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 did the events of the Tennis Court Oath increase the prestige of the Third Estate? By showing that the people could overpowe
fredd [130]

The correct answer is: " By showing that the people could overpower the monarch".

The events of the Tennis Court Oath meant the start of the French Revolution in 1789. The members of the Third Estate, had left the Estates General, the assembly organized by the king which gathered the three Estates of the Realm (the three social classes in which the reign was divided) . They considered they had no voice there, as their Estate represented the majority of the population and its decisions could always be overturned by the ones of the other two privileged estates, as each estate had one vote.

The Third Estate founded the National Assembly instead and they took the Tennis Court Oath through which they agreed "not to separate, and to reassemble wherever circumstances require" until a constitution had been drafed. These events preceeded the derrocation and execution of King Louis XVI, the abolition of feudalism and absolute monarchies in France, and subsequently in the whole Europe, and the enactment of the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen, the first declaration of civil rights in the world.
