Answer: C) The 3/5 compromise

It counted 3/5 of the slave population in the southern states that own slaves and this gave the southerners more representation in Congress and taxation. This gave the southern states more political power than it would without counting slave population. The North agreed because it would mean the South would be taxed more and the South wanted the extra electoral power.

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

<u>The disadvantaged citizens: those most in need, the elderly, the poor, the low-income citizen, the retiree, the disabled, the dependent and the unemployed. </u>

Explanation:

The First and Second New Deal were a series of federal programs and measures created to help the U.S. economy recover from the Great Depression, an economic downturn that impacted the lives of millions of Americans. The programs focused on providing aid especially to disadvantaged citizens, such as those most in need, the elderly, the poor, the low-income citizen, the retiree, the disabled, the dependent and the unemployed.

Some of the most efficient programs that provided relief to this group were the Social Security Act (1935), the Civilian Conservation Corps (1933), the Tennessee Valley Authority (1933) and the Works Progress Administration (1935).
