rina knew she was running late. her interview was scheduled for 3: 00 this afternoon. as she jogged across the school parking lot, steam seemed to rise from the hot pavement. strands of rina’s dark hair came loose from her ponytail. as she approached her car, rina reached into her backpack for her keys. her backpack was as organized as usual, with tidy pockets holding her books and folders. much to her dismay, the pocket that always held her keys was unzipped . . and empty.

Explanation:

Setting in a literary piece of work means geographical location (place) and time at which action of the plot takes place. Setting serves as a backdrop to characters' actions.

This excerpt has a time setting i.e. 3:00 this afternoon (not included in options). There are some references to places such as parking lot, school, and hot pavement.

Interview and backpack are neither places nor time, so they are not parts of setting of this excerpt.

Parking lot

School

Hot pavement

paine is arguying that they had tried everything before coming to the conclusion that they needed to fight for their freedom.

argument: "every quiet method for peace hath been ineffectual."

claim 1: "our prayers have been rejected with disdain; and only tended to convince us, that nothing flatters vanity, or confirms obstinacy in kings more than repeated petitioning and nothing hath contributed more than that very measure to make the kings of europe absolute."

claim 2: "wherefore, since nothing but blows will do, for god’s sake, let us come to a final separation, and not leave the next generation to be cutting throats, under the violated unmeaning names of parent and child."

this is the answer , p = 1 + (1/10)x

step-by-step explanation:

we have,

at sea level pressure is 1 atmosphere (i.e at x =0, p0=1 atmosphere)

at depth 23 meters , pressure = 3.3 atmosphere

since the pressure increases at constant rate as the depth increases, so we can write a relation as:

p =p0 +   kx   , where p is the pressure  , p0 is the initial pressure, x is the depth and k is constant rate of increasing.

to find constant rate k, plug p = 3.3 , p0 = 1 and x= 23 meters

we get,

  3.3 = 1 + k * 23

k = 2.3 / 23   = 1/10

so we can write the function formula as:   p = 1 + (1/10)x
