Answer:
Approximately 22,000 metric tonnes of fish per year
Explanation:
From the graph,
Rate of decline :
(metric tonnes of fish in 1965 - metric tonnes of fish in 1995) / range of years
(700,000 - 40,000)metric tonnes ÷ (1995 - 1965)
660,000 metric tonnes ÷ 30 years
660,000 / 30
= 22,000 metric tonnes per year
Approximately 22,000 metric tonnes of fish per year
Answer:
A farmer would chose a luxury crop over a high caloric or nutritionally valued crop because a luxury crop would generate them more profit.
These are non-subsistence crops, ones that are not necessary to survive and be healthy, but luxury goods like the name implies. People are willing to pay more for them for this reason.
The correct answer is A) prevent monopolies.
Financial regulatory agencies focus on preventing monopolies because monopolies can be negative in a capitalist economy.
A monopoly is when one company has almost complete control over one specific market. For example, John D. Rockefeller was considered a monopoly by many people as his company Standard Oil controlled roughly 90% of all oil created in the US during the late 19th century. This type of control by one company can have a negative effect on the consumers. This is due to the fact that the monopoly has very little competition. Since there are few (if any) companies that can compete with the monopoly, the company that has cornered the market may have the chance to raise prices as high as they want. This is due to the fact that there is no other source to get this good from. This is why the government regulates the development of monopolies.
