Which excerpt from langston hughes's poem "madam and the rent man" best demonstrates the speaker's determination?
i said, what
can i do for you?
the sink is broke,
the water don't run,
if it's money you want
you're out of luck.
i said, neither am i.
so we agrees!

If it's money you want

Explanation:

The poem "Madam and the Rent Man", Langston Hughes talks about the living conditions of a woman in a dilapidated house. The unsatisfactory condition of the house led to the the frequent argument between the rent man and the woman whenever he come to get the rent.

Arguing with the man, the woman complained about the un-kept promises that the agent have seemingly forgotten. The woman then lists the issues that  she founds regarding the house, "sink is broke,  The water don't run... Back window's cracked,  Kitchen floor squeaks,  There's rats in the cellar,  And the attic leaks". She is determined not to pay the rent as long as the issues of the house are unresolved.

Thus, the lines that demonstrates her determination the line that says that the rent man is out of luck if he's after money.

x=4, y=4

step-by-step explanation:

y=2x-4;

x+2y=12

we can use substitution since the first equation is solved for y

where ever you see y in the second equation, replace it with 2x-4

x + 2(2x-4) = 12

distribute the 2

x+4x-8 = 12

combine like terms

5x-8=12

add 8 to each side

5x-8+8=12+8

5x=20

divide by 5

5x/5 = 20/5

x =4

we still need to solve for y

y = 2x-4

we know x =4

y = 2(4) -4

y = 8-4

y=4
