It sputtered and squeaked and with a small hesitation followed by an abbreviated lunge, it was finally over: Ol’ Reliable, the c

ar Jamie Lee had driven since she first earned her driver’s license at the age of 17, completed its last mile. Thirteen years and 140,000 miles later, it was time for a new vehicle.
After skimming the Sunday newspaper and browsing the online advertisements, Jamie Lee was ready to visit car dealers to see what vehicles would interest her. She was unsure if she would purchase a car brand new, used, finance with a down payment, or lease. "No money down and only $233 a month," Jamie Lee read, "with approved credit." Sounded like an offer she would be interested in. Jamie Lee knew she had a good credit rating as she made sure she paid all of her bills on time each month, and kept a close eye on her credit score ever since she was the victim of identity theft several years ago. The more she thought about the brand new car, the more excited she became. That new car fit her personality perfectly!

As Jamie Lee inquired about the advertised vehicle with the new car salesperson, her excitement quickly turned to dismay. The automobile advertised was available for $233 a month with no money down, based on approved credit, but Jamie Lee unexpectedly found that there were further qualifications in order to get the advertised price. The salesman explained that the information in the fine print of the newspaper advertisement stated that the price was based on all of the following criteria: being active in the military, a college graduate within the last three months, a current lessee of the automobile company, and having a top tier credit score, which he noted was above 800. If Jamie Lee did not meet all of the qualifications, she would not receive the price advertised in the promotion. But, he noted, he could get her in that vehicle, but it would cost her an additional $125 per month. Two hundred and seventy-five dollars was the maximum Jamie budgeted for a monthly payment. This vehicle was outside of her financial plan.

Jamie Lee had to start over from scratch. She decided that she must fully research the vehicle purchase process before browsing at another dealership. She felt she was getting caught up in the moment and vowed to do her research before speaking with another salesperson.

Determine the value of z.
TiliK225 [7]

Explanation:

Let angle y be the unknown angle inside the triangle.

given

y + 87 + 34 = 180 (sum of angles in a triangle)

y + 87 + 34 = 180 \\ y + 121 = 180 \\ y = 180 - 121 \\  = 59

given y + z = 180 (angles on same straight line)

y + z = 180 \\ 59 + z = 180 \\ z = 180 - 59 \\  = 121

What was a part of the emerging social, political, and economic philosophies that characterized the first hundred days of Frankl
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

"Try something and if it doesn't work, admit it and try something else."

Explanation:

When I took US Government, my teacher always emphasized that FDR was probably the best American President, and things like this really show why he admired him so much. Can you imagine those words coming out of the mouth of a modern politician?

Many people like to compare President Obama's first term with FDR's first term, but I believe that Obama had it easier. Not because the recession wasn't bad, but because it was fresh and new. President Bush's handling of the crisis was disastrous, but they messed up only for about one year. When FDR took office, the depression had been around for several years, so the negative effects were much greater.

When FDR took office the country was ravaged and nobody was sure that the new policies would work or not, or even what policies they should have implemented. That is why they engaged in a trial and error type of strategy where several options were explored to try to see what could work and what couldn't.
