Answer:

OA. They wanted all slaves to count toward a state's population.

Explanation:

The issue of slaves being counted as part of the general population was one factor that will help the southern states gain more seats and increase their political influence. But at the same time, including them in the count would mean paying higher taxes.

But as long as their political hold and representation would be more, the Southern states were ready to make that sacrifice. But considering the number of slaves to be included if counted, the Northern states have the lower hand. So, a compromise was drawn, which suggests that three-fifths of the slave population would be counted in all states, be it the South or the North. This compromise was made during the 1787 United States Constitutional Convention, to clear out the issue of direct taxation and also representation in the House.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

Explain why the power of 10 in the answer to the example problem is 10 forth's and not 10 two's
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Power of 10, in mathematics, any of the whole-valued (integer) exponents of the number 10. A power of 10 is as many number 10s as indicated by the exponent multiplied together. Thus, shown in long form, a power of 10 is the number 1 followed by n zeros, where n is the exponent and is greater than 0; for example, 106 is written 1,000,000. When n is less than 0, the power of 10 is the number 1 n places after the decimal point; for example, 10−2 is written 0.01. When n is equal to 0, the power of 10 is 1; that is, 100 = 1.

What was Cibola and what role did it play in the early Spanish exploration of Texas?
Likurg_2 [28]

The legend of Cibola was particularly important to the Spanish exploration of Texas, because it provided explorers with the necessary motivation to lead those explorations.

According to legend, Cibola was a city that had enormous amounts of gold. In this city, everyone was rich and roads and buildings were made of this precious metal. This interested the Spanish explorers greatly, as one of their main goals was to become rich. As they engaged in the mission of discovering this city, they were forced to travel the area of what is now Texas, leading to its discovery and exploration.

Answer:

It provides evidence that Abigail will lie to get out of trouble.

Explanation:

The text shown above shows how Abigail actually became involved in witchcraft, even participating in a spell and drinking blood to harm the proctor family and manipulate John Proctor into returning to her. However, Abigail is unwilling to confess this, because she knows that the punishment for messing with witchcraft and getting involved with a married man will be very serious. So she decides to lie, casting her as a victim and preventing people who know the truth from contradicting her. This shows how Abigail is underhanded and willing to lie to get out of trouble.

Abigail is a character in "The Crucible," a play that reproduces the full story and wave of accusations that occurred during the Salem witch trials.
