. Nights and Dragons—
From the memoir of author Abigail Prynne
I sit at my desk listening to thunder growl outside my window. Flashes of light burst through the darkness, and wind races past my window. The thrilling combination of sight and sound conjures up visions of dragons roaring proudly, breathing fire, and soaring across the midnight sky. Dragons first fascinated me when I was a little girl. They have followed me ever since. The magnificent creatures appeared in storybooks I read in the library, paintings I saw in museums, movies I watched in the theater, and the dreams I had in my sleep. By the time I was thirteen, one question consumed me. I wanted to know if dragons ever existed, so I set out on a quest for facts.

What do the first two sentences of this paragraph imply
Multiply negative 1 over 6 multiplied by negative 1 over 5 . get the anwer please

Answers

Answer:

a) it is a stormy night

b) 1/30

Explanation:

a) We can answer this question by analyzing what the protagonist experienced with her senses.

She states she heard growling of a thunder and saw flashes of light. These flashes of light represent lightning. Lightning together with the sound of thunder helps us infer that there is a storm raging outside. Later in the paeagraph she compares this scenery to a dragon roaring and breathing fire.

b) If I understood correctly, the task was to multiply (-1/6) • (-1/5).

When multiplying fractions, we separately multiply numerators (top number) and denominators (bottom number). So, the numerator of the solution will be (-1) • (-1) which is positive 1 (when multiplying two negative numbers, the outcome is always positive value), and the denominator of the solution will be 6 • 5 which is 30.

So, the product of these two fractions will be positive 1/30.

Answer: The first two sentences of this paragraph imply of It is a stormy night.

The killing of King Duncan by Macbeth is presented as an unnatural act in the play. State why the Elizabethans would have considered regicide as an act against nature, and point out how this idea is reinforced by comments and incidents throughout the story.

Answers

During Shakespearean times, monarchs were seen as being God’s deputies on earth, having a ‘divine right’ to rule; the monarch had absolute power, and an attack on him or her, even a verbal one was considered to be a treason. Therefore, the audiences were shocked by Macbeth's plot.

In Act II scene I, as Macbeth is about to kill Duncan, his monologue shows how guilty he feels to commit such crime because he knows it goes against all beliefs

Identify the number of independent and subordinate clauses in the following group of words. When Janine does volunteer work, she feels a sense of joy and fulfillment

Answers

First of all a Independent clause consists of both a subject and a verb and can stand on it own and make a complete sentence. A subordinate clause is a dependent clause which too consists of a verb and a subject but does not stand on its own and isn't a complete sentence.

In this case the Independent clause is "She feels a sense of joy and fulfillment". The subject is "She" and the verb is "feels" and this can be a complete sentence.
"When Jamie does volunteer work" is the subordinate clause. The subject is "Jamie" and the verb is "does". Also, this is not a complete sentence.

So one independent clause and one subordinate clause.
