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.

In your essay, you must:




articulate a defensible claim or thesis that responds to the prompt and establishes a line of reasoning.



use your knowledge of federalism, the constitutional position of the US Senate, partisan politics, checks and balances, voting rights, and the history of redistricting or gerr

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.

The correct answer is  ∠Y = 75°
because

    45°∠A ∼ ∠X         
         ∠B ∼ ∠Y = 75°   
    60°∠C ∼ ∠Z    
   
  45 + 60 = 105   
  180 -105 = 75

You need $2,500 as a deposit for a new car. You have already saved 50% of this amount. Which calculation could you use to check
Taya2010 [7]

well, 50% is pretty much half.


you need 2500 for the deposit, you have 50% or half of that.


whatever% of anything is just (whatever/100) * anything.


50% of 2500 is just (50/100) * 2500 or 0.5 * 2500 or 1250.


how much more do you need? well, you need the other 50%.


50% of 2500 is just (50/100) * 2500 or 0.5 * 2500 or 1250.

Proximately 32, 800 citizens of the country died in my automobile accident in 2015. Expressed this toll in deaths per day
Anton [14]
Remark
2015 is an odd numbered year. It is not a leap year. It has 365 days in it.

Equation
Total deaths = deaths / day * number of days

Givens
Total deaths = 32800
deaths / day = ???
number of days  = 365

Sub and solve
32800 = x * 365  Divide by sides by 365
32800 / 365 = x
x = 89.86 deaths per day.

Problem
Do you round up, down or leave the number as it is?

I would round up 90 deaths per day. 

Discussion 
Just how much are you out?
Total deaths in a year (rounded) = 90 * 365
Total deaths in a year (rounded)= 32850 which is 50 too many

Suppose you round down 
Total death/day = 89 * 365 = 39485 Rounding up is going to be better if you round at all.

Perhaps you should not round the answer at all and leave it at
89.86 <<<<< answer.
If you have choices, please list them.
