Answer:

The answer to this would be the second option.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Missouri Compromise of 1820 established the latitude 36°30′ as the northern limit for slavery to be legal in the territories of the west. As part of this compromise, Maine (formerly a part of Massachusetts) was admitted as a free state. Hope this helped :)
