Answer: Auto Industry

Oil Companies

Explanation: In 1956, President Eisenhower signed an Act that would create a 41,000 mile highway. The goals were to connect states, reduce traffic issues and create a safe, fast means of transportation.

People quickly realized the increased ease and auto makers benefited largely as this created a demand for their products. This did not only apply to small vehicles but for trucks which meant that goods could be transported faster and more easily. Another industry that benefited greatly was the oil industry due to the need for fuel.

Bingel [31]

Answer:

Ever found yourself looking back with hindsight and wondering why you progressed with one opportunity instead of another? There is a good chance that at the time of making your decision, the Opportunity Cost of the seemingly less attractive opportunity was not fully assessed. When we don’t fully know the value of what we’re giving up in order to progress a particular course of action, we can’t make a truly informed choice. Understanding the principles of Opportunity Cost is essential for making smart business decisions. What is Opportunity Cost?Opportunity Cost is a macroeconomic term that relates to scarcity of resources. Scarcity of resources – be that time or money – means that we have to make decisions about how we use what we have. Because we have to choose, we can only have the benefits of one option, and have to forego the benefits of the other. The benefits of the foregone option are the Opportunity Cost. Or as Bizfinance.com says:“Opportunity cost is the cost of a foregone alternative. If you chose one alternative over another, then the cost of choosing that alternative is an opportunity cost. Opportunity cost is the benefits you lose by choosing one alternative over another one.” Sushi or sandwich for lunch? Sushi. So, the sandwich becomes the Opportunity Cost. Opportunity Cost in BusinessWe make plenty of choices in a business day that all have an associated Opportunity Cost. On a small scale, it might be how you choose to use the next two hours – to do a proposal for a client, or get the invoices out? One or the other. The benefits of getting the proposal to the client, or the benefits of getting the invoices out? Each time we weigh up the resources available and what to do with them, there is an Opportunity Cost of not pursuing one option.Where the principle of Opportunity Cost is of greatest value for a business is in deciding which business opportunities to pursue. For these decisions, auto-pilot absolutely has to be switched-off. It is all too easy and common to unwittingly make decisions based on preconceptions. One option seems better from the outset, and this preconception then leads to an inaccurate assessment of the alternatives.How to assess Opportunity CostWhen assessing Opportunity Cost, it’s important to keep these three things in mind: (1) to make an informed economic decision, the value of an opportunity needs to be assessed based on both the benefits and the costs associated; (2) broader benefits should be assessed as well as the monetary benefits; and (3) each option needs to be assessed based on the same criteria (i.e. don’t just assess the preferred option in isolation).For example, a construction business has two opportunities on the table. Building Contract 1 has a job value of $200,000, which would require 2000 resource hours.

¿Cuáles fueron las actividades productivas de los pueblos prehispánicos?
laila [671]

Las primeras formas de organización económica en el México prehispánico fueron la agricultura y la caza. Los primeros hombres que habitaron las tierras mexicanas y parte de Centroamérica fueron grandes constructores y más tarde creadores de algunas de las civilizaciones más grandes de esa época, sin embargo (.) la economía de esa época se basó en las actividades comerciales, la división de la sociedad en clases y la importancia que generó en la economía el llamado Tlatoani.

The Equal Protection clause is the last part of the Fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution of the USA. The full amendment reads:

"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."

All these rulings have actually had the effect of reinforcing the legal protections of very different minority groups (Hispanics, women, LGBTs). The SCOTUS has ruled that these protections apply both a the federal and the state level since according to the Constitution all states must ensure equal protection of the laws for all citizens born or naturalized in the United States. The court clearly considers these issues as relevant to everyday citizens.

Therefore, the correct answer is D. It has interpreted equal protection as applying to different groups of people.
