Answer 1

We can classify as facts the sentences "half a century after," "50,000 African Americans" and "five days a week." Furthermore, we can classify as opinion the sentences "it was very humiliating" and "to suffer the indignity."

What are the differences between the fact and opinion categories?

• The fact is an objective sentence.
• The fact is a proven sentence.
• The fact is a sentence that presents data.
• The opinion is a subjective sentence.
• The opinion does not present data.
• Opinion is a person's perception of something.

In the above question, we can classify as facts the sentences that show data as numbers that prove the statement. On the other hand, we can classify as opinion the sentences that show the narrator's sentimentality or his perception of what he is seeing.
