Read this excerpt from the autobiography of benjamin franklin. the autobiography of benjamin franklin is divided into four parts and documents franklin’s life from 1771 to 1790. select the sentence in the paragraph that demonstrates a tone of superiority. about the end of april, 1724, a little vessel offer'd for boston. i took leave of keimer as going to see my friends. the governor gave me an ample letter, saying many flattering things of me to my father, and strongly recommending the project of my setting up at philadelphia as a thing that must make my fortune. we struck on a shoal in going down the bay, and sprung a leak; we had a blustering time at sea, and were oblig'd to pump almost continually, at which i took my turn. we arriv'd safe, however, at boston in about a fortnight. i had been absent seven months, and my friends had heard nothing of me; for my br. holmes was not yet return'd, and had not written about me. my unexpected appearance surpriz'd the family; all were, however, very glad to see me, and made me welcome, except my brother. i went to see him at his printing-house. i was better dress'd than ever while in his service, having a genteel new suit from head to foot, a watch, and my pockets lin'd with near five pounds sterling in silver. he receiv'd me not very frankly, look'd me all over, and turn'd to his work again.

The sentence in the paragraph that demonstrates a tone of superiority is this one: "I was better dress'd than ever while in his service, having a genteel new suit from head to foot, a watch, and my pockets lin'd with near five pounds sterling in silver."

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that the lines that precede this relate how Franklin, after having lived in Philadelphia for a few months and worked as a printer in the shop of Samuel Keimer, returned to Boston in April of 1724—specifically, although this is not mentioned in the passage, in order to ask his father for financial support to start his own printing business in Philadelphia. Franklin relates how, in spite of the difficult sailing conditions, they arrived safely around two weeks later. It is only at the end when he shows a tone of superiority. He describes how he was dressed when he visited his brother at his printing business, stressing that he was better dressed that day than any other day as his brother's employee, and describing the suit, the watch, and the silver that he carried with him, an appearance that seems to have bothered his brother.      

this is the answer , p = 1 + (1/10)x

step-by-step explanation:

we have,

at sea level pressure is 1 atmosphere (i.e at x =0, p0=1 atmosphere)

at depth 23 meters , pressure = 3.3 atmosphere

since the pressure increases at constant rate as the depth increases, so we can write a relation as:

p =p0 +   kx   , where p is the pressure  , p0 is the initial pressure, x is the depth and k is constant rate of increasing.

to find constant rate k, plug p = 3.3 , p0 = 1 and x= 23 meters

we get,

  3.3 = 1 + k * 23

k = 2.3 / 23   = 1/10

so we can write the function formula as:   p = 1 + (1/10)x

c is a symbol. when bernice gets her hair cut, it is the authors way of showing the affects and demands of pier pressure and the over-all attitudes of people at the time.
