Are Abel Fields’s actions protected by the First Amendment?

PSYCHO15rus [73]3 years ago
5 0

According to a 2012 decision by the US Supreme Court, Abel Fields's actions are protected by the First Amendment.


In the fictitious case study scenario of Abel Fields, he claimed to have received a Purple Heart for wounds suffered in combat, when in fact he had never served in the military. He asserted his claim as a freedom of speech issue.


In a real-life decision by the US Supreme Court, <em>United States v. Alvarez, </em>the the Court struck down the Stolen Valor Act of 2005 (signed into law by President G.W. Bush in 2006). The law had criminalized false statements about having a military medal. By a 6-3 majority, the Supreme Court determined that the Stolen Valor Act was unconstitutional under the First Amendment's protection of free speech.

Which is the best description of the equivalency of the two expressions? Expression 1 Expression 2 5 x squared minus 2 x minus 4
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

The correct option is (D).

Step-by-step explanation:

The two expressions are:

\text{Exp}_{1}=5x^{2}-2x-4+6x+3\\\\\text{Exp}_{2}=6x^{2}-6x+6-x^{2}+10x-7

On simplifying both the expressions we get:

\text{Exp}_{1}=5x^{2}+4x-1\\\\\text{Exp}_{2}=5x^{2}+4x-1

Compute the value of both expressions for <em>x</em> = 2 as follows:

\text{Exp}_{1}=5(2)^{2}+4(2)-1=27\\\\\text{Exp}_{2}=5(2)^{2}+4(2)-1=27

The value of both expressions are same for <em>x</em> = 2.

Thus, the correct option is:

"They are equivalent because when x = 2, the two expressions have the same value."

which polynomial correctly combines the like terms and expresses the given polynomial in standard form? 8mn5-2m6+5m2n4-m3n3+n6-4
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The answer would be 7mn^5 - 2m^6 + 14m^2n^4 - 5m^3n^3 + n^6

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find that answer, start by grouping all of the terms by their variable values. Ones that are the same should be combined.

8mn^5 - mn^5 = 7mn^5

2m^6 - 4m^6 = -2m^6

5m^2n^4 + 9m^2n^4 = 14m^2n^4

-m^3n^3 - 4m^3n^3 = -5m^3n^3

n^6 = n^6

Now we simply combine them all to get

7mn^5 - 2m^6 + 14m^2n^4 - 5m^3n^3 + n^6

Answer:

Lines c and b, f and d (option b)

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove whether the lines satisfy the condition of being a transversal to another, let's prove one of the conditions wrong, and thus the answer -

Option 1:

Here lines a and b do not correspond to one another provided they are both transversals, thus don't act as transversals to one another, they simply intersect at a given point.

Option 2:

All conditions are met, lines c and b correspond with one another such that b is a transversal to both c and d. Lines f and d correspond with one another such that f is a transversal to both d and c.

Option 3:

Lines c and d are both not transversals, thus clearly don't act as transversals to one another.

Option 4:

Lines c and d are both not transversals, thus clearly don't act as transversals to one another.
