Answer: Quota
Explanation:
Quotas are a way of limiting the imports that a country receives. It works by placing a limit on the amount of a certain good coming into the country within a certain period of time. After the required quantity is reached, the country stops imports of that good until the next period.
The United States learnt a sharp lesson in oil dependence when in 973, Arab countries placed an embargo on the United States for supporting Israel and this caused economic crises.
Placing a quota on the amount of oil it can get from Saudi Arabia will help it reduce the chances of such an event occurring again.

Answer:
a. c+b≤360....equation 1
b. 2 c+1.5 b≥500.... equation 2, where c and b are the number of cans and bottles of water respectively.
c. The number of water bottles to be sold have to be equal to or more than 142 to cover the cost of renting costumes.
Explanation:
a.
<em>Step 1: Determine maximum number of cans and bottles</em>
As indicated, the number of cans and bottles can not exceed a certain value. This means that the number of cans and bottles can be either equal to or less than that value. The maximum number of cans and bottles can be represented in the following expression;
c+b≤m
where;
c=unknown
b=unknown
m=360
replacing;
c+b≤360....equation 1
b.
<em>Step 2: Determine total amount needed to raise $500</em>
Since $500 dollars is the minimum amount needed, the sales have to be $500 and more. This can be expressed as;
(C×c)+(B×b)≥T
where;
T=total amount needed
C=price per can of lemonade
c=number of cans sold
B=price per bottle of water
b=number of bottles sold
In our case;
T=$500
C=$2
c=unknown
B=$1.50
b=unknown
replacing;
(2×c)+(1.5×b)≥500
2 c+1.5 b≥500.... equation 2
c.
<em>Step 3: Determine least number of bottles of water that must be sold</em>
The least number of bottles of water that must be sold to cover the cost of renting costumes can be solved using equation 2 above;
2 c+1.5 b≥500
where;
c=144
b=unknown
replacing;
(2×144)+1.5 b≥500
288+1.5 b≥500
1.5 b≥500-288
1.5 b≥212
b≥212/1.5=141.33=142
b≥142, meaning the number of water bottles to be sold have to be equal or more than 142 to cover the cost of renting costumes.
Answer:
b. If the employer accepts Turner's counteroffer, Turner will recognize as gross income $55,000 per month [($480,000 + $180,000)/12].
Explanation:
Given that
Turner annual salary = $600,000
Counteroffer to received a monthly salary = $40,000 or $480,000 annually
And, $180,000 bonus in 5 years at the age of 65
So the benefit he will be getting would be after accepting the counter offer is
= ($480,000 + $180,000) ÷ 12 months
= $660,000 ÷ 12 months
= $55,000
