<em>Correct answer (assuming question was written around 2004 or 2008): </em>

B. In the 2000 presidential election, Florida had 25 electoral votes. Now it has 27 electoral votes because the census determined that the state's population had increased.

In my response, I noted the 2004 or 2008 presidential elections, because in those election cycles Florida had 27 electoral votes, determined by census numbers of the shifting balance of US population. In the 2012 and 2016 presidential elections, Florida had 29 electoral votes, as its population continued to increase relative to other states. That number will remain in place for the 2020 election. After that, the 2020 Census will determine new numbers for the Electoral College once again.

Here's what the National Archives says concerning how Electoral College delegates are assigned: <em>Electoral votes are allocated among the states based on the Census. Every state is allocated a number of votes equal to the number of senators and representatives in its U.S. Congressional delegation—two votes for its senators in the U.S. Senate plus a number of votes equal to the number of its members in the U. S. House of Representatives.</em>

So the number of electoral votes each state gets (of the 538 total electoral votes) is recalculated every ten years, based on the most recent US Census data.

I REALLY NEEP HELP!!! 15 POINTS &amp; BRAINLIEST!!
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

18. Monetary policy in the United States comprises the Federal Reserve's actions and communications to promote maximum employment, stable prices, and moderate long-term interest rates--the economic goals the Congress has instructed the Federal Reserve to pursue.

21. Companies generally decide to outsource the production of goods and services if they think it can save them money and, by doing so, increase company profits. The most frequently cited example of this has to do with labor costs. Companies might outsource and/or offshore to a country that has lower labor costs. Job outsourcing helps U.S. companies be more competitive in the global marketplace. It allows them to sell to foreign markets with overseas branches. They keep labor costs low by hiring in emerging markets with lower standards of living. That lowers prices on the goods they ship back to the United States.

What effect did Napoleon's invasion of Spain have on Latin America?
Anna71 [15]

The correct answer is - B. Latin American leaders demanded independence.

Napoleon with his conquests and waging wars managed to weaken lot of countries. One of those countries was Spain. Spain already seemed to have troubles in its colonies, and when Napoleon attacked it, he managed to significantly weaken it, which sparked the independence movements across Latin America.

The Latin American leaders were carefully monitoring the development of the situation, and once they thought that Spain is no longer strong enough to be able to stop the revolutions, they decided to act. The people were already very frustrated by the Spanish leadership, so the leaders of this region used that momentum and started to make revolutions. One by one, the Latin American countries started to gain independence, some sooner than others, and it really turned out that Spain was not able to oppose all of them.
