2. The Declaration of Independence says, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal." The American

philosopher Isaiah Berlin said that "every man to count for one and no one to count for more than one". appears, more than any other formula, to constitute the irreducible minimum of the ideal of equality."* Do you agree or disagree with this idea? Explain your position. 93k

Based on the Declaration of Independence and on the words of Isaiah Berlin, I can say that I agree that both statements “constitute the irreducible minimum of the ideal of equality”. On the first statement from the Declaration of Independence, we can see that when it says “all men are created equal” it is including minorities groups that are usually discriminated against due to race, gender or nationality. Basically, it states that all people are equal and should not be discriminated on the basis of race, gender or nationality.  

On the second statement by philosopher Berlin, the focus is not only on the fact that one man should count as one but also it highlights that no men should be counted as more than one. Here, Berlin wants to indicate that of you are rich and powerful; you are still only one person and cannot be thought of as more worthy than the rest.

To sum up both concepts mention that all men are created equal, the first one focusing on no discrimination against minority groups; and the second one focusing on no power abuse.

Solve for b<br><br><br> 5/b = 45/36
nydimaria [60]
Hey there!

5/b = 45/36
First you have to CROSS MULTIPLY
Like: 5 • 36 = 45 • b

5 • 36 = 180
45 • b = 45b

New equation; 180 = 45b

Turn your equation around

45b = 180

DIVIDE both of your sides by 45

45b / 45 = 180 / 45
Cancel out: 45 / 45 because that gives you 1
Keep; 180 / 45 because that helps us solve for our equation (or the value of your “b”)

New equation: 180 / 45 = b
Solve above and you have the result of b

180 / 45 = 4

Therefore the answer of b is : 4

b = 4 ☑️

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

What was the significance of dc. vs heller, marburg vs madison, miranda vs arizona
Talja [164]

Answer:

Miranda vs Arizona: Miranda rights were added to the 5th amendment, which is the constitutional requirement for any law enforcement to read your Miranda rights to you. "You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you."

DC vs Heller: Landmark decision of the US Supreme Court ruling that the Second Amendment protects an individual's right to keep and bear arms, unconnected with service in a militia, for traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense within the home, and that the District of Columbia's handgun ban and requirement that lawfully owned rifles and shotguns be kept "unloaded and disassembled or bound by a trigger lock" violated this guarantee.

Marbury vs Madison: Established the principle of judicial review in the United States, meaning that American courts have the power to strike down laws, statutes, and some government actions that they find to violate the Constitution of the United States.
