Answer:

B) Land speculators were most able to purchase land in the affected areas.

Explanation:

In 1784-1785, the Continental Congress discussed and adopted the first land ordinance, a draft of which was prepared by Jefferson, although the final approval of the ordinance was carried out in his absence. Amendments were made that belittled the Jefferson project, its democratic orientation. Particularly unfavorable was the condition that land can be sold in 640 acre plots at a minimum price per acre of $1. The purchase of such a site was available only to planters or land speculators.

Answer:  B) Land speculators were most able to purchase land in the affected areas.

Explanation: A major disadvantage of the Land Ordinance of 1785- for the average settler, anyway- was price. Because of the price of the land, speculators were MOST able to purchase land in the affected areas. The average settler who wanted to start a new life farming the land was rarely able to pay the minimum price for a piece of land at that time. The price was around $640 for an entire plot, which worked out to well over $10,000, when adjusted for inflation. The result: land speculators snapped up the best land, then either resold it to others or developed businesses there.
