Answer: Memmott explains that the tragedy is not well known today and then shows why it is worth remembering.
Explanation: In the passage A, we can see a brief introduction to the subject by informing about a commemoration called "Border of Lights" in Dominican Republic, and it also explains that this commemoration is about a tragedy that was forgotten for a long time, and that many people don't know about. To complement the first paragraph, passage B describes what was the tragedy that occurred in Dominican Republic, where many Haitian were killed just for being Haitians, in this way he emphasizes in why this tragedy needs to be remember.
The answer is true.
Because without mood or tone a story would just sound like "Jim walked his dog. He walked it down the street." But with tone and mood the story sounds like "Jim walked Robert, Robert was his dog and they loved going on walks together. They walk down the street and around the corner."
Slope is given by m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1); where (x1, y1) = (6, 2) and (x2, y2) = (7, 4)
slope = (4 - 2)/(7 - 6) = 2/1 = 2
Answer: Popular Sovereignty
Explanation:
Prior to the Kansas-Nebraska Act, the slave status of a new territory would be decided by the Missouri Compromise which based the state's slave status on geographical location as it prohibited slavery in states to the North of the 36°30′ parallel (excluding Missouri).
In 1854 however, a bill that would later be known as the Kansas-Nebraska Act was introduced to Congress by Sen. Stephen A. Douglas who hoped to gain support from Southern politicians for a state to be established on land gained from the Louisiana purchase.
The bill called for the status of a state to be decided by Popular Sovereignty which essentially meant that the people of the state would decide whether or not they wanted to be a free state instead of Congress as had previously been the case.
With this act therefore, the new territories would decide their status by themselves.
