Satan uses our 'fleshly weakness' to lead us into temptation. The first temptation Jesus faced in the wilderness was 'the lust of the flesh'. Just as it was then, in today's world this is the desire of material things such as food, clothing, money, etc. instead of trusting God for our provision of these things, specifically the 'spiritual food's that only God can give!
1. = A. monopoly
In regard to some city infrastructure services, it is seen as beneficial to have a single supplier. For instance, water and sewer systems tend to be operated as a single entity under city or county supervision. Cable television service, however, is an area where having business competition likely would be good for a city's residents. Licensing only one cable provider gives a monopoly to that company. It may happen, though, in small towns where the municipal government needs to attract a company to do business there.
2. = C. inelastic
As defined by <em>Investopedia, </em>demand elasticity "refers to how sensitive the demand for a good is to changes in other economic variables, such as prices and consumer income
." Demand is said to be elastic when even small changes in price will affect consumers' buying habits for that product. If the price goes down a little, shoppers will stock up at the lower price. If the price goes up a little, shoppers will hold off on buying and wait for the price to drop. This can happen with food products, where shoppers may simply change to different menu items because a particular food item's price has spiked for a time. Inelastic demand means that changes in price will have less effect on consumers' buying habits. They still need and purchase the product or service in the same amounts even if prices go up slightly. This happens with gasoline, for instance. The price at the pump may be 10 cents higher this week, but you still fill your gas tank. Or cell phone service remains a consumer commitment even though prices fluctuate.
3. = C. producers to supply more and consumers to buy less.
Think of a high price as saying to producers, "Go, go, go!" There is obvious demand for the product that has pushed the price high--so the more you can make and sell, the more you as a supplier will profit. At the same time, the high price is saying to consumers, "Whoa, whoa, whoa! Slow down!" High prices will tell consumers to hold off on purchasing something and assess whether they really need it or can afford it. Even if the product is needed, consumers may wait, in hopes that prices will come down before long, or buy less of the product than they would have if prices were lower.

Explanation:
On February 8, 1860, the Texas legislature passed an act providing for the formation of Greer County, with boundaries "beginning at the confluence of Red River and Prairie Dog Town River; then running up Red River, passing the mouth of the South Fork [Elm Fork] and following main or North Red River to its intersection with the twenty-third degree of west longitude (the 100th meridian); thence due south across the Salt Fork to Prairie Dog River, and thence following that river to the place of beginning." The act went into effect at once, but because of the confusion consequent to the outbreak of the Civil War little was done immediately toward organizing and putting into operation a system of county government. In 1884, however, 144,000 acres of land was patented to the Day Land and Cattle Company, which also leased 203,000 additional acres. By 1885 there were in the county some ten families and 60,000 cattle belonging to seven or eight firms that employed 100 men. The Francklyn Land and Cattle Company owned 40,000 cattle there. In July 1886 the settlers of Greer County met at Mobeetie and organized Greer County on the authority of the act of 1860. Mangum was named the county seat, and provision was made for a county government. Soon the county commissioners began building a county jail, planned to cost $11,000. Two post offices were established, one at Mangum and another at Frazier. A school system was set up, and by 1892 sixty-six school districts had been formed with an enrollment of 2,250 pupils.
