Solution Steps

Step 1: Partition the rectangle

Divide the rectangle into 3 rows and 7 columns, creating a grid of 21 squares.

Step 2: Shade a composite unit

Shade any group of 3 connected squares. This visually represents a small part of the total area.

Step 3: Calculate the area

Multiply the length (7 yards) by the width (3 yards): 7 * 3 = 21 square yards.

Final Answer

21 square yards

Which of the following best describes attitudes toward Asian immigrants in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries? White people feared Asian immigrants because Japanese and Chinese Americans were often disloyal to the U.S. government. Asian immigrants were welcomed to the United States and swiftly became financially successful. Asian immigrants got along well with White people but not with Mexican Americans or African Americans. Asian immigrants were disliked by White people who feared competition for jobs, and several acts of Congress sought to restrict immigration and naturalization of Asian people.
