const2013 [10]3 years ago
4 0

You are probably talking about the US Committee on Public Information, which operated for 26 months from 1917 to 1919 during World War I. It is an independent agency of the U.S government, in the level of CIA, FCC, FTC, and the Postal Service. The agency was tasked to use every medium available to build up public enthusiasm to the war effort. It did so by engaging in a prolonged propaganda campaign to influence American public opinion and support war effort, often depicting Germans as beasts. The committee was disestablished soon after the Armistice was signed on November 11, 1918.

How did the industrial revolution affect the lives of the working class?
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer: industrial revolution not only affected working class, it created working class. It was the main consequence, because before there was only labour working on the fields. The second consequence was that industrial revolution caused process or urbanization (people moving from country to towns and cities) and the third one was that the social conflict became more visible.

Explanation: European society was mainly rural society before the industrial revolution. Majority of people lived in the countryside and in certain harmony with the nature. Industrial revolution cut off people from the nature and natural life-style. Sometimes it is referred as "alienation". Result of that were masses of "alienated" people suppressing their natural drives and life-style of their ancestors. These people frequently lived in inhuman conditions in towns, were explored and this was something that contradicted to the ideals of Enlightenment and the French revolution. Working class became aware of this social problem in 1848 but at the same time there was a nationalism ...another strong tendency among masses of people. So people became increasingly aware both their social status (and conflict, and alienation) and their nationality.

Which country most influence the development and legacy of the traditional American cowboy
yuradex [85]

Cowboys originated in Mexico.

When the spanish conquerors arrived, they started stablishing ranchs and farms, and the role of the <em>vaquero </em>(from the spanish word <em>vaca</em>) was coined to  name the men who took care of the livestock, and who were also good with certain skills like herding, roping and riding.

As the ranching practices were spread, so did the culture of the cowboy, including their clothing style and their skills.

The first cowboys had different backgrounds like Mexican, Native American and African American, among others.

Sharla invests $275 in a simple interest bearing account for 16 years. The annual interest rate is 8%. Using the simple interest
Harrizon [31]
I = Prt

I: interest earned
P: principle (initial invested amount)
r: rate (percentage)
t: time in years (duration)

Most often, when letters are side-by-side this means they are all factors of each other. If something is a factor of another, then multiply them. So, 275 times 8% or 8/100 or 0.08 times 16 years is equal to $352. With this total subtract $275 from $352. The interest earned is equal to $77.

$275 * 0.08 * 16 yrs = $352
$352 - $275 = $77
I = $77

This may seem confusing when saying aloud in order of the equation, "Interest equals $352". The total is $352, the interest earned is equal to $77. Conventions and platitudes are often erroneous.
