Answer:

a) The center for cultural renewal.

c) Where philosophers and scientists gathered and worked.

Explanation:

Alexandria was founded by Alexander the Great in Northern Egypt, on the Mediterranean Coast in 331 BCE. This city became the most important cultural and commercial node of the Mediterranean Sea and the most relevant city of the Hellenistic period, until the rise of the Roman Empire. Alexandria was the main center for the cultural renewal of the Ancient Greek world. The Library of Alexandria was the largest library in the world at that time, philosophers and scientists from diverse regions gathered in that city and worked on different studies in fields like medicine, astronomy, mathematics, literature, art, engineering, among many others. The Pharos of Alexandria was a large lighthouse built to help navigators to arrive at the port of Alexandria, but it was also a symbol of the light of wisdom and knowledge that Alexandria represented for the ancient world.

3. Is the minimum wage good or bad for the lowest-paid workers? Explain your reasoning.
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer: This is quite a complicated question and therefore requires quite a complicated and extensive answer.  While it may seem like a minimum wage is good for the lowest-paid workers it isn't very good for an economy and workers as a whole.  The reason for this being is that having a minimum wage and subsequently raising it (as is being done throughout the United States) boosts inflation meaning the price for products rises, (essentially negating all benefits that the workers received from a higher minimum wage.)  Now while the lowest class workers don't really receive any benefit from this as their wage goes up but the products they produce also go up in price as well, but the average middle class consumer gets hit hard by this as their product prices raise but they still have the same wage.  Another downside to having a minimum wage and having it consistently rising is that companies are forced to cut employees or not hire any more people all together.  This is why jobless claims rise after wages rise.  Companies cannot afford to pay workers a higher minimum wage and keep all their workers at the same time otherwise they would go in the red.  This forces them to make cuts in staffing.  Minimum wage would mandate that even if a potential worker and company agree on a price to pay for their work, the law would mandate that this would not be a possibility essentially making work harder to find.  Minimum wage should not even really be needed as companies and workers should be able to find a good and fair price for work on their own without the governments help.  If a worker doesn't like the wage they are receiving then they can quite and find a better paying job.  This also boosts competition among businesses as they are all fighting for workers to fill their jobs and would also raise the wage, but in a natural process without all the detriments that artificially raising the minimum wage brings.  Companies should be allowed to hire workers at whatever pay per hour they so what as long as it is agreed to as well by the worker.  This means that more jobs are open to a more wide variety of people and that also means that if people want to work for less they can still be open to that opportunity as well.

Explain how the U.S.'s foreign policy from 1870-1910 became more imperialistic. Use TWO examples of U.S. actions including U.S.
aliya0001 [1]
By the 1890's Americans were sick and tired of their 1870 and prior image of being just backwoods farmers staying at home from the world. Americans in the 1890's were conscious of the great power of American industry, wealth, inventions, natural resources and wanted to take their place among the great powers of the world. They were aware of all the great progress America had made in every field. 

<span>A new political movement the progressives wanted even more progress and aimed at the future to make America 'great'. This was the motivation for the new foreign policy. Examples: kicking Spain out and taking Cuba,(1898), buying Panama and building the American Panama Canal there (1904). President Theodore Roosevelt building the 1st mighty US Navy (1901-1909).</span>

Why did King George III strictly enforce the Navigation Acts?
Nuetrik [128]
The correct answer is <span>Britain wanted the colonies to pay for part of the cost of the French and Indian War.

While the war was on, Britain kept sending troops which had to be taken care off in the new world and it was up to the colonists to provide for them. This is why salutary neglect stopped happening and Britain started asking for more money and being more strict.</span>
