Sumerian is the language of ancient Sumer and a language isolate that was spoken in Mesopotamia, during the 3rd millennium BC.

The Sumerians were one of the earliest urban societies to emerge in the world, in Southern Mesopotamia more than 5000 years ago. They developed a writing system whose wedge-shaped strokes would influence the style of scripts in the same geographical area for the next 3000 years

Cuneiform is a system of writing first developed by the ancient Sumerians of Mesopotamia c. 3500-3000 BCE. It is considered the most significant among the many cultural contributions of the Sumerians and the greatest among those of the Sumerian city of Uruk which advanced the writing of cuneiform c. 3200 BCE.  

The name comes from the Latin word cuneus for 'wedge' owing to the wedge-shaped style of writing. In cuneiform, a carefully cut writing implement known as a stylus is pressed into soft clay to produce wedge-like impressions that represent word-signs (pictographs) and, later, phonograms or `word-concepts' (closer to a modern-day understanding of a `word'). All of the great Mesopotamian civilizations used cuneiform until it was abandoned in favour of the alphabetic script at some point after 100 BCE, including:

The only one to be close to a stylus is a c) reed pencil, since the rest was still not invented 5000 years ago.

Bentham and Mill rejected hedonism and believed that happiness is not the only thing that is intrinsically valuable. Group of an
VikaD [51]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Hello!

In 1780, Jeremy Bentham published <em>"Introduction to the Principles of Morals and Legislation"</em>, in which he proposed the initial proposal of an ethical doctrine that would later be known as utilitarianism.  

Utilitarianism defines the value of human actions by their usefulness.  This means that the value of an action will be allocated by the capacity of that action to achieve the highest level of happiness for the greatest number of people. Happiness was understood in a hedonistic way, so it was sought to increase pleasure and decrease pain.

In 1863, Stuart Mill publishes <em>"Utilitarianism"</em>, in which he proposes the assessment of pleasure not only quantitatively, but also qualitatively.

Which sentence best completes the diagram?
motikmotik

Answer:

The correct option is A: Banks decrease their prime rate.

Explanation:

When the government through the Federal Reserve ups the discount rate, other rates tend to follow in the same direction. The reverse is also true.

The discount rate is the rate at which the Federal Reserve lends to Commercial Banks. Commercial banks on the other hand, in order to keep the profit, are forced to adjust their prices in the direction of the discount rate.

The prime rate is the rate at which commercial banks lend to their customers who have very good credit ratings.

The discount rate in economics is one of the monetary policy tools available for use by the government. It is used to adjust factors such as money supply and inflation.

Cheers
