PLEASE HELP ME!!
Read this passage from Part 1 of “The Purloined Letter.”

“And what, after all, is the matter on hand?” I asked.

“Why, I will tell you,” replied the Prefect, as he gave a long, steady, and contemplative puff, and settled himself in his chair. “I will tell you in a few words; but, before I begin, let me caution you that this is an affair demanding the greatest secrecy, and that I should most probably lose the position I now hold, were it known that I confided it to any one.

“Proceed,” said I.

What is the most likely reason Poe uses a slow pace in this part of the scene?

The Purloined Letter, Part 1

to provide foreshadowing of the story (not correct, i tried)

to reduce the tension in the story

to summarize the story that is about to be told

to increase suspense about the story to come

The value of the expression A = 6[4-9.47] is A = -33

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

A = 6 [ 4 - 9.47 ]

On simplifying , we get

A = 6 ( -5.47 )

On further simplification , we get

A = 6 x -5.47

A = -32.82

On rounding the value of A , we get

A = -33

Therefore , the value of A is -33

Hence , the equation is A = -33

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

9^2 or 9(9) = 81

Answer: 2 kilometers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, since the situation forms a right triangle (see attachment) we have to apply the Pythagorean Theorem:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

Where c is the hypotenuse of the triangle, the longest side  (in this case the distance between  the courthouse and the city pool) and a and b are the other sides.

Replacing with the values given:

4.4^2 = 3.9^2 + b^2

19.36 = 15.21+b^2

19.36-15.21 = b^2

4.15 = b^2

√4.15 = b

b=2 km

So let's do it step by step.

Already she has to pay $[tex]5[/tex] for going in.

She has [tex]2[/tex] whole pounds.

[tex]1.25[/tex] x [tex]2=2.5[/tex] or [tex]2 \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Add $[tex]5[/tex] and $ [tex]2.5[/tex] .

[tex]5+2.5 = 7.5[/tex]

Now let's do $1.25 divided by 10.

[tex]$[/tex]$[tex]1.25[/tex] divided by $[tex]10[/tex] [tex]=0.125[/tex]

Now let's do [tex]0.125[/tex] times [tex]4[/tex]

Answer:

(8.5, - 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

6x + 4y = 43 → (1)

2x - 3y = 23 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by - 3 and adding to (1) will eliminate the term in x

- 6x + 9y = - 69 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate x, that is

13y = - 26 ( divide both sides by 13 )

y = - 2

Substitute y = - 2 in either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (1)

6x + 4(- 2) = 43

6x - 8 = 43 ( add 8 to both sides )

6x = 51 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 8.5

Solution is (8.5, - 2 )

Answer:

[tex] \boxed{b\degree = 36\degree} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Property used: An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles.

[tex] = > 81 \degree + b \degree = 117 \degree \\ \\ = > b \degree = 117 \degree - 81 \degree \\ \\ = > b \degree = 36 \degree [/tex]

Answer:

The last option/ 30 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

we use the pythagorean theoeom to say that the triangle is a right triangle. We know which one the right angle is, so the remaining two angles add up to 90 degrees. we eliminate the third option and the first. Then, eliminate the fourth and the second. The answer is either 42 or 30. It cannot be 42 because 42+56+70=168, and 168 is not equal to 180. So, the  answer is 30 degrees.

Answer:

the final amount is = $280.51

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard formula for compound interest is given as;

A = P(1+r/n)^(nt) .....1

Given that;

Principal P = $200

Interest rate r = 7% = 0.07

Time t = 5 years

Final amount = A

Number of time compounded per year n = 1

Substituting the values;

A = 200(1+0.07/1)^(1×5)

A = 280.51

Therefore, the final amount is = $280.51

Answer: £165.41

Step-by-step explanation:

Price of bike when purchased in 2010 = £300

Depreciation rate yearly = 18%

Value of bike in 2011

Purchased price - depreciation value

= £300 - £300 * 0.18

= £300 - £54

= £246

Value of bike in 2012

= 2011 Price - depreciation value

= £246 - £246 * 0.18

= £246 - £44.28

= £201.72

Value of Bike in 2013

= price of 2012 - depreciation value

= £201.72 - £201.72 * 0.18

= £201.72 - £36.31

= £165.41

Price in 2014 would be £165.41

Vertical motion formula is h = -16t^2 +vt +s where v is initial velocity and s is starting height:

h = -16t^2 + 50t +6

Solving for t: -50/-32 = 1.5625 seconds to reach maximum height.

Now replace t  and solve for h ( maximum height)

h = -16(1.5625)^2 +50(1.5625) + 6

h = 45.0625

The value for h is greater than the height of the balcony, so yes the ball reached  the friend.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem since we know the legs

a^2+b^2 = c^2

12.75 ^2 + 17^2 = c^2

162.5625+289= c^2

451.5625 = c^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(451.5625) =sqrt( c^2)

21.25 = c

B=4000(1+0.09)^3

Answer:

885.1

Step-by-step explanation:

p = 3000

r = 9/100 = 0.09

t = 3 years

B = 3000 * (1+ 0.09)^3

B = 3000 * (1.09)^3

1.09^3 = 1.09*1.09 * 1.09 = 1.295

B = 3000 * 1.295

B = 3885.10

So the interest is Balance - principle =  3885.1 - 3000 = 885.1

Answer:14.58 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Matthew is training to participate in a half marathon.

The distance covered by Matthew on the first day is 12.5 miles.

The distance covered by Matthew on the second day is 13.5 miles.

The distance increased on the second day is, 13.5-12.5=1 mile.

The percentage will be,

=\dfrac{1}{12.5}\times 100\%

=0.08\times 100\%

=8\%

Hence, each day he runs 8% more. So the distance covered by him on day 3 will be,

=13.5+\left(13.5\times \dfrac{8}{100}\right)

=13.5+1.08

=14.58 miles

Answer:

Basic consensus is that that other answer is wrong. The actual answer is 19.22

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the common ratio you just do this, last number = 15.5, and first number = 12.5.

15.5/12.5 equals 1.24.

^That's the common ratio.^

using A(n) = a * r ^ n - 1,

you get 12.5 * 1.24 ^ 3 - 1, or just 12.5 * 1.24 ^ 2

and solving that problem, you get 19.22.

Confirm this by doing the same thing earlier, 19.22/15.5 is 1.24. Which is the ratio found earlier. So it checks out.
