HUAC refers to " <span>House Un-american Activities Committee".

In the 1940's and the 1950's, this committee was set to find people who worked as spies for the Russians. This was a difficult task and a difficult time because back in World War II, Russia was an ally to the states, however, at the time, it became an enemy.

Russia stated that the land of Communist a peaceful place where all people lived in harmony. This sounded so beautiful as it was what the Americans dreamed of. The Americans were taken with these statements and never considered the possibility that the Russians were hurting America and the Americans were taking part in this by agreeing to their policy. </span><span>They thought that they were advancing a Utopian world. 

</span><span>However, history showed them that they were wrong as this committee held hearings. 

Later on, Richard Nixon used his frame from this committee to become president.

What is the graph 4=y2
Art [367]

Answer:

<u></u>

  • <u>Number line with marks on y = 2 and y = -2. See the first graph attached.</u>

Explanation:

  • 4 = y² is an equation that yields two values of y.

Then, its graph consists of two points on the number line;

         4=y^2\\\\y^2=4\\\\y=\pm\sqrt{4} \\\\y=\pm2\\\\y_1=2\\\\y_2=-2

That is, the graph istwo points that show the solutions, one point on the mark y = 2 and the other on the mark y = -2.

This is a one dimensional graph: just two points on the number line.

See the first graph attahed.

I will also talk you about the function 4x = y², just in case the question is mssing the variable x.

The graph of 4x = y² is a horizontal parabola, i.e. it symmetry axis is parallel to the x-axis.

The standard form of the equation of a horizontal  parabola is:

          (y-k)^2=4p(x-h)

With p ≠ 0.

The point with coordinates (h,k) is the vertex.

The point with coordinates (h + p, k) is the focus.

The line x = h - p is the directrix.

The axis of symmetry is the line y = k.

Positive values of p (p > 0) means the parabola opens to the right, and negative values of p (p < 0), means the parabola opens to the left.

4x = y² means:

  • h = 0, k = 0, 4p = 4 ⇒ p = 1.

Then:

  • vertex (0,0)
  • focus (0,0)
  • directrix: line x  = 0 - 1 = - 1
  • axis of symmetry: line y = 0
  • it opens to the right.

With that, you can understand the second graph attached.

4 How has tmerica changed over time in
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

America has changed over time in many different ways. For example, America has become more multicultural. Although America always had people of different nations, the trend is even more significant now, as people from almost every nation of the world live in America. We have also become more accepting of this, with laws that outlaw segregation and discrimination.

America's treatment of Native American people has also changed over time. During the early years of the country, Native Americans suffered greatly from loss of land, death, discrimination and poverty. In recent years, the government has tried to solve many of these problems by giving Native Americans citizenship, as well as more autonomy.

However, these problems are far from being solved. America still has a long way to go before Native Americans achieve full equality. Native Americans would benefit from better education. They also need more autonomy over their resources, and for their cultural legacy to be more protected.
