History

vovikov84 [41]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

Indeed, Al Khwarizmi (Muḥammad ibn Mūsā al-Khwārizmī) works on mathematics has impacted our understanding of mathematics today.

For example, Al Khwarizmi has been attributed as the founder of algebra, an interesting branch of mathematics. That is to say, if not for his works on algebra, we may not have had proper knowledge about solving equations (quadratic equations).

One of his interesting quote that reflects our modern understanding of mathematics is,

<em>"When I consider what people generally want in calculating, I found that it always is a number. I also observed that every number is composed of units, and that any number may be divided into units. Moreover, I found that every number which may be expressed from one to ten, surpasses the preceding by one unit: afterwards the ten is doubled or tripled just as before the units were: thus arise twenty, thirty, etc. until a hundred: then the hundred is doubled and tripled in the same manner as the units and the tens, up to a thousand;… so forth to the utmost limit of numeration."</em>

What crime is Anthony accused of doing? How is her description connected to the Constitution? in On Women’s Right to Suffrage
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

  • Susan B. Anthony was found guilty of violating the Enforcement Act of 1870 and New York law by illegally voting, and fined $100. The right to a jury trial exists only when there is a disputed fact, not when there is an issue of law.
  • Susan B. Anthony was a pioneer crusader for women's suffrage in the United States. She was president (1892–1900) of the National Woman Suffrage Association. Her work helped pave the way for the Nineteenth Amendment (1920) to the Constitution, giving women the right to vote.
  • After her indictment, Anthony gave her famous On Womens Right to Vote speech.  In the speech, Anthony invoked the preamble to the U.S. Constitution, pointing out that it addresses We, the people, and not We, the male citizens. She argued that those countries that denied women the right to vote were oligarchies.

Take up the White Man's burden–
fgiga [73]

Answer:

The correct answer is to benefit colonial peoples

Explanation:

To benefit colonial is the right answer because Kipling was someone who proclaimed the idea that European colonial powers are taking on their back the obligation to illuminate Native people of the colonies. They are actually sacrificing according to Kipling, so they could help them evolve.

That is why other options are false.

Europeans have no benefit. They are "helping."
