The correct answer is D. new territory that contributed to the formation of seven new states.
After the Mexican-American War, the US and Mexico agreed to the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. This treaty favored the United States heavily, as they won the Mexican-American War. The ultimate goal of this war was to gain land from Mexico, which they accomplished. The Mexican Cession resulted in the United States gaining several thousand square miles of territories. This would result in the creation of states like California, Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, Colorado, etc.
Hey there!!
Let us take the cost of 1 feet redwood as ' x '
Let us take the cost of 1 feet pine as ' y '
For the first scenario :
70 ft red wood and 80 ft pine
1 feet redwood - $x
70 feet redwood - $70x
1 feet pine - $y
80 feet pine - $80y
Total = $351
70x + 80y = 351 --------------------------------- ( 1 )
Second scenario :
1 feet redwood - $x
100 feet redwood - $100x
1 feet pine - $y
60 feet pine - $60y
total - $420
100x + 60y = 420 ----------------------- ( 2 )
Now let us get both the equations together :
70x + 80y = 351 ------------- ( 1 )
100x + 60y = 420 ------------- ( 2 )
Now let us multiply the the 1st equation with 3 and the 2nd equation with 4
3 ( 70x + 80y ) = 3 ( 351 )
4 ( 100x + 60y ) = 4 ( 420 )
............................
210x + 240y = 1053
400x + 240y = 1680
...........................
Now let us subtract the first equation from the second ...
400x + 240y = 1680
- ( 210x + 240y ) = - ( 1053 )
......................
190x = 627
dividing by 160 on both sides
x = 627 / 190
x = 3.3
The cost for 1 feet or per foot for the redwood is $3.3
Now substitute the value of x in any given given equation and find out y
I will substitute in the 1st equation
70x + 80y = 351
70 ( 3.3 ) + 80y = 351
231 + 80y = 351
Subtracting by 231 on both sides
80y = 351 - 231
80y = 120
dividing by 80 on both sides
y = 120 / 80
y = 1.5
The cost for 1 feet or per foot for the pine = $1.5
The answers - $3.3 ( redwood ) ; $1.5 ( pine )
Hope my answer helps!
The governor of Georgia, currently Nathan Deal, is the chief executive officer of a vast modern enterprise. The need for specialized expertise in governing and coordinating society means that Georgia's governor must work with a variety of other elected officials and appointed administrators. Article 5 of the Georgia Constitution, adopted in 1983, establishes an executive branch of government directed by a governor who serves a four-year term of office. The executive branch consists of more than 100,000 employees.
There are seven other popularly elected constitutional executive officers: the lieutenant governor, currently Casey Cagle, who presides over the senate; the secretary of state, currently Brian Kemp; the attorney general, currently Chris Carr; the state school superintendent, currently Richard Woods; and the commissioners of agriculture, insurance, and labor, each presiding over his or her own executive department. The current commissioners are Gary Black (agriculture), Ralph T. Hudgens (insurance), and Mark Butler (labor). In addition, the five-member elected Georgia Public Service Commission reports to the governor, and Article 4 of the constitution creates a variety of agencies, boards, and commissions, each with its own chairperson, some of whom are appointed.
The employees and elected officers of the executive branch provide many of the social services associated with the modern state. Three services dominate the executive branch's budget: education, public health programs, and transportation. The state school superintendent, for example, is responsible for distributing funds, more than $9.7 billion in 2014, to K-12 schools, pre-kindergarten programs, and the HOPE Scholarship. The Department of Community Health, Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities, and the Department of Public Health, all members of the executive branch, promote health programs around the state, take precautions against infectious disease, and provide maternal and child health care. The Department of Transportation constructs and maintains the state's 117,238 miles of public roads and bridges. Finally, the Department of Natural Resources and the Georgia Department of Economic Development respectively seek to preserve Georgia's natural resources for recreational and economic use and to promote Georgia as a tourist attraction and investment opportunit
