Which was a "pull" factor leading to european migration to asia in the 16th and 17th centuries?
chinese government's policy of isolation from the west

search by expelled spanish jews for a new homeland

silver discovered in south america

overcrowding and lack of jobs in mother countries

The correct answer is "Silver discovered in South America".

Explanation:

Throughout the 16th and 17th centuries many countries including Spain, France, Great Britain and Portugal had a fiercely competitive colonization of Southeast Asia. One "pull" factor that lead to this migration was the boost of power obtained by the discovery of the presence of silver in South America. This enhance the search for more goods in other countries and Asia colonization efforts continued in 17th and 18th centuries, particularly in the maritime routes.

the intolerable acts were punitive laws passed by the british parliament in 1774 after the boston tea party. in great britain, these laws were referred to as the coercive acts.

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
