The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you did not attach the options for this question.

However, trying to help you we can comment on the following.

The statement that best explains how the Compromise of 1850 attempted to resolve debates over the expansion of slavery is "The compromise allowed California to join the United States as a free state but would allow slavery in southwestern territories."

Under the compromise of 1850, the territories that we're able to choose by popular sovereignty whether or not to allow slavery were New Mexico and Utah.

The United States had defeated the Mexican Army in the Mexican-American War that started in 1846 and ended in 1848. With the victory, the United States got new big portions of land that belonged to México. But many disputes started in the US about the issue of slavery in the territories. That is why under the Compromise of 1850, the government allowed New Mexico and Utah to decide whether or not to allow slavery, while California entered the Union as a free state.

Answer: A. designating an anti-charity should be more effective because loss aversion will provide additional motivation .

Options:

A. designating an anti-charity should be more effective because loss

aversion will provide additional motivation

B. designating a charity should be more effective because it avoids all potential for loss

C. it shouldn’t matter whether one designates a charity or anti-charity

D. self-interest biases generally keep people from choosing the anti-charity

Explanation:

The study of behavioral Economics shows that people are more driven by the loss of fear than the hope of gain. This is known as loss aversion. In commitment contracts where penalty money is promised to a charity or an anti-charity if the goal is not achieved, those who promise their money to an anti-charity tend to achieve their goals more. The same also applies when comparing this group and those who do not have to forego anything if they do not meet their target.

This is because giving to a charity will still seem beneficial while losing the money to an anti-charity will seem like a total loss.

What does McElvaine mean when he suggests the common good is best achieved by promoting social justice over economic liberty?

harina [27]

Answer:

With this statement, McElvaine meant that social justice is the only way to promote the same privileges to all members of a society and that is what a common good must do.

Explanation:

Commonly, it is the term that refers to benefits that are distributed equally to all members of society, so that they all have access to exactly all the resources necessary for their well-being. When McElvaine claims that common good is best achieved by promoting social justice over economic liberty, she/he meant that only social justice, that is, the view that all individuals deserve the same rights, opportunities and privileges, is capable to promote this equal distribution of social resources. For this reason, social justice must be sought first, so that economic freedom can be achieved later.
