Answer:

A. Many minorities were unable to vote due to the poll tax.

Explanation:

The fifteenth amendment of US constitution protects the citizens right to vote, regardless of their race or the color of skin. After the civil war US constitution was amended, the thirteen amendment abolished the slavery and the fifteenth amendment gave the slaves rights of US citizens. But the states still tried to discriminate with the former slaves through poll taxes, literacy tests, white primary system and intimidation. The poll tax worked by charging the slaves with a poll tax while white people were exempted due to grandfather clause.

The new jersey plan proposed to keep a unicameral legislature with equal representation for each state.
jonny [76]
The answer is True.

When creating the legislative branch, representation was an issue that was argued over constantly. The small states, like New Jersey, wanted all states to have the same representation regardless of their states population. However, big states like Virginia wanted states with more population to have more power. These two sides come to a compromise (called the Connecticut Compromise) which states that the amount of representatives in the House will be based on population while every state will have 2 senators in the Senate.

Think of some of the options you have for spending time after school sports practice hobby clubs work or extra study for example
nirvana33 [79]

Let us choose Extra study. Knowing that opportunity cost is related to the opportunities lost by choosing one specific course of events than others. By choosing an extra study and spend hours studying something, my opportunity cost will be the school sports practice hours that could be spent in this time. Another opportunity cost would be the social interaction, in a club, for example, lost because of the extra study decision.
