Answer: Hammurabi's Code
Explanation:
Hammurabi's code is one of the earliest known legal 'documents' in known history upon which a code of laws was written. It was named Hammurabi's code as it was written during the reign of King Hammurabi of Babylonia.
The code is notable for having some of the earliest basis for the law of retribution or simply put, the idea of "an eye for an eye" by including examples of scenarios where the law would be applied. For instance, the code talks about how a man who steals a cow must pay it back 30 times.

What is the location of the Sabine River?
It is the western boundary of Louisiana.
It forms the northern border of Louisiana.
It runs through central Louisiana dividing the state in two.
It is the boundary between Louisiana and Mississippi.
Answer:
Explanation:
The Sabine River (/səˈbiːn/) is a river, 510 miles (820 km) long,[5] in the Southern U.S. states of Texas and Louisiana.[3] From the 32nd parallel north and downstream, it serves as part of the boundary between the two states and empties into Sabine Lake, an estuary of the Gulf of Mexico. Over the first half of the 19th century, the river formed part of the Spanish–American, Mexican–American, and Texan–American international boundaries. The upper reaches of the river flow through the prairie country of northeast Texas. Along much of its lower reaches, it flows through the pine forests along the Texas–Louisiana border, and the bayou country near the Gulf Coast.
The river drains an area of 9,756 square miles (25,270 km2),[4] of which 7,426 square miles (19,230 km2) are in Texas and 2,330 square miles (6,000 km2) in Louisiana.[6] It flows through an area of abundant rainfall and discharges the largest volume of any river in Texas.[6] The name Sabine (Sp: Río de Sabinas) comes from the Spanish word for cypress, in reference to the extensive growth of bald cypresses along the lower river. The river flows through an important petroleum-producing region, and the lower river near the Gulf is among the most industrialized areas of the southeastern United States. The river was often described as the dividing line between the Old South and the New Southwest.

Who were the 2 Scottish men who may have visited America (perhaps part of the Knights Templar) in the 1300’s?
Answer: Henry I Sinclair, Earl of Orkney and Sir James Gunn
Explanation;
Henry Sinclair was a Scottish nobleman who according to some stories, was the first European to reach North America doing so in the 1300s which would mean he did so a century before Christopher Columbus.
The main proof of this arises from letters between the Zeno brothers in which it is alleged that after Henry saved them from islanders in Shetland and so they pledged to sail with him.
In one of their voyages they reached Newfoundland in Canada before continuing inwards to reach Massachusetts around where Sir James Gunn who was accompanying him on the trip died. They allegedly commemorated this by drawing an outline of an armoured knight with a shield bearing the crest on the Gunn House on a rock which today is found in Westford, Massachusetts.

What legislation was aimed at addressing the trend in this graph?
Answer: Equal Pay Act
Explanation:
The Equal Pay Act was signed into law by President Kennedy in 1963 in response to a wage gap between men and women that had began to escalate out of control.
In 1960 it was estimated that women working the same jobs as men earned less than two-thirds of what their male counterparts earned and pressure from various organizations finally enabled the Act to pass through Congress.
While it is illegal to pay women less than men for similar jobs, the trend continued but has seen massive improvements as a result of the Act and will continue to.

This question is incomplete; here is the complete question:
Identify the allusion in the following paragraph.
Harper had always been a curious child, wanting to know how things operated and what made them run. While watching her father install new light fixtures, she marveled at the intricacies of how electricity worked. She asked her father multiple questions to satisfy her curiosity. Harper's mother had warned her husband against answering every question as it would slow the installation process. "You're opening Pandora's box," she said.
A. Electricity
B. Curiosity
C. Light fixtures
D. Pandora's box
The answer to this question is Pandora Box
Explanation:
To allude means to explicitly refer to or mention an external place, object, person, etc., which helps to explain or illustrate a point. This occurs in the paragraph when the mother says "You're opening Pandora's box" because Pandora's box, which is an object in a Greek myth that released disease, misfortune, and trouble, acts as an external reference to help the mother explain answering questions to Harper is a source of trouble.
how does defunding the police related to the concept of guns or butter?
Answer:
The concept of guns and butter generally refers to the logic in allocating budgets for the Government in terms of whether to donate to defence spending or social programs.
It has been argued that the police get such massive funding because they deal with too many effects of society's problem and this money should instead be used to target the root of the problems instead of their effects.
The police are a law enforcement arm and their primary method of enforcing orders is to use force. While this might work for certain criminals, it will not work on criminals who are engaging in crime out of desperation.
It is argued therefore that instead of investing in guns (police), invest more in butter (social programs) that will tackle the root of the problem and remove the reason for having to fund the police so massively in the first place.
For instance, if more money went into drug rehabilitation, there would be less drug addicts on the streets which would translate to less addicts engaging in crime to get some drugs. If the Government invested in housing for the homeless, more homeless people would have less of an incentive to steal etc.
Essentially, target to root through butter and you will not have to spend on guns.

1. DAP,Beer Hall Putsch, Great Depression
2. Mein Kapsel, Mein Kaiser, Mein Kampf
Answer:
1 Beer Hall Putsch 2. Mein Kampf
Explanation: The Beer Hall Putsch, also known as the Munich Putsch and, in German, as the Hitlerputsch, Hitler–Ludendorff-Putsch, Bürgerbräu-Putsch or Marsch auf die Feldherrnhalle, was a failed coup d'état by the Nazi Party leader Adolf Hitler—along with Generalquartiermeister Erich Ludendorff and other Kampfbund leaders—to seize power in Munich, Bavaria, which took place on 8–9 November 1923. Approximately two thousand Nazis were marching to the Feldherrnhalle, in the city centre, when they were confronted by a police cordon, which resulted in the deaths of 16 Nazi party members and four police officers. Hitler, who was wounded during the clash, escaped immediate arrest and was spirited off to safety in the countryside. After two days, he was arrested and charged with treason. The putsch brought Hitler to the attention of the German nation and generated front-page headlines in newspapers around the world.
Answer:
1. Beer Hall Putsch

The Electoral College was created to:
prevent a single region of the country from having too much political power.
give larger cities more political power.
divide power equally between both houses of Congress.
prevent a single political party from becoming too powerful.
Answer:
Explanation:
First, know that the Electoral College was not made to be a 'perfect' system. And in today's times, the Electoral College has been considered 'out of date'.
One advantage of the electoral college is that it promotes fairness from a regional perspective.
Individual votes count, but in a way that is represented by states.
This prevents 2-3 very large states from overwhelming the popular vote count so that a greater portion of the country can be represented by the government.
The disadvantage is that individual votes feel like they do not count either. In 2000 and 2016, the candidate who won the popular vote did not win the electoral college.
Therefore in my opinion your answer should be A: Prevent a single region of the country from having too much political power.
Hope this helps you understand a bit more.

Reset
Next
The correct answer is B. She would learn better through projects or assignments where she worked alone.
Explanation:
Individualistic cultures reinforce independence and being self-reliant. This influences the behavior and beliefs of individuals in these cultures because they are more likely to act on their own and solve tasks/problems alone rather than working with others or being helped by others.
In this context, Rebecca's cultural background would make her prefer projects and assignments where she can work alone as individualistic cultures promote the idea people should be independent and rely on themselves.
