Answers

Answer 1
Answer: A. It was the first election in which a woman had a very good chance of winning a major party's nomination.

Explanation: The election to president of the United States of 2008 took place on Tuesday, November 4, 2008. The election determined the voters of the Electoral College of the United States and the presidential candidate who received the majority of the votes (270) by the College. Electoral to be the 44th President of the United States was Barack Obama, while Vice President Joe Biden was the 47th Vice President of the United States. If no presidential candidate had a majority vote of the Electoral College, the president would have been elected by the House of Representatives of the United States, which would have voted for States, and each State would have one vote. Likewise, if there had not been a majority in votes for the office of vice president, the United States Senate would have been in charge of electing it, voting through ballots.
But none of this was necessary, because Obama's victory was incontestable. In fact, the Democratic candidate won that day the support of states that had not supported his party for many years, such as North Carolina (the last time had been in 1976), or Indiana and Virginia (1964). As for the popular vote, Obama obtained the support of 69 498 516 voters, being the highest figure ever achieved by a presidential candidate until today.
As occurred in the 2004 presidential election, the allocation of electoral votes to each state was based partially on the US census for the year 2000. The elected president and vice president took office on Tuesday, January 20, 2009
Simultaneously the elections to the House of Representatives and, in thirty-three states, the elections to the Senate were developed. The governors of eleven states were also elected.

life.

Answers

Answer:

C. We are so grateful to you for having killed the Wicked Witch of the East, and for setting our people free from bondage.

Explanation:

As you may already know "Wizard of Oz" tells the story of Dorothy, a girl who lived with her grandparents in Kansas and was hit by a tornado that transported her to the city of Esmeralda, a magical place full of enchanted creatures. Dorothy needs to find the wizard of Oz to get home. During this adventure, she meets many different friends and even manages to defeat the Wicked Witch of the East, who enslaved a very friendly people.

The Wicked Witch of the East was extremely powerful, almost invincible and when Dorothy defeats her, the Witch of the North believes that she is a sorceress for having managed to free the people from something so powerful.

Karl Marx promoted which economic idea?
O A. Market economies will break down because workers will demand
more power
B. Trade between countries is dangerous and should be limited
whenever possible.
C. Businesses should spend their own funds instead of borrowing
from banks.
O D. Governments have no legal right to force any person or business
to pay taxes

Answers

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Karl Marx was against capitalism that favored business, production and trading across the border. He was a believer of communism and hence wanted to restrict the business boundaries. He also said that capitalism promoted materialism due to which our present history is like this. If instead of materialism our history would have been based on ideas then it would have been way different than what it is now.

Hence, option B is correct

Why were the Panama and Suez canals important to the growth of
international industrialization?
A. They encouraged industrialized countries to cut off trade with their
neighbors.
B. They slowed industrialization by diverting resources away from
factories.
C. They enabled poor countries to compete economically with
industrialized countries.
D. They allowed industrial goods to be easily shipped to foreign
markets.
l lol

Answers

The correct answer is D. They allowed industrial goods to be easily shipped to foreign markets.

Explanation

The Panama Canal is an 82km long navigation route that connects the Caribbean Sea with the Pacific Ocean, crossing the entire country of Panama; The Suez Canal is a 163 km long waterway that connects the Mediterranean Sea with the Red Sea. These two waterways are artificial and were built to contribute to international trade because they shortened the distances that had to be traveled. For example, before the construction of the Panama Canal, South America had to be surrounded (it shortened the road between America, Europe, Africa, Asia and Oceania) and in the case of the Suez Canal, the continent of Africa had to be surrounded (it shortened the road between Europe, Africa, Asia and Oceania). The construction of these two roads allowed the growth of international industrialization because they allowed industrial products to be easily shipped to the foreign market. So the correct answer is D.

What course of action might a government take to respond to the downturn revealed in this graph?

reducing the size of its armed forces
laying off unnecessary workers
decrease taxes to increase consumers' money supply
encouraging people to travel overseas

Answers

The correct option is C.  By decreasing taxes to increase consumers' money supply such a course of action might a government taken to respond to the downturn revealed in this graph.

How does decreasing taxes affect the economy?

Tax reductions increase disposable income, enabling consumers to make larger purchases and boosting GNP. By encouraging consumers to spend more of their increased discretionary income on goods and services, tax reductions shift the aggregate demand curve outward.

Taxes are reduced by the government, which raises disposable income. Higher demand and higher production result from this. Therefore, lowering taxes is the recommended fiscal policy in the event of a weak economy and excessive unemployment.
