Correct answer: B. Overcrowded and unsanitary tenements

Details:

Jacob Riis was a police reporter in New York. In 1888, Riis took pictures of what life was like in city's slums. Using his own photos as well as photos gathered from other photographers, Riis began to give lectures titled, "The Other Half: How It Lives and Dies in New York," in which he would show the pictures on a projection screen and describe for viewers what the situations were like. He gave his lectures in New York City churches. In 1989, a magazine article by Riis (based on his lectures) was published in Scribner's Magazine. The book version was then published in 1890 as How the Other Half Lives: Studies among the Tenements of New York.

Riis blamed the poor living conditions on greed and neglect from society's wealthier classes, and called on society to remedy the situation as a moral obligation.

Which of these is an example of an implied power of Congress? a) signing a peace treaty b) proposing an amendment to the Constit

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

C) regulating internet usage

Explanation:

Implied power is a form of power in which it is believed to be in the jurisdiction of the United States Congress to perform but the United States Constitution does not explicitly or outright stated.

The Article 1 to 5 of the United States Constitution explicitly states the power of the US Congress and it includes: signing a peace treaty, proposing an amendment to the Constitution, coining a new twenty-five cent coin.

However, the power of the congress to "regulating internet usage, " is not outrightly stated in the Constitution, hence it is a good example of Implied power because it is relatively be inferred to align with express powers, though not outrightly stated.
