Benjamin franklin said, "be assured, a woman's power, as well as happiness, has no other foundation but her husband's esteem and love." based on her thinking after learning of her husband's death, how would mrs. mallard in "the story of an hour" have responded to franklin's idea? use evidence from the story to support your conclusion.

In “The Story of an Hour” Louise Mallard is the protagonist who suffers in a marriage she is not happy with. Different from Benjamin Franklin’s assumption, when her husband dies in a train accident she cries of course, but later she notices that she is free from her marriage and now she has a will to live.

Her marriage made her so miserable she wanted to die and once she is freed from it she desires to live she even screams “free, free, free!” (262).  So you can assume that the character would not agree with Franklin’s thoughts.

for this case, we must find the number of deaths per day of the year 2015, in automobile accidents, knowing that 32,400 people died.

knowing that the year 2015 had 365 days we have the following division:

where "x" represents the number of deaths per day.

rounding off we have:

approximately, 89 people per day died in 2015

answer:

89 people per day

in the line from the end of the story "the cask of the amontillado," by edgar allan poe, the narrator has put the last stone on the wall, thus sentencing fortunato to death. just like that montresor associates his feeling of sickness to the humidity of the catacombs, and seems to be glad he has taken revenge on fortunato. however, montresor's last words are "in pace requiescat," which mean "may he rest in peace." as a result, it can be inferred that he hides or does not want to assume his guilt or remorse for killing fortunato in such a horrible way.
