<span>Between 1959 and 2012, the percentage of elderly Americans living in poverty went from about 35 percent to about 10 percent.

There can be multiple reasons for that, one can be the social security program which ensures some basics for the elderly people, also the awareness and sympathy rose in between the years quoted and helped decrease the percentage. </span>

Economics affects nearly everything we do in some way. Someone else has produced
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Supply and Demand/ Monetary Value

Explanation:

This is a very simple question, but the person who created the question overcomplicated it for no reason. If there is high demand for something, people will be willing to pay more for it. For example, medicine is costly but due to companies knowing that people will pay whatever it takes to get that medicine.

Gold. Not as much demand as their used to be. But the supply is very limited. In short, because it is rare, it is valuable.

There is a reason we don't pay $100 for a leaf. Because they are everywhere and don't have any monetary value (there is no use for it)

What was the terrorist’s main goal in committing the September 11, 2001, attacks?
Oxana [17]

Letter B is correct.

The attacks took place because Osama Bin Laden (the leader of al-Qaeda), who had naïve beliefs about the United States, wanted to punish America the same way he had been punished in the past when the U.S supported the Israelis destroying the towers in Lebanon and killing their people. <u>The 9/11 terrorist attack was considered a huge success for al-Qaeda because it killed and affected many people and damaged the US economy.</u> Al-Qaeda's target was a good choice since the World Trade Center was the heart of New York and its financial district which kept their markets closed for 4 trading days and provoked record losses.

Sliva [168]

Answer: The city of Savannah, Georgia, the largest city and the county seat of Chatham County, Georgia, was established in 1733 and was the first colonial and state capital of Georgia.[1] It is known as Georgia's first planned city and attracts millions of visitors, who enjoy the city's architecture and historic structures such as the birthplace of Juliette Gordon Low (founder of the Girl Scouts of the United States of America), the Telfair Academy of Arts and Sciences (one of the South's first public museums), the First African Baptist Church (one of the oldest black Baptist congregations in the United States), Congregation Mickve Israel (the third-oldest synagogue in America), and the Central of Georgia Railway roundhouse complex (the oldest standing antebellum rail facility in America).[1][2] Today, Savannah's downtown area is one of the largest National Historic Landmark Districts in the United States (designated in 1966).[A] [1]
