Yes, the actions of the characters in the Aeneid are what I would expect of them…given the larger context and purpose of the work. By that I mean, Aeneas is not the obvious hero of some of the...

One chemical that is an exception to the octet rule is BCl3, or boron trichloride. Boron is a group 13 element, meaning it has 3 valence electrons. So each of these three valence electrons forms...

In large classes, groups allow students to get to talk more often. Even in small classes, I always make sure to include pair or group conversations because humans are social animals, and we learn...

Given the two points, then the midpoint is the average of the coordinates of each of the points. That is: `R=({4+5}/2,{0+5}/2,{2+1}/2)` simplify `=(9/2,5/2,3/2)` To find a point two fifths of the...

The original question had to be edited down. Yet, I think that the other parts can be reposted. I would suggest that a strong writing sample exists when one seeks to enter the mind of Rosa Parks...

This question covers a wide variety of answers. At each grade level, students are so different that the environment in the classroom must account for those differences. In the lower primary grades...

One of the central actions that occur in this final scene is the execution of Buckingham, which in itself raises a number of very interesting themes that dominate the play. Note the way that as he...

I would argue that the novel is more relevant to modern readers now than it might have been 20 years ago. Right before the current recession, many Americans were living beyond their means. While...

You should definitely read The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd. Amazing book, and the movie is not too terrible. I love Cry, The Beloved Country as well. A few other good ones are.... A Lesson...

This is, of course, a matter of opinion. I would argue that the American tax system is basically fair but that it needs some changes to be fairer. The main reason that I think the tax system is...

The paradox that is illustrated through Tom's heartfelt speech in Scene 7 describes his long sought after adventure as if it were a prison. He is imprisoned by his memory of his sister, the...

let, `f(x) = x/(2x-1)` and `f(g(x)) = (x+1)/(1-x)` Suppose g(x) = y then, `f(g(x)) = y/(2y-1)` But we know `f(g(x)) = (x+1)/(1-x)` , therefore, `(x+1)/(1-x) = y/(2y-1)` By solving this for y,...

We have to find f'(x). f(x) is given as (x+1)^-1 - ln(x+1)/(x+2). [(x+1)^-1 - ln(x+1)/(x+2)]' we can write ln (x +1)/(x +2) = ln (x+1) - ln(x+2) => [(x+1)^-1 - ln (x+1) + ln(x+2)]' =>...

The type of person you are describing is often homeless, especially when pictured in an urban setting. Homelessness is, unfortunately, common enough for many of us to have a clear image of what...

I don't know if this is my all time worst or not, but I was really upset with the portrayal of Peeta in the Hunger Games movie. In no way should he have been shorter than Katniss AND he was much...

It's a big question, hard to answer here in any definitive way, but one idea would be to look at the character of Colonel Sartoris. He is described as a typical Southern gentleman, and all the...

Given that: `f(x)= 3x^2` g(x)= l 2x-1 l We need to find the value of fog(-2). ==> fog(-2)= f(g(-2)) ==> g(-2)= l 2*-2 -1 l = l -5l = 54 ==> fog(-2)= f(g(-2)) = f(5) = 3*`5^2` = 3*25 = 75...

Rivers is first introduced to us in Act I scene 3, and is shown to be part of a trio of characters who are related to and allies of Elizabeth, the wife of King Edward IV and the mother of the two...

The expression `(log_3 9)*(log_6 216)` has to be simplified. To accomplish this the properties a*log b = log b^a and log(a) a = 1 are used. `log_3 9 = log_3 3^2 = 2*log_3 3 = 2` `(log_3 9)*(log_6...

Yes. If you know the derivative of a function you can identify the original function by integrating what you have. During integration constants in the original function cannot be identified as they...

You need to force factor `x^4` under the square root such that: `lim_(x-gtoo) (sqrt(x^4(4/x^2 + 9)) + 5x^2)/((2x-1)^2+2x)` You need to force factor `x^2` to numerator and denominator such that:...

`U = x^5` `(dU)/(dx) = 5x^4` `dU/5 = x^4dx` `inte^(x^5)x^4dx` `= inte^UdU/5` `= 1/5inte^UdU` `= 1/5e^U+C` where C is a constant. `= 1/5e^(x^5)+C` So the answer is;...

The Glass Menagerie is set in the early to mid 1940's. These are difficult times where the fortunes of the gilded age decades before cannot be reached. It is a time defined by its gloomy feeling,...

I believe Kesselring's Arsenic and Old Lace, set somewhere in England—with certain aspects of the play changed—would work very well! First of all, the aunts Abby and Martha Brewster are spinsters,...
