The correct answer is D.States infringing on citizens' rights

Explanation:

The Fourteenth Amendment enacted in 1868, recognized and established African Americans had the same rights as the rest of the population and therefore they should be granted citizenship and equal rights including civil and legal rights. This Amendment was enacted to address the states infringing on African Americans' rights because before this Amendment and due to slavery, African Americans were not granted any right and were considered as property rather than people. This implied for many years states and individuals violated the basic rights of African Americans based on race and their former state of slavers. Thus, the Fourteenth Amendment was enacted to address the wrongs of States infringing on citizens' rights.

Becky only eats out at Macaroni Grill and eats out three times per month. She receives a raise from $33,200 to $33,500 and decid

iragen [17]

Answer:

55.58

Explanation:

Data provided in the question;

Initial demand per month, Q₁ = 3

Final demand per month, Q₂ = 5

Initial price, P₁ = $33,200

Final price, P₂ = $33,500

Now,

elasticity of demand using midpoint method is calculated as :

= $\frac{\textup{percent change in demand}}{\textup{percent change in supply}}$

= $\frac{\frac{Q_2-Q_1}{\frac{Q_1+Q_2}{2}}}{\frac{P_2-P_1}{\frac{P_1+P_2}{2}}}$

on substituting the respective values, we get

= $\frac{\frac{5-3}{\frac{5+3}{2}}}{\frac{33,500-33,200}{\frac{33,200+33,500}{2}}}$

= $\frac{\frac{2}{4}}{\frac{300}{\frac{66,700}{2}}}$

= $\frac{0.5}{\frac{300}{33,350}}$

= 55.58

If the economy booms, RTF, Inc., stock is expected to return 13 percent. If the economy goes into a recessionary period, then RT

Furkat [3]

Answer: 0.000903

Explanation:

Expected return is the sum of the probability that the other returns will happen.

= (13% * 83%) + (5% * 17%)

= 10.79 % + 0.85%

= 11.64%

Variance = ((Return during boom - Expected return)²*probability of boom) + ((Return during recession - Expected Return)²*probability of recession)

Variance = ((13% -11.64%)² * 83%) + (5% - 11.64%)² * 17%)

= 0.0001535168 + 0.0007495232

= 0.000903

______has an absolute advantage in the production of alfalfa, and_______ has an absolute advantage in the production of barley.

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

The person with Absolute advantage is the one that produces more of a good than the other.

Dina has an absolute advantage in the production of alfalfa, and Charles has an absolute advantage in the production of barley.

The person with Comparative Advantage is the person who produces something at a lower opportunity cost.

Charles Opportunity Costs

Producing Alfalfa gives 12 bushels per acre instead of 6 bushels for Barley.

Producing 1 Alfalfa means 6/12 = 0.5 bushels Barley is given up

Producing 1 bushel of Barley means 12/6 = 2 bushels Alfalfa is given up.

Dina Opportunity Costs

Producing Alfalfa gives 15 bushels per acre instead of 5 bushels for Barley.

Producing 1 Alfalfa means 5/15 = 0.33 bushels of Barley is given up

Producing 1 bushel of Barley means 15/5 = 3 bushels of Alfalfa is given up.

Charles's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of barley is 2 bushels of alfalfa, whereas Dina's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of barley is 3 bushels of alfalfa. Because Charles has lower a opportunity cost of producing barley than Dina, Charlie has a comparative advantage in the production of barley, and Dina has a comparative advantage in the production of alfalfa.
