History

Answer: C.) They wanted to use the waterways to transport goods and crops to distant markets.

Explanation:

The Northwest Territory was a territory created by the US Congress in 1787, the government created the Northwest Ordinances that organized land policy and territorial government in the area. Most of the settlers preferred to choose land close to the lakes and rivers because the territory was inhabited until that moment, so if they were closer to rivers they would be able to transport goods and crops from a long distance, which would make life easier in that region.

Which of the following situations describes a historian using a primary source to learn about u.s president George Washington
kherson [118]
Maybe while we wait for the questioner to provide the options, we can do a little general discussion here about what it means to use a primary source. Primary sources are things that come from persons directly involved in the events or lives being studied.  So, any diary entries or letters of George Washington himself would count as primary sources.  So would any official proclamations or letters or government documents that came from Washington's pen as president.  Or the testimony of contemporaries of his who lived or worked with him would also count as primary source accounts.

So if you're looking for a historian's use of primary sources, look for the ways in which he's using historical material directly connected to the life of the person being studied.  In fact, if you were able to look at a set of the false teeth George Washington wore, that would be a primary source too.  They have a set at the Mount Vernon home/museum.  And by looking at those actual dentures, you'd see they weren't made out of wood like the old (false) story says!
