Marbury V Madison was one of the most influential court cases in history because it gave the Supreme Court the power of Judicial Review. At the end of John Adams presidency, before Jefferson could take office, he was a lame duck, but he still had power. Adams appoints Marbury an official of Justice of the Peace, but when Jefferson starts his presidency, Marbury goes to Madison (the Secretary of State) and asks for his commision, or when he can do his job. Madison refuses, and Marbury does what any sensible person would do, he goes to the Supreme Court and asks for a Writ of Mandamus, which would force Madison to give Marbury his job. John Marshall, the Supreme Court judge in charge of the case end up not giving Marbury the Writ of Mandamus because he stated that the Judiciary Act of 1789 that declared that the federal courts could issue a Writ of Mandamus was unconstitutional. This established that the Supreme Court, under the Supremacy Clause and Article III of the US Constitution, could review legislative and executive acts and declare them unconstitutional.

Explain how the assassination of the Austrian archduke was an important event.
Flura [38]

Austria-Hungary had control over Serbia, but Serbia did not like that fact. A group of terrorist Serbians called "The Black Hand" assassinated Archduke Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary to assert their frustration over them. This started opening up some of the secret alliances, and Austria-hungary and Serbia went to war. Germany was allied with Austria-hungary at the time, so they joined the fight and declared war on Russia, one of Serbia's allies. Then Germany declared war on France, who had England backing them up. Finally, Germany sank of the United States's ships (actually multiple), thus causing almost all major countries to go at war with one another.

Suppose you had d dollars in your bank account. You spent $21 but have at least $53 left. How much money did you have initially?
Eva8 [605]
By due process of elimination and the fact that it says at least, the answer is b. this is mainly because at least would have the symbol > only and the fact that 53 and 21 do not add to equal 95. 
Cheers!
