Explanation:

Question 1

The US needed Mississippi River access for western farmers to transport goods to markets. Option A is about Britain treaties (not river access), C is navy expansion (unrelated), D is French taxes (not relevant). So B is correct.

Lewis and Clark Expedition’s main goal was to explore the Louisiana Territory. A is about British troops (not their goal), C is forcing Natives (incorrect), D is national bank (unrelated). So B is correct.

Washington wanted Jefferson and Hamilton for diverse viewpoints (they had opposing ideas: Jefferson - agrarian, Hamilton - federalist). A is wrong (different ideas), C: Congress didn't require that, D: they weren't military leaders. So B is correct.

Answer:

B. For western farmers to ship goods to market
