Nimfa-mama [501]3 years ago

While tomatoes are the fundamental products, the rise in the price of Gasoline has added wide-ranging influences on the federal economy. Gasoline production costs are much more than the purchase of tomatoes. So, when the price for gasoline fall, the financial impact that a country  will handle will be very significant than the influence country will respond when tomatoes' price fall.

An increment in the price of Gasoline rises in the cost of transportation and all others mode of the carrier operating on Gas. Transport lorries and buses also have the greater influence and become more costly and even air travel and the cost of sea shipping raises.

How does the neighborhood one calls home affect a poor person's life chances? how does the study "moving to opportunity" add to
kumpel [21]

This neighborhood we call home affects poor people´s life because it changes the point of view of a poor person about what is home for him or her. This person realized that there are another ways to live in this world and that some of them are really difficult for him or her to achieve. This can influence him or her in different ways like, it can motivate him or her to work harder and try his or her best so as to modify his meaning of home and get another one that may be better for him or her. It can also not motivate him or her and make this person feel like he or she has no way to get to our lifestyle and make her or him stalledwhere they are.

The study "Moving to Opportunity" adds to our understanding of poverty that we have a different meaning of poverty than other people. For example for some people being poor is not to get to pay the bills, or have no home or not being ableto buy food for their family. But for other people being poor is not being able to afford a holidays trip, or not buying the newest car or not getting the newest cellphone. Every person lives a different reality and has different ways to get to their objectives, but what we need to know is that sometimes we get worried about not getting the last cellphone or the last house or car on the market while some people are worried about how the are going to get a home for their family and how are they going to bring food to their tables. The luxuries and the material things are not always the most important in our life and we have to appreciate what we have and take care of it.

Consumers try to reduce cognitive dissonance by justifying their purchase decision. question 2 options:
Anestetic [448]
True. Cognitive dissonance occurs when two conflicting thoughts/emotions come in contact with one another so the consumer buying something and knowing they shouldn't have bought it forces them to try and justify their need for the object they purchased so they don't feel that dissonance anymore.

I hope I was able to help. Best of luck!

Write some note of challenges of democracy​
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Challenges

Improving governance in Tanzania is constrained by an increasingly powerful executive branch, closing civic space, violations of human rights,  lack of political competition, a still-emerging civil society, limited government capacity, low public accountability, and barriers to accessing information. Women and youth are particularly disadvantaged in these areas. Challenges include:

1,Low quality of public services including health, education, and water, in addition to a lack of institutional capacity.

2.Limited government accountability and a lack of public demand for improvement.

3.Widespread corruption and public sector inefficiencies.

4.Diminished checks and balances resulting from an imbalance of power between branches of government, with civil servants and elected officials tied to central government patronage rather than citizen constituents.
