In the year 1882, the U.S senate passed the Chinese Exclusion act and was signed by President Chester A. Arthur. During the time period, there was many immigrants, especially Chinese, that immigrated to the United States, which caused a lot of labor. Congress decided to pass this law because a lot of Chinese people were illegally immigrating to the United States and taking away the jobs that the American Citizens wanted. The Act caused the Chinese to be ineligible for naturalization, meaning that they can't become a citizen. Because of the act, the Chinese population in the U.S during that time declined tremendously.

A decrease in the trade-weighted value of the u. S. Dollar will most likely result in which outcome?.
AleksandrR [38]

The most likely impact of a decline in the trade-weighted value of the dollar is that American consumers will have to spend more money to purchase goods from abroad.

The Fed developed the trade-weighted dollar index to evaluate the US dollar's value in relation to trading partners.

Instead than comparing the value of the US dollar against all other currencies, the index prioritizes the currencies that are most commonly used in international trade.

The trade-weighted dollar is used to calculate the purchasing power of the dollar in relation to other currencies and to summarize the consequences of dollar appreciation and depreciation.

The purchasing power of the U.S. dollar is calculated using the trade-weighted dollar, which is also used to analyze the effects of the dollar's appreciation and depreciation versus other currencies. Imports into the United States cost less as the value of the dollar rises, but exports to other nations cost more.

Which group of colonial settlers willingly promised four to seven years of hard work in exchange for the opportunity to move to
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer: Indentured servants

Although it was quite an imperfect system, which was subject to diverse kinds of abuse, indentured servitude was one way by which some early settlers were admitted into America in a bid to address the problem of labor shortages.

Indentured servants (individual or family) would voluntarily offer to serve under a labor contract for a period of two to seven years, or even more, based on many factors in order to join a vessel heading to America since they cannot afford the funds to pay for the voyage.
