True.

"Hughes patented the technology in 1909 and, with partner Walter Sharp, formed the Houston-based Sharp-Hughes Tool Company to manufacture the bit. After Sharp died in 1912, Hughes bought his interest in the company. When he in turn passed away in 1924, Howard Jr., an only child whose mother had died two years earlier, inherited the thriving company and became a millionaire."

Which of the following helped support passage of the new Constitution?
Anna007 [38]

The correct answer is:

1. The Federalist essays

4. The promise to create a Bill of Rights.

Explanation:

The Federalist essays or papers were written by James Madison, Alexander Hamilton and John Jay in the late 1780s. Those essays were sent under the pseudonym "Publius" to newspapers to influence the voters in favor of ratification of the Constitution of the United States arguing that it would help to give power to the federal government so it could act on behalf of the nation's interest and that it would preserve the Union, the essays also discussed general problems of politics, and were published all together as a book in 1788. The Federalist papers influenced doubtful states to ratify the Constitution.

<em>Anti federalists thought the Constitution gave too much power to the federal government</em>, and that it needed a Bill of Rights to make sure the federal government wouldn't abuse its power, so during the ratification process Massachusetts, Virginia and New York pressured for the creation of the Bill of Rights, and James Madison (federalist) agreed to write the Bill of Rights to ensure ratification of the United States Constitution.

Dear Grand Daughter

I don't know if I will still be there when you get a chance to read this letter.
Things must have changed a lot by the time you read this.

I am an old man already, and belong to a different time. In our era, large and extended families loved together and loved each other. However, I already see large families breaking up and everyone being very individualistic, something I detest.

However, I have seen some amazing changes take place in front of me. I saw the development and growth of Radio, Telephone, Airplanes, Movies and TV! And I can't imagine the things you would see in your time.

Just remember one thing my love, change is the only constant in life. Never feel bad about it! Embrace it and you will be successful, if you avoid it, you will only Perish

I hope you find this letter in a time and place where you feel the happiest and I only wish the best for you
Yours truly
Your Grand dad
