History

Mila [183]2 years ago

Answer:

A living wage is defined as the minimum income necessary for a worker to meet his or her basic needs. This is not the same as a subsistence wage, which refers to a biological minimum. Needs are defined to include food, housing, and other essential needs such as clothing.

The Gilded Age also was characterized by social reform, such as women's suffrage, workplace improvements, prohibition, and civil service changes. Women were politically active and played a large role in the economy, both as workers and consumers.

HELP ME PLEASEE!!!!!!!!
kozerog [31]

Answer:

A. The assembly served as a model for other colonial legislatures.

Explanation:

The Virginia House of Burgesses was a government institution in Virginia from 1619 to 1776. In this, the colonies elected representatives whose function was to make certain political decisions and approve laws for the colony. This colonial institution was later replaced by a most modern institution, known as the House of Delegates. However, the creation of the Virginia House of Burgesses was extremely important because it was one of the first institutions with elected representatives, which serve as a model for many other institutions not only in Virginia but also in other colonies. According to this, the correct answer is A.

Another person answered this too.... and they said A too.

What are the benefits of living in a permanent settlement vs. a nomadic settlement? Include at least three benefits
adell [148]
I believe that some of the benefits are longer life span, the ability to harvest crops, and the ability to create a thriving community. I think these are good benefits because if you are living in a permanent settlement then you can grow your own crops meaning that you can live off of those crops and you dont have to go foraging for food (sometimes producing nothing). Also a good community is almost essential to living with a group of people beacause it enhances trade and communication with other communities as well. :)
