PLEASE HELP ME!! WHAT IS THIS POEM ABOUT “Verities” (2014)
By Grace Cavalieri

Maybe she had dementia,
the old lady in the woolen hat,
I don't know, but she
stopped short in the middle of the aisle,
when her son shouted, PUT THAT BACK.
Clutching a small bag of chips -
like a newborn against her chest,
like a prayer,
like something she owned -
her face collapsed,
Please, but no sound came except,
PUT IT BACK! NOW! PUT IT BACK!
This was Christmas Eve, not that it matters;
Why even embellish a story like that.
I can only tell you I walked behind her
as she walked behind her son,
until I could no longer watch,
yet there was something about
her lopsided hat, her lowered head
that made me sure
no matter what happened next,
she would not put it back.

substitute y = 2x - 4 to x + 2y = 12:

x + 2(2x - 4) = 12     use distributive property

x + (2)(2x) + () = 12

x + 4x - 8 = 12     add 8 to both sides

5x = 20     divide both sides by 5

x = 4

put the value of x to the first equation:

y = 2(4) - 4

y = 8 - 4

y = 4

the answer is c? i just got it write

the symbol of the grandfather's heritage in this excerpt from "the medicine bag,” is the beaded bolo tie.

a bolo tie is a cord fastened around the neck with an ornamental clasp which is worn as a necktie. they have been used by native american tribes such as hopi, navajo, zuni, and puebloans since the mid-20th century.

therefore, the fact that the grandfather is wearing a bolo tie refers to his heritage as native american.

the correct answer is: reveal gregor as an untidy individual.

in metamorphosis by franz kafka, gregor samsa is the main character, who one day wakes up as a bug, and the attitude he takes upon his transformation forces him to go deeper on his existence and the new features of his body.

in this excerpt the writer mentions a table full of collection textile samples, which gives us a hint about gregor being messy. later on the book we discover how he is a really untidy individual.
