The correct answer is A) Jacob Riis.

Jacob Riis was a Progressive era muckraker who wrote one of the most famous books of the late 19th century. The book is called <em>How the Other Half Lives. </em>In this book, Riis uses descriptions and pictures to show the living conditions of immigrants in major cities  (like New York). The goal of this was to expose the poor living conditions of these citizens in hopes that people would demand change regarding the conditions of tenements in major cities.

Answer:

Yes, the founding fathers made the right decision in selecting the views of John Locke rather than Thomas Hobbes

Explanation:

Two famous English philosophers have influenced politics. John Locke and Thomas Hobbes have made contributions with their beliefs that helped to lay a structured society. Locke has been the most prominent in giving ideas on the view of human nature, individual rights which assisted in forming a constitution that still exists.

Thomas Hobbes introduced ideas based on social contract theory. In the social contract, people usually transfer their natural rights. He used the social contract method to describe that people should submit to the authority of absolute power. It seems that Hobbes ideas have not taken in the founding paper of the United States.

The inequality which best describe the third side of the triangle which has two sides of unit 20 and 31 is 20>b>31.

<h3>What is triangle inequality theorem?</h3>

Triangle inequality theorem of a triangle says that the sum of the two sides of a triangle is always greater than the third side.

Suppose a, b and c are the three sides of a triangle. Thus, according to this theorem,

(a+b)>c

(b+c)>a

(c+a)>b

The two sides of the triangle are 20 and 31. From the inequality theorem, the another side b can be represented as,

(20+31)>b

Thus, the length of b can be between 20 and 31.

20>b>31

Hence, the inequality which best describe the third side of the triangle which has two sides of unit 20 and 31 is 20>b>31 .

ELEN [110]
The correct answer is federal only

The federal government is the only one who has the power to respond to such situations. Countercyclical states are when the opposite of what is going to the economy is happening in another field. For example, unemployment is countercyclical because the slower the economy, the higher the unemployment. The federal government is the only one that can respond to this.
