Answer:

a. 1/3

Explanation:

Although, this is a controversial topic and it is hard to state exactly how much income share the top 1% or how much of the United State's wealth rests with the wealthiest top 1% but, it can be said that approximately one-third (1/3) of the wealth remains with the top 1%. Also, some of the sources like Washington Post suggests that up to 40% of the wealth rests with the US top 1% households. Hence, given the options, 1/3 is most suitable.

Why were southern delegates to the constitutional convention
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

Southern delegates to the Constitutional Convention - especially those from South Carolina and Georgia - brought this spirit of liberty with them to Philadelphia. They insisted that any federal government established by a new constitution must respect and protect their property rights. The framers of the Constitution believed that concessions on slavery were the price for the support of southern delegates for a strong central government. They were convinced that if the Constitution restricted the slave trade, South Carolina and Georgia would refuse to join the Union.
