What is at least 2 metaphors in this passage?

Until this day, how well the house had kept its peace. How carefully it had inquired, "Who goes there? What's the password?" and, getting no answer from lonely foxes and whining cats, it had shud up its windows and drawn shades in an old maidenly preoccupation with self-protection which bordered on a mechanical paranoia. It quivered at each sound, the house did. If a sparrow brushed a window, the shade snapped up. The bird, startled, flew off! No, not even a bird must touch the house! The house was an altar with ten thousand attendants, big, small, servicing, attending, in choirs. But the gods had gone away, and the ritual of the religion continued senselessly, uselessly.

What Is At Least 2 Metaphors In This Passage?Until This Day, How Well The House Had Kept Its Peace. How

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

it had shud up its windows and drawn shades in an old maidenly preoccupation with self-protection which bordered on a mechanical paranoia.

Put a like before an old maidenly aunt or woman. That makes it a simile. Take the like out and you have a metaphor.

Do the same thing with like in front of an alter. Take out the like and you have a metaphor.

What a grim and yet wonderful passage.

Answers

Answer:

C. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2y and 0,0 are the same

Answer:

The answer is B) There is one proportional relationship

Step-by-step explanation:

The green line (the one at the top) does not go through the origin. This is not a proportional relationship.

Problem: It does not go through 0,0

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The blue line (the one in the middle) is a straight line through the origin. This is a proportional relationship.

Reason: It goes through 0,0

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The purple line (the one at the bottom) does not go through the origin. This is not a proportional relationship.

Problem: It does not go through 0,0

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conclusion: Since the green and purple lines are not proportional but the blue line is, this means only 1 line is proportional.

what is c?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]4(3 + c) + c = 4 + c \\ 12 + 4c + c = 4 + c \\ 12 + 5c = 4 + c \\ 12 - 4 = c - 5c \\ \\ 8 = - 4c \\ c = \frac{ - 8}{4} \\ c = - 2 \\ thank \: you[/tex]

Answer: c = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4 (3 + c) + c = c + 4

Expand parentheses and apply the distributive property

4 · 3 + 4 · c + c = c + 4

12 + 4c + c = c + 4

Combine like terms

12 + (4c + c) = c + 4

12 + 5c = c + 4

Subtract 12 on both sides

12 + 5c - 12 = c + 4 - 12

5c = c - 8

Subtract c on both sides

5c - c = c - 8 - c

4c = -8

Divide 4 on both sides

4c / 4 = -8 / 4

[tex]\boxed{c=-2}[/tex]

Answer:

  1. (f+g)(x) = 2x^2 +4x +2

  2. (f -g)(x) = -2x^2 +4x -4

  5. (f+g)(x) = x^2 +2x -1

  6. (g -f)(x) = x^2 -2x -1

Step-by-step explanation:

None of these are compositions. They are only sums or differences.

  (f±g)(x) = f(x) ± g(x)

__

1. (f+g)(x) = f(x) +g(x) = (4x -1) +(2x^2 +3)

  (f+g)(x) = 2x^2 +4x +2

__

2. (f -g)(x) = f(x) -g(x) = (4x -1) -(2x^2 +3)

  (f -g)(x) = -2x^2 +4x -4

__

5. (f +g)(x) = f(x) +g(x) = (2x) +(x^2 -1)

  (f+g)(x) = x^2 +2x -1

6. (g -f)(x) = g(x) -f(x) = (x^2 -1) -(2x)

  (g -f)(x) = x^2 -2x -1

5. Mrs. Perkins hosts a birthday party for her son and 7 guests. She orders 2 cookies and a
cupcake for each child. The cost of the cupcake is $2.75, and the total bill is $46.00. What is the
cost of a cookie?

Answers

Answer:

A cookie is $1.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Variable x = cost of cookies

For each child means the 7 guests plus Mrs. Perkins' son which equals 8.

Set up an equation:

(2x)8 + (2.75)8 = 46

Use distributive property:

16x + 22 = 46

Isolate variable x by subtracting both sides by 22:

16x = 24

Isolate variable x by dividing both sides by 16

x = 1.5

Check your work:

2(1.5) × 8 + (2.75)8 = 46

3 × 8 + 22 = 46

24 + 22 = 46

46 = 46

Correct!

Answer: $1.50 per cookie

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that each cupcake is worth $2.75 and the total bill of all her purchases is $46.

Therefore, lets multiply the cost of a cupcake times the amount of people eating them. (the sons and 7 guests which add up to 8)

2.75(8) = $22

Now take the total cost of 8 cupcakes and subtract it from the total.

46 - 22 =  $24

24 dollars is equal to the cost times the amount of cookies purchased. Therefore, let X equal to the cost per cookie and multiply it times the amount of cookies purchased. The amount of cookies is equal to 2 cookies times 8 children.

(2*8)X = 24

16x=24

x= $1.50

Check:

8[ (1)(2.75) + 2X ] = 46

8[ 2.75 + (2) (1.50) ] = 46

22 + 24 = 46

46 = 46

Show all work to solve the equation for x. If a solution is extraneous, be sure to identify it in your final answer.

square root of the quantity x minus 3 end quantity plus 5 equals x

Answers

x=7 is the solution for the given equation

x=4 is the extraneous solution .

Given :

[tex]\sqrt{x-3} +5=x[/tex]

Explanation :

To solve the given equation for x , we need to remove the square root first

Subtract 5 on both sides

[tex]\sqrt{x-3}+5=x\\ \sqrt{x-3}=x-5\\\\[/tex]

Take square on both sides to remove square root

[tex]x-3=(x-5)^2\\x-3=x^{2} -10x+25\\[/tex]

Subtract x  and add 3 on both sides

[tex]0=x^{2} -11x+28\\0=(x-7)(x-4)\\[/tex]

Set the factors =0 and solve for x

[tex]x-7 =0\\x=7\\\\\\x-4=0\\x=4[/tex]

x values are 4  and 7

Now we check the values using original equation and verify it

[tex]x=4\\\sqrt{x-3} +5=x\\\sqrt{4-3} +5=4\\\\6=4 \\[/tex]

x=4 does not satisfies the original equation

Now we check x=7

[tex]\sqrt{7-3} +5=7\\7=7[/tex]

x=7 is the solution

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle \theta = \left\{\frac{7\pi}{6}, \, \frac{3\pi}{2}, \frac{11\pi}{6}\right\}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to solve the equation:

[tex]2\sin ^2 \theta + 3\sin \theta + 1 = 0[/tex]

In the interval [0, 2π).

Notice that this is in quadratic form. Namely, by letting u = sin(θ), we acquire:

[tex]\displaystyle 2u^2 + 3u + 1 = 0[/tex]

Factor:

[tex]\displaystyle (2u+1)(u+1) = 0[/tex]

By the Zero Product Property:

[tex]\displaystyle 2u + 1 = 0\text{ or } u + 1 = 0[/tex]

Solve for each case:

[tex]\displaystyle u = -\frac{1}{2} \text{ or } u = -1[/tex]

Back-substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle \sin \theta = -\frac{1}{2} \text{ or } \sin \theta =-1[/tex]

Use the Unit Circle. Hence, our three solutions in the interval [0, 2π) are:

[tex]\displaystyle \theta = \left\{\frac{7\pi}{6}, \, \frac{3\pi}{2}, \frac{11\pi}{6}\right\}[/tex]

A man is37years old and his child is eight.how many years ago was the product of their ages 96 as in quadratic equation step by step​

Answers

Answer:

5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the unknown numer of years ago when the product of the man and his child's age was 96.

》 x years ago, the man's age = 37 - x

the child's age = 8 - x

(37 - x)(8 - x) = 96

296 - 37x - 8x + x² = 96

x² - 45x - 296 - 96 = 0

x² - 45x - 200 = 0

x² - 5x - 40x - 200 = 0

x(x - 5) -40(x - 5) = 0

(x - 5)(x - 40) = 0

x = 5 years ago or x = 40 years ago

but x = 40 > son's present age.

Thus, x = 5.

Therefore, 5 years ago the product of the ages of the man and his child was 96.
