Question

read the second paragraph from \money to us is of no value.\we know that these settlers are poor, or they would never have ventured to live in a country which has been in continual trouble ever since they crossed the ohio. divide, therefore, this large sum of money which you have offered us among these people: give to each also a proportion of what you say you would give to us annually (over and above this very large sum of money), and we are persuaded they would most readily accept of it in lieu of the lands you sold them. if you add, also, the great sums you must expend in raising and paying armies with a view to force us to yield you our country, you will certainly have more than sufficient for the purpose of repaying these settlers for all their labor and their improvements.which is the central idea of this paragraph?○ the white settlers are poor and in need of us government assistance.○ the us government should pay the settlers for their service in the military.○ the tribes want to share the money given to them by the us government with the poor settlers.○ the us government should pay the settlers to move elsewhere, not the tribes.

Explanation:

The paragraph argues that the US government should use the funds (including what was offered to the tribes and military spending) to compensate the poor settlers instead of the tribes, so the settlers will accept the payment in place of the lands. This matches the last option.

Answer:

The US government should pay the settlers to move elsewhere, not the tribes.
