Explain what the 12 amendment was about (minimum of a paragraph)

Answers

Answer 1
The 12th Amendment provided for separate Electoral College votes for President and Vice President, correcting weaknesses in the earlier electoral system which were responsible for the controversial Presidential Election of 1800.



Or you could say


The Twelfth Amendment stipulates that each elector must cast distinct votes for president and vice president, instead of two votes for president. The Twelfth Amendment requires a person to receive a majority of the electoral votes for vice president for that person to be elected vice president by the Electoral College.


Whichever one you like best :)
Answer 2
To prevent this problem from occurring again, the Twelfth Amendment was added to the Constitution in 1804. It requires that the electors cast separate ballots for president and vice president and that if no candidate receives a majority, the House chooses from the top three candidates.

(06.02) Eric plotted the graph below to show the relationship between the temperature of his city and the number of cups of lemonade he sold daily: A scatter plot is shown with the title Lemonade Sales. The x-axis is labeled High Temperature, and the y-axis is labeled Cups of Lemonade Sold. Data points are located at 30 and 4, 40 and 6, 40 and 8, 50 and 2, 55 and 10, 65 and 14, 70 and 16, 75 and 14, 85 and 19, 90 and 20.

Write the approximate slope and y-intercept of the line of best fit. Show your work, including the points that you use to calculate the slope and y-intercept. (3 points)

Answers

Answer:

Part B

Explanation:

The answer for part A: If the city is hotter in temperature more people will want the cold refreshing lemonade.

Part B: The line of best fit is a line that will have the same amount of point on each side so you should draw a straight line and then make sure it has the same amount of point on each side. To calculate the slope use Y2-Y1/X2-X1, Y-intercept is the point that intercepts the Y-intercept.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: Because if it is hot outside you will sweat more being less hydrated which is why more people would want a drink especially lemonade.

How did the increase in warfare contribute to the collapse of the Maya cities?

Answers

40 miles away and you have to pay me irl to pay you back
Maya historians have generally settled on a combination of three main factors which could have caused the Maya collapse: warfare between city-states, overpopulation, and drought. Disease, a social revolution, drought, famine, foreign invasion, over-population, disruption in trade routes, earthquakes, and even hurricanes were held responsible. There was a decline in trade and an increase in armed conflicts. death-rate increased in this period, and from 830 no new buildings were constructed in the central Maya area. As the Maya were fond of writing dates on their monuments and stelae, it is interesting to note that no dates after c. 910 are seen in the lowlands sites. We also have evidence of large areas becoming completely depopulated and royal dynasties and elites disappearing without trace. Finally, we can say that the collapse was neither unique - smaller scale abandonment of Maya cities had occurred several times before over the centuries - nor was it a sudden one but rather a process of decline which occurred over a period of 150 years between c. 760 and c. 910. Such a slow decline would seem to cross off the list disease pandemics and natural disasters, like earthquakes, as factors in the collapse. Further, in both these cases populations tend to recover relatively quickly, whereas the Maya lowlands were never significantly re-populated....

Write a feature story on Queen Isabella and her decision to send Christopher Columbus on a voyage of discovery.

Answers

Answer: Columbus's Voyage

By: Me.

Explanation: Christopher Columbus was an Italian explorer who stumbled upon the Americas and whose journeys marked the beginning of centuries of transatlantic colonization.  

Christopher Columbus originally wanted to find an all new water route to Asia, He was positive that he could get to Asia by sailing west on the Atlantic Ocean. This idea proved him to be very courageous due to the fact that no one has even discovered the true distance of the Ocean to the west. King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain agreed to fund his voyage because they believed that if a whole new sea route was to be discovered that landed in the Indies it would help Spain have the upper hand in the competition against Portugal.  

Throughout Columbus's voyage, Columbus began treating the natives very badly. This includes: enslavement, slaughtering & genocide, r..a..pe, and even starvation. Though Ferdinand and Isabella ordered that the natives be treated with the utmost kindness, Columbus looked past this little order and instead neglected the native's cultural history and identity by causing destruction on thousands of Native American families and individuals.  In 1495, in a large slave raid, Columbus and his men rounded up 1,500 Arawak men, women, and children, and put them in pens. They selected what they considered the best natives and loaded them onto ships back to Spain. Two hundred died en route. Disease and death was one consequence of Columbus's voyages.  Pre-Columbian America had been isolated from many infections that had swept through Asia, Europe, and much of Africa. American Indians had been spared most of the diseases common to societies that raise livestock.

When he returned to Spain in 1504 after his last voyage, Columbus was fifty-three and in poor health. Inflammation of the eyes sometimes made it impossible for him to read and he suffered agonies from what was once diagnosed as gout or arthritis but is now suspected to have been something called Reiter's syndrome.

MORE TO BE WRITTEN....   DONT MIND THE OTHER COMMENTS DOWN BELOW THAT I WROTE, JUST ADD THE WORK CITED MESSAGE.

Hope this helps! By the way, Columbus sucked.

4. World Health Organization
an infectious disease outbreak

Answers

Answer:

1. pandemic - an infectious disease outbreak

2. World Health Organization - an agency of the United Nations

3. social services - government-sponsored services

4. developing countries - low- and middle-income countries

Explanations:

2. The World Health Organization is a specialized agency of the United Nations responsible for international public health. The WHO Constitution, which establishes the agency's governing structure and principles, states its main objective as "the attainment by all peoples of the highest possible level of health". It is headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, with six semi-autonomous regional offices and 150 field offices worldwide.

3. Social services are a range of public services intended to provide support and assistance towards particular groups, which commonly include the disadvantaged. They may be provided by individual actors, private and independent organizations, or administered by a government agency. Social services are connected with the concept of welfare and the welfare state, as countries with large welfare programs often provide a wide range of social services.

4. There is also no clear agreement on which countries fit this category. The term low and middle-income country (LMIC) is often used interchangeably but refers only to the economy of the countries. The World Bank classifies the world's economies into four groups, based on Gross National Income per capita: high, upper-middle, lower-middle, and low income countries.

pandemic - an infectious disease outbreak

social services - government sponsored services

developing countries - low and middle income countries

how did China change after being conquered by the Mongol Empire? I NEED -A P 3 X -ANSWER!!!!!!!!

Answers

Answer:

Until about 20 years ago, most scholars of Mongol-era China emphasized the destructive influence of Mongol rule.

One major scholar of Chinese history even wrote: "The Mongols brought violence and destruction to all aspects of China's civilization. [They were] insensitive to Chinese cultural values, distrustful of Chinese influences, and inept heads of Chinese government." This assessment fits in with the traditional evaluation of the Mongols as barbarians interested primarily in maiming, plundering, destroying, and killing.

As a 13th-century Persian historian wrote of the Mongol campaigns: "With one stroke a world which billowed with fertility was laid desolate, and the regions thereof became a desert, and the greater part of the living, dead, and their skin and bones crumbling dust, and the mighty were humbled and immersed in the calamities of perdition."

It is true that the Mongols, in their conquest of both North and South China, did considerable damage to these territories, and that great loss of life certainly ensued. The population of North China did decline somewhat, though earlier estimates that there was a catastrophic decline in population have subsequently been revised.

This assessment fits in with the traditional evaluation of the Mongols, It is true that the Mongols, in their conquest of both North and South China, The population of North China did decline somewhat, though earlier estimates that there was The Mongols perceived China as just one section of their vast empire.

Explanation:

The Mongols brought a lot of change to China. They undid the long-standing dynastic system of Chinese government and changed the system of government, getting rid of civil service exams that had put government bureaucrats in power.

Prince Siddhartha’s experiences with suffering transformed [transformed: to change in appearance or character] him. Suddenly, his royal life seemed empty. He wanted to find the happiness and peace that the ascetic had found.
Siddhartha decided to give up his old life and search for enlightenment [enlightenment: the state of gaining spiritual insight and finding universal truth; the goal of Buddhists] . Becoming enlightened would mean finding deep truth and freedom from suffering.
One night, the prince asked his driver to take him to the forest. At the edge of the dark woods, Siddhartha removed his royal robes, sandals, and jewels. He cut off his hair with a knife. He put on a simple robe and carried only a small bowl for alms [alms: goods or money given to the poor] ,or gifts of food. Wishing his driver farewell, Siddhartha began his life as an ascetic.
Siddhartha met other ascetics as he wandered the forests and fields. Like him, they wanted to understand the nature of the world. They believed that they could reach enlightenment through meditation. While meditating, the ascetics sat quietly and focused their minds on spiritual questions. Siddhartha quickly became an expert at meditation.
The ascetics also denied [denied: to hold back and refuse something] themselves many basic needs. For example, they stayed up all night without sleeping. They sat in the hot sun without shelter.

1) What did this part of the story reveal about the life of Siddhartha?

Answers

You put too much dude
Siddhartha came from a privileged background where he had most things that people dream of.
But he lacked the most important thing in the world - inner peace.

He would only find his inner peace tho if he freed himself from the shackles of his materialistic being.

Once he had saved himself from the clutches of his riches, inner peace came much closer to him.

He engaged with others to help them be the best version of theme-selves too.

Finding their inner balance was a struggle but one that would be worth it in the future.But he found that this still didn’t bring him inner peace and that his discovery wasn’t yet completed.
