Answer 1

Answer:

B) an increased need to decent the frontier, where french colonist and their tribal allies remained strong.

Explanation:

As a consequence of the French Indian War, Britain had to increase military patrols and the line of defenses along a new, longer frontier. This increased the costs for the colonial administration in America, beside the large debts the English crown had to take to finance the war. The measure taken was to increase taxes, a policy that caused resentment and disatisfaction among colonists.
