The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The type of economy that this statement describes is Capitalism.
In Capitalism, individuals own businesses and freely choose what to buy and sell in free markets with little government interference.
Just to make a comparison, in Socialism, the state is the owner of the means of production and they establish what to produce, when to produce it, at what price, and the salary of the workers.
That is not the case in Capitalism, where people can invest their money to make a profit and the harder they work, the better their results.
Capitalism operates in a free market, where there can be as many competitors as they can enter, and consumers have many elections to choose from.
Refer to the two passages.
Source 1:
"But though men, when they enter into society, give up the equality, liberty, and executive power they had in the state of nature, into the hands of the society, to be so far disposed of by the legislative, as the good of the society shall require; yet it being only with an intention in every one the better to preserve himself, his liberty and property; . . . the power of the society, or legislative constituted by them, can never be supposed to extend farther, than the common good; but is obliged to secure every one's property, by providing against those three defects above mentioned, that made the state of nature so unsafe and uneasy. And so whoever has the legislative or supreme power of any commonwealth, is bound to govern by established standing laws, promulgated and known to the people, and not by extemporary decrees; by indifferent and upright judges, who are to decide controversies by those laws; and to employ the force of the community at home, only in the execution of such laws, or abroad to prevent or redress foreign injuries, and secure the community from inroads and invasion. And all this to be directed to no other end, but the peace, safety, and public good of the people.”
Excerpt from "Second Treatise of Government,” an Enlightenment writing by John Locke, 1690
Source 2:
"That all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; that, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government . . .”
Excerpt from the Declaration of Independence, a fundamental document of the American Revolution, 1776

b) Governments and citizens check one another’s power.

Describe the methods/modes of trade you would use: land, sea, air? Think about how you would seek out trade partners and get your goods where they need to go? Write a paragraph explaining your method of trade, how you would find trade partners and how you would transport your goods.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The methods or modes of trade that I would use would be the three of them: land, sea, air. Because every method serves a different purpose, depending on the goods that are going to be traded and the place that I need them to export. It could be a close country or a faraway nation.
I would seek out trade partners taking into consideration my needs as a nation and on the other hand, taking into consideration the goods that my country produces and the raw materials to produce them.
I would have negotiations with other nations to reach an agreement that could benefit both in order to start and maintain proper trade.
And depending on the goods I am going to trade, I would pick the right kind of transportation: airplane cargo, ship, or train/truck.

If the Supreme Court never reversed its decision in Plessy v. Ferguson and did not hear the Brown v Board of Education case,how would our community be different ?
Answer:
White communities and the communities of colored people would be going to different or separate schools entirely.
Explanation:
In the case of Plessy V Ferguson in 1896. The Supreme court ruled that school segregation based on race was lawful. In as much the facilities are the same.
However, in 1956, in the case of Brown v. Board of Education, the Supreme Court reversed the ruling of Plessy V Ferguson and ruled that segregation of children in public schools based on race was unconstitutional.
Hence, If the Supreme Court never reversed its decision in Plessy v. Ferguson and did not hear the Brown v Board of Education case, our community be would be having "White communities and the communities of colored people going to different or separate schools entirely."
One major reason the United States Senate refused to approve the Treaty of Versailles after World War I was that many senators?
Answer:
Senators were unsure about the implications this would bring to the United States in relation to relations with foreign countries.
Explanation:
As you may already know, the Versailles Treaty was the peace treaty established after the First World War. This treaty allowed the winning nations to establish very heavy reprisals for the losing nations, especially Germany, which fell victim to extremely radical policies.
The nature of this treaty worried many American senators. That's because they believed that such harsh policies could damage the US's relations with losing countries and even with other countries.

How did the Gettysburg address and the Emancipation Proclamation change the focus and people’s perspective of the Civil War?
Question 2 options:
It made the war strictly about secession and holding the Union together.
They gave the North a moral high ground by freeing the slaves and fighting for the sake of preserving freedom and democracy.
These documents redefined America's government structure for when the war ends.
They made the Union focus their efforts on an offensive strategy to bring a quick end to the war.
Answer:
I believe it’s number 2
Explanation:
Before the Gettysburg Address and the emancipation proclamation, the war was simply about the South’s succession from the Union. This address gave the war another purpose...freeing slaves. This obviously outraged the south as many of them were slave owners and their way of life depended on slaves. Slave ownership is disgusting to us now, but back then it wasn’t. When Europeans came to the Americas, they even had to come up with a reason to disregard their religion to use slaves, which led to the idea that those with darker colored skin were somehow lesser than those with lighter skin. This is also interesting since until the Portuguese started their trading post empire in the Indian Ocean, and Europe started colonizing the Americas, Europeans were behind the rest of the world economically. The Colombian exchange set into motion this entire idea that darker skin was worse than lighter skin. Anyway, sorry for the history lesson!

Look at these maps from the 2008 C and 2012 presidential elections. In the space provided, note the differences and similarities between
the two maps. Are certain regions more Democratic and some more Republican? What other interesting points do you recognize about the maps?
Answer:
The west coast always seems to be democratic, a good portion of upper east coast seemed to stay democratic, the majority of the southern states are republican, a lot of the mountain region states tend to be republican, a good portion of the Midwest is democratic, and I noticed that the number of electoral votes per state changed (some got more and some lost votes)
Explanation:
I can read maps.
Answer:
There are very few differences between the two maps. Both show that the Northeast, Midwest, and West Coast are blue, which means these states voted for Barack Obama in both elections. The South, the Great Plains, and the Rocky Mountain regions, however, are red in both elections, meaning these states were won by the Republican candidate. In the 2012 map, Barack Obama won almost the exact same states as in the 2008 election. The only states that voted differently are Indiana and North Carolina.
