What did immigrants to new york first see when they came to america? a. the golden gate bridge b. the sears tower c. the washington monument d. the statue of liberty

The correct answer is option D. "The Statue Of Liberty". Statue of Liberty is a monument located on Liberty Island in New York Harbor, with a height of 305 ft (including the pedestal and foundation). These characteristics make it the most visible monument in New York, and since most immigrants come in boat, it is even easier to spot.

D the statute of liberty

Explanation:

b) a state law could be declared illegal if it contradicted the constitution.

explanation:

the conflict of this case originated when james w. mcculloch, a cashier of the baltimore branch of the second bank of the united states that the congress had chartered in 1816, refused to pay a tax imposed by the maryland state.

in the case, the state of maryland appealed that the establishment of a second bank was unconstitutional since the constitution didn't say anything about granting that power to congress. however, the case determined that even if such right wasn't specifically stated in the constitution, it was part of the "implied powers" of the government enunciated in article i, section 8.

the case also eliminated maryland's legislation to impose taxes to a national bank, asserting that even though the states retained the power of taxation, the constitution's laws are supreme and can not be controlled by the states, therefore, if a state law contradicts the constitution, it should be declared illegal.
