Which accomplishment was the northwest ordinance unable to achieve? a: providing for public education b: forbidding slavery in the territory c: making plans for territories to become states d: giving women the right to vote

The correct answer is D, as the Northwest Ordinance was unable to give women the right to vote, since this issue was not addressed by this law.

The Northwest Ordinance was a law of the Congress of the Confederation of the United States. The ordinance was approved unanimously on July 13, 1787. The main effect of the ordinance was the creation of the Northwest Territory as the first organized territory of the United States of the region south of the Great Lakes north and west of the Ohio River, and east of the Mississippi River. On August 7, 1789, the Congress of the United States affirmed the Ordinance with slight changes established by the Constitution.

Possibly the most important legislation that was passed by the members of the Continental Congress apart from the Declaration of Independence, it established the precedence by which the United States expanded westward through North America by the admission of new states rather than by the expansion of existing states. The prohibition of slavery in the territory made the Ohio River the border between the free territories and the slave territories around the Appalachians and the Mississippi River.
