Answer 4

@KirbyLegs My lesson says this

Answer 5

The American and French forces surrounded the British at the port of Yorktown, Virginia. The Americans attacked by land. The French used their navy to attack and blockade the port. The British were outnumbered and were unable to retreat. The commander of the British army was General Cornwallis. Having nowhere to go and no way to get new supplies, Cornwallis surrendered. The Revolutionary War was over, and the Americans had won their independence.

Answer 7

Ah my bad.
D directly refers to "supplies," not helping out

It is B
