

H = 12in

Hence the height of the prism is 12in

Get the surface area

Surface area = 2l² + 2lh

Surface area = 2(8)² + 2 (8)(12)

Surface area = 128  + 192

Surface area = 320in²

Hence the Surface area of the prism is 320in²

Answer:

read explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

since y=2/5x-3 we substitute x=10 in making it y=2/5*10-3

following PAMDAS we do multiplication first so 2/5*10=4.

so y=4-3 and then we subtract and get y=1. Hope this helps:> if you need more explanation message me. If not give this a heart for helping. Good luck.

WRS and VRT are vertical angles

Answer:

10 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function [tex]h(t)=-2t^2+8t+10[/tex] represents the height, [tex]h[/tex], in meters, [tex]t[/tex] seconds after the ball is thrown.

Since the ball is thrown off the roof, then ball's height will be equal to the roof's height before being thrown (0 seconds). Therefore, substitute [tex]t=0[/tex] into the given function [tex]h(t)=-2t^2+8t+10[/tex]:

[tex]h(0)=-2(0^2)+8(0)+10,\\h(0)=0+0+10,\\h(0)=\boxed{10\text{ meters}}[/tex]

Therefore, the building is 10 meters tall.

Answer:

There is a percentage increase of 77.1% in savings

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer can be determined by assigning a value to the income of Mr Brown.

Let Mr. Brown's initial income = 100

Percentage spent = 65%

Amount spent = 100 x 0.65 = 65

Percentage he saves = 100 - 65% = 35%

Amount he saves = 100 x 0.35 = 35

Salary after increase = 1.40 x 100 = 140

Increase in expenses = 1.2 x 65 = 78

Amount saved after increase in income = 140 - 78 = 62

Percentage increase = (new amount saved / previous amount saved) - 1

Percentage increase = (62 / 35) - 1 = 0.771 = 77.1%

Answer:

"The range of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to 9."

Step-by-step explanation:

For this question the domain is (-∞,∞)

The range is all numbers less than 9 (the y-coordinate of the vertex)

The reason the numbers are less than 9 is because the graph is concave down (aka it looks like a frowny face)

Therefore the answer is "The range of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to 9."

Answer:

x = 17.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

sin theta = opp / hyp

sin 25 = x /41

41 sin 25 = x

17.32734=x

Rounding to the tenths place

x = 17.3

We have to find,

The required value of x.

Now we can,

Use the trigonometric functions.

→ Sin(θ) = opp/hyp

Let's find the required value of x,

→ Sin (θ) = opp/hyp

→ Sin (25) = x/41

→ x = 41 × Sin (25)

→ x = 41 × 0.42262

→ x = 17.32734

→ [x = 17.3]

Hence, option (c) is the solution.
