Alliterations in beowulf

VIII. 1. "For fear of a feud were forced to disown him" ...

XII. 1. "came from the moor then Grendel going..." ...

XX. 1. "The hell-spirit humbled..." ...

XXIII. 1. "Grisly and greedy, that the grim one's dominion..." ...

XXVIII. 1. "He bound to the bank then the broad-bosomed vessel..."

Alliteration, is the use of repetition of initial sounds in words close to one another. In Beowulf, alliteration is the mainstay of the poem. ... The words, 'Up from his swampland, sliding silently,' allow us to imagine Grendel slipping into the hall unseen.

in the problem you wrote said that the taxi charges $0.070 per mile(which would be 7 cents per mile), but then in your suggested equation you have it as $0.70 per mile (which is 70 cents per mile).

the latter seems more realistic, so i will assume that the taxi costs $5.00 and charges $0.70 per mile with tolls costing an additional $3.50. and it asks you to find how far you can travel on $36.50.

let x the number of miles traveled. since the taxi charges $0.70 per mile, multiplying this by the miles traveled (x) will yield the cost of the taxi ride as far as how far it took you. then adding this amount to the cost of the taxi ($5.00) and the additional cost for the tolls ($3.50) will give you the total cost of the taxi ride ($36.50)

that is,

            (0.70)x + 5.00 + 3.50 = 36.50

adding the like terms on the left-hand side of this equation, we arrive at the following:

            (0.70)x + 8.50 = 36.50

subtracting 8.50 from both sides of the equation, we get:

            (0.70)x = 28.00

to solve for x, divide both sides of the equation above by the coefficient of x (that being, 0.70):

            x = 40

thus, you can travel up to 40 miles on $36.50
