What is the difference between what is certain and what is probable? If, as in a courtroom, the jury decides that something has been proved "beyond a reasonable doubt," does that mean that it is certainly true or merely highly probable? Are we persuaded only by what is certain or sometimes by what is probable, in that it is likely to be true, or that most people would agree that it is true?
Answer:
When something is certain it means it is something that is sure, there is no doubt it is like that. However, when something is probable it means that it is very likely to be true but it is not certain.
If a jury decides that something has been proved "beyond a reasonable doubt" it means it is almost certainly true. This means the jury have no doubt or that the doubts are unreasonable and that is why the person is found guilty.
We are persuaded not only by what is certain but also by what is probable.
Explanation:
To complete this exercise, you have to answer the questions about the concept of persuasion, certainty and probability.
The concept "beyond a reasonable doubt" is used in courtrooms by the jury when there is proof enough to say that something has been proved. It means that something is legally accepted as being true.

Read the passage from Theseus.
The passage most supports the conclusion that
O most Greeks had bold characters.
O the Greek people valued beauty.
most Greeks had mixed parentage.
O the Greek people valued respect.
Of all his adventures, the one for which Theseus is best
known is his confrontation with the Minotaur on the
island of Crete. The king of Crete, Minos, was the son
of a god, Jupiter, and a human, Europa. The Minotaur,
a fearsome beast that was part man, part bull, was
born to Minos's wife. The story went that King Minos
was once given a white bull to sacrifice to Poseidon,
but the bull was so beautiful he decided to sacrifice
another bull instead. In revenge, Poseidon caused King
Minos's wife, Pasiphaë, to fall madly in love with the
white bull. The Minotaur was their offspring. As it grew
older, it grew wilder and fed on humans, so King Minos
had him confined in a labyrinth built by the great
artisan, Daedalus
The correct answer is D. The Greek people valued respect.
Explanation:
In this passage about the Minotaur, the author explains this was a punishment to King Minos for not sacrificing a white bull, which would be considered disrespectful behavior towards deities. Moreover, this punishment implied not only that King Minos' wife had offspring with a bull, but that this offspring was highly destructive and King Minos was responsible for controlling the minotaur. In this context, the author shows how important was in Greek culture respect toward gods and the consequences a disrespectful behavior could have.

Answer and Explanation:
"Romeo and J *" is one of Shakespeare's most famous works and one of the most influential in French literature. this work presents a well-structured plot, a surprising ending and a love story that has never been the same, caught in family disputes and conflicts that lead to a tragic outcome. All this importance, made this work one of the most adapted in the world.
The film "Romeo and J *" released in 1968 is the adaptation of Shakespeare's play that best covers all the themes exposed by the author. This is because the work is faithful to the historical period, the history written by Shakespere, the representation of the stage directions that Shakespeare informed and even the scenery and costumes are faithful to the original work. In addition, the script was very poorly adapted, which promotes the fidelity of the adaptation to the original work.
We can agree that no other version is as faithful as this one, although many have been made. However, when we talk about adaptations of Shakespeare's work, it would not be correct to consider adaptations that present a recount of the work, because in this case, another story is presented with only elements of the story written by Shakespeare and not an adaptation of the original story.

What is the most likely reason that Kashyap included story of Roja R.? How does this example affect her argument?
This question is about "Clothing Brands Need to Step Up and Keep Women Safe in Their Factories"
Answer:
Kashyap included Roja R's story to show evidence of how many places have supported fair working conditions for women. This example, makes Kashyap's argument gain veracity and validation, since it addresses a real issue.
Explanation:
Kashyap's article shows a situation that is unfortunately very common in our modern world. This is because women's rights and protection in the industrial sector is still underestimated and disrespected in the industrial sector.
To reinforce this argument, the author uses the real case of women working in a clothing factory in India. This is the case with Roja R who is constantly harassed by his superiors, but can do nothing against it, for fear of losing his job. Roja, even reported the case to the company's board of directors who said that this is a normal situation and that it does no harm to anyone. She should adapt or leave the company.

Hi, I need a 5 paragraph essay about whether or not Utah state legislators should change the age guidelines for drivers in Utah from sixteen to eighteen. the minimum amount of must be 4 sentences per paragraph. Thank you so much to whoever would like to do this!
Answer:alr i gotchu<3
Explanation
Drivers are often not getting enough training and not experianced enough and by changing the drivers age guidelines from sixteen to eighteen that could no longer be a problem. There is quite a big age difference between 16 and 18 so young drivers would be a lot more mature. Keeping teens safe is the primary argument for raising the driving age. With more than one-third of teenagers classified as overweight or obese, eliminating an opportunity for exercise would not be considered very often if they could hop in the car and drive. Raising the driving age would stop unhealthy multitasking habits. It could lower teen fatality rates.
Maturity really comes into place in this situation because The brain isn't fully developed at 18; that doesn't happen until a person's mid-20s, typically. However, emotional maturity increases with age and experience. While a 16-year-old may drive faster than is safe because her friends tease her for being slow, at 18, that same teen may have the maturity to consider consequences and resist peer pressure.
At sixteen parents are worrying about if their kid/kids are being safe while driving, especially on the freeway. The fatal crash rate per mile driven is nearly twice as high for 16-17 year-olds as it is for 18-19 year-olds. High speed thrills are often part of the teen driving experience. Although those thrills aren’t going to go away, there is more decision-making skills that have been practiced in the two years from 16 to 18. Keeping minors from getting behind the wheel unsupervised could prevent injury and death not only to these teen drivers but for their passengers and drivers in other cars.
With more than one-third of teenagers classified as overweight or obese, eliminating an opportunity for exercise would not be considered very often if they could hop in the car and drive. Now by making the driving age 18 that gives teens another two years of a source of exersise especially if they live not too far from school. Health concerns factor into driving age debates. Even if a teen can safely walk to a friend's house or school, it's unlikely he'll choose that option if he can hop in the car instead. There’s no denying that today’s kids are dealing with weight issues. 1 in 3 Americans, for example, are overweight right now and the percentage keeps increasing. By raising the driving age 2 years, older teens may be encouraged to exercise more and learn healthier habits since the car isn’t available to them.
Raising the driving age would stop unhealthy multitasking habits such as: texting while driving, answering calls while driving, ect. In the younger teen years, smartphones and other technology distractions can make driving very dangerous. At the age of 18, there have been adjustments made so that technology isn’t as important as driving when compared to the age of 16. there are too many distractions for younger drivers.
It could lower teen fatality rates. Many high schoolers don't have cars or even driver's licenses but do have a friend with wheels. Teens are most likely to have fatal crashes when they're driving with passengers. the risk of a fatal crash increases with each passenger. So if your child's lab partner or crush can't load the gang into his car for a fast-food run because he's not old enough to drive, you don't have to worry about her safety as a passenger in the car with him.
in conclusion raising the teen driving age to sixteen would help drivers be safe, causaus, and aware of their surroundings making sure that they are paying attention to whats infront of them instead of goofing around.
some of this was spelled inncorrectly so i hope you can figure that out but i really hope this helped<3:) also i didnt add anything about utah so im sorry but i hope this still works!
