History

Fantom [35]4 years ago

More than 350,000 women enlisted during the war, mostly in the Women's Army Corps (WAC) and the nursing corps. 

<span>Some women were able to get better paid jobs than they had before the war. The women who went to work in the defense industry were mainly women who before the war were in poorly paid jobs. Peggy Terry, who got a job with her mother and sister at a shell-loading plant in kentucky, was euphoric "We made the fabulous sum of thirty-two dollars a week" she said. "To us it was an absolute miracle. Before the war we made nothing." As a result of the great migration of women to defense jobs, 600 laundries went out of business in 1942, and in Detroit, a third of the restaurants closed because of the lack of help. </span>

Its math I mistakenly put history
worty [1.4K]

From the graph, the coordinates of point A in terms x and y = <u>(6, 5).</u>

The equation of line L in the form y = mx+c is y = 4x - 2

<h3>What is the general equation of any straight-line graph?</h3>

The general equation for any straight-line graph takes the form y = mx +c.

Where;

  • m = gradient of the line
  • c = y- intercept
  • x & y = coordinate of the line.

From the graph, the coordinates of point A in terms x and y = <u>(6, 5)</u>

The equation of the line L in the form y = mx+c is:

  • The gradient m = -4
  • The y-intercept = 2

y = mx + c

y = -4x + 2

The equation of line L in the form y = mx+c is y = 4x - 2

If points were plotted for the equation x= 3, then:

y = 4(3) - 2

y = 12 - 2

y = 10

Therefore, if points were plotted for the equation x = 3, they will produce a sloping line.

How did the war in Korea influence the United States to support a conflict in Vietnam?
lisabon 2012 [21]
After fighting the war in Korea, the US had learned that communism would spread. In order to keep with their policy of containment, they had to rush in and stop Viet Cong from spreading communism (much like the domino theory that the US had). Had Viet Cong not wanted to bring about communism, there would be no need for invasion, and the domino theory would have yet to be proven.
