Answer:

both of these words were created and used way before the invention or idea of the automobile.

Explanation:

The main reason for these two words being used in the way that they are used in the modern world is that both of these words were created and used way before the invention or idea of the automobile.

Driveway was the first word to be used (Early 1800's) and referred to the piece of land next to a house in which people would pull up with their wagons in order to off-load any products that they needed to get into the house.

While Parkways referred to a wide road in a park in which many people could walk through at the same time. As time went by, these words were appropriated with similar modern day uses.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

How can alternative fuel help reduce inflation?
photoshop1234 [79]

Alternative fuels can help reduce inflation by generating bioethanol, biodiesel, and biogas from Biomass and these emerging fuels could minimize the overloading of non-renewable fuels and decrease pollution levels.

<h3>What is an alternative fuel?</h3>

Alternative fuel is a fuel other than petrol or diesel for powering motor vehicles such as natural gas, methanol or electricity.

Hence, Bioethanol is a clean, plentiful new source of fuel for the future and has the capacity to conserve petroleum resources from a renewable source.

It can be used in diesel engines either directly or as an additive in diesel fuel. It has the capacity to place petro-diesel fuel and reduce pollution levels.

Alternative fuel production and use, play major roles in economic growth, biomass waste management, producing a cleaner environment, decreasing gaseous pollutants, and ultimately developing sustainability.

Rudik [331]

Martin is exhibiting ageism.

<em>Ageism</em>, often called age <em>age prejudice</em>, is a form of discrimination of individuals because of their age. It happens when people are denied opportunities or resources as a result of being judged to old.  This term was first used by <em>Robert Neil Butler</em> in 1969.

The <em>Age Discrimination in Employment Act</em> ( ADEA ) forbids age discrimination in people that are over 40 years old, meaning that their age is not taken into consideration when seeking employment.

<em>Ageists attitudes</em> ( stereotypes against old people ) as used by Martin, often describe older people as weak, fragile, 'past sale date' and without mental or physical capacities to learn or acquire new skills.
