Which term describes the combined system from the Virginia and New Jersey Plans?

The correct answer is the Connecticut Compromise. This term refers to the agreement reached during the Constitutional Convention in 1787 that created a bicameral legislature, combining elements from both the Virginia Plan, which favored representation based on population, and the New Jersey Plan, which called for equal representation for each state.

The Connecticut Compromise established a House of Representatives with representatives based on state populations, addressing the concerns of larger states, while also creating a Senate where each state would have equal representation, thus satisfying smaller states. This compromise was instrumental in shaping the legislative structure of the United States and ensuring a balance of power between states of different sizes.

Other terms listed do not encapsulate this specific agreement: the Grand Compromise is a more general term and does not specifically refer to the Connecticut Compromise; the Federal Resolution does not relate to this historical context; and the State Representation Act is not an established term used in the context of the founding documents or debates of the U.S. Constitution.
