Yes, there are only 9.

Then, in order to prevent President Andrew Johnson, who was soon to be impeached, from naming any new Supreme Court justices, Congress passed the Judicial Circuits Act of 1866. This Act reduced the number from 10 to seven. The decrease was to take effect as the seats became vacant.

However, only two seats were freed up by 1869, so there were eight justices. Congress added one seat back in and decided that there should be nine justices. The Judiciary Act of 1869 officially set the number, and it has not budged since.

Monica [59]

Bethany conducts research and finds that students who attend class get better grades than those who skip. She develops a theory that says that students who attend benefit from class lectures and discussion and will generally get superior grades. The element of a scientific theory that is represented here is consistency: because student consistently attends, they will benefit.

The scientific theory needs to prove that something is real or valid by proving it. First, the scientist collects evidence to study, then it formulates the hypothesis. The scientist elaborates predictions that can be tested through experimentation. The result has to be constant. Consistency means that the desired result comes every time that the scientist examines it.

This refers to the Enclosure movement which was prominent in Britain from the 18th century to the 19th century. Enclosure means to divide or consolidate the communal lands and small holding into what we now see as one big farm which was owned by an individual. This meant that the villagers could no longer, as they could before that, use that land to raise livestock among other things.
