Correct answer: Colombia had raised the price for the rights to build the Panama Canal.

Details:

As reported by the Office of the Historian of the United States:  "President Theodore Roosevelt oversaw the realization of a long-term United States goal—a trans-isthmian canal" across the Isthmus of Panama.  With Teddy Roosevelt in the White House, in 1902 the US Senate approved the building of a canal through Panama.  Roosevelt's Secretary of State then went to work to arrange a treaty with Colombia (then in control of the Panama region).  When Colombia ended up rejecting the US's offer because they thought the financial offer too low, President Roosevelt sent US naval warships to support the cause of Panama's independence from Colombia.  After Panama achieved independence (with US support) in 1903, the new country, the Republic of Panama, agreed to treaty terms with the US for the building of the canal.  The Panama Canal was completed in 1914.

Answer:

No

Explanation:

it hasn't been 1 decade between 1822-1976 because a decade is only 10 years so you would subtract 1976-1822 which equals 154 then if u divide that by 10 you get 15.4 so if you round it you would basically get 15 decades. Hope this helped! :)

V125BC [204]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

According to my research, "Before a bill can become a law, it must be approved by the U.S. House of Representatives, the U.S. Senate, and the President." of those answers provided, A is the only one that fits. If you're still having trouble, I'd suggest looking at the How A Bill Becomes a Law song by Schoolhouse Rock, which is pretty catchy, and explains how a bill becomes a law pretty well. Good Luck!
