literary allusion

Explanation:

An allusion is a literary device used to briefly or indirectly give reference to a person, place, or thing or something that is of historical, political, or literary significance. Just with the mention of this reference the reader have an idea of what the author is trying to tell about.

For instance, If someone is saying, "He's such a Scrooge", that means he is telling that the person resembles "Scrooge", the character of Dickens' Christmas Carol is.

In the same manner, if a poet of another poem is mentioning "The Waste Land" in his poem, then he is using "Literary Allusion", as he is giving reference of a literary work.

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

in this passage from chapter 6 of "animal farm", by george orwell, what the author is ridiculing in this passage is the frivolity of some rules.

clover, the mare, believes she remembers that the fourth commandment forbade sleeping in beds because it was something that humans did. snowball, napoleon, and the pigs are brain-workers who look after the welfare of the farm. they are the obvious leaders because they are smart, and so they are entitled to eat the best food and sleep in beds. it is squealer, who says these lines making the difference between sleeping with sheets, what humans do, and sleeping in beds, what pigs do. the unwillingness to question authority makes the oppressed to obey without thinking.
