Answer:
Archaeologists use written sources to help them find sites where they will find arti- facts. Similarly, historians examine material culture to help them understand what they read. Anthropologists study the characteristics of past and present human communities through a variety of techniques. In doing so, they investigate and describe how different peoples of our world lived throughout history. To establish a relative time frame, geologists have arranged the rocks in a continuous sequence of chronostratigraphic units on a planetary scale, divided into eonothems, erathemes, systems, series and floors, based on stratigraphy, that is, on the study and interpretation of the strata, supported by major biological and geological events.

How Historians
Study the Past
Build on What You Know You may know where your parents or ancestors came from and some of the stories about them. Relatives and their stories help people understand their family history. Now learn what historians use to help them understand the past.
Understanding the Past
ESSENTIAL QUESTION What questions do historians ask to help them understand the past?
People investigate their family history to find out about their ancestors. In the process, however, they also find out about themselves. We study world history for the same reasons.
Why Study History? What has already happened to a person, a family, or a
society affects what will occur today and in the future. But history is much more than simply recounting and studying past events. Examining a historical event also involves studying a society’s culture, religion, politics, and economics.
When historians examine past events, they try to find patterns. They look for causes and effects that explain how and why events happened. They also try to understand why some ideas and traditions last and why others die out. Just as important, historians attempt to see the past through the eyes of the people who lived it. By doing so, historians gain greater insight into human nature and answer important historical questions.
Asking Historical Questions As historians study the past, they ask themselves questions like those below. These questions help historians compare different societies and draw conclusions about the past.
• How have groups or societies interacted, and what have been the results?
• How have leaders governed societies?
• How have belief systems developed and changed?
• How have societies dealt with differences among their people?
• How have societies tried to protect people’s security?
• How are societies similar and different?
Why do we study history?
The Historian’s Tools
ESSENTIAL QUESTION What methods do historians use to help them answer questions about what happened in the past? When you hang up a picture, you use a hammer to pound in the nail. Historians also use tools to do their job. These tools include primary sources, secondary sources, and oral history.
Primary Sources A primary source is something written or created by a person who witnessed a historical event. You will learn about an ancient primary source on the next page. Primary sources include letters, diaries, eyewitness articles, videotapes, speeches, and photographs. Artifacts, such as the human-made tools, are also primary sources.

How Knowledge of the Past Changes
ESSENTIAL QUESTION What steps do historians take as they answer historical questions?
Detectives use fingerprints and other evidence to solve crimes. Historians act as detectives too. They use evidence from primary, secondary, and oral sources.
Fact or Fiction? Historical evidence isn’t always as simple as a bloodstain at a crime
scene. Historians sometimes have more information than they can use when they try to answer a question. They must sort through all of the information and choose what’s most important and most trustworthy as evidence. In addition, sometimes what historians thought was true turns out to be false. For instance, one historian proved that the so-called mummy’s
curse was false. According to legend, the curse would kill anyone who entered the tomb of an ancient Egyptian ruler. Many people believed the curse had caused the death of English archaeologist Lord Carnarvon. He died suddenly in 1923, shortly after entering the tomb
of ancient Egyptian ruler “King Tut.” People believe that the other archaeologists who had entered the tomb between 1923 and 1926 would also die as a result of the curse. However, a historian later examined the archaeologists’ death records. Their average age at death was
70 years. The evidence did not support the existence of the mummy’s curse.
Drawing Conclusions The mummy’s curse was easy to disprove. But not all historical questions are so easily answered. Sometimes different historians arrive at different conclusions based on the same facts.

Now you write about how Cortes conquered the Aztecs. Write as many details from beginning to the end. Finally be sure and mention what the effects of this battle were for Spain and the Aztecs. Discuss what this area is presently called today. Finally, discuss how you feel about what happened and the consequences of this battle for Spain and the Aztec empire
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Hernan Cortez arrived in the Americas on March 4, 1519. He specifically arrived at the Yucatan Peninsula, in the Mexican territory. Five months later, on November 8th, 1519, he finally arrived at the center of the Aztec Empire: the great city of Tenochtitlan, the capital of the Aztecs.
Cortez realized that Spaniards alone, it was going to be impossible to defeat the mighty Aztec Army. That is why in 1521, Cortez made alliances with Native Tribes that were enemies to the Aztecas. Specifically, the Chollulans and the Tlaxcalteans.
On July 1, 1520, the Cortez army is defeated by the Aztecs in what is known as the "Sad Night." They had to retreat and plan another strategy. In that year, Emperor Cuithlahuac substitutes Moctezuma II, as the new ruler, but he suddenly died from smallpox. Cuáhutemoc became the Emperor. He was the last emperor of the Aztecs.
On August 13, 1521, the Aztec Army surrendered the city to Cortez. The Spaniards had conquered Tenochtitlan and killed Cuauhtémoc.
This area of Tenochtitlan, today is downtown Mexico City. The ruins of the pyramids can be visited next to the main square(Zócalo in Spanish), and the Cathedral.
The consequences of the conquest were meaningful. Never before seen diseases brought by Spaniards almost wipe out 80% of the Aztecs population. Diseases such as smallpox, chickenpox, malaria, cholera, and influenza.
Spaniards also evangelized the Aztecs into the religious teachings of Catholicism.

Which of the following factors led to the increase of workers's buying
power?
Work hours decreased, providing workers with more leisure time to be
consumers.
Increased productivity caused a surplus of goods, which lowered their price
Women entered the workforce, increasing the number of consumers in the
country
Answer:
Increased productivity caused a surplus of goods, which lowered their price
The factors that increased workers' purchasing power include higher productivity, which created a surplus of goods and lowered their price.
What is meant by labor productivity?Real output per labor hour, which is the unit used to define labor productivity, is how growth in labor productivity is calculated. Higher productivity led to a surplus of goods, which lowered their cost.
Without corresponding advancements in technology or skills, increasing the labor force will not increase productivity. If less skilled workers were employed, they wouldn't be able to produce a particular level of output per hour.
To increase worker productivity, three key factors are required: investing in and saving for physical capital, new technology, and human capital.
Therefore, the correct answer is option b) Increased productivity caused a surplus of goods, which lowered their price.

Answer:
$201.65
Explanation:
As of the time of writing this (Nov 1st, 2020) you can purchase the following items at these prices. A pair of 6 sided dice 19mm would cost you roughly $8.65.
