The answer is letter a. true.  The 14th Amendment was ratified to enable former slaves to citizenship as well as equal protection before the law.  Southern politicians were very much against this amendment for they saw it as a threat to their position.

The correct answer is: "TRUE".

The Citizenship clause is included in the 14th Amendment to the US Constitution, that was enacted in 1868, during the Reconstruction era.  It states that everybdy who is born or naturalized in the US, is a citizen of the United States and of the state where that person resides.

This clause overturned the former US Supreme Court decision, adopted to solve the Dred Scott v. Sandford case,  which determined that African Americans and former slaves could not acquire the US citizenship nor enjoy the rights and immunities connected to it.

Morever, the 14th Amendment included the Equal Protection Clause which guarantees equal rights for all US citizens, without discrimination in terms or race, gender, religious beliefs, etc.

Rasek [7]

Marginal benefit is more than marginal cost that is why some people more than others enjoy buying a lot of shoes.

Explanation:

When marginal benefit is more than marginal cost the resources were used more efficiently, when there is  increase in the quantity. Marginal cost is the cost incurred by producing one extra unit of the commodity. Marginal benefit is referred to as the extra benefit received by consuming one extra unit of the benefit.

in case of shoes the consumer will buy more shoes because he or she is getting extra benefit by consuming one extra unit but when the marginal cost becomes more than the marginal benefit he or she will not like the benefit because the consumer has to pay more for using the benefit.
