Answer 1

The statement that best explains how the conflict over the Tariff of 1828 was resolved is:

Henry Clay proposed a compromise tariff that eventually eased tensions.

The Tariff of 1828, often referred to as the "Tariff of Abominations" by its opponents, led to significant conflict, particularly in South Carolina, which attempted to nullify the tariff. However, Henry Clay's compromise tariff in 1833 gradually reduced the tariff rates and helped to ease the tensions between the federal government and the state of South Carolina.
