Hunter-Best [27]

Let the food in the boy's home be : F

Given : This food is sufficient for 50 children for 12 days

$\implies \sf{\textsf{The food consumed by 50 children in one day} : \dfrac{F}{12}}$

$\implies \sf{\textsf{The food consumed by 1 child in one day} : \dfrac{F}{12 \times 50}}$

Given : There is an increase of 10 more children

It means : Total children = 60

$\implies \sf{\textsf{The food consumed by 60 children in one day} : \dfrac{F \times 60}{12 \times 50}}$

$\implies \sf{\textsf{The food consumed by 60 children in one day} : \dfrac{F}{10}}$

$\implies \sf{\textsf{The food consumed by 60 children in 10 days} : \dfrac{F\times 10}{10}}$

$\implies \sf{\textsf{The food consumed by 60 children in 10 days} : F}$

Answer: The food is sufficient for 10 days

what were the disadvantages of monopolies during the gilded age and how was it used by Robber barons?

mash [69]

Answer:

In hindsight, from the Gilded Age monopolists perspective they would say that they have pushed too far with manipulation of prices and thus brought negative reaction and counter measures from the general public. In particular, farmers in the Western country demanded that the government set maximum prices on railroads because monopolist had uncontrolled pricing power. Through the Granger movement they achieved passing of some of the ‘Granger Laws’ and set pricing limit on some services.

This concerned other industries as well. For example, the famous Robber baron Vanderbilt was competing with steamboat monopoly that controlled transportation between New York City and Albany. Using populist rhetoric and peoples line to bring down monopolies, he was trying to pave the way for his own business. Meanwhile, the monopolistic Hudson River Steamboat Association end up paying him a great amount of money so that he would stop doing it.
