Read the excerpt from “Raymond's Run.”

I was once a strawberry in a Hansel and Gretel pageant when I was in nursery school and didn’t have no better sense than to dance on tiptoe with my arms in a circle over my head doing umbrella steps and being a perfect fool just so my mother and father could come dressed up and clap. You’d think they’d know better than to encourage that kind of nonsense. I am not a strawberry.

If you want to go the DIY route, you will have to take your smartphone apart, detaching the screen and other parts before getting to the battery. Since most parts are glued together, you would also have to remove and then reapply adhesive. Do not attempt this if you do not have the right tools.

What are linear equations?

An equation is said to be linear if the maximum power of the variable is consistently 1. Another name for it is a one-degree equation. A linear equation with one variable has the conventional form Ax + B = 0. In this case, the variables x and A are variables, while B is a constant. A linear equation with two variables has the conventional form Ax + By = C.

Given that y varies inversely as x varies

according to the condition y is inversely proportional to the x,

the equation can b written with the sign of proportionality,

y ∝ 1/x

when the proportionality sign is removed a constant is added, say k

so the equation is,

y = k × 1/x

y = k/x

given values of x and y

x = 12 and y = 5,

with these values, we can calculate the value of k

substitute the values of x and y in the equation,

y = k/x

5 = k/12

k = 5×12

k = 60

to find the value of y when x is 15

x = 15,

substitute values in the equation,

y = k/x

where k = 60

y = 60/15

y = 4

Hence the value of y for the condition is y = 4.

What are John Proctor's greatest strengths and weaknesses as a character? Explain whether or not he ever redeems himself as a "good man" and provide an explanation of how his character relates to the time of McCarthyism in the 1950's in America. Use specific actions and dialogue of his to support your answer.

Answers

This question is about "the crucible".

John Proctor is a complex and layered character. He is extremely important to the plot and is one of the main characters. Like any complex character, Proctor has positive and negative points that govern his entire plot.

Among Proctor's negative points we can mention his concern with the appearance and his status. This is because in order not to lose the fame of a correct man, of judgment and of goodness, Proctor allows Abigail to create a plot of lies that leads countless people to suffer and causes an extreme stasis in the city. As a positive point we can mention his ability to reflect and take the blame for his mistakes, even after a great deal of damage had been done.

This positive point made Proctor redeem himself at a certain point in the narrative when he assumes his dishonesty in a public confession and brings a little peace to the region, even if it means his end.

Proctor has a very strong connection with a philosophy called McCarthyism that was very influential in 1950. McCarthyism is characterized as a period in which it was common and even encouraged to accuse people who were considered traitors to the capitalist system. This is related to Proctor, because Abigail started a series of accusations, as a way to punish Proctor for his actions.
