Answer 1

Hello. You forgot to enter the answer options. The options are:

African American migrants were moving from the southern to the northern states.

Small subsistence farms dominated older, more established states such as Virginia and Maryland.

Newly settled states such as Kentucky and Tennessee relied less on slave labor than did regions elsewhere in the South.

The use of slave labor was declining throughout the South by 1800.

Answer:

Newly settled states such as Kentucky and Tennessee relied less on slave labor than did regions elsewhere in the South.

Explanation:

Although you have not made the table available, according to historical documents, we can conclude that states like Kentucky and Tennessee depended less on slave labor than other southern states. This explains the smaller number of blacks in these two territories, who in addition to being new, preferred another type of labor.
