Supply and Demand

In economy, supply and demand is a model that helps you to determine the price of something in the market considering the level of interest in the product and how scarce that product is.

If many people want the same resource and that resource is not common, the intrinsic value of it becomes considerably higher. If you want to have that, you might have to offer something of great value to its owner.

In today's market, it means that if a product is rare and many people want that, the value in money is going to go up.

Same goes for the example on the question, since the supply is low and the demand for water is high, those with more to offer are going to be the ones who get it. If it goes the other way around (too much water and not much interest in it), the price would decrease considerably.

What effect did british rule have on the slave trade during the age of new imperialism
Nuetrik [128]

Question: What effect did British rule have on the slave trade during the age of new imperialism?

Answer:  <u>The slave trade was banned in Britain and in all of its colonies and the British faced significant obstacles in their attempts to control the slave trade.</u>

Explanation: Until the 19th century, Britain and other European powers found and centered their imperial ambitions in Africa, where they could apply with force their economic and military influence. The British centered their attention in the West African coast, where they worked around lucrative slave trade. An abolitionist is a person committed to ending slavery globally and by the early 19th century, an abolitionist movement in the Atlantic world had obtained the abolishment of slave trade in Great Britain and later on in the broader Atlantic world. Abolitionist history is a triumph of European human rights but the truth is that the abolitionist movement was not only humanitarian but also colonial and an imperialist endeavor. Imperialists believed in the need and benefit of establishing colonies oversea, while creating an empire in the process.

Why was the equal protection clause added to the Fourteenth Amendment?
ELEN [110]

Option C,  It restricted the power of Black Codes already in force is the right answer.

The Black codes in the united states were the laws that limited the freedom of African Americans. These black codes were passed by the Southern states in 1865 and 1866. Enacted in July 1868, the 14th Amendment in the constitution of  America proposed the  Citizenship, the Equal Protection and the Due process under the law. This Amendment was an acknowledgement to the problems related to former slaves following the American Civil War. The Equal Protection clause declared that "a state may not refuse any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws".
