You're a part of a club that wants to create a booth at a fair to raise funds. Which economic system would you use to decide what booth to create, how to set it up, and who should get the money it raises? Use a paragraph of not less than five sentences to explain your answer.'

Answers

In my opinion, the booth should be organized following the model of an anonymous company, because the stand has a common objective and not an individual one.

Therefore, the constitution of the same should be equal in terms of expenses, and the same should happen with the profits. If a member could not contribute the same amount as their partners, his profit should decrease.

All members would be responsible for the booth to the extent they have participation, which would be marked by the money they contributed to create the booth.

Governments and countries use economic systems to distribute resources, trade products, and services. They are used to manage labor,  physical resources,  entrepreneurs, capital, and information resources, which are the five components of production.

The Market Economic System is used for the given scenario to decide the booth creation and fund-raising activities.

Market Economic Systems:
Because our club and I would be making our own decisions, we would choose the market economy system.

I'd be able to tell what kind of booth I want to build, how to set it up, and who should be the money treasury.

This is similar to how the market economic system can decide what commodities to produce, how to generate them, and who obtains jobs.The other systems:
I wouldn't be able to state what I think about the booth if it weren't for the Command market system.

Even if I didn't agree, an instructor would tell me how to build the booth.

This is similar to the Command system in that the government determines what the economy wants and needs.

So, if I had to choose what type of booth to build, how to put it up, and who should receive the funds raised, I would choose the market economy system.

In what way did industrialization affect the fighting in World War I? A) Trains were used for the first time in modern warfare. B) Mass-produced weapons caused a larger number of deaths than in previous conflicts. C) An economic depression caused a shortage of weapons along the Western Front in France. D) Aircraft carriers allowed planes to strike deep within enemy territory in areas far from land bases.

Answers

The correct answer is:

A) and B).

Mass production allowed weapons to be made faster than ever before, including new ones such as moveable machine guns, choline gas, flamethrowers, zeppelins, and torpedoes. At the same time, vehicles such as tanks, planes, and cars were also mass produced, and trench railways were a military adaptation of the railway technology to the problem of keeping soldiers supplied during the static trench warfare phase of World War I.

Answer:

B) Mass-produced weapons caused a larger number of deaths than in previous conflicts.

Explanation:

Industrialization caused the development of the war industry. Mass production of weaponry gave the country's armies more options for lethal attacks. As a result, the number of deaths was much higher than in previous wars. It is noteworthy that the war industry developed mainly in the US, which became the largest supplier of weapons to European countries.

The United States’ annexation of the Philippines after the Spanish-American War was an example of what? A Democracy B Imperialism C Diplomacy D Monarchy

Answers

The main reason was B) Imperialism. They wanted a naval base and coaling station in the “Far East” so the United States would have the ability to commit a larger naval force in East Asian waters and have more say on the European and Japanese rush to divide up the territory and trade in that part of the world. Also it was because a desire for commercial opportunities in Asia, concern that the Filipinos were incapable of self-rule, and fear that if the United States did not take control of the islands, another power (such as Germany or Japan) might do so. The answer to sum up was more power and control at trading.

Why are the conclusions drawn about voter sociology sometimes inaccurate

Answers

i would think becouse not all votes are counted toward whatever everyone is voteing for  

There are many reasons why conclusions drawn about voter sociology might sometimes be inaccurate. One of the problems with studying voters is that of samples. Samples, even when random, are sometimes biased. Moreover, depending on how high voter turnout is, samples might not reflect the reality of all society. The problem of turnout also makes it difficult for the studies to be replicated, which is a problem considering that these conclusions are usually based upon a variety of studies conducted.

How do Islamic terrorists justify their violent actions?They believe they have "just cause."They demonstrate the evils of Western culture.They don't justify their actions.They state they are necessary to achieve world domination.

Answers

The correct answer is A) They believe they have a "just cause."

Islamic terrorists justify their violent actions because they believe they have a "just cause."

Every act of terrorism of Islamic sects is done “in the name of Allah”. That justifies their actions. Islam people who commit those terrorist attacks are not afraid to die. That is why the attacks have horrible consequences. They know they are going to die and they are proud to do it because it is in the name of Allah, so it is justified and is for a “good cause.”

Since the very beginning of the conflict with Israel, Islam is fighting a “sacred war”, respecting the words stated in the Qur’an. They fight against the domination of the western countries and to defend their occupied territories.

how were slavery, equal protection under the law, and voting right for black men addressing following the civil war

Answers

After the American Civil War (1861-65), the US Congress passed a series of Acts such as...

the creation of the Freedmen's Bureau  which was a War Department agency for assisting freed slaves in obtaining jobs, food, health care, fair treatment, and education;the Civil Rights Act of 1866 which affirmed that all citizens were equally protected by the law; several Reconstruction Acts which gave former male slaves the right to vote and hold public office;

The Congress also passed the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constituion which made African-Americans citizens, guaranteed their right to vote and protected American citizens from discriminatory state laws.


The 14th Amendment to the US Constitution,ratified in 1868,granted citizenship to all persons born or naturalized in the United States,including former slaves and guaranteed all citizens equal protection of the laws.

One of the three amendments passed during the Reconstruction era abolished slavery and established civil and legal rights for black Americans.

But many Northerners got very angry when the newly elected southern state legislatures,dominated by former Confederate leaders,enacted black codes ,which were repressive laws that that strictly regulated the behaviour of black citizens and effectively kept them dependent on white planters.

the president would like to use more money to fight terrorism. To do so, he wants to raise income taxes. He needs to ask someone in Congress to submit a bill increasing the income tax. Which house of Congress must start this off?______Where is it addressed?(Constitution Article and Section)

Answers

Congress—and in particular, the House of Representatives—is invested with the “power of the purse,” the ability to tax and spend public money for the national government.

Answer:

1. The House of Representatives

2. It is addressed the U.S. Constitution, Article I, section 7, clause 1

Explanation:

The House of Representatives, the lower chamber of Congress, is the one invested with the power to introduce bills involving taxes or tariffs. Once this house begins this process, the Senate can approve, reject or amend the tax bill just like it would do with any other legislation. If the bill is approved by both chambers, then it is sent to the President for signature.

The House of Representatives' ability to submit bills regarding tax is addressed in the U.S. Constitution, Article I, section 7, clause 1:  “All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives, but the Senate may propose or concur with amendments as on other Bills.”

what did the rejection of the league of nations the higher tariffs imposed by the fordney mc number act and the emergency quota act all point to during the early 1920

Answers

The refusal to join the League of Nations, the raise of the tariffs to imported goods by the Fordney-Mc Number Act and the Emergency Quota Act all point to an increasing isolationist policy from the US (mainly the Congress) in the early 20's.

The League of Nations was a precursor to what nowadays is the UN. It was created after WWI as a way to prevent new wars through a mechanism of collective security. However, its efficacy was severely damaged when the US decided not to join it.

The Fordney-Mc Number Act enforced an increase on the tariffs applied to imported goods from other countries. The objective of the Act was to protect domestic industries and it demonstrated that the US was unwilling to open its market and to enter in stronger trade relations with Europe.

The Emergency Quota Act established a limit in the number of immigrants that could arrive at the US. It mainly affected further immigration from European countries which was soaring because of the economic crisis post WWI.

Who has became Britain’s prime minister in 1757 affected the outcome of the war in America between the British and French

1. Benjamin Franklin

2. James Wolfe

3.Louis de Montcalm

4. William Pitt

Answers

It’s William Pittsburgh

William Pitt became Britain's Prime Minister in 1757 and greatly affected the outcome of the war in America between the British and French. The correct option is 4. William Pitt.

During the Seven Years' War, which included the conflict known as the French and Indian War in North America, William Pitt rose to leadership within the British government. Recognizing North America as a critical battleground, Pitt's strategic vision involved a massive deployment of British regulars and colonial militiamen, totaling about 45,000 troops. This force was supported by British naval superiority, which established blockades to restrict French reinforcements and trade, weakening both the French military position and their alliances with Native American tribes. Pitt's ability to amass such resources was due in part to offering subsidies to the colonies for their war efforts. This strategic approach, along with large investments in military spending, paved the way for British victories in crucial battles such as the capture of Quebec in 1759, ultimately leading to the British triumph in North America.
