Which of the following people decides how much of something to produce in a market economy

There are two different aztec calendars. How are they different?

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

The Aztecs were one of the most advanced pre-Columbian civilizations, <u>although they did not know the use of zero</u>, since they already had an organized system of recording time. This was achieved with two calendars: the <em>xíhuitl</em> or solar calendar and the <em>tonalpohualli </em>or ritual calendar.

<h2><em>Xíhuitl</em></h2>

It was the solar or agricultural calendar, was divided into 365 days, which were divided into 18 months <em>(cempohuallapohualli)</em> of 20 days and a period of 5 days called <em>nemontemi</em> (empty days), which were considered <u>harmful or useless </u>and during which the people fasted and ceased all activity.

Then, according to this calendar, each week had 5 days, being the last day dedicated to the market.

It should be noted that each month of this calendar was related to agriculture, and<u> its use was for civil matters</u>, since it regulated the great ceremonies of the state.

<h2><em>Tonalpohualli</em></h2>

This calendar was composed of 260 days, which were divided into 20 months, 13 days each; where the names of each month was related to an Aztec god and an associated elemental force.

This is because according to the Aztec cosmology, the different gods had to have their own space and dedicated time, to avoid a war in which the world was in the middle and would be affected. That is, they divided the time among their gods to devote to each respect equally.

It should be noted that this calendar was used for ritual purposes and make predictions, which means, it was more divinatory and religious.

<h2>Then, one calendar was used for <u>civil activities </u>and the other for <u>ritual activities</u> and was divinatory.</h2>

1 What gives congress the ability to creat laws?

erica [24]

Answer:

1. The Constitution specifically grants Congress its most important power — the authority to make laws. A bill, or proposed law, only becomes a law after both the House of Representatives and the Senate have approved it in the same form.

2. The enumerated powers of the United States Congress are the powers granted to the federal government of the United States. Most of these powers are listed in Article I, Section 8 of the United States Constitution.

3. Implied powers are political powers granted to the United States government that aren't explicitly stated in the Constitution. They're implied to be granted because similar powers have set a precedent. These implied powers are necessary for the function of any given governing body.

4. Inherent powers are powers held by a sovereign state. In the United States, the President derives these powers from the loosely worded statements in the Constitution that "the executive Power shall be vested in a President" and the president should "take care that the laws be faithfully executed".

5. Powers of the United States Congress are implemented by the United States Constitution, defined by rulings of the Supreme Court, and by its own efforts and by other factors such as history and custom. It is the chief legislative body of the United States.

Discuss the challenges and difficulties of Dr. King's non-violent approach to protest. Do you feel these strategies were effecti

zysi [14]

Answer: Three challenges Martin Luther King Jr. faced in the battle for equal rights included the opposition of "good" white people to his tactics, his realization that the only way to win civil rights was to proceed nonviolently, and pushback against his plan in the late 1960s to unite Black people and white people in a war on poverty.

King pushed back against critics of his methods. In Birmingham, he led Black people in protest marches and boycotts against racial segregation in that city. After he was jailed for his activities, he learned that a group of eight white clergymen had sent a letter to the newspapers saying he had gone too far. King knew he had to stop this dissent from people who were supposed to be on his side, so he sent his "Letter from Birmingham City Jail" explaining that nothing would be accomplished without disruptive, but nonviolent, action.

King also had the problem of needing white support to get civil rights legislation passed in the United States, because the country was predominantly white and white people held most of the power. He realized that any whiff of Black violence would provide the pretext for white people to crush his movement. Therefore, he trained his followers in Gandhi's techniques of nonviolence and was continually challenged to find ways to protest that were disruptive without spilling over into violence. His nonviolent approach was controversial but ultimately effective.

Finally, King faced opposition when, in the late 1960s, he tried to unify poor Black people and poor white people together in solidarity and spoke out to oppose the Vietnam War. In the end, his message was more than some could take, and he was assassinated in 1968.

I feel Dr. King's strategies were somewhat effective.
