Answer 1

#1 — Why would soldiers be needed to collect tolls? Think about what soldiers do and how they might be sent to a state to help do what soldiers do.

#2 — I agree with one of your answer choices. Think about what FEDERAL laws are that supersede state laws.

#3 — I don't agree with D. It seems to be talking in circles: the states would give up some of their power to determine what the fed laws are? Frankly, I don't see a really good choice here. Perhaps another tutor has better insight than I do regarding fed and state laws.

Answer 2

:( *sigh* so what do I do now? im clueless!

Answer 3

Frankly, in my opinion, these are more of the badly written questions and sets of answer choices that I've noticed students posting here. I wonder if the text is any good, since that's what questions and answer choices are based on. Is all this from Connections??

I'd contact the teacher and ask for <b>clear</b> explanations of everything — this chapter (or whatever) in the text; these particular questions; not to mention these weird answer choices.

I noticed the same type of thing regarding a history question recently. I wrote that the student needed to consult with the teacher. You can't be held responsible for errors in texts and tests.

Answer 4

IMO

1. D
2. B & E
3. I don't know what to tell you!!
