What motivated president Jefferson to negotiate the Louisiana purchase

Social Studies
1 answer:
Reptile [31]3 years ago
5 0

During 1803, Napoleon Bonaparte, who was the French ruler at that time, controlled the Louisiana Territory. President Jefferson believed that the French leader may be a threat to American trade and travel, so he decided to negotiate the Louisiana purchase. By doing so, the US would be able to use the Mississippi River and the Port of New Orleans more freely; both ports had been used by farmers to ship their crops and get paid. Jefferson was able to buy the Louisiana territory from France, since Napoleon Bonaparte needed money for the Great French War. As a result, with the purchase of this new territory, the land area of America nearly doubled.

1. If a consumer makes monthly payments of $250 to pay off a car loan, what type of credit is she using? (1 point) non­revolving
aliina [53]
1. If my memory serves me well, if a consumer makes monthly payments of $250 to pay off a car loan, she is using non revolving credit. Non revolving credit is a type of credit which should be paid off with regular monthly payments. The loan is paid off over time which depends on a contract.

2. The main advantage here is purchase power. In her case, credit car is more comfortable way than cash. With credit card she can afford to buy anything she needs without any problems.

3. In my view birthday gifts is the best example of a variable expense category. Variable expenses are the costs that respond to some activity changes, like shipping costs, packaging and so on.

4. The benefit of using a financial tool to track your budget is that it gives you a visual of your income and expenses. It's very important to have a visual of your money as it allows you to learn how to manage your budget.

Why‌ ‌did‌ ‌people‌ ‌in‌ ‌Italy‌ ‌and‌ ‌Germany‌ ‌support‌ ‌rule‌ ‌by‌ ‌dictators?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

The Germans and Italians where humiliated because of the outcome of World War 1, for different reasons. The Germans, was on the loser side of the war. They where forced war reparations, and the give up territory full of Germans to other nations most notably to Poland, along with the lost of its colonies. The Italians where on the winning side with a huge cost of 1,160,000 casualties,  yet they did not receive all the land promised to them by the British.

Needless to say these outcomes, caused huge instability in both countries, politically and economically. The dictators that rose up in these countries promised the return to greatness, an undoing of the past humiliations and their nations triumphing  above all others. The people, who have been through so much,  voted them in and where sucked into there lies and thus the stage for World War 2 was set.

Alex does not like paying taxes, but he is grateful for what taxes do. How might taxes have affected Alex?
Illusion [34]
That's quite a dilemma, he constantly pays taxes which are suddenly included in his daily purchases (groceries, electronics, government taxes regressively deducted from his paycheck). Financial aid and many other institutions are run and financed by taxes collected by the government. Taxes may have taken part of Alex's earnings but maybe he appealed to governmental resources to afford his education.
