The answer to the following question:

Read this excerpt from Infinite Jest. ‘I could, if you’d let me, talk and talk. Let’s talk about anything. I believe the influence of Kierkegaard on Camus is underestimated. I believe Dennis Gabor may very well have been the Antichrist. I believe Hobbes is just Rousseau in a dark mirror. I believe, with Hegel, that transcendence is absorption. I could interface you guys right under the table,’ I say. ‘I’m not just a creâtus, manufactured, conditioned, bred for a function.’ What assumption does the narrator make in this excerpt? that the people he is addressing enjoy long conversations that the people he is addressing appreciate intellectualism that the people he is addressing have researched philosophy that the people he is addressing expect a confrontation

is:

that the people he is addressing appreciate intellectualism

the catch is that the top numbers are atomic masses the bottom numbers are the numbers of protons and electrons in an uncharged atom. they are the number of that atoms as you would find them on the periodic table. further, the numbers on the left are used to determine the missing numbers on the right

so here we go

atomic mass

239 + 1 = y + 134 + 3 combine like terms

240 = y + 137             subtract 137 from both terms

240 - 137 = y

103 = y

atomic number

94 = z +54 + 0

94 = z + 54               subtract 54 from both sides.

40 = z
