boycott taxed British goods
send a message to King George
listed their grievances
go to war with Britain

Answer 1

The First Continental Congress decided to boycott British goods, send a message to King George, and list grievances against British policies. Option b,c,d.

Step-by-step explanation:

The First Continental Congress convened in 1774 as a response to the Intolerable Acts imposed by the British government. The Congress decided on several measures, which did not include declaring independence or going to war with Britain at that time. The three key actions taken by the First Continental Congress were:

Boycott taxed British goods: The Congress advocated for economic resistance through the Association of 1774, urging colonists to avoid the use of British goods as a form of protest.

Send a message to King George: The delegates decided to send a petition to King George III, seeking redress for their grievances and hoping for reconciliation.

List their grievances: The Congress compiled a list of grievances to formally articulate the colonists' objections to British policies and acts.

These actions represented an effort to assert rights and resolve conflicts without immediate recourse to war.

So Option b, c, d is correct.
