The founding fathers thought about efficiency in a government in the following way. They believed it was really important to work in a competent way, but that efficiency and order weren't as important as the liberty of people. For this reason, they included systems in the Constitution to limit the power of the government to avoid authoritarianism.

Since they believed that one of the main purposes of the Constitution was to provide and secure general welfare, as well as to create a strong and united nation that preserved individual rights (like the Bill of Rights), they decided to use two systems.

On one hand, "separation of powers". The government's power was divided into three different branches (legislative, executive and judicial).

On the other hand, they added a system of internal checks between the three powers called "Checks and Balances", to prevent and ensure that no branch could dominate over the other.

First of all, efficiency means the ability to being able to do something successfully with no wasting energy or time.

The founding fathers thought that order and effiency were important but they were not as powerful as liberty of the individuals. So even if the Constitution should be ruled by those aspects some blocks were needed to govern and take out aut authoritarianism.

2. Which sentence supports the claim, bedbugs have become one of the most dreaded and expensive pests around?
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Ridding a house of bedbugs can easily cost $5,000.

Explanation:

A supporting claim is any statement or argument that will help enhance or give proof to the claim made. This will ensure the claim made is true and reasonable.

The claim that bedbugs are expensive and dreaded can be best supported by the statement that mentions the cost or expense required to get rid of bed bugs. This will give out the figure or amount required to get the job done.

Thus, the statement that <u><em>"ridding a house of bedbugs can easily cost $5,000"</em></u> is the best supporting claim.

Answer:

The motivation for the purchase being a big accomplishment was Jefferson himself.

The motivation for free access to the Mississippi River, thus allowing merchants to ship and sell American goods all over the world was motivated mainly by economic purposes.

The motivation behind gaining control of the territory thus preventing other countries from threatening the United States was motivated mainly by military purposes.
