Answer choices: a & c

The two effects of the  Louisiana Purchase on the United States are:

  • It led to a westward migration of people looking for new lands to farm.
  • It led to the growth of US trade along the Mississippi waterway.

The western half of the Mississippi River basin was purchased from France in 1803 for less than three cents per acre, totaling 828,000 square miles (2,144,520 square kilometers), making it the largest land deal in American history.

The purchase doubled the size of the US, strengthened it materially and strategically, fueled westward expansion, and established the federal Constitution's doctrine of implied powers.  

Therefore the correct options are a and c.
