Answer 1

i honestly believe d is the best choice. the map shows how large an affect the sepoy rebellion had on the british rule. the other choices do have reasoning but arent really referred to by the map.

Answer 2

The correct answer is D. The Sepoy Rebellion was a major but unsuccessful threat to British rule

Step-by-step explanation:

Inference refers to the process of drawing a conclusion or idea through deduction and based on the details provided in a text. In the case of the text presented which is a map that shows the imperialism in India as a result of the control of Great Britain in the territory and the Sepoy Rebellion, the map shows the control of the British covered almost all the Indian territory and the control was achieved through different historical periods. On the other hand, the area of the Sepoy Rebellion is only in the north of the territory, which means it only covered a small section of the territory colonized. According to this, it can be inferred although the Sepoy Rebellion was important because it was a rebellion against the British rule it was unsuccessful as it did not cover the necessary territory to defeat the British rule or that "The Sepoy Rebellion was a major but unsuccessful threat to British rule".
