History

Elza [17]3 years ago
5 0

The 24th amendment was important to the Civil Rights Movement as it ended mandatory poll taxes that prevented many African Americans.  Poll taxes, combined with grandfather clauses and intimidation, effectively prevented African Americans from having any sort of political power, especially in the South.  When the 24th amendment passed, five southern states, Virginia, Alabama, Texas, Arkansas, and Mississippi still had poll taxes.  Most Southern states, at one time or another had poll taxes and in severe cases, had cumulative poll taxes that required the voter to pay taxes not just from that year, but also previous years they had not voted.

If the price of copper rises, which of the following may occur?
Daniel [21]

Answer:

The correct option is B, the profits of copper produces increase

Explanation:

Assuming copper is price inelastic, meaning the rise in price would not impact the quantity demanded significantly, the revenue of the suppliers increase and as a result the bottom-line( profits) recorded by the suppliers increase.

A price increase cannot bring about reduction in quantity supplied ads increase in price is an incentive to supply more, hence option A is wrong.

Option C is totally out of context as well as option D

The government is not the one producing the copper let alone increase the content of the copper
