The correct answer is C.

The elasticity of a demand function refers to the percentage variation in the quantity demanded of a product, when its price changes. According to the law of demand, there is an inverse relationship between quantity demanded and price and, hence, when the price of a product increases, the number of consumers willing to purchase it decreases. <u>The size of such variation is measured by the elasticity. The greater the variation, the more elastic the curve is. </u>

Products which satisfy basic needs (water, electricity, bread) tend to have more inelastic demands as, no matter whether its price increases, consumers continue purchasing it. The decrease in the amount demanded is small. On the other hand<u>, when the good is not basic or, when there are proper substitutes, the product will have a more elastic demand. </u>Consumers can easily switch to another soda drink if the price of CocaCola increases too much or, also, they can live without soda drinks at all.

The social gospel used what belief
muminat

Answer:

[B] religious morals

Explanation:

For a bit of a timeline reference, the period that the Social Gospel reigned was during the late nineteenth to early twentieth century. The Social Gospel was a group of people who tried to use their Christian faith to justify their ideas of what solutions to certain social problems should be. A way to remember the religious ties that the Social Gospel had to society would be the word <em>gospel</em>, which by definition relates to church and thus religious faith.

[A] Imperialism would be an incorrect response. Think of imperialism as typically belligerent or selfish nations who tried to get as many resources as possible from other developing countries, like how Great Britain was the mother colony farming resources from the colonies throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. For some extra context, imperialism was much more prevalent during the sixteenth to nineteenth centuries.

[C] Laissez-faire is a method of practicing capitalism that the federal government used in the US. The phrase <em>laissez-faire</em> is French and essentially means "let it be," which follows the conservative economic ideal of not regulating the market.

Why did Hamilton use the words "insurgent" and "insurrection" to describe the events in Pennsylvania
Nataly_w [17]

In the summer of 1794, tensions between farmers and creditors in western Pennsylvania boiled over into violence. A group of armed farmers, calling themselves the "Associators," began to attack and seize the property of anyone they saw as an enemy. In response, President George Washington dispatched a force of 13,000 militiamen to put down the rebellion.

In a report to Congress, Alexander Hamilton described the events in Pennsylvania as an "insurgent" and "insurrection." By using these words, Hamilton was trying to downplay the seriousness of the situation and avoid calling it a full-blown rebellion. He may have also been trying to avoid provoking even more violence by using language that was less inflammatory.

The situation in Pennsylvania was eventually resolved without any major bloodshed. However, the episode showed how quickly tensions could boil over into violence in the early days of the republic. It also showed the importance of having a strong central government that was able to quickly put down any internal threats to the stability of the country.
