Answer:

Suppose that the local school has $1,000 dollars. It can invest those $1,000 dollars to either buy 5 surveillance cameras each costing $200, or to buy 10 brand new textbooks for the library, each costing $100.

The school is facing a trade-off between buying surveillance cameras (guns), or textbooks (butter).

If the school only buys surveillance cameras, it will not have money to buy any textbooks, and viceversa.

The school board chooses the middle ground and buys 2 surveillance cameras for $400, and 6 textbooks for $600. Now, it does not have as many surveillance cameras as possible, or as many textbooks as possible, but it has a bit of both goods.

In late 19th century Americans farmers supported which of the following
bazaltina [42]

Answer: The Granger Movement against the railroads

Explanation:

The Railroads were a very important component of the American economy in the 19th century as they transported goods and people across large distances thereby opening up new markets and areas which benefitted groups like farmers.

Farmers were able to transport their produce across the United States but the Railroad owners kept increasing their prices which made the cost of selling high for farmers, a cost they had to bear because they had no choice.

Starting from the late 1860s, famers began to bind together to form what were called Granges and these were able to influence Government legislature targeted at unfair pricing by large corporations such as the railroads.
