Answer: The government gave them to railroad companies for development.

Explanation:

The United States government used part of the public domain land to aid and support the construction of railroads.

Private banks were hesitant to grant money to railroad companies because they would probably take lots of time to pay it off. That´s why Congress granted land to the railroad companies. Four out of the five transcontinental railroads were created with aid from the federal government. This contributed to a faster settlement of the West.

Question 3 of 10
Over [174]

Answer:

English woman's property when she married came under the control of her husband.

Explanation:

According to married women property act, the property which was owned by women in the form of gift, investment or inheritance is naturally transferred to her husband. The law considers both legal and husband and wife to be a single entity and the husband absorbs her property.

After marriage, an English wife had all authority to own the property but she cannot control or manage it. For example, if she holds a land, she can possess the legal ownership but she cannot rent it or mortgage it or sell it.  

This act was later altered and affirmed that the wages earned by women should be treated as a separate property.
