When Congress finally adopted the Articles of Confederation, they agreed that western lands would be a)Held off from settlement for 10 years following the end of the American Revolution.
b) Divided proportionally among the states based on population at the end of the American Revolution.
c)Divided equally among the states at the end of the American Revolution.
d)Ceded to the new federal government to organize and sell as it liked.

D.

Explanation:

Article of Confederation was the article that was laid by the States after it declared independence from Britishers. The article was not not perfect but to amend it required urgency to prevent other countries from foreign invasion.

The article was read out by Franklin before the Congress on July 21, 1775. The claims of ratifying were holdout by Maryland, Delaware and New Jersey because they wanted other states to first give up their western land claims, which was agreed by all states by March 1, 1781.

So, according to the Article of Confederation, all states agreed to cede their lands to the federal government to organize it and sell accordingly.

Thus the correct answer is option D.

i think the answer is c, rivers.

explanation:

sometimes, borders fall along natural boundaries like rivers or mountain ranges. for example, the boundary between france and spain follows the crest of the pyrenees mountains. for part of its length, the boundary between the united states and mexico follows a river called the rio grande. the borders of four countries divide africa’s lake chad: niger, chad, cameroon, and nigeria.

when studying cause and effect, historians usually group the causes into different categories. for example, cultural causes reflect how a society’s literature and art convey the way the society saw itself in relation to the rest of the world. another resource that historians use to understand society is pop culture, which tells them the trends and ideas that are preferred by the common people. when studying cause and effect, it’s important to remember multiple causation, or the idea that an effect could have several causes and vice versa.  

the correct option is “cultural causes” since art and literature are related to the culture of a place. culture is determined by literature, art, music.

the correct option is “pop culture” since it reflects the likes and ideas of common people whereas the rest of the options do not focus on common people.  

the correct option is “multiple causation” since it refers to the idea that events are caused by multiple reasons, not just a single one.
