• Estimate the number of corn seeds Davis can plant in section 1.

Explain how you determined your estimate.

Use your estimate to determine the approximate number of corn

seeds Davis can plant in both sections. Show your work or explain

how you determined your answer.

72 seeds of corn in section one

Explanation:my estimate is simple.

I assumed 6 rows in a section., And in one row 4 portion.

And 3 seeds to be planted together.

So total is 3*4*6=72 .

So in any section , the number of seeds is approximately 72 to 84 if the number of rows increases to 7.

the first phase of the government’s plan for settlement was building the transcontinental railroad. the railroad provided a way to bring settlers and manufactured goods west and ship their agricultural and mining produce east. the transcontinental railroad was an essential artery for rapid development of the frontier.

the second phase of the government’s plan was a liberal land distribution policy that made it possible for many people to homestead. with these two key elements—transportation and cheap land—the government rapidly achieved its goal of persuading people to move west, settle on farms, and push back the frontier.
