6 Why does O. Henry set this story in the West?
F The West is full of thieves and murderers.
G The West represents violence and disorder.
H The West represents the unknown and discovery.
1 The West is where interesting things happen.

H. The West represents the unknown and discovery.

Explanation:

O. Henry's short story "Hearts and Hands," tells the story of Mr. Easton, a prisoner on his way to the Leavenworth Prison, and how the real Marshall helped mask the embarrassment of Mr. Easton by playing along with his prisoner's story. The story shows how kindness can come from all sides, even from those you wouldn't expect.

The setting of the story is on a Denver train bound for the east. henry most probably set his story in the west because the west probably represents the unknown and discovery, much like the plot of the story where Miss Fairchild eventually came to discover the real truth about Mr. Easton from the nearby passengers.

Thus, the correct answer is option H.

i am confusion this question is confusion

this is the answer , p = 1 + (1/10)x

step-by-step explanation:

we have,

at sea level pressure is 1 atmosphere (i.e at x =0, p0=1 atmosphere)

at depth 23 meters , pressure = 3.3 atmosphere

since the pressure increases at constant rate as the depth increases, so we can write a relation as:

p =p0 +   kx   , where p is the pressure  , p0 is the initial pressure, x is the depth and k is constant rate of increasing.

to find constant rate k, plug p = 3.3 , p0 = 1 and x= 23 meters

we get,

  3.3 = 1 + k * 23

k = 2.3 / 23   = 1/10

so we can write the function formula as:   p = 1 + (1/10)x
