WITCHER [35]3 years ago

<span>The Committees of Correspondence were the American colonies’ means for maintaining communication lines in the years before the Revolutionary War. In 1764, Boston formed the earliest Committee of Correspondence to encourage opposition to Britain’s stiffening of customs enforcement and prohibition of American paper money. The following year, New York formed a similar committee to keep the other colonies notified of its actions in resisting the Stamp Act. In 1773, the Virginia House of Burgesses proposed that each colonial legislature appoint a committee for intercolonial correspondence. The exchanges that followed built solidarity during the turbulent times and helped bring about the formation of the First Continental Congress in 1774.</span>

Maude was denied employment with Trucks R Us as a warehouse worker because she didn't meet the weight requirement of 160 pounds.
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer: the correct answer is (B) win, as the weight requirement is discriminatory and doesn't appear necessary for the requirement of lifting 100 pounds.

Explanation:

The key issue here is that 100 pound is not much weight and also there are a number of states and localities that have passed laws against discrimitation on weight or height.

Which of the confederate states were west of the mississippi river​
dimulka [17.4K]
The Trans-Mississippi Theater of the American Civil War consists of the major military operations west of the Mississippi River. The area is often thought of as excluding the states and territories bordering the Pacific Ocean, which formed the Pacific Coast Theater of the American Civil War (1861–1865).

The campaign classification established by the National Park Service of the U.S. Department of the Interior[1] is more fine-grained than the one used in this article. Some minor NPS campaigns have been omitted and some have been combined into larger categories. Only a few of the 75 major battles the NPS classifies for this theater are described. Boxed text in the right margin show the NPS campaigns associated with each section.

Activity in this theater in 1861 was dominated largely by the dispute over the status of the border state of Missouri. The Missouri State Guard, allied with the Confederacy, won important victories at the Battle of Wilson's Creek and the First Battle of Lexington. However, they were driven back at the First Battle of Springfield. A Union army under Samuel Ryan Curtis defeated the Confederate forces at the Battle of Pea Ridge in northwest Arkansas in March 1862, solidifying Union control over most of Missouri. The areas of Missouri, Kansas, and the Indian Territory (modern-day Oklahoma) were marked by extensive guerrilla activity throughout the rest of the war, the most well-known incident being the infamous Lawrence massacre in the Unionist town of Lawrence, Kansas of August 1863.

In what ways did the major industrial nations of the west become more responsive to the needs and interests of working people?
Mekhanik [1.2K]
Industrialization went hand in hand with democratic institutions and respect for private property. To the extent working people constituted a unified block of voters, they had to be listened to. 

<span>Now, let me ask you a question: What does your question really ask? That is to say, what do you mean by "the major industrial nations of the west"? In what way are they different from the "working people" who live in them? Or, do you think that all John D. Rockefeller did was sit around all day and let money flow into his pocket like honey from a pot? Guys like E.H. Harriman worked very, very hard. So, does your question really make any sense?</span>
