The answer is "representative": The United States government must guarantee each state a representative form of government.

Explanation for each option:

  • State: This option is incorrect. While each state has its own government, the U.S. Constitution does not guarantee a "state" form of government. Instead, it ensures that each state maintains a certain type of governance.

  • Federal: This option is incorrect. The term "federal" refers to the national government system of the United States, which is a union of states under a central government. The Constitution guarantees a representative form of government, not specifically a federal one, to each state.

  • Representative: This option is correct. Article IV, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution states, "The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government." A republican form of government is understood to be a representative democracy, where officials are elected to represent the people.

  • Democratic: This option is incorrect. While the United States is a democracy, the specific guarantee in the Constitution is for a "republican" form of government, which is a type of representative democracy. The term "democratic" is broader and not the specific term used in the Constitution.

The picture below has 3 normal curves plotted on the same set of axes. Compare the means of the 3 distributions. Compare the standard deviations of the 3 distributions. Explain your reasoning. The three distributions all have the same mean because each curve has the same center and the three distributions have the same standard deviation because the distance from each graph's mean to the transition point or inflection point is the same for each distribution. The three distributions have different values for the mean because each curve has a different center; but, on the other hand, the three distributions have the same standard deviation because the distance from each graph's mean to the transition point or inflection point is the same for each distribution. The three distributions have different values for the mean because each curve has a different center and the three distributions have different standard deviations because the distance from each graph's mean to the transition point or inflection point is different for each distribution.

A monologue is a long speech by one actor in a play or movie, or as part of a theatrical or broadcast program. Let's pretend you are the main character in your own play. In the play, you are getting ready to take your best friend to a play. The only problem is, your friend has never been to a theatre in their life and sometimes embarrasses you in public. Please read pages 12 and 13* in your TEXT BOOK and write a monologue (2 or 3 paragraphs in your own character's voice) explaining to your best friend how they should behave when you go to the show. Feel free to make up any scenarios you'd like. Have fun with this! Be specific.
