Answer:

equal

Explanation:

The case of Plessy v. Ferguson was a case that was heard by the US Supreme Court in 1896 in which a black person violated the Louisiana's Separate Car Act of 1890 and he argued that this law was unconstitutional. However, in the decision the US Supreme Court ruled that Louisiana law was not unconstitutional because although the Fourteenth Amendment referred to the equality of white and black people, it didn't eliminate the distinctions based on color. So, according to this, in the case of Plessy v. Ferguson, the Supreme Court focused its decision on the interpretation of the word equal.

Finger [1]

Answer:

(Hope this helps can I pls have brainlist (crown)☺️)

Explanation:

The French and Indian War lasted from 1754 until 1763, when the Treaty of Paris was signed. Great Britain gained considerable territory in North America as a result of the war, but disagreements over following frontier policies and how to pay for the war's costs led to colonial unrest and, ultimately, the American Revolution.

The French and Indian War changed the relationship between Britain and its American colonies because it allowed Britain to become more "active" in colonial political and economic affairs by imposing regulations and levying taxes unfairly on the colonies, causing colonists' attitudes toward Britain to shift from tolerance to resentment.
