Question 6(Multiple Choice Worth 3 points)
(02.08 MC)

When the Constitution was first ratified, men who did not own property could not vote. Later amendments to the Constitution have affected Americans' participation in government. Amendment 24 ensures that

1. slavery is abolished
2. people of all races can vote
3. even people who are not wealthy can vote
4. women are included as citizens

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a terrible and bloody Civil War freed enslaved Americans. The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution (1868) granted African Americans the rights of citizenship. However, this did not always translate into the ability to vote. Black voters were systematically turned away from state polling places. To combat this problem, Congress passed the Fifteenth Amendment in 1870. It says:

The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.

Yet states still found ways to circumvent the Constitution and prevent blacks from voting. Poll taxes, literacy tests, fraud and intimidation all turned African Americans away from the polls. Until the Supreme Court struck it down in 1915, many states used the "grandfather clause " to keep descendents of slaves out of elections. The clause said you could not vote unless your grandfather had voted -- an impossibility for most people whose ancestors were slaves.

This unfair treatment was debated on the street, in the Congress and in the press. A full fifty years after the Fifteenth Amendment passed, black Americans still found it difficult to vote, especially in the South." What a Colored Man Should Do to Vote", lists many of the barriers African American voters faced.

D. Comma splice

Answers

A: fused sentence.
A fused sentence is a sentence that incorrectly fuses w no punctuation.

It wouldn’t be Inverted word order because that would mean the sentence is out of order, it is in order telling us “my aunt come to visit, we took her to the museum” it wouldn’t be “we took her to the museum, my aunt came to visit”

A sentence fragment is only part of a sentence that’s only telling us one piece of information, this is a full sentence telling us everything we need to know, it’s just not punctuated correctly.

A comma splice is using a comma where one is not needed, I see no comma in this sentence, therefor this wouldn’t be correct.

1. Income taxes are taxes levied on individuals or entities based on their income or profits. These taxes are typically imposed by the government and can be levied at the federal, state, and local levels.

The amount of income tax owed is determined by applying a specific tax rate or a progressive tax system to the taxable income earned by the individual or entity.

2. Payroll taxes are taxes that are withheld from an employee's wages or salary by an employer. These taxes are used to fund various government programs such as Social Security, Medicare, and unemployment insurance.

Payroll taxes are typically calculated as a percentage of the employee's wages or salary and are shared between the employer and the employee, with each contributing a portion of the tax.

3. Property Taxes:

a. FICA tax, Medicare tax, federal income tax, state income tax, and other local taxes are all part of a specific tax: This statement does not accurately describe property taxes. Property taxes are levied on the value of real estate, including homes, land, and buildings.

b. You pay these taxes if you own a home, boat, car, ATV, etc.: This statement correctly describes property taxes. Property taxes are assessed on various types of property that individuals or entities own, including homes, land, vehicles, boats, and recreational vehicles.

in your own words, explain how the social structure of society shifted during the Renaissance period.​

Answers

Answer: During the Renaissance, the social structure had been reshaped with the abandonment of the feudal system. The feudal system was the combination of the legal, economic, military, and cultural customs that flourished in Medieval Europe between the 9th and 15th centuries. Broadly defined, it was a way of structuring society around relationships that were derived from the holding of land in exchange for service or labor. So in getting rid of the feudal system it paved a new way for peasants and slaves.

Hi there!

I believe your answer is:  

The demands of society shifted and became based on money instead of allegiances.

»»————- ★ ————-««  

Here’s why:  

⸻⸻⸻⸻

King, the higher clergy, nobles, lesser nobles-knights-lower clergy, and serfs-peasants make up the social framework. During the Renaissance, society's needs evolved, and allegiances were replaced by money. This new style of thinking was difficult for the church to adjust to. According to Abernathy, the most significant socioeconomic shift during the Renaissance was the end of feudalism and the establishment of a capitalist market economy. A middle class arose as a result of increased commerce and the labor scarcity caused by the Black Death.
