Answer: B. because most of the merchants were Arabs
Explanation:
... as a response to US support of Israel in its 1973 war against a coalition of Arab states led by Egypt and Syria.
OPEC stands for the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries. Within that, there was also the Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries (OAPEC), formed in 1968. In 1973, OAPEC said they would cut oil production "until the Israeli forces are completely evacuated from all the Arab territories occupied in the June 1967 war." (The 1973 war was being fought to regain control of territories lost to Israel in 1967.) Egypt and Syria were both members of OAPEC, and they and other Arab nations were seeking leverage in the struggle with Israel and positioning for post-war settlements.
Answer:
20 members of the rappelling club are going on the trip
Explanation:
Total cost of the trip is $540.
If only one person goes, the cost is $540.
We can make the total number of people going x since we are not given.
Therefore, each member would pay (540/x)
We can also rep 7 with non members since the number is given as 7
Total people going= Members + non members.
Therefore, the cost per person is now (540/x+7).
Problem.
540/x -540/x +7 = 7
Multiply each with lowest common denominator.
When you expand, you get
540(x+7) - x(540)/x(x+7) =7
Simplify multiplication.
540x+3780-540x=7(x^2+7x)
Combine like terms
540x-540x+3780=7x^2+49x
3780=7x^2+49x
7x^2+49x-3780= 0
When we divide through by 7, we have
x^2+7x-540
Factorize, we have
(x^2+27x)-(20x-540)=0
x(x+27)-20(x+27)=0
(x-20)(x+27)=0
x is therefore 20 or -27
Since we know -27 cannot be a reasonable answer hence must be excluded.
The exact number of the people going on the trip is 20.
Answer:
continued wartime government controls kept prices of consumer goods low.
Explanation:
The economic growth in the early 1950's was the beginning of an era of intense economic expansion in the US and in the capitalist world that lasted for nearly 30 years. The growth experienced by the Western economy is linked to a change in the factors of labor and capital production. The policy of low prices, carried by the government through controls during the war, allowed new consumers to reactivate the economy in a fast way. Also, technological advances, the implementation of economies of scale, and improvements in business organization increased productivity. The increase in the labor supply was due to the natural growth of the population (baby-boom) and the changes in the rate of the active population as a result of the massive incorporation of female labor, due to international population movements and the attraction of workers from agriculture. Not only were quantitative increases in the labor supply observed, but also qualitative increases due to the improvement of the educational system.
On the other hand, the technical progress experienced at this time was linked to the multiplication of raw materials thanks to the manufacture of synthetic fibers and metal alloys, the spectacular development of new machinery and instruments, the advances in the extraction of natural resources and improvements in transportation and communications. This technological revolution was fundamental for mass production, automation, and industrialization of science.
