Answer: 2.1 billion years

Explanation:

The half-life of an element refers to the amount of time it would take for half of its mass to decay.

In 700 million years, Uranium - 235 will be 1/2 of its original mass.

If divided by 2, the 1/2 becomes 1/4 which is the proportion of the original mass the Uranium would get to after another 700 million years.

Dividing by another would get the Uranium-235 to 1/8 of its original value and would take another 700 million years.

Total time taken:

= 700 + 700 + 700

= 2,100 million years

= 2.1 billion years

Answer:

In the West, slavery was viewed primarily around three different ideological considerations:

An abolitionist position, which advocated for the total termination of slavery and the liberation of slaves throughout the territory, seeking to guarantee the full enjoyment of the natural rights of African Americans;

A pro-slavery stance, which defended the existence of slavery based on an "inherent inequality" between whites and other ethnic groups, which served as a justification for the exploitation of the latter in favor of the former;

And finally, an intermediate position, which neither defended nor rejected slavery, but left it to the citizens of each territory to decide whether they wanted slavery to operate in their territory or not.
