In “we wear the mask,” how does the poet use irony to reject the romantic notion of idealism?
a by describing how people attempt to hide their pain by pretending to be happy
b by pointing out that most people are truly happy, despite appearing depressed
c by describing how people attempt to appear happy for the sake of material gain
d by pointing out that most people are unable to recognize their own emotions

The correct answer is A.

The poem "We Wear the Mask" uses irony to mock the ideal idea of happiness.

It shows how many people put on a "mask", a good face, despite of being sad and in pain. How important it is to seem happy, insted of truly being happy.

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
