Answer 1

The correct answer is "Slaves used to determine representation Taxation of exports."

The option that belongs to the empty box is "Slaves used to determine representation Taxation of exports."

We are referring to the important decision known as the Connecticut Compromise or the Great Compromise of 1787. After so much debate, the representants of the small and large states reached an agreement to define the kind of representation each state would have in the new Constitution of the United States and the representation in Congress. The agreement created the lower chamber of Congress or the House of Representatives. The state population would determine the representation of each state in this chamber. The agreement also created the upper chamber with two Senators per state.

Answer 2

The missing item to complete the above is Slaves used to determine representation.

The Three Fifths Compromise:

• Was an agreement between Northern and Southern states that every 5 enslaved people would be counted as 3 people for the purpose of representation
• Came about as a result of Northern states arguing that Southern states should not count enslaved people as they did not have the right to vote.

The Three-Fifth Compromise ensured that even though enslaved people could not vote, southern states could benefit from them in terms of political representation.

In conclusion, the Three-Fifths Compromise meant that enslaved people were used to determine representation.
