Answer:

Explanation:

"No taxation without representation!" was the cry. The colonists were not merely griping about the Sugar Act and the Stamp Act. They intended to place actions behind their words. One thing was clear — no colony acting alone could effectively convey a message to the king and Parliament. The appeals to Parliament by the individual legislatures had been ignored. It was James Otis who suggested an intercolonial conference to agree on a united course of action. With that, the STAMP ACT CONGRESS convened in New York in October 1765.

The Congress seemed at first to be an abject failure. In the first place, only nine of the colonies sent delegates. Georgia, North Carolina, New Hampshire, and the all-important Virginia were not present. The Congress became quickly divided between radicals and moderates. The moderates would hold sway at this time. Only an extreme few believed in stronger measures against Britain than articulating the principle of no taxation without representation. This became the spirit of the STAMP ACT RESOLVES. The Congress humbly acknowledged Parliament's right to make laws in the colonies. Only the issue of taxation was disputed.

Colonial and personal differences already began to surface. A representative from New Jersey stormed out during the proceedings. The president of the Congress, TIMOTHY RUGGLES of Massachusetts, refused to sign the Stamp Act Resolves. In the end, however, the spirit of the Congress prevailed. Every colonial legislature except one approved the Stamp Act Resolves.

Sharon wanted to determine if the juvenile boot camp program her county had initiated had a noticeable impact on recidivism. She
vazorg [7]

The correct answer is A. The independent variable

Explanation:

In this experiment, the boot camp is the factor Sharon considers can influence recidivism (the main variable studied or dependent variable). In this context, the boot camp is the independent variable because this is the factor that is considered a "special treatment" in the experiment because only some were in the boot camp program. Also, in experiments the independent variable influences another variable and this is independent because it is not affected by other variables. This occurs with the boot camps because boot camps influence recidivism but not the opposite.
