The Battle of Okinawa was a fierce one in which both the Allies and the Japanese Army suffered significative losses. Fearing that the conflict could go on and on, not knowing that the Japanese were ready to surrender and willing to bring a quick end to the war, President Harry S. Truman chooses to drop the atomic bomb against Japan. As we know, the bomb struck Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August 6th and 9th, 1945 and brought Japan to a swift surrender.

The battle of Okinawa affected President Truman's decision to use the atomic bomb against Japan because, on one hand, Japan didn't want to surrender, even though the USA warned them that more destruction would continue after the battle by using the atomic bomb.

On the other hand, Truman knew that more than 2 million Japanese troops were waiting to fight. Therefore, after the Allies agreed, Truman decided to drop an atomic bomb on Japan (Hiroshima and Nagasaki).

How was the bill of rights added to the constitution?
yawa3891 [41]
Many Americans did not like the Constitution because they felt that a strong federal government could take away people's rights. Therefore, most Americans wanted a bill of rights added onto the Constitution. Because the Constitution had already been written and placed into effect, the bill of rights could be added only by making amendments to the Constitution. At this time, the United States Congress made a list of the rights that would be amendments to the Constitution, giving us the Bill of Rights. <span>

2^3x =8 pls Help me find the value of x​
givi [52]

Answer:

x=1

Explanation:

To solve this equation, we have to make sure both sides of the equation has the same base number (2).

8 is 2^3.

we can find this from log(2, 8).

Now combine them into this,

2^{3x} = 2^3

Since now both sides has a base of 2,

we can say that

3x = 3

x =1
