What is the definition of
market equilibrium?
Answer:
Answer Below:
Explanation:
In economics, economic equilibrium is a situation in which economic forces such as supply and demand are balanced and in the absence of external influences the (equilibrium) values of economic variables will not change. For example, in the standard text perfect competition, equilibrium occurs at the point at which quantity demanded and quantity supplied are equal.[1] Market equilibrium in this case is a condition where a market price is established through competition such that the amount of goods or services sought by buyers is equal to the amount of goods or services produced by sellers. This price is often called the competitive price or market clearing price and will tend not to change unless demand or supply changes, and quantity is called the "competitive quantity" or market clearing quantity. But the concept of equilibrium in economics also applies to imperfectly competitive markets, where it takes the form of a Nash equilibrium.

how did the restrictions reflect the role of women in greek society
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached we can say the following.
The restrictions reflected the role of women in ancient Greek society because women did not have a prominent role in ancient Greece. Indeed, they practically were treated as property.
Without a doubt, ancient Greek society favored the rule of man and its authority in practically everything in Greek society.
When women married men, they became their possession. When women were part of the family environment, the father or older brothers were considered their guardians,
Women were not considered citizens in ancient Greece. They could not own private property, they did not own land. Women were at the mercy of their husbands.
To make things worse, women did not reived education. Just men could attend schools.

What did Mary elizabeth lease mean when she said Kansas had better stop raising corn, and start raising hell
Answer:
Explanation:
y 1890 her involvement in the growing revolt of Kansas farmers against high mortgage interest and railroad rates had placed her in the forefront of the People's (Populist) Party. She traveled throughout Kansas, as well as the West and the South, for the cause. She was a powerful and emotional speaker; Emporia editor William Allen White, who did not share her political views, wrote on one occasion that "she could recite the multiplication table and set a crowd hooting and harrahing at her will."
More an agitator than a practical politician, Lease separated from the suffrage movement and by 1896 had become alienated from the Populist Party. She became less involved in politics. She divorced her husband in 1902 and spent the rest of her life with one or another of her children in the East. She died in 1933.
