Canadian Confederation (French: Confédération canadienne) was the process by which the three colonies of Canada, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick were united into one federation called the Dominion of Canada on July 1, 1867. Upon confederation, what had formerly been called the Province of Canada was divided into the two provinces of Ontario and Quebec. Thus, the new Dominion initially consisted of four provinces, including the provinces of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. Over the years since Confederation, Canada has seen numerous territorial changes and expansions, resulting in the current number of ten provinces and three territories.
Answer:
2.12
Explanation:
PED = % Change in Quantity demanded / % Change in price
✔️Price when quantify demanded was 8:
Substitute Q = 8 into P = 50 - 2Q
Thus:
P = 50 - 2(8)
P = 50 - 16
P = 34
✔️Price when quantify demanded was 12:
Substitute Q = 12 into P = 50 - 2Q
Thus:
P = 50 - 2(12)
P = 50 - 24
P = 26
✔️% change in price = (old price - new price)/old price × 100
Old price = 34
New price = 26
% change in price = (34 - 26)/34 × 100 ≈ 23.53 (2 d.p)
✔️% change in quantity demanded = (old quantity - new quantity)/old quantity × 100
Old quantity = 8
New quantity = 12
% change in quanty demanded = (8-12)/12 × 100 = 50%
✔️ Elasticity (PED) = 50/23.53 = 2.12 (2 d.p)
Answer: Conflict Theory
Explanation:
Sociological theories propose reasonings as to how things in our environment are socially related.
The conflict theory was borne from the idea promoted by Karl Marx who exposed the conflict between the elite and the poor in the society. This theory shades light on the dynamic aspects of the society which is essentially negative. It promotes the believe that the elites in the society use their influence to subdue the poor and in effect, keep them under control.
This is highlighted in the example found in the above question, where the elite lawmakers used their influence to ban opium drugs, simply because of their anti - Chinese sentiments. This was after the Chinese labourers had contributed to the construction of the trans continental railroad.
Answer:
(a) P(A and B)
(b) P(B | A)
(c) P(Ac | B)
(d) P(A or B)
(e) P(Bc or A)
Explanation:
The letter P that represents the probability is set out of the brackets so inside of them we can find the words that define the interaction of the elements that present the hypothesis, the sentences present variants of the symbols P(A | B) that is the general form to represent statistics, which is the conditional probability function and means the probability of event A given event B occurred.
