In the late 1800’s, cattle brought from Texas increased the beef cattle population from 137,000 to 1,250,000 in New Mexico. What was the primary reason why such a large number of cattle were transferred to New Mexico? a. Cattle sold for a greater price in New Mexico, than in Texas. b.

b) a state law could be declared illegal if it contradicted the constitution.

explanation:

the conflict of this case originated when james w. mcculloch, a cashier of the baltimore branch of the second bank of the united states that the congress had chartered in 1816, refused to pay a tax imposed by the maryland state.

in the case, the state of maryland appealed that the establishment of a second bank was unconstitutional since the constitution didn't say anything about granting that power to congress. however, the case determined that even if such right wasn't specifically stated in the constitution, it was part of the "implied powers" of the government enunciated in article i, section 8.

the case also eliminated maryland's legislation to impose taxes to a national bank, asserting that even though the states retained the power of taxation, the constitution's laws are supreme and can not be controlled by the states, therefore, if a state law contradicts the constitution, it should be declared illegal.

explanation:

nations must cooperate to bring about and maintain world peace.

nations must not wage wars or commit war crimes in a desire to control other nations.
