President Thomas Jefferson believed that for Americans to be virtuous and free, they needed farmland. He wanted to expand westward to create more farmland. Jefferson also wanted to obtain the Port of New Orleans at the mouth of the Mississippi River so farmers could easily transport their goods. He facilitated the purchase of New Orleans and the rest of the French territory from France in 1803 for $15 million. This new land was called the Louisiana Territory and stretched partway across the continent. It was the first step in expanding the United States. The purchase of the Louisiana Territory led to a pattern of westward expansion through payment, negotiations, and conflict.


Read the passage from the website: www.expandingcountries.edu/unitedstates/louisianapurchase


The Louisiana Purchase doubled the size of the United States and vastly increased its resources and riches. The roles of the president and the Constitution were also defined, as it was determined that the president could purchase the land without consulting Congress. Despite the advantages of expanding westward, one prominent disadvantage was the growing tension between slave states and free states regarding whether new states would permit slavery. The opportunity to grow a nation would endanger its very survival during the Civil War.


According to the information in both texts, how did the Louisiana purchase benefit the United States?


By securing the Mississippi River and the Port of New Orleans to open the door to westward expansion

By strengthening the nation's ally, France

By making President Jefferson happy that the United States had more farmland

Canadian geese fly south every winter. During this migration, the geese need a lot of rest. So, they do not fly for too many hours each day. A scientist tracked one group of geese that only flew 2 hours each day. These geese flew 40 miles each hour. By the end of their trip, they had flown 2,400 miles. How many days did it take the geese to fly south that winter?

Answers

Answer:

30 days *It could also be 15*

Explanation:

2hrs a day

40 miles per hour

2,4000

-------------------------

80 miles per day

2400/80 = 30

30

Answer:

They had flown for 5 days.

Explanation:

What I did was I divided 24 by 2, getting 12, then multiplied 40 by 12 to get 480. I then divided 2400 by 5, and to check, I multiplied 480 by 5. When I divided, I got 480, and when I multiplied, I got 2400.

Book is The Tiger Rising by Kate DiCamillo
Write a full paragraph (4-6 sentences) that answers this question: How do these items shape the character’s perspective and reveal Rob's connection to the tiger?
The items: Loss of robs mom, Kentucky star hotel, and the rash on his legs

Answers

Answer:

The Tiger Rising is the tale of 12-year-old Rob Horton who finds a caged tiger in the woods behind the Kentucky Star Motel where he lives with his dad. The tiger is so incongruous in this setting that Rob views the apparition as some sort of magic trick. Indeed, the tiger triggers all sorts of magic in Rob's life — for one thing, it takes his mind off his recently deceased mother and the itchy red blisters on his legs that the wise motel housekeeper, Willie May, says is a manifestation of the sadness that Rob keeps "down low." Something else for Rob to think about is Sistine (as in the chapel), a new city girl with fierce black eyes who challenges him to be honest with her and himself. Spurred by the tiger, events collide to break Rob out of his silent introspection, to form a new friendship with Sistine, to develop a new understanding of his father, and most important, to lighten his heart. This novel is about cages — the consequences of escape as well as imprisonment. The story and symbolism are clear as a bell, and the emotions ring true.

Which two elements does this excerpt from A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens contain?

"There's the Parrot!" cried Scrooge. "Green body and yellow tail, with a thing like a lettuce growing out of the top of his head; there he is! Poor Robin Crusoe, he called him, when he came home again after sailing round the island. 'Poor Robin Crusoe, where have you been, Robin Crusoe?' The man thought he was dreaming, but he wasn't. It was the Parrot, you know. There goes Friday, running for his life to the little creek! Halloa! Hoop! Halloo!

Then, with a rapidity of transition to his usual, character, he said, in pity for his former self, "Poor boy!" and cried again.

"I wish," Scrooge muttered, putting his hand in his pocket, and looking about him, after drying his eyes with his cuff: "but it's too late now."

"What is the matter?" asked the Spirit.

"Nothing," said Scrooge. "Nothing. There was a boy singing a Christmas Carol at my door last night. I should like to have given him something: that's all."

Answer: PRIAM, THE KING OF TROY

When Hector is killed by Achilles, the Greek warrior treats the body with disrespect and refuses to give it back. According to Homer in book XXIV of the Iliad, Zeus sends the god Hermes to escort King Priam, Hector's father and the ruler of Troy, into the Greek camp. Priam tearfully pleads with Achilles to take pity on a father bereft of his son and return Hector's body. He invokes the memory of Achilles' own father, Peleus. Priam begs Achilles to pity him, saying "I have endured what no one on earth has ever done before – I put my lips to the hands of the man who killed my son." Deeply moved, Achilles relents and returns Hector's corpse to the Trojans. Both sides agree to a temporary truce, and Achilles gives Priam leave to hold a proper funeral for Hector, complete with funeral games. He promises that no Greek will engage in combat for at least nine days, but on the twelfth day of peace, the Greeks would all stand once more and the mighty war would continue.

Priam killed by Neoptolemus, detail of an Attic black-figure amphora, ca. 520–510 BC

Priam is killed during the Sack of Troy by Achilles' son Neoptolemus (also known as Pyrrhus). His death is graphically related in Book II of Virgil's Aeneid. In Virgil's description, Neoptolemus first kills Priam's son Polites in front of his father as he seeks sanctuary on the altar of Zeus. Priam rebukes Neoptolemus, throwing a spear at him, harmlessly hitting his shield. Neoptolemus then drags Priam to the altar and there kills him too. Priam's death is alternatively depicted in some Greek vases. In this version, Neoptolemus clubs Priam to death with the corpse of the latter's baby grandson, Astyanax.

It has been suggested by Hittite sources, specifically the Manapa-Tarhunta letter, that there is historical basis for the archetype of King Priam. The letter describes one Piyama-Radu as a troublesome rebel who overthrew a Hittite client king and thereafter established his own rule over the city of Troy (mentioned as Wilusa in Hittite). There is also mention of an Alaksandu, suggested to be Alexander (King Priam's son from the Iliad), a later ruler of the city of Wilusa who established peace between Wilusa and Hatti (see the Alaksandu treaty).

Marriage-

Priam is said to have fathered fifty sons and many daughters, with his chief wife Hecuba, daughter of the Phrygian king Dymas and many other wives and concubines. These children include famous mythological figures such as Hector, Paris, Helenus, Cassandra, Deiphobus, Troilus, Laodice, Polyxena, Creusa, and Polydorus. Priam was killed when he was around 80 years old by Achilles' son Neoptolemus.

Answer:

i'm lonely..

Something I don't usually say out loud. I try to hide it from everyone I see. Even when I try to distract myself, its still there. No matter what I say, no matter what i do, its still there. I try hiding the feeling, keeping it tucked away, so that I dont show it. I push it down deep inside of me but its like a balloon, always coming back up. The littlest thing can make it burst. everything I try to do won't make it go away. I try laughing to make it disappear, but I always feel its presence. The thing Im trying to say is... I'm lonely, sad, and feeling hurt. The world is making it worse for me. We all have struggles and I feel last. I let people depend on me, but when I need to depend on them its different. I dont show my emotions out to the world, I feel like the world is against me everyday. I hate the way I feel when Im in my bed, alone with my thoughts stuck in my head. No one, to help me other than myself. Everyone asleep in the quiet night, I feel like nobody cares about me. I need a break, but I can't take one. I let everyone take their own. I'll do what they need before I take mine....So I am alone, more like lonely. This is me in the world and I wouldn't change it..., but I still am lonely and I still want to change that.
