Answer:Hope This Helps
Explanation:
On February 4, 1887, both the Senate and House passed the Interstate Commerce Act, which applied the Constitution’s “Commerce Clause”—granting Congress the power “to Regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States”—to regulating railroad rates. Small businesses and farmers were protesting that the railroads charged them higher rates than larger corporations, and that the railroads were also setting higher rates for short hauls than for long-distance hauls. Although the railroads claimed economic justification for policies that favored big businesses, small shippers insisted that the railroads were gouging them.
It took years for Congress to respond to these protests, due to members’ reluctance to have the government interfere in any way with corporate policies. In 1874 legislation was introduced calling for a federal railroad commission. The bill passed the House, but not the Senate. When Congress failed to act, some states adopted their own railroad regulations. Those laws were struck down in 1886, when the Supreme Court ruled in that the state of Illinois could not restrict the rates that the Wabash Railroad was charging because its freight traffic moved between the states, and only the federal government could regulate interstate commerce. Continued public anger over unfair railroad rates prompted Illinois senator Shelby M. Cullom to hold the hearings that led to the enactment of the Interstate Commerce Act.
That law limited railroads to rates that were “reasonable and just,” forbade rebates to high-volume users, and made it illegal to charge higher rates for shorter hauls. To hear evidence and render decisions on individual cases, the act created the Interstate Commerce Commission. This was the first federal independent regulatory commission, and it served as a model for others that would follow, from the Federal Trade Commission to the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Consumer Product Safety Commission.
Evolving technology eventually made the purpose of the ICC obsolete, and in 1995 Congress abolished the commission, transferring its remaining functions to the Surface Transportation Board. But while the ICC has come and gone, its creation marked a significant turning point in federal policy. Before 1887, Congress had applied the Commerce Clause only on a limited basis, usually to remove barriers that the states tried to impose on interstate trade. The Interstate Commerce Act showed that Congress could apply the Commerce Clause more expansively to national issues if they involved commerce across state lines. After 1887, the national economy grew much more integrated, making almost all commerce interstate and international. The nation rather than the Constitution had changed. That development turned the Commerce Clause into a powerful legislative tool for addressing national problems.

IMPORTANT!!! When you consider the voices that were not heard during the Confederation debates, what questions are raised for you? Choose a person or group that you would like to interview back then if you had the chance. What questions would you ask them? (canada)
The process ignored most of the population (all women, native people and large part of visible minorities) and denied them from active political participation through the right to vote. I would choose native because those people were the one that basically FOUNDED Canada and these people aren't giving them the right to vote. I would ask them how would you stand up to these people.

On July 1, 1867, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Quebec, and Ontario formed a federation of colonies in British North America to become the Dominion of Canada.
What happened on 1867 July 1?The British North America Act established the wide spheres of federal and provincial power, which served as the foundation for our modern federal government. The federal government is in charge of such national issues as defense, the postal service, criminal law, and banking. Among the duties of the provinces are largely those of education, health, and natural resources.
Alaska was bought from Russia by the United States on March 30, 1867, exactly one day after the British North America Act obtained royal assent in London. Because Canadians were still considered to be British citizens, becoming a Canadian was not recognized until 1917. Dominion Day's name needed to be changed, but the Canadian Parliament wasn't sure what to call the new holiday. Dominion Day was replaced with Canada Day in 1982.

List four benefits of damming or diverting the Colorado River.
Please help
Answer:
Hydroelectric power is made when water passes through a dam. Dams and waterways store and provide water for irrigation so farmers can use the water for growing crops. Dams help in preventing floods. Since the water stored in dams is fresh water, it can then be used for drinking water.
(This is true for almost all dams.)
Construct a scatterplot and identify the mathematical model that best fits the data. Assume that the model is to be used only for the scope of the given data and consider only linear, quadratic, logarithmic, exponential, and power models. Use a calculator or computer to obtain the regression equation of the model that best fits the data. You may need to fit several models and compare the values of R2.
y = 6.22 e1.39x
y = 20.14 + 13.36 ln x
y = 11.11x0.855
y = 9.56 + 5.66x
Answer:
i)
Find the attached
ii)
The mathematical model that best fits the data is;
y = 7.19 + 12.8 ln x
Step-by-step explanation:
i)
A scatter-plot can easily be constructed using applications such as Ms. Excel and Stat-Crunch.
In Ms. Excel we first enter the data in any two adjacent columns. Next, highlight the data, then click the insert ribbon and select the scatter-plot option.
Excel returns a scatter-plot chart as shown in the attachment below.
ii)
After obtaining the scatter-plot, we shall need to add a trend line in order to determine the mathematical model that best fits the data given.
Click anywhere inside the chart, then select the design tab under chart tools. Click on the Add Chart element in the upper left corner of the excel workbook and select more trend-line options. This feature will enable us to fit any trend-line to our data.
Select any trend line option ensuring you check the boxes; Display Equation on chart and Display R-squared value on chart.
Find the attached for the various trend-lines.
The mathematical model that best fits the data is;
y = 7.19 + 12.8 ln x
Since it has the largest R-squared value of 0.9905
The regression equation of the table of values is y = 9.56 + 5.66x
How to draw the scatter plot?The table of values is given as:
x: 0.2 0.7 1.9 3.5 7.7
y: 3 5 35 37 47
See attachment for the scatter plot based on the above table of values
How to determine the regression equation?To do this, we make use of a graphing calculator with the following calculation summary:
Sum of X = 14Sum of Y = 127Mean X = 2.8Mean Y = 25.4Sum of squares (SSX) = 36.48Sum of products (SP) = 206.4The regression equation is represented as: y = a + bx
Where
b = SP/SSX = 206.4/36.48 = 5.66
a = MY - bMX = 25.4 - (5.66*2.8) = 9.56
So, we have:
y = 9.56 + 5.66x
Hence, the regression equation of the table of values is y = 9.56 + 5.66x
