N 1880, San Fransisco enacted an ordinance that required all laundry businesses had to be in buildings that were made of stone or brick. If they wanted to have a laundry that was in a wooden building, they needed to get permission from the board of supervisors. Due to challenges in other employment areas, Chinese immigrants often worked in or owned laundromats. In fact, 89% of San Fransisco's laundry businesses were operated by workers of Chinese descent.

The board of supervisors began granting whites permission to have laundry businesses in wooden buildings but didn't grant permission to Chinese immigrants. Those that violated this ordinance had to pay a fine. Yick Wo was an operator for 22 years in San Fransisco. He did not have a permit and refused to pay the fine. Wo was arrested and convicted. He then appealed his conviction, saying that the law was discriminating against him because of his race. The court ruled that he was still protected under the 14th Amendment and dismissed all charges. Looking at the background for this case and the ruling, the best answer choice would be that the court ruled that Chinese Americans were able to operate laundry facilities, just as native-born citizens could.

How has Latin influence the world today? Choose four correct answers.
ddd [48]

Answer:

The most important influence of the Latin language is that many words, especially in technical and scientific fields, come from Latin.

Explanation:

For example, the world Agriculture from the Latin <em>agricultura</em>, which is at the same time a composed word: form <em>ager</em>, meaning field, and <em>culture, </em>meaning cultivation.

Like this, we have many other examples, because Latin was for thousands of years, the lingua franca of Europe, much like English is the lingua franca of the world today. Scholars, scientists, students, monks, and so on, often wrote in Latin, instead of their native languages.
