Answer:

1: the first Continental Congress meets in Philadelphia. On September 5, 1774, the first Continental Congress in the United States met in Philadelphia to consider its reaction to the British government's restraints on trade and representative government after the Boston Tea Party.

2: It was in essence, a social contract in which the settlers consented to follow the compact's rules and regulations for the sake of survival. Thus, the colonists sincerely believed that they had the right to govern themselves, being separated from Britain by an ocean and having founded an entirely new society.

3: Americans had hoped that Parliament had curtailed colonial rights without the king's full knowledge, and that the petition would cause him to come to his subjects' defense. When George III refused to read the petition, many Americans realized that Parliament was acting with royal knowledge and support.

4: After violence broke out between Britain and its American colonies in 1775, delegates from the thirteen colonies met in Philadelphia to plot the course of war—and soon, independence.

What is the most important moral from the folktale The Two Frogs?

amm1812

Answer:

Always keep your eyes on your goal.

Explanation:

The folktale tells the story of two frogs who lived in Osaka and Kyoto and planned on having a view of the world by visiting each other's cities. On their way, they met each other along the road and decided to rest. They got the idea of viewing their destinations by helping each other stand on their hind. They never knew that their eyes could only view the cities behind, leading them to the conclusion that their was no difference between their destined cities.

This teaches a lesson on keeping your eyes on your goal. You should never allow distractions make you to forfeit your goals.

The function f(x) = 2·5x can be used to represent the curve through the points (1, 10), (2, 50), and (3, 250). What is the multi

Dovator [93]

Answer:

Explanation:

The function is $f(x) = 2 \cdot 5^{x}$ , which means that an increase of a unit in x leads to a multiplicative rate of change of 5 in y. For instance:

$f(1) = 2\cdot 5^{1}$

$f(1) = 10$

$f(2) = 2 \cdot 5^{2}$

$f(2) = 2 \cdot 5\cdot 5$

$f(2) = 50$

$f(2) = f(1) \cdot 5$

$f(3) = 2\cdot 5^{3}$

$f(3) = 2 \cdot 5\cdot 5 \cdot 5$

$f(3) = f(2) \cdot 5$

Therefore, it is proven that:

$f(n) = 5 \cdot f(n-1)$

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter B) <u>throw with force</u>.

Explanation:

As we know, denotation refers to the primary, original meaning of a word -- in contrast to connotation, which refers to a secondary meaning evoked in a certain context. By definition, the verb "cast" means to throw something forcefully in a specific direction. In the passage, God is the one throwing his enemies with force into hell. Even if we did not know the meaning of cast, we would have been able to get to that conclusion due to the context surrounding the word. The passage is talking of violent actions such as cutting and crushing. Tossing lightly, releasing into air, or dropping casually, therefore, would greatly contrast with the meaning of the whole paragraph.
