Paraphrase the following passage. Paris. Poor soul, thy face is much abus'd with tears. Juliet. The tears have got small victory
puteri [66]

Answer: This could be a way to paraphrase it:

PARIS. You poor soul, your face has shed many tears.

JULIET. My tears have not benefited from it, since my face was already bad when I started to shed them.

PARIS. You are doing more wrong than the tears to your face by saying that.    

JULIET. That is not a calumny, sir, but the truth. What I said, I said it to my face.

PARIS. That face is mine, and you have defamed it.

JULIET. That may be the case, because it is no longer mine.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that paraphrasing is formulating an original text in a different way, using alternative words. Since the original text in the example is a poem, you have to try to imitate it to the bext extent that you can, but without rendering it exactly—with the goal of making it more understandable to contemporary audiences. This is a passage from Act 4. Paris is talking to Juliet kindly and with affection, but also condescendingly, and Juliet is replying to him bluntly and with indifference.

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
