Answer:The entry of the United States into World War II caused vast changes in virtually every aspect of American life. Millions of men and women entered military service and saw parts of the world they would likely never have seen otherwise. The labor demands of war industries caused millions more Americans to move--largely to the Atlantic, Pacific, and Gulf coasts where most defense plants located. When World War II ended, the United States was in better economic condition than any other country in the world. Even the 300,000 combat deaths suffered by Americans paled in comparison to any other major belligerent.
Building on the economic base left after the war, American society became more affluent in the postwar years than most Americans could have imagined in their wildest dreams before or during the war. Public policy, like the so-called GI Bill of Rights passed in 1944, provided money for veterans to attend college, to purchase homes, and to buy farms. The overall impact of such public policies was almost incalculable, but it certainly aided returning veterans to better themselves and to begin forming families and having children in unprecedented numbers.
Not all Americans participated equally in these expanding life opportunities and in the growing economic prosperity. The image and reality of overall economic prosperity--and the upward mobility it provided for many white Americans--was not lost on those who had largely been excluded from the full meaning of the American Dream, both before and after the war. As a consequence, African Americans, Hispanic Americans, and American women became more aggressive in trying to win their full freedoms and civil rights as guaranteed by the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution during the postwar era.
The postwar world also presented Americans with a number of problems and issues. Flushed with their success against Germany and Japan in 1945, most Americans initially viewed their place in the postwar world with optimism and confidence. But within two years of the end of the war, new challenges and perceived threats had arisen to erode that confidence. By 1948, a new form of international tension had emerged--Cold War--between the United States and its allies and the Soviet Union and its allies. In the next 20 years, the Cold War spawned many tensions between the two superpowers abroad and fears of Communist subversion gripped domestic politics at home.
In the twenty years following 1945, there was a broad political consensus concerning the Cold War and anti-Communism. Usually , there was bipartisan support for most US foreign policy initiatives. After the United States intervened militarily in Vietnam in the mid-1960s, however, this political consensus began to break down. By 1968, strident debate among American about the Vietnam War signified that the Cold War consensus had shattered, perhaps beyond repair.

What do you think the impact of being in a residential school had on children?
Briefly explain how one person event or development from 1775 to 1900 could be used to support the pyramid of capitalism systems interpretation
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The development from 1775 to 1900 that could be used to support the pyramid of capitalism systems interpretation could be the Gilded Age. The Gilded Age was a time in the United States history when powerful industrialists grew to become monopolies.
The Gilded Age was a time in which rich businessmen increased their fortunes by buying their competitors and creating monopolies, in combination with government corruption acts. That was the case of Jhon D. Rockefeller of the Standard Oil Company and Andrew Carnegie of the US Steel Company.
The Pyramid of Capitalism is a cartoon representation of the hierarchy of Capitalism. The cartoon was drawn in 1911.

What are three reasons and/or motivations for European exploration in the 15th and 16th centuries?
Answer: The aim to establish a religion, a goal of opening new trading routes, and an aim to uncover valuable items such as gold.
Explanation:
One of the main motivations for exploration from European countries during this time period was in fact to open up new trade routes. Back then they did not have many of the luxuries that we have today which allow for fast travel of goods so trading routes were pivotal to the survival and success of civilizations back then. It allowed different civilizations to meet together to barter and trade for goods that were not available in their region. These explorations also hoped to uncover gold and other fine items that could be used for royalty or as bartering tokens to increase a nations wealth. Lastly, Europeans who were vastly Christian aimed to spread their religion to other cultures who lived in other lands.

A song for the grand old Temp'rance tree,
That is bearing goodly fruit!
Its blessings ev'ry where we see,
We praise it, branch and root.
We'll plant it wherever rum shops are,
In our native land so far,
Till Its noble branches spread afar
On the golden sunny air!
Ohl we'll gather round
The Temp'rance tree,
And sing our songs of joy.
Till the viper that is in the cup,
Shall no more destroy!

Help math Composite figures and there area please help number the questions please
Answer:
1 of 5) D, 2 of 5) B, 3 of 5) D, 4 of 5) A, 5 of 5) D
Explanation:
1 of 5) The composite area is the sum of the areas of two rectangles. That is:
[tex]A = (4\,cm)\cdot (3\,cm) + (6\,cm)\cdot (2\,cm)[/tex]
[tex]A = 12\,cm^{2}+12\,cm^{2}[/tex]
[tex]A = 24\,cm^{2}[/tex]
The area of the shaded region is 24 square centimeters. (Answer: D)
2 of 5) The composite area is the sum of the areas of the rectangle and the triangle. That is:
[tex]A = (8\,cm)\cdot (5\,cm)+\frac{1}{2}\cdot (5\,cm)\cdot (5\,cm)[/tex]
[tex]A = 40\,cm^{2} + 12.5\,cm^{2}[/tex]
[tex]A = 52.5\,cm^{2}[/tex]
The area of the shaded region is 52.5 square centimeters. (Answer: B)
3 of 5) The composite area is the sum of the areas of the rectangle and the triangle. That is:
[tex]A = (10\,cm)\cdot (4\,cm)+ \frac{1}{2}\cdot (7\,cm)\cdot (6\,cm)[/tex]
[tex]A = 40\,cm^{2}+21\,cm^{2}[/tex]
[tex]A = 61\,cm^{2}[/tex]
The area of the shaded region is 61 square centimeters. (Answer: D)
4 of 5) The composite area is the sum of the areas of four triangles and two rectangles. That is:
[tex]A = 4\cdot \frac{1}{2}\cdot (1\,m)\cdot (2\,m) + (8\,m)\cdot (4\,m)+(3\m)\cdot (1\,m)[/tex]
[tex]A = 4\,m^{2}+32\,m^{2}+3\,m^{2}[/tex]
[tex]A = 39\,m^{2}[/tex]
The area of the shaded region is 39 square meters. (Answers: A)
5 of 5) The composite area is the sum of the areas of the three semicircles and the square. That is:
[tex]A =3\cdot \frac{\pi}{8}\cdot (10\,cm)^{2}+ (10\,cm)^{2}[/tex]
[tex]A = 117.810\,cm^{2}+100\,cm^{2}[/tex]
[tex]A = 217.810\,cm^{2}[/tex]
The area of the shaded region is 217.810 square centimeters. (Answer: D)
Answer:
D is the first one
