Yes, your answer is correct. According to the Declaration of Independence, governments get their just power from the consent of the governed. This means that the power of the government should come from the consent or approval of the people it governs. So, when the people give their consent or agreement to be governed by a particular government, that government then has the authority to exercise power over them.
