What does this cartoon have to say about the Philippines'
role in American imperialism?
Do you feel the US was right
to try and retain the
Philippines? Explain.

In this 1899 political cartoon, Uncle Sam is
entangled around a tree labeled "Imperialism"
trying to subdue a bucking mule labeled
"Philippines" while a figure representing Spain
walks off in the horizon.

hehe hehe hehe he he hehe hehe hehe hehe

a. "how old man winter was driven back” and “ormuzd and arimanes"

8 - (2a + 7) = a + 40     distribute/multiply - into (2a + 7)

8 - 2a - 7 = a + 40

1 - 2a = a + 40       add 2a on both sides

1 = 3a + 40         subtract 40 on both sides

-39 = 3a       divide 3 on both sides

-13 = a

[proof]

8 - (2a + 7) = a + 40

8 - (2(-13) + 7) = -13 + 40

8 - (-26 + 7) = 27

8 - (-19) = 27

8 + 19 = 27

27 = 27
