The US Constitution originally said that senators would be selected by state legislatures. Per the terms of the 17th Amendment,

senators are now elected directly by the citizens of their respective states.
The party balance in the 115th Congress (2017–19) is 51 Republicans, 47 Democrats, and 2 independents, who caucus with the Democrats. As of January 2018, Republicans had control of the legislatures of 31 states; Democrats had control in 14; control was split in 4; and Nebraska was officially nonpartisan.

Based on the provisions of the 17th Amendment, we can see that the provisions of the United States Constitution gave the people the right to vote for their senators who would represent their interests instead of the state legislature.

With this in mind, we can see that if the seat of a senator is unoccupied, then the governor of the state can<em> make his appointment of a senator</em>.

Based on the given data on the party balance of the US Senators, it is still not enough reason to repeal the 17th Amendment because giving the people the right to choose their representatives is still the core value of democracy which should never be tampered with.

An odd number between 301 and 370 has three different digits. If the sum of its digits is five times the hundreds digit, find th
damaskus [11]
For the answer to the question above, <span> 
5x3 (the hundreds digit)= 15
so 3+x+y=15. 15-3=12. x+y=12.
No even number + odd number can be = 12, so both digits must be odd.
That leaves us with 3+3+z=15, 3+3+x =15 and 3+5+y= 15. 3+1+9 (highest odd digit)= 13 so that is wrong.
3+3+9= 15, but there is a double digit, so wrong again. 3+5+7=15. 357 is the answer.</span>

2. A soccer field is bordered on three sides by a parking lot of width x. The total
notsponge [240]

Answer: 50m

Step-by-step explanation:

this is the logical way I solved it:

1. Find the area of the entire area thing

300*200=60000

2. Subtract the area of the field from the area of the entire place

60000-30000=30000

3. Divide the area of the parking by three because there are three sides

30000 ÷ 3 = 10000

4. Divide 10000 by 200, not 300 because we want to find the side with one <em>x</em>, not two <em>x</em> (there are two sides adding on to the side with 300, but only one side on the side with 200)

10000÷200= 50

I know the steps are weird, but I know this is the right answer because this was on the unit test (same misspelling and everything lol) and during tutoring my teacher showed me how to do it, but of course I had to forget the steps.

a building with a height of 32m casts a shadow that is 20m long. a person standing casts a shadow that is 1.2 m long how tall is
wlad13 [49]
Most of the information's required for solving the question is already given in the question.
Height of the building that casts a shadow of 20 m = 32 m
Then
Height of the man that casts a shadow of 1.2 m = (32/20) * 1.2 meter
                                                                             = 3.2 * 1.2 meter
                                                                             = 3.84 meter
So the actual height of the person casting a shadow of 1.2 meter is 3.84 meters. I hope that the procedure used for solving the problem is easy enough for you to understand. You can definitely use this method in future for solving problems of similar type without requiring any additional help from outside.
