Ineed but above the gray land and the spasms of bleak dust which drift endlessly over it, you perceive, after a moment, the eyes of doctor t. j. eckleburg. the eyes of dr. t. j. eckleburg are blue and gigantic—their retinas are one yard high. they look out of no face, but, instead, from a pair of enormous yellow spectacles which pass over a non-existent nose. what is the most likely purpose of the symbolism used in this passage? a. to signify the omniscience of god who looks disapprovingly on what he sees b. to add humor and interest to an otherwise barren and depressing landscape c. to establish the setting in which the action of the novel unfolds d. to stand for the invisible people who inhabit the valley of the ashes

The Great Gatsby is full of symbolism. In this particular passage spends many sentences describing two eyes that seem to be alive. He contrasts the arid area where he is with the very bright colours, blue and yellow, of the eyes. This eyes even seem to have horrifying elements, as he says "they look out of no face" and "pass over a non-existent nose".

The fact that the character personifies these inanimated eyes makes us think that they actually represent something else. They represent a huge, displeased watcher. So, we can say for sure that the correct answer is A: To signify the omniscience of God who looks disapprovingly on what He sees.

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
