Answer:

They organizedly began to resist the centralist and mercantilism policies of British rule.

Explanation:

  • in 1765, the Sons of Liberty was founded in New England, and in the same year the Stamp Act Congress refused all extraordinary taxes, a boycott of British goods was declared, and the accepted principle of the No taxation without representation policy of the American colonies.
  • It called for direct representation of the American colonies in the British Parliament, which decisively rejected.
  • Although the British Parliament abolished extraordinary tax levies after the conflict between the British Army and the Americans in Boston in 1770 (The Boston Massacre), it already gave the East India Company a monopoly on tea exports as early as 1773. When agents of the company, despite the resistance of the colonists, attempted to unload tea in Boston, a group of Americans broke into the ship and threw all the cargo of tea overboard. This event is known in history as The Boston Tea Party.
  • Following British violence in the Massachusetts colony (1773), representatives of the 13 colonies met next year in Philadelphia for the first Continental Congress, at which they again took up autonomy and resolved the crisis peacefully.
  • Because King George III rejected their proposals and stated that colonies must obey, incidents between the colonists and the British army were frequent. The British responded by closing the ports, handing over the lowlands of Ohio to Canada (Quebec Act, 1774) and a series of repressive measures.

During a rainstorm, 15 liters of water fell per square meter. By how much did the water level rise in an outdoor pool?
pogonyaev
Usally a pool has 7.5 gallons. A gallon equals to 8.5( in weigth). 15 liters equals to 3.96258 In a gallon but in a square meter it equals to 1000 liters. I would say you estimate the 15 liters to a number that would calculate easier.

Your answer would be-  12.3
 or a big number XD
Hope this helps
