The 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments, also collectively known as the Civil War Amendments were designed to ensure equality for recently emancipated slaves. The 13th Amendment banned slavery and all involuntary servitude, except in the case of punishment for a crime.
The 14th Amendment guaranteed African Americans citizenship rights and promised that the federal government would enforce equal protection of the laws.
The 15th Amendment stated that no one could be denied the right to vote based on race, color or previous condition of servitude.
Francis Lubbock (1815 – 1905) was the governor of Texas between 1861 and 1863, and therefore he was in office during the Civil War (1861-1865).
During his ruling, he promoted the conscription (draft) so that every non-disabled men joined the Confederate States Army. He appointed how slaves should replace working white men so that they could join the army. He even made the aliens who lived in Texas subjects of the draft. In general, he worked hard to ensure the mility abilities of Texas.
He rejected reelection in 1863 in order to join the Confederate Army himself. In 1864 Lubbock was named assistant of Jefferson Davis and traveled to Richmond. He had a close relationship with Jefferson Davis, the only President of the Confederate States from 1861 to 1865. Both would be captured together by the Union authorities.
Answer:
5. 106°
6. 16.6°
Explanation:
5. 53 plus 53 equals 106
the exterior angle equals 106 degrees
6. 8x+5 = 40 + 5x + 15
8x+5= 55+5x
subtract 5 from both sides
8x=50+5x
subtract 5x from both sides to try to isolate x to one side
3x=50
divide 3 from both sides
x= 16.6
The answer is A, natural selection.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
According to Descartes, the responsible for finding out the truth was oneself and the mind when it states "I think therefore I am." French philosopher, Rene Descartes's approach to the truth had to first, express doubt.
Those responsible for finding the truth were supposed to complete this task by doubting first, questioning their own existence. Then, through the mind, the reason, confirm their existence because they had the capacity to think.
I think the truth cannot be found in one religion, such as Christianity, Catholicism, or many others, because those are dogmas developed by people through different eras. The truth depends on the perspective of every individual. There is no single truth in life that apply to all the people around the world. Diversity is the name of the game, and that is the reason why many religions exist to satisfy people's spiritual necessities. If we do not respect other people´s teachings, truths, and necessities, that is when problems arise.
