Congress wanted to punish the South, but Lincoln wanted to make the reconciliation as easy as possible.
The quote “... any Indian who received news of the Spaniards could have also easily received the infection” refers to the fact that when the Spanish explorers advanced into Central America, the diseases they were carrying often spread faster than them, including ahead of them.
The context is the so-called Columbian Exchange (after Christopher Columbus), which is the large exchange of animals, food, culture, people, techniques, and diseases that took place between Native Americans (or Indians) and Europeans after 1492.
The quote focuses on one particular aspect of this exchange: the spread of infections. While the Indians did contaminate the Europeans with some of their diseases, like syphilis, many infections destroyed Native American lives because they had not developed a resistance to them like Europeans did. These included measles and smallpox, which were introduced in America through the Caribbean in the early 16th century.

Bhakti (Sanskrit: भक्ति) literally means "attachment, participation, fondness for, homage, faith, love, devotion, worship, purity". It was originally used in Hinduism, referring to devotion and love for a personal God or a representational God by a devotee. In ancient texts such as the Shvetashvatara Upanishad, the term simply means participation, devotion and love for any endeavor, while in the Bhagavad Gita, it connotes one of the possible paths of spirituality and towards moksha, as in bhakti marga.

Hi, thank you for posting your question here at Brainly.
All you have to do is add all the angles and equate to the total sum of angles for a quadrilateral.
360 = Angle Q + Angle P + Angle R + Angle S
Other relationships/equations are:
Q = 2P
R = 3b-19
S = 3b+10
Then, substituting...
360 = 2P + P + 3b - 19 + 3b + 10
360 = 3P +6b - 9
360 - 3P + 9 = 6b
6b = 369 - 3P
b = (369 - 3P)/6
b = 61.5 - 0.5P
Once you know the value of P, then you can determine the exact value of b.
