Answer 1

The statements that best describe how the Northwest Ordinance established a method for settlement are:

• It provided a procedure whereby new states could become part of the United States
• It established laws that gave basic rights to settlers

The other statements are not accurate. The Northwest Ordinance did not dictate that new territories would become part of an existing state nor did it ensure that Native Americans living in the territory would become settlers or citizens.
