If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that. Based on this excerpt, what was Lincoln’s position on ending slavery? 1. He would end slavery if doing so would save the United States. 2. He would end slavery if slaves agreed to join the Union army. 3. He would end slavery if northern factories agreed to employ former slaves. 4. He would end slavery if all prisoners of war were freed.
Answer:
1. He would end slavery if doing so would save the United States.
Explanation:
The text above shows Linconl's position on slavery. When reading this excerpt, we can see that his main concern was the integrity and functioning of the union and that the situation of the slaves would be decided according to what was best for the country.
With that we can conclude that Linconl defended the freedom of the slaves, as long as it saved the USA. However, if slavery were the best for the country, it would also allow that to happen.

To have been a person of the Renaissance meant:
to love wine, women, and song
O to engage in art and artistic pleasures
O to open yourself to learning and inquiry
to engage in social subversion
Answer:
to open yourself to learning and inquiry
Explanation:
The most important meaning of the Renaissance was to open one's mind, become curious, intellectual, and intelligent.
The Renaissance promoted the development of the arts and sciences precisely because those that were considered "Renaissance Men", were people with great intelligence and curiosity, which allowed them to excel at many areas.
For example, Leonardo Da Vinci was good at architecture, painting, anatomy, and even egineering, while Michelangelo was a great painter and sculptor, and some of his works are considered among the best of all time.
Answer:
to engage in social subversion
Explanation:
At the same time, the Renaissance and the Age of Enlightenment were signs that people no longer were content with doing what others told them to do. Instead, they had the power to think for themselves. This knowledge would soon lead to social unrest.

Answer: Ratios are expressed as "group 1 to group 2 ... to group n". For example, if a car lot had 12 vehicles, of which
2 are white, 6 are red, and 4 are yellow, then the ratio of red to white to yellow cars is 6 to 2 to 4. The ratio of yellow cars to white cars is 4 to 2 and may be expressed as 4:2 or 2:1.
A ratio is often converted to a fraction when it is expressed as a ratio to the whole. In the above example, the ratio of yellow cars to all the cars on the lot is 4:12 or 1:3. We can convert these ratios to a fraction, and say that 4/12 of the cars or 1/3
of the cars in the lot are yellow. Therefore, if a person randomly chose one car on the lot, then there is a one in three chance or probability that it would be yellow.

This Mystery Rocks! By Cyntha Schlagel
1The Drifting Rocks are a strange phenomenon still unexplained by science. 2Located in Death Valley, California, the rocks sit on hot, flat ground. 3Unlike normal rocks, they have trails etched behind them as if they have traveled across the sand. 4Some trails are only a few feet. 5Some trails are over a half a mile long. 6Each trail is as baffling as the next.
7The variety of rock movement has baffled scientists for decades. 8Some rocks seem to roll as they move forward. 9Some take unexplainable routes. 10Large ones have traveled past small ones that have stayed still. 11Some scientists suggest that the rocks are pushed by wind. 12Others believe they slide on small amounts of ice or mud. 13So far, research has not confirmed any theory.

How was American society impacted after World War II?
Explanation:
In 1941 the United States was still recovering from the great depression. The jobless rate had been as high as 25 percent, bankruptcy was not uncommon, and the standard of living for most Americans was 60 percent lower than before the stock market crash of 1929. When the war started, all that changed. More people were needed to produce the food and weapons for the men on the front lines. The new jobs were taken by many who had been out of work for several years. As more men were sent away to fight, women were hired to take over their positions on the assembly lines.
Before World War II, women had generally been discouraged from working outside the home. Now they were being encouraged to take over jobs that had been traditionally considered "men's work." existing companies changed their lines from consumer goods to war materials, and new plants were constructed strictly for the creation of products for the war effort. In Ankeny, the Des Moines ordinance plant was already under construction when war was declared. By 1942, .30 and .50 caliber machine gun ammunition began to roll off the line. Jeanne Ersland of Ankeny, formerly Jeanne Gibson, was among the 19,000 people who worked at the facility.
“I think they gave us a short indoctrination as to what we were there for, and then they took us right to the working area. I stayed in that same working area all the time that i was there. I think the patriotism came as it progressed and I was thinking of going on into the service."
After more than a year at the ordinance plant, Ersland joined the United States Marine Corps Women's Reserve. Following training at Camp LeJune, she was assigned to Cherry Point North Carolina and worked as an aircraft engine mechanic.

What occurred in the Roman Empire ?
Answer: The Roman Empire, at its height (c. 117 CE), was the most extensive political and social structure in western civilization. By 285 CE the empire had grown too vast to be ruled from the central government at Rome and so was divided by Emperor Diocletian (r. 284-305 CE) into a Western and an Eastern Empire. The Roman Empire began when Augustus Caesar (r. 27 BCE-14 CE) became the first emperor of Rome and ended, in the west, when the last Roman emperor, Romulus Augustulus (r. 475-476 CE), was deposed by the Germanic King Odoacer (r. 476-493 CE). In the east, it continued as the Byzantine Empire until the death of Constantine XI (r. 1449-1453 CE) and the fall of Constantinople to the Ottoman Turks in 1453 CE. The influence of the Roman Empire on western civilization was profound in its lasting contributions to virtually every aspect of western culture.
