Unfortunately, you forgot to attach the quotation. Without it, we do not know what is its content, just you know it.

What G. W. Plunkitt describes as honest graft is "using inside knowledge to profit from city construction projects."

Plunkitt and Boss Tweed achieved great power through political corruption.

This political machine was based on corrupt practices. Too much money and concessions were given to maintain its political power. The political machine had a big influence in the Democratic political circles and dominated New York City from the mid-1800s to 1934.

How did the roles of different classes play a part in the development of the government in the Roman Republic?


If you can (I'll mark brainliest), write a paragraph like 6-8 ish sentences. If you can't, please just list some points.

Answers

Answer:  Citizenship and the government varied greatly over time. The patricians class dominated the Republic. The highest positions were the two consuls. The senate, made of patricians, elected these consuls. During most of the Republic the Senate was the most powerful governing body.  Senate power was diluted by Sulla  and Julius Caesar leading to the end of the Republic.  Full citizens could vote, marry and trade, but lower class plebeians could not.  Patricians were able to use their wealth to control the Republic but gradually, plebeians gained the power to elect tribunes.  Tribunes could veto Senate acts.  Eventually plebeians even held the position of consul.   During times of war The Senate could appoint a dictator with the power of absolute control over the military.

What is FDR’s expectation of how the war will end? What specific examples of his language indicate his beliefs about who will be victorious

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

What is FDR’s expectation of how the war will end? What specific examples of his language indicate his beliefs about who will be victorious?

As the leader of the United States during World War II, President Franklin D. Roosevelt showed confidence that with the inclusion of the US Army in the war, the victory was a matter of time.

In the attached excerpt we can read that he thought that he expected victory for the allies and punish the enemy.

When we read "It is not the intention of this government...to resort to mass reprisals. It is our intention that just and sure punishment shall be meted out to the ringleaders responsible for the organized murder of thousands..."

Let's remember that President Roosevelt died before the end of World War. Harry S. Truman was the United States President that had to make the toughest decision to launch the atomic bomb over Hiroshima and Nagasaki to end World War II.

Answers

The correct answer is B) it adopted the form of Christianity practiced in Egypt.

A unique aspect of the ancient Ethiopian civilization was the fact that it adopted the form of Christianity practiced in Egypt.

The kingdom of Aksum was a great Empire that inhabited the territory of Ethiopia, Africa. Its coins were very special for the people of Aksum in that reflected its culture, its most important figures, and rulers. Carved with Greek and Ethiopian inscriptions, the coins also included figures of the Christian religion that showed that Aksum people were devotees of this religion. The Axumite currency reflected Axum’s culture in that it incorporated Christian symbols and Geez writing

The written language of Aksum was the Ge'ez. It has Arabic origins that were modified by the Greeks. Originally, Ge'ez was the liturgical language of the Ethiopian church. It also was spoken in some Arabic tribes of the time. In this modern era, the Ge'ez language is still used in some religious ceremonies in Ethiopia. They also use two derived languages called Amharic and Tigrigna.

Answer: Bennett Riley

Explanation:

Bennett Riley was an American Colonel who held the position of military governor in California during a time of conflict with Native Americans as well as a particularly violent gold rush.

To this end, he encouraged the elections of delegates so that they would draft a state Constitution and pressure on Congress to grant them statehood.

Create a graph illustrating the effect of a price floor on the quantity of good. In three or four sentences, summarize the
graph. Upload the graph below.

Answers

Answer:

    Any price control by the government, whether in the form of a price ceiling or a price floor, is damaging to the market and leads to inefficiency. With the help of the graph below, we will be able to comprehend.

                                      (INSERT GRAPH HERE)

    The market was at a $4 equilibrium, and the quantity in the market was 100. Following a storm, the government decided to set a price ceiling of $2 for the good. According to the government, a reduced market price will help people to build demand in difficult times.

    At $2, the total supply in the market is 75, while demand has climbed to 125, resulting in a 50-unit shortfall. It will raise the price of the goods to $5, resulting in a market deadweight loss. It may also increase the market's black marketing of items. Overall, market price control regimes are bad since they affect the intended benefactors, namely the customer.

a = 1, b = 6

Step 1 : sub in a = 1 and b = 6 and solve

x = - 6 / 2 x 1

x = 03

Step 2 : evaluate the function for x = -3

f(x) = x^2 + 6x - 1; x = -3

Step 3 : calculate the function value of x = -3

f(-3) = -10

The vertex aka the minimum is:

Answers

La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

A pesar de que no especificas el país al que te refieres ni anexas opciones o incisos para responder, podemos responder en términos generales.

uno de los aspectos políticos del siglo XIX que se ha mantenido hasta la actualidad?

Uno de los aspectos políticos del siglo XIX que se ha mantenido hasta la actualidades la importantísima separación entre la iglesia y el Estado, que ha favorecido el crecimiento social y el desarrollo político-económico de los países.

También llamada secularización, esta separación entre iglesia y gobierno ha permitido la implementación de un Estado laico, sin ninguna asociación a doctrinas religiosas, lo que le permite gobernar sin ninguna influencia y presión eclesiástica, como sucedía en el pasado, durante la presencia de la corona española en Latinoamericana y tiempo después de la independencia de algunos países como México.

Hoy en día, esa separación es muy importante para que los países puedan tener una sociedad libre y plural.
