In the space provided, explain what you think happened to the lost colonists. Use everything you have learned in this investigat
Korvikt [17]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

I think that what happened to the lost colonists was the following.

First, I have to say that we are talking about the lost colony of Roanoke, North Carolina, in colonial American times.

In 1587, the first group of English explorers or settlers arrived in the North American territory. More specifically, at the Island of Roanoke, modern-day North Carolina. Those 115 English colonists named John White as their governor. There, White had to return to England to get more food and supplies. The thing was that he couldn't immediately get back to Roanoke because the British war against Spain demanded the use of all the ships.

Three years later, in 1590, White finally returned to Roanoke but sadly, nobody was there. They literally "disappeared." That is still a mystery today.

I think the colonists tried to survive the harsh environment and different climate conditions and had to move to find food. They could intermingle with some Native American Indians: Some friendly, that accepted to help them. Some not, and probably they killed the colonists.

How do you figure out what a lectures main idea is? How will figuring out the main idea help you when taking notes?
Zolol [24]

Answer:

The main idea of any type of text (spoken or verbal), including a lecture, is the main, most important point the writer/speaker is making. In one text, there can be multiple main ideas. You can easily recognize the main ideas of a lecture by looking at its title and subtitles. For example, if you are listening to a lecture about the central nervous system, the main points could be the central nervous system itself and its most important parts, which will be represented by titles and subtitles.

When you're taking notes, you should write down the most important things the lecturer is saying. This includes the things that are closely related to the main ideas, such as definitions and explanations. If you are unable to write everything down (which is usually the case), you should focus on these main points and ignore the details, because it's more likely that you won't need them.

icang [17]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Judge Fujita is sentencing a defendant who is convicted of a felony crime that carries a mandatory sentence of four years in prison. Judge Fujita sentences the defendant to a one-year sentence instead. The judge had the option to modify the sentence under the presumptive sentence.

The presumptive sentence serves as a guideline to the judge when sentencing. It is when the judge decides the appropriate sentence to a specific crime. The presumptive sentence contains the number of years in jail and the kind of fines the judge can dictate. To do this, the judge takes into consideration other factors such as the criminal record of the defendant and the aggravating factors.
