Read the poem and answer the question. "an hymn to the evening" soon as the sun forsook the eastern main, the pealing thunder shook the heav'nly plain: majestic grandeur! from the zephyr's wing exhales the incense of the blooming spring. soft purl the streams; the birds renew their notes, and through the air their mingled music floats. through all the heav'ns what beauteous dies are spread! but the west glories in the deepest red: so may our breasts with ev'ry virtue glow, the living temples of our god below. fill'd with the praise of him who gives the light and draws the sable curtains of the night, let placid slumbers sooth each weary mind at morn to wake more heav'nly, more refin'd; so shall the labours of the day begin more pure, more guarded from the snares of sin. night's leaden sceptre seals my drowsy eyes; then cease, my song, till fair aurora rise. what does the word sable mean in line 12?
dark
fur
gloomy
thick

in the problem you wrote said that the taxi charges $0.070 per mile(which would be 7 cents per mile), but then in your suggested equation you have it as $0.70 per mile (which is 70 cents per mile).

the latter seems more realistic, so i will assume that the taxi costs $5.00 and charges $0.70 per mile with tolls costing an additional $3.50. and it asks you to find how far you can travel on $36.50.

let x the number of miles traveled. since the taxi charges $0.70 per mile, multiplying this by the miles traveled (x) will yield the cost of the taxi ride as far as how far it took you. then adding this amount to the cost of the taxi ($5.00) and the additional cost for the tolls ($3.50) will give you the total cost of the taxi ride ($36.50)

that is,

            (0.70)x + 5.00 + 3.50 = 36.50

adding the like terms on the left-hand side of this equation, we arrive at the following:

            (0.70)x + 8.50 = 36.50

subtracting 8.50 from both sides of the equation, we get:

            (0.70)x = 28.00

to solve for x, divide both sides of the equation above by the coefficient of x (that being, 0.70):

            x = 40

thus, you can travel up to 40 miles on $36.50

i think its,

b) the narrator's mental state is anguished.
