The Bay of Pigs Invasion was a foreign policy embarrassment for the Kennedy Administration.
When John Kennedy assumed the presidency after Dwight Eisenhower, he was faced with the pressure to act on Cuban dictator Fidel Castro's growing relationship with the Soviet Union (yet another of US' formidable enemies).
His senior advisers urged him to authorize the attack on Cuba and initiate a movement to overthrow Fidel Castro. This played on Kennedy's foreign principle which is for Democratic countries such the US to show a strong force against dictatorships like Castro's. In April 1961, the invasion at the Bay of Pigs failed extremely. Castro was quick to mobilize his militia to counter Kennedy's botched plan. Aside from this, Kennedy made some worst decisions that nailed the coffin shut. Thus the Kennedy Administration suffered a lot of damage due to this failure.

sattari [20]

Answer:I did the calculations and i believe i got it right.

Explanation:

Mercury sold 500 tickets at $40 a piece, okay, still with me, good. Yet, only 450 tickets were used during the month. What that mean is to minus 50 tickets. 50 multiplied by $40 is $2000. 500 multiplied by $40 equals to $20000. $20000 minus $2000 is equaled to $18000. They also had a Unearned Revenue account that had a credit balance of $5000. So, that means they should be in "debt." They should have $-15000. Add $2000, it is equaled to $-13000. So it should be $-13000. If wrong, i'm sorry.

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

Given the marginal utility per dollar for the two products as follows:

$\frac{MU_{a} }{P_{a} } =6$

$\frac{MU_{b} }{P_{b} } =4$

All the individuals wants to maximize their utility that is obtained from the consumption of goods. We can see that marginal utility per dollar of product A is higher than the marginal utility per dollar of product B which means that this consumer should purchase more quantity of product A and less quantity of product B.

It is going on until the point at which marginal utility per dollar of both the products becomes equal.
