Answer:

<u>The correct answer is C: producer's surplus increases and total surplus decreases in the market for that good</u>. The tariff translates into higher prices on the imported good, which reduces the quantity demanded. Therefore, the total surplus in the market for that good decreases. <u>Domestic production, in turn, will also expand, meaning an increase in producer's surplus. </u>

Explanation:

A tariff hike increases the price of a particular product, and this reduces the quantity demanded while encouraging domestic producers to increase output. <u>In the short run, however, price levels will be higher overall, </u>as domestic producers won't be able to supply the market at the pre-tariff prices. <u>Higher prices reduce total demand, thus decreasing total surplus in the market, but will also benefit local producers, as demand will shift to domestic production due to higher import prices. </u>

Why was the Articles of Confederation discarded?
Archy [21]
The Articles of Confederation were discarded in favor of a stronger more centralized federal government because of problems in governing that were associated with weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation. The Articles failed to allow the national government to collect taxes, resolve inter-state disputes, and govern effectively more generally. Therefore, at the Constitutional Convention they decided to scrap the Articles and write an entirely new Constitution.

A very tanned white businessman in Texas adopts a stereotyped Hispanic persona to help him sell used cars. He creates commercial
quester [9]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there were no options attached, we can say the following.

This is an example of cultural appropriation.

What this businessman is doing is stereotyping Hispanic people that indeed they were like that, but 100 years ago. But bot today. Not even close.

It would be the exact same case if, in some South American country, a businessman would try to sell United States products, hiring a US citizen and making his wear clothes to look like Uncle Sam, and talking like Uncle Sam or wearing Quakers clothes and behave as colonists did during colonial America.
