many delegates of the convention wanted to create a new constitution. What was the three-fifths compromise?
beks73 [17]

The Three-Fifths Compromise was a compromise reached among state delegates during the 1787 United States Constitutional Convention. Whether, and if so, how, slaves would be counted when determining a state's total population for legislative representation and taxing purposes was important, as this population number would then be used to determine the number of seats that the state would have in the United States House of Representatives for the next ten years. The compromise solution was to count three out of every five slaves as a person for this purpose. Its effect was to give the southern states a third more seats in Congress and a third more electoral votes than if slaves had been ignored, but fewer than if slaves and free people had been counted equally, thus allowing the slaveholder interests to largely dominate the government of the United States until 1861. The compromise was proposed by delegates James Wilson and Roger Sherman.

Write some rules that people should follow in the public places​
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

1. If you're walking somewhere, walk on the RIGHT side, NOT the left (If you're American :) If you're not American and it's normal for you to drive on the left side, then please also walk on the left side)

2. Don't chuck your trash at the tree. If you have trash, put it in a trashcan. If you see trash, put it in a trashcan.

3. If you're going to use profanity, do it quietly, please. It makes the rest of us uncomfortable.

4. When wearing earbuds or headphones, make sure that other peeps can't hear it.

5. SUPER SIMPLE but SOME brains can't get this: just be overall respectful to others. You don't know them or their situation, so leave them be.

6. Last one and it's small. Hold open doors for people right behind you. Don't pull a sneaky ninja right before the door closes and make the other person open the door.
