What explanation do you have for why Kanye West needs signatures in order to appear on the November ballot in the State of Missouri?
What do you think would happen if he did not need signatures?
Answer:
JEFFERSON CITY — Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft said Tuesday that rapper Kanye West did not turn in enough voter signatures to have his name on the Nov. 3 ballot as an independent candidate for president.
West announced his candidacy last month. Ashcroft, a Republican, said West’s campaign turned in 6,557 valid voter signatures — short of the 10,000 signatures needed to make the ballot.
Maura Browning, spokeswoman for the secretary of state’s office, said his campaign turned in 5,072 invalid signatures, or nearly 44% of all the signatures the campaign submitted.
Explanation:
An ant has a mass of approximately 4 x 10-3 grams and an elephant has a mass of approximately 8 x 106 grams.
An ant can lift up to 100 times its mass. How much can the ant lift? Express answer in scientific notation.
Answer: An ant has a mass of approximately 4×10âˆ′3 grams and an elephant has a mass of approximately 8 metric tons.
How many ants does it take to have the same mass as an elephant?
An ant is 10âˆ′1 cm long. If you put all these ants from your answer to part (a) in a line (front to back), how long would the line be? Find two cities in the United States that are a similar distance apart to illustrate this length.
Note: 1 kg = 1000 grams, 1 metric ton = 1000 kg, 1m = 100 cm, 1km = 1000 m
IM Commentary
In this problem students are comparing a very small quantity with a very large quantity using the metric system. The metric system is especially convenient when comparing measurements using scientific notations since different units within the system are related by powers of ten.
Solution
First we observe that the mass of the ant is in grams, where the mass of the elephant is in metric tons. We cannot compare the two masses as is, so we first convert them into the same units. We can do this with ratios, using the conversion chart above to convert metric tons into kilograms and then kilograms into grams.
(8 metric tons)(1000 kg1 metric ton)(1000 grams1 kg)=8,000,000 grams=8×106 grams
Notice that both metric tons and kg appear once on both the top and the bottom, enabling them to be canceled out, leaving only grams. Also note that we could have converted .003 grams into metric tons, and though this would have given an answer with a large number of decimal places, we would end up with the same final result.
Now that both quantities are in grams, we want to find how many ants, n, are required to have the same mass as the elephant. As each ant has a mass of 4×10âˆ′3 grams, we multiply 4×10âˆ′3 by n to get the total mass of the ants
total mass of n ants=4×10−3n
and then we set this equal to the mass of the elephant:
4×10−3n=8×106
We find that n=2×109 ants.
Thus, it takes approximately 2×109 ants to have the same mass as an elephant.
Each ant is 10âˆ′1 cm long, and we have 2×109 ants total. If we put all these ants in a line (front to back), we can find the length of the line by multiplying the length of one ant by how many ants we have:
2×109×10âˆ′1 cm=2×108 cm
As is, this answer is difficult to illustrate because it is such a large number. To find two objects that are this distance apart, we first want to convert centimeters into more useful units. We do this by using ratios from the above chart, converting centimeters to meters and meters to kilometers.
(2×108 cm)(1 m102 cm)(1 km103 m)=2×103 km=2000 km
This amount is much easier to visualize, and it turns out that 2000 km is approximately the driving distance from San Francisco, California to Denver, Colorado.An ant has a mass of approximately 4×10âˆ′3 grams and an elephant has a mass of approximately 8 metric tons.

Why did the Mier y Terán Report lead to the creation of the Law of April 6, 1830?
A. The report showed an excess number of Mexican immigrants
B. The report showed an excess of slaves
C. The report showed the settlers weren’t adopting the Mexican culture and Angleo settlers greatly outnumbered Mexican settlers.
D. The report showed Texas was in debt
Answer:
The Law of April 6, 1830 was issued because of the General Mier y Terán Report. The Law of April 6, 1830 angered many Mexicans, Tejanos, and Anglos alike in Texas. This decree placed a severe halt on American immigration to Mexico. The Texians wanted the 1824 General Colonization Law (Constitution of 1824) to be restored.
Contents
Law Edit
In 1827 and 1829, the United States offered to purchase Mexican Texas.
Both times, President Guadalupe Victoria declined to sell part of the border state.[1] After the failed Fredonian Rebellion in east Texas, the Mexican government asked General Manuel Mier y Terán to investigate the outcome of the 1824 General Colonization Law in Texas. In 1829, Mier y Terán issued his report, which concluded that most Anglo Americans tried to isolate themselves from Mexicans. He also noted that slave reforms passed by the state were being ignored.[2]
Almost all of Mier y Terán's recommendations were adopted in a series of laws passed on April 6, 1830 under President Anastasio Bustamante.[3]
The law explicitly banned any further immigration from the United States to Texas, inclusive of any new slaves.[4] Settlement contracts were brought under federal rather than state control, and colonies that did not have at least 150 inhabitants would be canceled.[5] Provisions of the law were designed to encourage Mexican citizens to move from the interior to Texas. Mexicans who agreed to relocate to Texas would get good land, free transportation to Texas, and some financial assistance.[3] Convicts would be sent to Texas to build fortifications and roads to stimulate trade.[3][6]
Other parts of the law were targeted at those already living in Texas. Bustamante rescinded the property tax law, which had exempted immigrants from paying taxes for ten years. He further increased tariffs on goods entering Mexico from the United States, causing their prices to rise.[7]
Response Edit
The ban and other measures did not stop U.S. citizens from migrating to Texas by the thousands, and by 1834, it was estimated that over 30,000 Anglos lived in Texas,[8] compared to only 7,800 Mexicans.[9]
In regard to slavery, influential settler Stephen F. Austin, who reasoned that the success of his colonies necessitated free slave labor, and the economics it produced in order to lure more whites to the area, used his relationships to get an exemption from the law. [6] Therefore, slavery remained in Texas until the end of the Civil War.

The modern-day Pueblo tribes of the Hopi and Zuni share the same ancestors Which of the following are believed to be their ancestors?
Inca
Maya
Aztec
Anasazi
The modern-day Pueblo tribes of the Hopi and Zuni share the same ancestors. Anasazi are believed to be their ancestors. Thus the correct answer is D.
What are ancestors?A person's ancestors are those from whom they are inherited, and they are typically longer back in the line of a family than a grandparent. Understanding the heritage of our ancestors can help us see the glory in and value of the ideas and rituals we preserve out of remembrance and gratitude.
The Hopi are thought to be Anasazi ancestors, and the term "Anasazi" was established in 1927 by the historical Pecos Classification. It is also believed that other tribes from the Pueblo region descended from the Anasazi.
Changes in the environment caused them to migrate and establish themselves in different areas of the country after they built their homes on hills.
Therefore, option D Anasazi is appropriate.
