HELP i need to turn this in today--- In at least 100 words, choose a character from Oedipus the King and explain his or her motivation.

Answers

Answer:

                                                    ANTIGONE

Antigone is the daughter of Oedipus who is as stubborn and decisive as her father. She in fact planned to defy Creon's directives and bury Polynices. The similarity with her father seemingly ended there as unlike her father she has the remarkable ability to recall events that happened in the past. Oedipus forgot all the good things the priest Tiresias did for him and went ahead to defy him, he also seemingly forgot about his encounter with Laius at the three-way crossroads. Antigone, on the other hand, recalls the things her father's actions have cost her family and the grief he has brought to them thus far.

Because Antigone is aware of the fate that her family is destined to, she is fearless about what Creon would do to her, even until the point of death because she feels she has nothing to lose. She appears to be in love with her brother Polynices (now dead) which seems to further the plot about the family being an incestuous one.

Antigone shows her great need for connection to her family throughout the book as she defies Creon to bury Polynices which could have cost her her life.

Lately, the neighbors next door __________ their house. It will look very nice when it’s finished. Question 23 options: a) have painting b) have been painting c) have been paint d) have painted

Answers

Answer:

Have been painting

Explanation:

In this sentence, if you read them all aloud, the phrase "have been painting" is the only one that works.

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Since the second sentence is not past tense (It will look very nice when it’s finished.) the answer is "have been painting". Another reason that it's this answer is that the first word in the first sentence is "Lately". Had it been any other answer it would've sounded silly.

Sorry if that didn't make sense, these things are hard to explain.

Rewrite the sentences, using verbal phrases in place of the italicized words.
I know that I can do better. This knowledge will help me persist.​

Answers

Answer:

Knowing that I can do better will help me persist.

Explanation:

Verbals are described as the derivative of a verb that functions as a noun or modifier in the sentence. It primarily includes participles(verbals that function as adjectives in the sentence), gerunds(verbals which function as nouns in the sentence), and infinitives(the verbals functioning as adverbs, nouns, or adjectives with 'to'). Thus, verbal phrases are described as the phrases that consist of a verbal plus any modifier or objects.

The given sentences can be rewritten using the verbal phrase('knowing that')  as it consists of a verbal 'knowing' plus modifier 'that'. Here, 'knowing that' is the participle phrase and it is functioning as an adjective in the sentence. Thus, this verbal phrase helps in connecting the two ideas together in a coherent manner.

C. He received a call / about a bill / before he fell.
D. Folks sit in their chairs / and show us their stares.

Answers

Answer:

he received a call/about a bill/before he fell

Explanation:

The eye rhyme is an example of an imperfect rhyme. Therefore, option (C) is the correct example of it, "call," "bill," and "fell" are eye rhymes.

What is an eye rhyme?

In poetry, an eye rhyme is an imperfect rhyme wherein the two words have similar spellings but different pronunciations. Another creative technique to connect words is by using an eye rhyme.

An eye rhyme is often referred to as a visual rhyme or a sight rhyme, words that should rhyme but don't are called "eye rhymes."

One such strategy is to substitute eye rhyme for perfect rhyme. Eye rhyme happens when two words have different pronunciations but share a section of the same spelling.

The terms "Sean Bean" and "Stone of Scone" are examples. Such as arrive and home, laugh, and daughter, bough and love, and so forth.

As a result, the example of eye rhyme is an option (C): "He received a call / concerning a bill / before he fell."

Which of the following sentences is written in active voice? A. I went to the mall. B. The computer was fixed by my friend. C. The suitcase was found. D. The trash was taken out yesterday.

Answers

Answer:

A. I went to the mall.

Explanation:

The difference between active voice and passive voice is that in active voice the subject acts while in passive voice the subject receives the action.

Active voice: "Johnny ate an apple."

Passive voice: "The apple was eaten by Johnny."

To look for the sentence written in active voice, look for the one with the subject acting.

In A, the main subject is I. The narrator went to the mall.

The sentence that is written in the active voice is ' I went to the mall'.

Option A is correct.

What is passive voice?

The passive voice is the opposing type of active voice in which the subject of the sentence receives the action. It starts with the object of the sentence.

Active voice is one of the most commonly used grammatical device. It is represented from the action performed by the subject of the sentence, that is, an individual or a thing.

The analysis of the provided sentences is as follows:

The first sentence representing the active voice as the subject, that is, inferred from letter 'I' which performs the past action of going to mall.The second sentence representing the passive voice as the task of fixation of computer is received to the subject ,that is, 'my' through his/her friend.The third sentence representing the passive voice as the suitcase is received to the implied subject.The fourth sentence representing the passive voice as the task of taking out of trash received to the subject.

Therefore, the sentence mentioned in option A is correct.

Answers

Answer:

if each is a different equation then in the first one we will multiply 7 by x and 7 by 4 which is equal to 7x + 28

and the second will be x -6 since there isn't anything before it and then it will be x-6 +32 [x - 3x - 15] here it was -15 because 3 is negative and negative multiplies by positive is negative then the is x -6 + 32x - 96x - 480 then we organize them x+32x -96x -6 -480

. = -63x + 486

here it was positive 486 cause negative plus negative is positive

Explanation:

the equation will be

equation 1. 7(x+4)

7x + 28

equation 2. (x - 6) 32[x - 3(x + 5)].

x-6 + 32(x - 3x + 15)

A free negro of the African race, whose ancestors were brought to this country and sold as slaves, is not a "citizen” within the meaning of the Constitution of the United States. When the Constitution was adopted, they were not regarded in any of the States as members of the community which constituted the State, and were not numbered among its "people or citizens.” Consequently, the special rights and immunities guarantied to citizens do not apply to them. And not being "citizens” within the meaning of the Constitution, they are not entitled to sue in that character in a court of the United States, and the Circuit Court has not jurisdiction in such a suit.

I HAVE TO SUBMIT THIS IN 30 MINS!! HELP APPRECIATED Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World. Sugar was the connection, the tie, between slavery and freedom. In order to create sugar, Europeans and colonists in the Americas destroyed Africans, turned them into objects. Just at that very same moment, Europeans—at home and across the Atlantic—decided that they could no longer stand being objects themselves. They each needed to vote, to speak out, to challenge the rules of crowned kings and royal princes. How could that be? Why did people keep speaking of equality while profiting from slaves? In fact, the global hunger for slave-grown sugar led directly to the end of slavery. Following the strand of sugar and slavery leads directly into the tumult of the Age of Revolutions. For in North America, then England, France, Haiti, and once again North America, the Age of Sugar brought about the great, final clash between freedom and slavery. Which sentence best states the authors' claim in this passage? A) Economic demand for sugar led to political pressure to end enslavement. B) The growing demand for sugar made the lives of enslaved people even worse. C) Turning Africans into objects was important for the sugar industry to succeed.
