Which of the following is not true about the korean war?
a. japan had control of korea prior to world war ii.
b. the war started when north korea invaded south korea.
c. the soviet union attempted to establish a democratic government in north korea.
d. china became involved in the war after un forces advanced into north korea.

The correct answer is C. The Soviet Union didn't attempt to establish a democratic government in North Korea, but a communist one.

Explanation:

The Soviet Union did not intend to create a democratic state, but a communist state that would rival Japan and the United States in control of Asia and the Pacific Ocean. For this reason, it encouraged the creation of North Korea as a totalitarian communist state, which tried to unify the peninsula in 1950 through the Korean War, supported by the Soviet Union and China.

1.3x - 2 - (3.3x + 5) = 2x + 1

1.3x - 2 - 3.3x - 5 = 2x + 1

-2x - 7 = 2x + 1

-7 = 4x + 1

-8 = 4x

x = -2

your answer would be (a)
