The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Some people think that if the government had greater control in regulating the economy, the Great Depression would not have happened. Others disagree. They believe that a free market economy lets consumer choices have the greatest say in the direction of the economy and produces the best outcomes for the most people. I agree with the first one because if you totally allow the market and people to dictate the flow of the economy, then you have those kinds of consequences. After the consumerism behavior of the "Roaring 1920s," most people bought things on credit. But the lack of some kind of government regulation took things to the extreme and that is when the United States stock market crashed on October 29, 1929, beginning the Great Depression.

I think the best position is a balance between government regulation is special or extreme conditions and letting the free market dictate the economy.

Hi, can someone help me with a check this is from Social Studies/History (Ikr? Yea, shocker) But I would really appreciate it if
steposvetlana [31]

Answer: Well it's a little hard to explain so I hope this helps

Explanation: Step 1: Date the check

Write the date on the line at the top right-hand corner. This step is important so the bank and/or person you are giving the check to knows when you wrote it.

Step 2: Who is this check for?

The next line on the check, “Pay to the order of,” is where you write the name of the person or company you want to pay. You can also just write the word “cash” if you don’t know the person or organization’s exact name. Be aware, though, that this can be risky if the check ever gets lost or stolen. Anybody can cash or deposit a check made out to “cash."

Step 3: Write the payment amount in numbers

There are two spots on a check where you write the amount you are paying. First, you’ll need to write the dollar amount numerically (for example $130.45) in the small box on the right. Be sure to write this clearly so the ATM and/or bank can accurately subtract this amount from your account.  

Step 4: Write the payment amount in words

On the line below “Pay to the order of,” write out the dollar amount in words to match the numerical dollar amount you wrote in the box. For example, if you are paying $130.45, you will write “one hundred thirty and 45/100.” To write a check with cents, be sure to put the cents amount over 100. If the dollar amount is a round number, still include “and 00/100” for additional clarity. Writing the dollar amount in words is important for a bank to process a check as it confirms the correct payment total.

Step 5: Write a memo

Filling out the line that says “Memo” is optional, but helpful for knowing why you wrote the check. If you are paying a check for a monthly electric bill or rent, you can write “Electric Bill” or “Monthly Rent” in the memo area. Often when you are paying a bill, the company will ask you to write your account number on the check in the memo area.

Step 6: Sign the check

Sign your name on the line at the bottom right-hand corner using the signature you used when you opened the checking account. This shows the bank that you agree that you are paying the stated amount and to the correct payee. (This is so long sorry)

How did the colonists respond to the unfair British system of mercantilism?
kvasek [131]

Broadly speaking, Mercantilism was very good for European countries for a while but terrible for their colonies.

Mercantilism made people in the Old World VERY rich and this made the Colonists angry.

As a result, the colonists started to push back and eventually rebelled.
