Read the excerpt from “the pasture” by robert frost. what is the meter? i’m going out to clean the pasture spring; i’ll only stop to rake the leaves away, a. trochaic trimeter (the foot has a stressed syllable followed by an unstressed syllable. this pattern repeats three times in each line.) b. trochaic hexameter (the foot has a stressed syllable followed by an unstressed syllable. this pattern repeats six times in each line.) c. iambic pentameter (the foot has an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable. this pattern repeats five times in each line.) d. iambic tetrameter (the foot has an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable. this pattern repeats four times in each line.)

The correct answer is C: Iambic Pentameter

Iambic Pentameter is a type of metric line used in traditional English poetry and verse drama. "Pentameter" indicates a line of five "feet".

The foot has an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable. This pattern repeats five times in each line, as we can see below:

U: unstressed

S: stressed

U---SU---SUSUSUS

I'm go | ing out | to clean | the pas | ture spring;  

U---S---U---SUSUSU---S

I'll on | ly stop | to rake | the leaves | away  

USU---SUS---USU---S

(And wait | to watch | the wa | ter clear, | I may):  

USU---SUSS---S--S

I sha'n't | be gone | long.—You | come too.  

U---SUS---USUS---U---S

I'm go | ing out | to fetch | the lit | tle calf  

USUSUSUSU---S

That's stan | ding by | the mo | ther. It's | so young,  

U--SUSUSU--SUS

It tot | ters when | she licks | it with | her tongue.  

USU---SUSS---S--S

I sha'n't | be gone | long.—You | come too.  

for this case, we must find the number of deaths per day of the year 2015, in automobile accidents, knowing that 32,400 people died.

knowing that the year 2015 had 365 days we have the following division:

where "x" represents the number of deaths per day.

rounding off we have:

approximately, 89 people per day died in 2015

answer:

89 people per day

where are the options? i can try to if you add them : )
