Explanation:

Question 5

• Analyze each option:
• Option (1): The passage doesn't talk about obeying past treaties. Eliminate.
• Option (2): The passage is about removing Natives, not working together. Eliminate.
• Option (3): The passage says relocation will help them assimilate, not that they agreed. Eliminate.
• Option (4): The passage claims relocation helps whites (advance in population, etc.) and Natives (pursue happiness, cast off savage habits). This matches.

• Recall Jackson's Indian Removal policy:
• Option (1): Trail of Tears was the forced relocation of Natives after Jackson's message. Correct.
• Option (2): Annexation of Texas is about Texas, not Indian Removal. Eliminate.
• Option (3): Dred Scott decision is about slavery, not Indian Removal. Eliminate.
• Option (4): Grange Movement is about farmers, not related. Eliminate.

Answer:

(4) The relocation of Native Americans will assist both them and white settlers.
