Answers

Answer 1

The Lend-Lease Act stated that the U.S. government could lend or lease (rather than sell) war supplies to any nation deemed “vital to the defense of the United States.” Under this policy, the United States was able to supply military aid to its foreign allies during World War II while still remaining officially neutral in the conflict. Most importantly, passage of the Lend-Lease Act enabled a struggling Great Britain to continue fighting against Germany virtually on its own until the United States entered World War II late in 1941.

 

The Lend-Lease Policy

Lend-Lease, as Roosevelt’s plan became known, ran into strong opposition among isolationist members of Congress, as well as those who believed the policy gave the president himself too much power. During the debate over the bill, which continued for two months, Roosevelt’s administration and supporters in Congress argued convincingly that providing aid to allies like Great Britain was a military necessity for the United States.

In March 1941, Congress passed the Lend-Lease Act (subtitled “An Act to Promote the Defense of the United States”) and Roosevelt signed it into law.

What are the basis of making states in federal system?​

Answers

Answer:

Federalism in India refers to relations between the Centre and the States of the Union of India. The Constitution of India establishes the structure of the Indian government. Part XI of the Indian constitution specifies the distribution of legislative, administrative and executive powers between the union government and the States of India.[1] The legislative powers are categorised under a Union List, a State List and a Concurrent List, representing, respectively, the powers conferred upon the Union government, those conferred upon the State governments and powers shared among them.

This federalism is symmetrical in that the devolved powers of the constituent units are envisioned to be the same. Historically, the state of Jammu and Kashmir was accorded a status different from other States owing to an explicitly temporary provision of the Indian Constitution namely Article 370 (which was revoked by the Parliament in 2019).[1] Union territories are unitary type, directly governed by the Union government. Article 1 (1) of the constitution stipulates two tier-governance with an additional local elected government. Delhi and Puducherry were accorded legislatures under Article 239AA and 239A, respectively.[1]

The Transcontinental Railroad

The transcontinental railroad was built by the Central Pacific and Union Pacific Railroad Companies. Construction began in 1863. The two companies started on opposite ends of the country and built toward each other for seven years. During that time, both companies overcame many struggles. There were weather delays, and holes had to be cut through mountains. When finished, the railroad was 1,912 miles long and connected the country from coast to coast. Transporting passengers and goods was faster, easier, and less expensive by train.

Use the passage to answer the question.


Which conclusion does this text support?

A. Building the railroad was a difficult process.
B. People preferred riding in wagons to riding by train.
C. The railroad workers enjoyed building the railroad.
D. Building the railroad was an easy process.

Answers

Answer: A
C and D are wrong right off the bat because building a railroad during bad whether is not enjoyable or easy, plus it took seven years to build so it was not fun
It is not B because the passage does not state anything about people preferring to ride in wagons to riding by train
So it is A because truly it was a difficult process

Answers

ANSWER:
the presidential election was rigged.

The event most directly caused increasing instability in South Vietnam in 1955 is The presidential election was rigged. Thus the correct option is A.

What is an election?

The election refers to the procedure through which an individual participates in the process of voting in order to establish a government with their chosen representatives by supporting them.

The division that existed between the US and the USSR during the cold war as a result of the danger of communism is one of the main causes of the Vietnam War. The consequences of the Gulf of Tonkin incident compelled America to support and enter the war.

The official end of the Vietnam War was announced. The "cease-fire" that marked the conclusion of the Korean War suggests that it was never actually over. Vietnam made the decision to become an all-Communist nation once the war was over.

Therefore, option A is appropriate.

What is a matter?

Matter is a material substance that makes up the observable universe and, along with energy, serves as the foundation for all objective phenomena.

At its most basic level, matter is made up of elementary particles known as quarks and leptons . Quarks combine to form protons and neutrons, which combine with electrons to form atoms of periodic table elements such as hydrogen, oxygen, and iron.

Atoms then combine to form molecules, for example the water molecule, H2O. The bulk matter of everyday life is made up of large groups of atoms or molecules.

A mineral is an element or chemical compound that is usually crystalline and was formed by geological processes. Quartz, feldspar minerals, calcite, and other minerals are examples

If consumption expenditures are $150 million, net investment is $70 million, imports are $30 million

Answers

Answer:

The right solution is "278 million".

Explanation:

The given question is incomplete. Please find attachment of the complete query.

The given values are:

Consumption expenditure,

= $150 million

Net investment expenditure,

= $70 million

Exports,

= $10 million

Imports,

= $ 30 million

According to the government expending,

Goods and services,

= $60 million

Security of the society,

= $18 million

Existing homes sales,

= $60 million

Now,

As we know,

⇒ [tex]GDP=Net \ consumption \ expenditure + Net \ investment \ expenditure + Net \ export (Export - Import) + Net \ government \ expenditure[/tex]On substituting the given values in the above formula, we get

⇒       [tex]=150 + 70 + (10 -30) + (60 + 18)[/tex]

⇒       [tex]=150 + 70 - 20 + 78[/tex]

⇒       [tex]=278 \ million[/tex]
