The sentence that is correctly hyphenated is "The beauty of Mount Fuji's near-perfect cone shape has enchanted people for centuries."

Near-perfect is correctly hyphenated because in this context it is a compound modifier, it modifies Mount Fuji's appearance.

The beauty of Mount Fuji's near-perfect cone shape has enchanted people for centuries.

Can can hyphenate near-perfect because near modifies the adjective perfect. In other words, the cone shape is almost perfect. However, please note, that near should only be hyphenated before an adjective and not a noun (near miss, near halt, or near disaster).

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer: Economic deprivation has increased both petty and violent crimes, turning some cities into murder capitals.

Explanation: Economic deprivation is a lack of basic necessities of life in a society. If an individual lacks some material benefits, important to an everyday life there is huge tendency that the individual will resort to crime.

The proponent of Conflict theory believes that the economically deprived set of people will revolt against those hoarding the scarce resources and using it for their own personal and selfish reason. Class struggle will ensue among the group of people.

Economic deprivation can reduce social trust and encourage disorganization in the society which can birth another social problem of people indulging in crimes.
