Answer: C) people have little control over their own lives.

Explanation: In the given lines we can see that the theme of the story that is best represented is that people have little control over their own lives, because the lines imply that doesn't matter what a person does or says, if the fortune want to trick a man, she will do it in ways that the man doesn't expect at all, so this gives the idea of people having little or no control over their lives.

There are two piles, one containing 9gold coins and the other 11silver coins. The two piles of coins weigh the same. One coin is
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

Weight of silver coin = 29.25 units , weight of gold coin = 35.75 units

Explanation:

Let the weight of 1 gold coin be W_{1}

Weight of 1 silver coin be W_{2}

Total no of gold coins = 9

Total no of silver coins = 11

Total weight of gold coins = 9\times W_{1}

Total weight of silver coins = 11\times W_{2}

It is given that both weigh same thus we have

9W_{1}=11W_{2}............(i)

After replacing coins the weights become as under

Gold Stack\\9W_{1}-W_{1}+W_{2}=8W_{1}+W_{2}\\\\SilverStack\\\\11W_{2}-W_{2}+W_{1}=10W_{2}+W_{1}

Now it is given that gold stack weighs 13 unit less thus adding 13 units to gold stack gives it's weight equal to silver stack

the above relation modifies as

8W_{1}+W_{2}+13=10W_{2}+W_{1}\\7W_{1}+13=9W_{2}..........(ii)

8W_{1}+W_{2}+13=10W_{2}+W_{1}\\7W_{1}+13=9W_{2}..........(ii)\\\\7\frac{11W_{2}}\\\\Solving equation i and ii we get\\\\{9}+13=9W_{2}\\\\77W_{2}+117=81W_{2}\\\\4W_{2}=117\\\\W_{2}=\frac{117}{4}=29.25units\\\\W_{1}=\frac{11W_{2}}{9}=35.75units
