Read the passage and then answer the question. In the third century BCE, the ancient Egyptians began growing a new type of wheat. It required more water than other types of wheat. To irrigate the new wheat, Egyptians built new canals to draw more water from the Nile River. This allowed them to successfully grow the new wheat and also charge a higher price for it.

Why would the Egyptians have charged a higher price for the new type of wheat?

There was a surplus of wheat.
Demand for wheat became lower.
Demand for water became higher.
The new canals increased production cost.

b) a state law could be declared illegal if it contradicted the constitution.

explanation:

the conflict of this case originated when james w. mcculloch, a cashier of the baltimore branch of the second bank of the united states that the congress had chartered in 1816, refused to pay a tax imposed by the maryland state.

in the case, the state of maryland appealed that the establishment of a second bank was unconstitutional since the constitution didn't say anything about granting that power to congress. however, the case determined that even if such right wasn't specifically stated in the constitution, it was part of the "implied powers" of the government enunciated in article i, section 8.

the case also eliminated maryland's legislation to impose taxes to a national bank, asserting that even though the states retained the power of taxation, the constitution's laws are supreme and can not be controlled by the states, therefore, if a state law contradicts the constitution, it should be declared illegal.
