There are times when democracy does not meet the
expectations of the people. Sadly there
are times when it fails the people who believe in it. This is when corrupt officials abuse their
position in government and implement policies that limit democracy and the
rights of the people. When services intended for the people are not available
that is another example. The worst
instance is when there is no justice in the system as the guilty goes free and
the innocent gets blamed.
1) <span>The Equator is located (defined) as being at zero degrees north latitude.
The North Pole is located at 90 degrees north latitude.
Therefore, half of the distance from the equator to the north pole would be the line of latitude at 45 degrees north.
This would be quite close to the latitude of Montreal, Quebec, Canada at 45 degrees 30 minutes north latitude.
2) </span><span>The Prime Meridian is defined as being zero degrees west (or east) longitude. </span>
<span>80 degrees west longitude would be quite close to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania which is located at 79 degrees 57 minutes west of Greenwich, England. </span>
<span>The halfway line of longitude would be 40 degrees west longitude. </span>
<span>The city of Rio De Janeiro, Brazil is located approximately 43 degrees west longitude. </span>
Answer:

Explanation:
Marbury v. Madison was a court case that resided with William Marbury being appointed by John Adams, but during the process of his commission, Thomas Jefferson became president, and he and Secretary of State James Madison, added new courts and new judges. William Marbury's commission was not delivered to him, therefore petitioning to the Supreme Court for a writ of mandamus compelling the delivery of his commission.
The Court found Madison's refusal to deliver commissions was illegal but did not grant Marbury a writ of mandamus. Instead, the court held that Marbury did not have the right, under the Judiciary Act of 1789, to claim to the Supreme Court that Madison's act was unconstitutional.
The court knew that a writ of mandamus would be the proper way to fix the situation, but concluded that the court couldn't issue it. Therefore making it clear that Congress did not have the power to modify the Constitution through regular legislation.
Doing this, the Supreme Court established the principle in judicial review and expanded the powers by having the power to declare a law unconstitutional.
Hope that helps your question.
