Galoshes increase their labor by 85.8% if there is a decrease in 37.4% in wages using elasticity of labor.

Elasticity of labor is defined as the percentage change in demand for labor to percentage change in demand for labor to percentage change in wage rate.

Elasticity of labor= % demand of labor/% change in wage rate

Let % wage decrease be x
Δ demand for labor =L
i) Galorhes R = ΔL/-Δx = -2.3
ii) Emerson R = ΔL/-ΔX= -3.2
III) Wayne= ΔL/-ΔX= 1.7
iv) Bull stearns = ΔL/-Δx= 4.6

Therefore, emerson,lake and palmer increases the amounts
Hence 2nd option
2) Galorhes R= ΔL--37.3=-2.3
                     = 37.3× 2.3
                    = 85.79%

Answer: Ordinal scale.

Explanation:Ordinal scale is the level of measurement that gives the ranking of data without showing the degree of variation between them. It helps in identifying if object has more or less characteristic when compared to another object but does not tell the exact weight of the characteristic. Data in Ordinal scale is usually given in order of magnitude since there is no standard of measurement of differences. For example 1=most willing to 5=least willing.

As mentioned in the video, the US produces an annual "List of Goods Produced by Child Labor or Forced Labor." How effective do y
lina2011 [118]

Answer and Explanation:

By publishing the "List of Goods Produced by Child Labor or Forced Labor" the American government is able to raise awareness among the population that, although child labor is something inconceivable in American society, it still happens with great intensity in various places around the world. This allows the population to become aware of this situation and to stop buying products produced by companies that finance and allow child labor to happen. When they stop using these products, companies suffer a decrease in demand, which can cause significant changes in the production and in the lives of children who need to work.

While consumer pressure at companies that allow child labor is effective, pressure from political and commercial authorities is more effective in bringing about change and ensuring the protection of children, as these authorities can promote severe punishments for those who allow this to happen.
