Consider the market for pens. Suppose that the number of students with an allergy to pencil erasers increases, causing more students to switch from pencils to pens in school. Moreover, the price of ink, an important input in pen production, has increased considerably.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

This is a situation where there is an inadequate increase in equilibrium quantities, which causes an ambiguous imbalance in equilibrium prices.

Explanation:

As seen in the question above, students stopped buying pencils, due to their allergy to rubbers, and started to buy pens. This causes a change in the balance between these two products, this change was not made by factors such as scarcity or better quality, but because of the students' allergy, which shows that the change in balance was made in an unequivocal manner.

However, there are many students who still buy the pencils, and the ink from the pens comes at a high price. This causes the change in the equilibrium price of these products to be ambiguous because demand and supply may fall or rise together, not allowing a forecast of price changes.

Answers

Answer:

World War II eliminated one type of totalitarianism only by strengthening another, with Soviet communism gaining territory and momentum.  The U.S. and Soviet Union were the two powers left standing at the end of WWII, but their longstanding rivalry never degenerated into a direct armed conflict between the two nations.  Thus, their rivalry was called the Cold War as opposed to an actual hot war, though smaller conflicts spun out of it.  What lent the Cold War such urgency was that if it had turned into a hot war, it would’ve been the hottest war in history because each side stockpiled big arsenals of nuclear weapons.

Joseph Stalin, ca. 1937

Joseph Stalin, ca. 1937

Starved Peasants on the Street in Kharkiv, Ukraine, 1933

Starved Peasants on the Street in Kharkiv, Ukraine, 1933

Complicating matters, Soviet leader Joseph Stalin was a sociopath of near Hitlerian proportions.  As General Secretary of the Communist Party, his ruthless disregard for human life made him the idol of future Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein.  The son of Georgian peasants, Comrade Stalin worked his way up the Bolshevik ranks as a bank robber in the czarist era.  In power from 1922-53, he was probably as murderous as Hitler, killing at least 10 million Soviets through deliberate, if famine-related, starvation, including the Ukrainian Holodomor (left), Great Terror political purges, and imprisonment in Gulag labor camps.  Holodomor translates to “extermination by hunger.”  Some historians, including Robert Conquest in The Great Terror (1968), estimate the number as high as 20 million while others, including Soviet dissident Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn and Soviet historian/political reformer Alexander Yakovlev, put the number far higher yet, at 60-70 million.  If we’re keeping score, Hitler’s total should include more than just the Holocaust since he was largely responsible for the entire European theater of WWII that killed tens of millions more, including civilians in Stalin’s USSR.

For sheer callousness at least, Stalin could rival anyone.  He sealed off borders and liquidated prosperous peasants (kulaks) by starving them to death to redirect their money toward industry.  He famously said that “one death is a tragedy; a million deaths is a statistic.”  Like Hitler, his genocidal policies were often aimed at nationalities such as Ukrainians or nomads of Kazakhstan.  Nonetheless, most historians would argue that, given the choice, Soviets and Eastern Europeans were lucky that the USSR prevailed over Germany in World War II.  Remember, Hitler’s unrealized Generalplan Ost would’ve enslaved, expelled or exterminated most of the Slavic population.  Under Stalin, citizens were usually allowed to live as long as they submitted to state authority and many prisoners survived the Gulags.  Luckily, Stalin never fully provoked the West to the point of escalation and didn’t live to see the advent of nuclear missiles with hydrogen-bomb warheads.

Based on the cartoon, explain the authors point of view about the Munich Agreement

Answers

Answer:

The cartoon expresses a view of utter contempt for Chamberlain, who was the British Prime Minister at the time.

Explanation:

The Munich Agreement was signed by Britain, France, Italy (Germany's ally), and Germany, and what the pact allowed Germany to annex a portion of Czeckoslovakia named the "Sudeteland", mostly inhabited by Ethnic Germans.

Hitler had threatened with starting a war if the pact was not signed, and claimed that the Sudeteland would be the last land annexation of Nazi Germany in Europe.

British leader Chamberlain, and French leader Philippe Pétain believed in Hitler's word, and signed the agreement.

The agreement was obviously a failure, because only a year later Germany would launch the invasion of Poland, starting World War II.

For this reason, both Chamberlain and Pétain are seen by historians as ineffective leaders.

Personal Ties to their native countries

American Economic ties with the Allies

Explanation:

Right on Odyssey

When the war started in 1914, American public opinion was divided over the conflict. What factors influenced this division?

Much of the population of the United States was made up of immigrants from Europe. These Americans tended to support their native countries or alliances in the conflict. German Americans, for example, supported the Central Powers. Most Americans, however, favored the Allies.

Americans were influenced by propaganda, particularly from France and Great Britain. Stories of German crimes reached the United States. Whether the stories were true or false mattered little. Such propaganda turned American support against Germany.

American economic ties were far stronger with the Allies than with the Central Powers. This increased American support for the Allies.

How to solve 3-x=10

Answers

Answer:

13

Explanation:

The computation of x value is shown below:-

So,

For computing the x, the following equation we need to solve which is here below:-

3 - x = 10

so x = 10 + 3

x = 13

We simply added the 3 and 10 to get the value of x

Therefore in simple words

We added the 10 with 3 to reach the x value

So the correct answer is 13
