The answer is A: a guide that ensures that people produce the things that society needs.

The theory behind Smith´s “invisible hand” is that offer and demand (what is produced and what is needed, in rough terms) are correlated in as much as self-interest (what one can produce for one´s own benefits) is channeled towards the needs that a given social group may experience at a given moment. This is indeed the justification for any form of <em>laissez-faire </em>economic system which dictates that commerce (transactions between private parties) should not be interrupted by governmental intervention since offer and demand balance each other "naturally".

What law designated how slaves were to be counted for representation and taxation
hoa [83]
The 3/5ths compromise was the law that designated how slaves were to be treated and represented. Previously an African American was counted as only 3/5ths of a person, hence the name of the compromise.

During the 1920 presidential election, Warren Harding made the idea of the "return to normalcy" central to his campaign. This id
Nuetrik [128]

The Harding's campaign promises of a return to "normalcy," supported the adoption of an isolationist policy and a series of measure that would return America to the way it was before the war; this idea appealed to voters who were affected by the tension and fighting during WW I and all the damages it had caused, and to those who wanted  to return to the way of life before World War I, adopt an isolationist policy rather than getting involved in international treaties or organizations (such as the League of Nations) and to focus on domestic issues.

Can you state 3 conclusions about Spanish exploration and settlement north of Mexico and the Spaniards interaction with Native A
Naddika [18.5K]

One conclusion would be that the main goal of the Spanish in almost all cases was to find and bring back gold, another would be that the natives were demolished, and another would be that steel was their most valuable weapon. 


Explanation:

Some Native Americans regenerate to Christianity however others did not.

Early Spanish explorers fail to search out a lot of gold north of United Mexican States, therefore, a settlement was restricted to far off missions and defensive outpost.

Spanish missionaries gave native Americans with smart materials, education, and protection however generally abused them.
