Machiavelli’s the prince evoked so much discussion and controversy since this book's purpose was to regain support for Lorenzo de' Medici and for him to return to his position as a politician. Thank you for posting your question. I hope this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.

Many people found it disturbing because of the methods that he suggested for staying in power as a ruler. One example can be when he says that if you take down a king, you have numerous options what to do with his family. He further says that although there are many ways to handle them, history has proven that the most effective is to kill everyone, which made the people call him evil or much worse. He does not however state that this is his belief, but rather that this is what successful rulers throughout history did, so it's kind of a misunderstanding.

What can you infer about the speaker's feelings toward her father? why doesn't she try to intervene in the conflict between her
hodyreva [135]

This poem written by Diane Glancy, reflects her Native American heritage. Her father, a Cherokee man is the main character for the poem. She portrays the conflict between his native american identity and the westernized world in which he lives.  The author implies that despite living disconnected from his traditions and working packing meat, her father remains Cherokee.

The author's feelings towards her father seem to be of love, respect and sadness. I find the poem nostalgic, and there seems to be a sense of being out of place in this world.

The conflict between her parents seems to fit the idea of the poem. Her father brings home hide and horns from work (representing his heritage), and her (western) mother rejects this. The author is just an observer in this poem.

The hide and horns are important, since some native americans relied heavily on the hide, meat and everything else provided by buffalos, which is also a theme in the poem.

The author of "How to Jump-Start a Car Battery" uses a(n) _____ tone in the article.
Sergio [31]
It seems it is somehow humorous because the man end up saying that if you can do it on your own, you can take the car to their place and they will do it for you. 

It could not be angry or annoyed because he is willing to explain and he is even making a video about it. 
As regards bitter, it does not fit as a possibility for the video or his explanation of the subject.

skelet666 [1.2K]

This question is missing the poem. I've found it online. It is as follows:

Fragrant

Lovely

Opened wide

Wind blows

Eager bee

              - Rachelle Kreisman

What does the acrostic poem by Rachelle Kreisman describe? a flower in the springtime the sound of ducks quacking a young horse, galloping in a field flocks of little duckling

Answer:

The poem describes a flower in the springtime.

Explanation:

An acrostic poem uses the letters of its topic word(s) as the first letter of each line. Notice the first letters in Kreisman's poem spell flower:

Fragrant

Lovely

Opened wide

Wind blows

Eager bee

Besides that, each line of the acrostic poem offers a description related to the topic. In this case, we get to know the flower is fragrant and lovely, that it is in bloom, swaying with the wind while attracting bees. In summary, it is describing a flower in the springtime.
