Answer: HIV/AIDS originated in Africa in the early 20th century and is a major public health concern and cause of death in many African countries. AIDS rates vary dramatically although the majority of cases are concentrated in Southern Africa. Although the continent is home to about 15.2 percent of the world's population,[1] more than two-thirds of the total infected worldwide – some 35 million people – were Africans, of whom 15 million have already died.[2] Sub-Saharan Africa alone accounted for an estimated 69 percent of all people living with HIV[3] and 70 percent of all AIDS deaths in 2011.[4] In the countries of sub-Saharan Africa most affected, AIDS has raised death rates and lowered life expectancy among adults between the ages of 20 and 49 by about twenty years.[2] Furthermore, the life expectancy in many parts of Africa is declining, largely as a result of the HIV/AIDS epidemic with life-expectancy in some countries reaching as low as thirty-four years.[5]
Triangle JKL undergoes a dilation centered at the origin. The result is triangle JKL'. Which rule describes the dilation? A) (x, y) → (2x, 2y) B) (x, y) → (4x, 4y) C) (x, y) → ( 1 4 x, 1 4 y) D) (x, y) → (− 1 2 x, − 1 2 y)
Answer:
1st answer is wrong
Explanation:
The rule that describes the dilation is (x, y) → ( 1/4 x, 1/4 y). Then the correct option is C.
What is dilation?Dilation means the changing of the size of the object without changing the shape. The size of the object may be increased or decreased based on the scale factor.
Triangle JKL undergoes a dilation centered at the origin.
The result is triangle J'K'L'.
The points J(0, 4), K(8, 4), and L(4, -4). And the points J'(0, 1), K'(2, 1), and L'(1, -1)
Then the scale factor will be given as
[tex]\rm Scale \ factor = \dfrac{J'(0, 1)}{J(0, 4)} = \dfrac{1}{4}\\\\\\Scale \ factor = \dfrac{K'(2, 1)}{K(8, 4)} = \dfrac{1}{4}\\\\\\Scale \ factor = \dfrac{L'(1,-1)}{L(4, -4)} = \dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]
Then the scale factor is 1/4.

Do you think any of the philosophers or the religious leaders were abolitionists or advocated for the end of enslavement?
Answer:
Black and white abolitionists in the first half of the nineteenth century waged a biracial assault against slavery. Their efforts proved to be extremely effective. Abolitionists focused attention on slavery and made it difficult to ignore. They heightened the rift that had threatened to destroy the unity of the nation even as early as the Constitutional Convention.
Although some Quakers were slaveholders, members of that religious group were among the earliest to protest the African slave trade, the perpetual bondage of its captives, and the practice of separating enslaved family members by sale to different masters.
As the nineteenth century progressed, many abolitionists united to form numerous antislavery societies. These groups sent petitions with thousands of signatures to Congress, held abolition meetings and conferences, boycotted products made with slave labor, printed mountains of literature, and gave innumerable speeches for their cause. Individual abolitionists sometimes advocated violent means for bringing slavery to an end.
Although black and white abolitionists often worked together, by the 1840s they differed in philosophy and method. While many white abolitionists focused only on slavery, black Americans tended to couple anti-slavery activities with demands for racial equality and justice.

Speaker 1: A state has the right to overrule an act passed by Congress. After all, the
national government is supposed to share power with the states.
Speaker 2: I believe that you are wrong. The states do share power with the national
government, but the Constitution says the national government has
supremacy.
These speakers are debating an issue that eventually became known as the -
A Monroe Doctrine

C Missouri Compromise
D Three-Fifths Compromise
Answer:

Hi there!
I can understand how school can be very difficult this year for all of us including me, here are some things that helped me!
1. Keep a routine.
Keep a schedule. Wake up in the morning, take a shower, eat some breakfast, head to class.
2. Have a desk.
Sitting in your bed all day may be comfy but is not going to make you very productive.
3. Turn some lights on.
Listen I love the dark and find it relaxing but all its going to do is make you sleepy. Try opening your blinds for some natural lighting.
4. Have a nice enviorment.
Nobody likes to be in a dirty area. Try to keep your room clean and maybe add some decorations! Plants add a nice natural touch!
I hope this helps! Good luck :)

What truths about God, life, and people are those stories (Genesis 1-3) trying to convey? What were the main points of the stories in those chapters?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached we can say the following.
The truths about God, life, and people that those stories (Genesis 1-3) trying to convey were the power of the almighty God that created everything, including life on planet Earth, including humans. And on the 7th day, he rested. Then, Genesis explains the human's sin and how men and women were banished from the Garden of Eden or Paradise.
What were the main points of the stories in those chapters?
The main point of chapter 1 is the story of how God created the heavens, planest, the Earth, and everything that exists. The main point of chapter 2 is how God created man first, and then, from a man's rib, God created a woman. The main point of chapter 3 is how God banished man and woman for the sin they committed in the Garden of Eden.
Of course, the stories reflected on the Bible -in this case, the Old Testament- are metaphors aimed for the reader to have a better comprehension of the symbolistic idea of the beginning or the creation story.
