What verb tense does hg wells use in the novel the war of the worlds

Let me say this is one of my favourite works from Wells. The way the story unfolds, and the narrative is genius!

War of the Worlds was a novel written between 1895 and 1897, by English author H.G. Wells. For reference, here is an excerpt from the book:

"As I watched, the planet seemed to grow larger and smaller and to advance and recede, but that was simply that my eye was tired. Forty millions of miles it was from us—more than forty millions of miles of void. Few people realise the immensity of vacancy in which the dust of the material universe swims."

Wells uses this writing style in the entire book, added to a very small background from the characters that participate in it.

The verb tense HG Wells uses is 'past'

Hope this helps! Have a great 2019!

looks good to me! send it in!

explanation:

x=4, y=4

step-by-step explanation:

y=2x-4;

x+2y=12

we can use substitution since the first equation is solved for y

where ever you see y in the second equation, replace it with 2x-4

x + 2(2x-4) = 12

distribute the 2

x+4x-8 = 12

combine like terms

5x-8=12

add 8 to each side

5x-8+8=12+8

5x=20

divide by 5

5x/5 = 20/5

x =4

we still need to solve for y

y = 2x-4

we know x =4

y = 2(4) -4

y = 8-4

y=4
