Answer:

c. contributory negligence

Explanation:

Negligence occurs when a party does not do what is required of him in a given situation. It is being careless with one's responsibility.

Contributory negligence is when one does not show sufficient care for himself or is acts in such a way that contributes to an accident.

If a defendant is able to prove contributory negligence in the case of an accident the plaintiff will not be able to recover any damages.

For example if one enters a busy road when a green light for cars was on and there is an accident. He put himself in harm's way and will not be able to claim damages because he has contributory negligence

How long do representatives serve in<br> Articles of confederation
Triss [41]

Answer:

By the provision of Article 5 of the Articles of Confederation, Congress (House of Representatives and Senate) could not serve more than a six years term.

Explanation:

The Articles of confederation was written in 1771 and approved in 1781. The Articles of confederation which was the first constitution of America established an organ of government namely; the Legislature without an Executive organ. The Legislative organ of government is known as the Congress, made up of the House of Representatives and Senate.

It established a bicameral Legislative organ that had representatives from the 13 states at that time. Under the Articles, Congress got their powers from the powers directly delegated to them by the States. They could only function based on the delegated powers to appoint civil servants, declare war, take care of military affairs, etc.

The Articles of Confederation had its shortcomings, as it required more than 2/3 majority to pass a bill into law. The establishment of the United States Constitution ushered some reforms.

Ipaliwanag ang ugnayan ng pag-unlad ng sarili at pag-unlad ng bayan​
mezya [45]

Answer:

Ano ang personal na pag-unlad? Ang personal na pag-unlad ay hindi isang milyahe at hindi ito nakakamit ng isang tiyak na edad. Ang personal na pag-unlad ay isang patuloy na proseso para sa mga pipiliing magtrabaho dito. Dahil ang pagkamit ng pagiging perpekto ay imposible, ang bawat isa ay may silid para sa pagpapabuti sa ilang mga lugar sa kanilang buhay.

Sa mabilis na paglaki ng populasyon at mga lugar para sa mga negosyo upang gumana sa isang abot-kayang batayan na mahirap makuha sa modernong panahon, ang kahalagahan ng tuluy-tuloy na pamumuhunan at pag-unlad ng ating mga bayan ay na-highlight nang higit pa kaysa dati. Para sa mga tagaplano ng bayan, ang makilala hindi lamang ang ilang mga lugar ng lunsod para sa kaunlaran, ngunit ang mga partikular na paggamit para sa mga gusaling mayroon nang naging pangunahing pag-aalala kung ang bansa ay patuloy na umunlad sa labas ng kabisera. Sa maraming mataas na lansangan sa buong bansa na hindi na tumatakbo sa parehong paraan na dati (mas gusto ng mga tao ngayon na bisitahin ang mga pagpapaunlad sa labas ng bayan upang mag-shopping), ang mga sentro ng bayan ay kailangang umangkop sa mga nagbabagong oras at magbabago kung sila pa rin nais na maging isang kaakit-akit na lugar para sa mga bisita, negosyo at mga nakatira doon.

Answer the following questions that have to do with the "Brown V. Board of Education".
icang [17]

Answer:

I agree with the decision of the case because in the declaration of independence paragraph two it states, "All men are created equal." it would be unconstitutional for schools to be separated based on the color of there skin. I wouldnt have done anything differently if I were a judge of the supreme court because I would know that it violates the the 14 Amendment.

Answer:

b. upper middle class

Explanation:

We know working class, is the regular, average class and is not the rare individuals that are considered rich or high income. We also know it can't be working poor, as poor is pretty much the complete opposite of high-income or in other words rich. Upper middle class seems to be the most valid option as upper means higher up, more richer, and higher-income then the average class.
