Answer:

A) One method that China used to expand its empire after the fall of the Ming Dynasty was the use of their military. After the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty rose, where regional leaders were permitted the right to control captured territories and the founding emperors organized and led armies. The dynasty depended on the military for protection and expansion. They aggressively conquered lands across an eighty-year period, expanding defensively for security reasons. Their aggressive attitude helped them conquer a large amount of land.

    Another method that China used to expand its empire after the fall of the Ming Dynasty was their tolerance for the local people's diverse cultures. Even though they were aggressive in their stance, they generally did not seek to assimilate the locals into Chinese culture, respecting Mongolian, Tibetan, and Muslim cultures of the region. Over time, it expanded China's reach and added a small but crucial minority of non-Chinese people to the empire's population.

B) The Songhay empire was located south of the Sahara Desert and along the Niger River, meaning that its culture was based on a mixture of West African traditions, but Islam still stood as the law of the land and came before everything else. The government system was based on Sharia law, where strict rules and regulations were taken from the Qur'an. The emperor utilized loyal Muslim governors and town chiefs to control the five provinces of the empire. In 1468, Timbuktu, a trading post for salt and gold, was added to the Songhai Empire as the center of Islamic faith in Africa.

C) One technique implemented by the Aztec Empire to generate revenue and consolidate power was through tributes from the conquered regions. Tributes were regularly collected as a collaborative effort by the members of an alliance. Tributes usually consisted of items such as warrior costumes, shields, tropical feathers, copal incense, paper, food, and animal products. Official tribute collectors, also known as calpixque, were located in the conquered provinces to oversee the payments and make sure that the tributes were paid. Regions that failed to pay the tributes were severely punished.

    Another technique the Aztecs utilized to generate revenue and consolidate power was taxation over their citizens. With the exception of priests, nobles, minors, orphans, invalids, and beggars, the empire required a payment to be made to them from everyone else. Merchants paid taxes on the goods that they sold, artisans paid taxes based on the value of their products, and barrios paid taxes through their crop production. Failure to pay these taxes resulted in slavery or property confiscation.

Answer:

The ancient China took about 40 years to stabilize under the Qing Dynasty, following the fall of the Ming Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty used the following methods in expanding its territories;

Military expansions and campaigns.

Chinese immigrations into surrounding empires.

Demanding Chinese silk in trade between China, Europe and Middle east.

The Songhay King used indigenous animist religion to strike fear into his enemies.

To generate revenue, the Aztec rulers improvised an economical strategy of extracting resources from conquered lands and peoples. Some city states were merged into few provinces-rendering raw materials and manufactured goods readily available through local production and trade.

To stabilize and legitimize their rule, Aztec rulers directed for a direct interference with the rulership of subject city states. These conquered city states became more tightly controlled by their overlords. The incorporation of these subjects into the empire was often facilitated by removing the vanquished  city state rulers and replacing them with a trusted imperial relative, sometimes as interim governors.

Another way that the Aztec empire solidified its rule was through the indirect or hegemonic rule. In this case, the rulers of the conquered city states were left in power so long as they agreed to pay semi-tribute to the Alliance with the Aztec empire, as well as supply military forces when needed by the Aztec empire. In return, the Aztec imperial power offered protection and political stability as well as facilitating an integrated economic network.

A River Oaks Pools is trying to calculate the perimeter of the pool so they will know how many bricks to buy for the deck of the pool. Each square on the grid represents a square that is 3ft x 3ft. What is the perimeter of the pool?

Solution:

On the first row and last row, there are 7 numbers of squares. And on the 2nd to 5th row, there are 11 number of squares.

In getting for the perimeter of the area, we'll have to divide the regions. 
Dividing the regions, we'll get three figures/planes :
2 rectangles with Length = 3ft x 4 number of squares and Width = 3ft x 2 number of squares
Thus, for the 2 rectangles,
Perimeter = 2(2L+2W) (times two since there are 2 rectangles)
Perimeter = 2(2(12)+2(6))
Perimeter = 72 ft

Another figure was formed is a square with a 21ft x 21ft
Perimeter = 4(21ft)
Perimeter = 84 ft

Add the two equivalent perimeters:

Total Perimeter = 72+84
Total Perimeter = 156 ft
