Answer: The Battle of Gettysburg was the final attempt by the South to assault the North. Genetal Lee's tactics failed, and he was forced to retreat back to Virginia. This would be the last time any momentum toward a Confederate victory seemed possible.

Problem Set 3.2

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

Fixed costs do not change as a result of a change in the production amount but variable costs do. So long as the item changes as a result of production, it is a variable cost.

1. Rent ⇒ Fixed

Once rent is paid, it will not change regardless of the quantity produced.

2. Thread ⇒ Variable

In an apparel shop like this one, more thread is needed to produce more clothes so this is a variable cost.

3. Buttons ⇒ Variable.

More buttons are needed for more clothes to be made.

4. Wages ⇒ Variable

Wages will change if more clothes need to be produced.

5. Electricity ⇒ Variable

Cost will change if more clothes are manufactured because more electricity will be used.

6. Cloth ⇒Variable

7. Equipment Rent ⇒ Fixed

This will not change regardless of production level just like rent.

8. Shipping Costs ⇒ Variable Cost

More clothes means more shipping costs to transport them.

9. Insurance ⇒ Fixed cost

10. Property Taxes ⇒ Fixed cost

This does not change regardless of production level as it is based on the property, not production.

Answer:

B I think hope this helps:)

Explanation:

In 1862, President Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation opened the door for African Americans to enlist in the Union Army. Although many had wanted to join the war effort earlier, they were prohibited from enlisting by a federal law dating back to 1792. President Lincoln had also feared that if he authorized their recruitment, border states would secede from the Union. By the end of the war, approximately 180,000 African-American soldiers had joined the fight.

In addition to the problems of war faced by all soldiers, African-American soldiers faced additional difficulties created by racial prejudice. Although many served in the infantry and artillery, discriminatory practices resulted in large numbers of African-American soldiers being assigned to perform non-combat, support duties as cooks, laborers, and teamsters. African-American soldiers were paid $10 per month, from which $3 was deducted for clothing. White soldiers were paid $13 per month, from which no clothing allowance was deducted. If captured by the Confederate Army, African-American soldiers confronted a much greater threat than did their white counterparts.

In spite of their many hardships, African-American soldiers served the Union Army well and distinguished themselves in many battles. Of their service to the nation Frederick Douglass said, "Once let the black man get upon his person the brass letters U.S., let him get an eagle on his button, and a musket on his shoulder and bullets in his pockets, and there is no power on earth which can deny that he has earned the right of citizenship in the United States." African-American soldiers comprised about 10 percent of the Union Army. It is estimated that one-third of all African Americans who enlisted lost their lives.

The journey taken to the Holy land to take land back from the Muslims was the Crusade. When the Turks took control they started to stop letting Christian pilgrims in.

Pope Urban's speech was made here, urging rescue of the holy land. This was the Council of Clermont. This was the beginning of the first crusade and the speech was held in 1095.

The Seljuk Turks were the group that stopped Christians from visiting the Holy Land in 1071. They prosecuted many Christians, mostly in Syria and Palestine.

The Third Crusade was led by 3 kings. This was till 1189-1192. This did not learn to Richard the Lionheart getting Jerusalem, but the pilgrims could now visit the Holy Land.

The First Crusade was led by unskilled peasants and knights in 1096-1099. This was the Crusade that was the most successful and got the Turks out of Jerusalem.

The Fourth Crusade was led by French knights and went against the Pope. This took place during 1202-1204 and the Crusaders actually ended up taking Constantinople instead of the Holy Land.
