The correct answer to this open question is the following.

It was important to the Spanish colonists that their slaves didn't know the terrain of the land because that way the slaves were less likely to escape.

That made sense since the Spaniard's perspective that had invested in buying the slaves to exploited them. For them, slaves were not people, they were the labor force, a product, an investment, and by no means, the Spanish were willing to lose the slaves. So in not knowing the terrain, slaves were less likely to escape, avoiding the risk of getting lost in the jungles of an unknown land.

What did Zebulon Pike search for in his explorations?
suter [353]

The answer is that Zebulon Pike, the U.S. Army officer who in 1805 led an exploring party in search of the source of the Mississippi River, sets off with a new expedition to explore the American Southwest. Pike was instructed to seek out headwaters of the Arkansas and Red rivers and to investigate Spanish settlements in New Mexico. Pike and his men left Missouri and passed through the present day states of Kansas and Nebraska before reaching Colorado, where he spotted the famous mountains later named in his honor. From there, they traveled down to New Mexico, where they were stopped by Spanish officials and charged with illegal entry into Spanish- held territory. His party was escorted to Santa Fe, then down to Chihuahua, back up through Texas, and finally to the border of the Louisiana Territory, where they were released. Soon after returning to the east, Pike was implicated in a plot with former Vice President Aaron Burr to seize territory in the Southwest for mysterious ends. However, after an investigation, Secretary of State James Madison fully exonerated him. The information he provided about the U.S. territory in Kansas and Colorado was a great impetus for future U.S. settlement, and his reports about the weakness of Spanish authority in the Southwest stirred talk of the future U.S. annexation.

How did labor and land ownership change after the civil war?
dolphi86 [110]
After the civil war, much of the ownership for land was unattainable for free slaves due to the government opposing the idea. Instead most African slaves had to become sharecroppers on plantations where they had previously been slaves.

uestion 2. Using a simulation with 10,000 trials, assign num_different to the number of times, in 10,000 trials, that two words
Olegator [25]

Answer:

This simulation will be done using Python programming language

# Program is written in Python

# Comments are used for explanatory purpose

# Program starts here

stringtocheck = open('PrideAndPrejudice.txt', encoding='utf-8').

read()

#Split words

splitwords = np.array(string.split())

In []:

# Initialise trial simulation to 10000 in test variable

test = 10000

# Initialise diff to 0

diff = 0

# iterate for possible words in PrideAndPrejudice

for i in np.arange(test):

# search for 2 words

words = np.random.choice(splitwords, 2)

#implement the condition in hint above

iflen(words.item(0)) != len(words.item(1)) != len(words.item(2)) != len(words.item(0)):

#calcuate result

diff = diff + 1

num_different = diff/test
