Sandra es bióloga y se dedica a estudiar los árboles, por eso anualmente mide todos los árboles del jardín botánico. El año pasado el pino medía 7,35 metros. Sandra dice que desde entonces ha crecido 15 centímetros. a.- ¿Cuánto ha crecido el pino desde entonces? Expresa el resultado en metros b.- ¿Cuánto mide el pino ahora? Expresa el resultado en centímetros.
Answer:
a. El pino ha crecido 0,15 metros.
b. El pino mide 750 centímetros.
Explanation:
En el punto a hay que convertir los 15 centímetros que crece el pino a metros. Para eso, podemos utilizar una regla de tres simple tomando como valor de referencia que 1 metro equivale a 100 cm.
15cm x1m = 0,15 m
100cm
Como se puede ver, se divide el valor de los centímetros entre 100 para obtener el resultado.
En el punto b debemos sumarle a los 7, 35 metros los 0,15 metros que creció este año y convertirlo a centímetros.
7,35m + 0,15m = 7,50 m
Para convertir los 7,50m a centímetros tenemos que hacer el proceso inverso al que hicimos en el punto a, es decir, que debemos multiplicar por 100.
7,50m x 100 = 750 cm

A
Georgia’s refusal to ratify the 13th Amendment
B
Georgia’s refusal to ratify the 14th Amendment
C
Atlanta’s refusal to accept a Freedmen’s Bureau
D
Milledgeville’s refusal to allow Republican delegates at the constitutional convention
Answer:
A. Georgia’s refusal to ratify the 13th Amendment.
Explanation:
A state legislature refers to the legislative body of each states of the federal government and are saddled with the responsibility of making or enacting laws. Thus, the state legislatures is one of the body of governance that has the power or authority to ratify (approve, confirm or give consent) a proposed amendment to the Constitution by getting three-quarter of the states to vote in support.
The 13th Amendment of 1865 was an amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America which formally abolished slavery and involuntary servitude except as a punishment for a crime committed by a convict within the jurisdiction.
Hence, Georgia’s refusal to ratify the 13th Amendment was an action that resulted in Georgia being placed under military rule during Reconstruction. The refusal of Georgia to ratify the 13th Amendment was mainly because its economy was highly dependent on slaves for manpower (labor force).
Consequently, Georgia was the last state to be formally admitted into the Union.
