assuming efficiency of each man to dig trench, in one day, for one hour is constant,

e=\frac{180}{4\times6\times5}=\frac{3}{2}

so one man, working for one hour in one day can dig 1.5 m

so 8 men, working 3 hours a day and will take, say $d$ number of days and efficiency will be constant. so,

$\frac32=\frac{220}{8\times3\times d}$

$\implies d=\frac{55}9=6.12$

Describe two substantial ways in which the Independence of Brazil differed from most other movements for independence in Latin A
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The absence of armed fight against the mother country (Spain and Portugal), and the result of each independence.

Explanation:

The main characteristic of the independence movements of the Spanish colonies is that in almost all there was a war between the colonists and colonizers that dragged on for some years and ended with the victory of the colonists. It was like that in Chile, Uruguay, Argentina, and Bolivia. In Brazil, <u><em>there were several conflicts during the Independence process, but none directly influenced the Declaration of Independence.</em></u>

The main difference between the Independence movements of Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, and Chile is the result achieved by each country. In Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay, declarations of Independence took these countries directly to the republican regime, while <u><em>in Brazil there was only a political break with the metropolis maintaining the entire system that was in force during the colony.</em></u>

How did thomas jefferson simplify the federal government
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

President Thomas Jefferson simplified the United States Federal government by delegating administration and legislation to the individual states. It was his belief that the Federal government should be a little more than a navy and a post office.

Explanation:

Thomas Jefferson believed in a small Federal Government with the states maintaining their autonomy, which they did until after the Civil War. However, Jefferson went against his own ideals growing the Federal Government and going beyond the authority of the President in both the Louisiana Purchase and the First Barbary War.
