1)The Spinning Jenny was invented to make the spinning of cotton faster during the industrial revolution
2)Wood plows couldn't plow the rich soil of the Middle-West and kept breaking when being used so the steel plow solved this problem
3)The steam engine helped to power the Industrial Revolution. Before steam power, most factories and mills were powered by water, wind, horse, or man. Water was a good source of power, but factories had to be located near a river. Both water and wind power could be unreliable as sometimes rivers could dry up during a drought or freeze during the winter and wind didn't always blow. Steam power allowed for factories to be located anywhere. It also provided reliable power and could be used to power large machines
4)Cotton gin is used to remove the cotton seeds from the cotton
5)Electrical telegraph networks permitted people and commerce to transmit messages across both continents and oceans almost instantly, with widespread social and economic impacts thus becoming the first form of electrical telecommunications.
6)The mccormick reaper is a farm implement or person that reaps (cuts and often also gathers) crops at harvest when they are ripe and made harvesting crops much easier
7)Dynamite is mainly used in the mining, quarrying, construction, and demolition industries and it was a more powerful alternative to black powder.

<span>In one of the first posts on this blog, I compared Lincoln’s two-minute address with the two-hour oration by Edward Everett on the same occasion. Today the former is universally regarded as one of the most famous speeches in American history; the latter is largely forgotten. </span>Indeed, Everett himself recognized the genius of Lincoln’s speech in a note that he sent to the President shortly after the event:
“I should be glad, if I could flatter myself that I came as near to the central idea of the occasion, in two hours, as you did in two minutes.”
In a speech that was comprised of only 10 sentences and 272 words, Lincoln was able to strike a chord that would resonate not only with his audience, but one that would resonate through time. Why is this short speech so memorable?
First, it is important to remember the context. America was in the midst of a bloody civil war. Union troops had only four months earlier defeated Confederate troops at the Battle of Gettysburg which is widely recognized as the turning point in the war. The stated purpose of Lincoln’s speech was to dedicate a plot of land that would become Soldier’s National Cemetery to honour the fallen. However, the Civil War still raged and Lincoln realized that he also had to inspire the people to continue the fight.
<span>Below is the text of the Gettysburg Address, interspersed with my thoughts on what made it so memorable.</span>
Answer: C. Monopolies decreased competition through controlling the prices of goods.
Explanation:
By controlling the price of goods, monopolistic companies did not leave room for competition. In addition to price control, the monopolistic system implies the absence of competition in the market. President Roosevelt has dealt with monopolies in the United States in all economic sectors. In this way, he created a fairer market and gave an equal opportunity for all.
