Answer:

The act of the U.S.A in going to war with Mexico proved advantageous in terms of allowing the nation to continue its territorial expansion as it was envisioned by President Polk. It also proved the strength of the U.S. in terms of "patriotism."

On the contrary, the act of the U.S.A. in going to war with Mexico cost the country a lot of money and loss of many lives. It also worsened the issue about "slavery."

Explanation:

The "Mexican-American War" occurred from 1846 to 1848. The war started because of the annexation of Texas.

The U.S. believed that annexing Texas would allow them to expand their territories, however, the Mexican government did not recognize such event. They even prevented diplomatic relationship with the Americans when the Americans attempted to settle the issue with them.

Which purposes might a persuasive political speech serve? Check all that apply.

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The answer is b. and c.

Explanation:

With regards to answer b: A persuasive political speech is geared towards presenting an idea to the general population and supporting it with rhetorical argument. The politician uses rhetoric to garner support from the people, so the speaker has to use devices that appeal to the peoples general sentiments. For example, if a country is facing the decision of signing a free trade deal, the president might deliver a speech to persuade the people of the idea that free trade is the key to economic success.

With regards to answer c: the political speech might serve to unite people during a difficult time, such as wartime, and motivate them to act in the best interest of the country. Consider Winston Churchill, who led Britain to prosperity during World War II. He boosted the morale of the British people, and frequently travelled to the battle fronts to show his people that he new how to solve complex war situations and consequently take action. Since he consistently had 78% approval as prime minister, we can argue that his speeches united Britain and made them strive to take the best course of action.

Which journalistic decisions would violate the code of ethics set by the Society of Professional Journalists? Select two options

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The decision from any journalist that violates the ethics of journalism is "A reporter writes a story about his wife’s company without revealing their relationship" and "A magazine runs a series of articles speculating about a celebrity’s medical history".

Option: (c) and (d)

Explanation:

Society of Professional Journalists is the organization that represents the entire journalists of United States and it sets the boundary line for the journalist’s activities.

For any journalist who attempts to write about the company of his wife without any mentioned relationship of theirs, it would violate the law.

Similarly, it is beyond the ethics to write the series of reports about the medical history of celebrity.

Over what three continents did Caesar conduct his campaigns

Inga [223]

Yes. Caesar again took a big risk, for he was accompanied by only one of his legions—about 3,000 to. 6,000 men, plus cavalry. Although Pompey's forces were nearly twice as large, Caesar defeated them. He continued to conduct successful military campaigns in Egypt, the Middle East, Africa, and Spain. Hope this helps :))

BARSIC [14]

When a person is out of work because she/he left the job she/he had to look for another position, the person is: frictional unemployed.

Transitions in employment that are voluntary within an economy lead to frictional unemployment. Frictional unemployment is a result of both people quitting their jobs willingly and new workers entering the workforce.

Frictional unemployment refers to employees who decide to left the current jobs in search of new ones and people who are just starting out in the workforce. It excludes employees who hold onto their existing position until they find a new one because, presumably, they are never jobless.
