pls help! Imagine that you visited Texas in 1870 and in 1900. Write a
letter explaining the positive and negative effects of the
commercial agricultural boom. ( pls do not comment if you have no clue)
Answer:
Modern Texas agriculture evolved from the agriculture of prehistoric Texans and agricultural practices transferred from Europe, Asia, and Africa. Crops native to North America included the food staples corn, beans, and squash, and such diverse vegetables as tomatoes, "Irish" potatoes, chili peppers, yams, peanuts, and pumpkins. Spanish colonists introduced wheat, oats, barley, onions, peas, watermelons, and domestic animals, including cattle, horses, and hogs. Most agriculture before the Civil War involved small, subsistence family farms. The great majority of people were nonslaveholders. Germans established small farms and communities such as New Braunfels, Brenham, and Boerne. Czechs settled heavily in Fayette and Brazos counties. Other settlers streamed in from the South and Midwest and spread across the Blackland Prairies and Cross Timbers of north central Texas by 1860. Advanced cultivation practices, improved plant varieties, the mechanization of agriculture, and the greater availability of capital contributed to both higher yields and increased acreage in cultivation. Bonanza farming and large-scale cattle operations, often funded by foreign investors, developed in Texas in the 1880s. Many of these ventures failed in the depression of the 1890s. New corporate operations developed intermittently after 1900. After the Civil War falling prices, high credit and transportation costs, and after 1893 a national depression, precipitated farm organization and revolt. Although some farmers in the state joined the Grange (the National Grange of the Patrons of Husbandry), first established in 1867 in the Midwest, Texas participation in that group was weak. The Grange sought to impose state regulation on railroad freight rates and grain-elevator charges, to lower credit costs and put more money in circulation, and to reduce tariffs on nonfarm products. Texas farmers began to seek these measures through their own association, the Farmers' Alliance, which originated in Lampasas County in 1872. Under the leadership of Charles W. Macune, the Texas Farmers' Alliance embraced the Grange objectives and stressed the development of farm cooperatives.
The merger of the Texas Farmers' Alliance and the Louisiana Farmers' Union in January 1887 resulted in the creation of the National Farmers' Alliance and Industrial Union of America (better known as the Southern Alliance). This organization grew rapidly throughout the South and into the Midwest. The independent Colored Farmers' Alliance and Cooperative Union was organized in Houston in 1886. These organizations, like the Northern Farmers' Alliance, advocated paper money as legal tender, the unlimited coinage of silver, government control or ownership of railroads and telegraph systems, lower tariffs, a graduated income tax, the Australian or secret ballot, and the direct election of United States senators, as well as expanded public education. The Alliance movement, in turn, led to the organization of a national farmers' political party called the People's party of America or Populist party. Although the party generally failed to achieve its objectives, by the time of its demise after 1896 Populism had began to influence the programs of the major political parties.

Twice the sum of a number and 4 is the same as four times the number decreased by 12. then
the value of a number is
Answer:
10
Explanation:
Let the number be equal to [tex]x[/tex].
We know that twice the sum of this number and 4 is the same as the number decreased by 12. Translate this into an equation:
Twice ⇒ multiply by 2Sum ⇒ add the numbersThe same as ⇒ equal signFour times ⇒ multiply by 4Decreased by ⇒ subtract⇒ [tex]2(x+4)=4x-12[/tex]
Distribute 2 into the parentheses
[tex]2x+8=4x-12[/tex]
Subtract both sides by 8
[tex]2x+8-8=4x-12-8\\2x=4x-20[/tex]
Subtract both sides by 4x
[tex]2x-4x=4x-20-4x\\-2x=-20[/tex]
Divide both sides by -2
[tex]\frac{-2x}{-2} = \frac{-20}{-2} \\x=10[/tex]
Therefore, the value of the number is 10.

Those who could not afford the full price of a Bond could purchase them in incremental amounts by buying $.25 cent stamps at the Post Office and redeeming them for a Bond when the total amount was saved. Children were encouraged to save this way so stamps could also be purchased at school.

The U-Boat, or "under cover boat" was a type of ship used by many navies in World War 1. Merchant ships were rebuilt with light armour, and hidden or disguised medium guns, allowing them to pretend to be unarmed freighters until their targets was within range, at which point they would drop the disguise and attack with the advantage of surprise.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Unfortunately, you forgot to include a question. Here we just have a series of statements, but not a question.
What is your question? What do you want to know?
If this is a true or false question, the correct answer is false.
It is false that the U-Boat, or "undercover boat" was a type of ship used by many navies in World War 1. Merchant ships were rebuilt with light armor, and hidden or disguised medium guns, allowing them to pretend to be unarmed freighters until their targets were within range, at which point they would drop the disguise and attack with the advantage of surprise.
U-Boats were one of the most advanced technologies developed by the German military during World War 1. U-boats were designed specifically to be one of the first kinds of submarines used to capture and destroy cargo ships from the allies that were transporting supplies, weapons, and food to the allied troops.
One of those U-boats was the submarine that sank the Lusitania ship.
What allowed Tulsa to grow wealthy so fast
Answer: Tulsa, in general, began to flourish around the turn of the 20th Century, thanks to a huge oil boom in Oklahoma. ... With the state's oil boom bringing newfound wealth to Tulsa in the early 1900s, Gurley moved to the city and bought the 40-acre plot that he and other Black entrepreneurs named Greenwood.
Not only that, but the details and features that a Tulsa car has to offer has caught the eyes of man buyers. Features like driving without a driver, parking by itself, and having a bed at the back (of course you have to make it yourself.)
