The opportunity cost of reaching $50 for your birthday and spending it on new wallpaper for your room is: not having money anymore but having wallpaper. Opportunity cost is defined as what you are giving up to gain something else. In opportunity cost, you are always making a decision out of possible alternatives.

Answer:

There are actually a few different answers that I came up with... The price of the wallpaper that you bought, the other items that you could have purchased with your $50, and the time you could have spent doing other things.

Explanation:

Remember that an opportunity cost is the trade-off of purchasing one thing versus purchasing another thing. (DICTIONARY DEFINITION - the loss of potential gain from other alternatives when one alternative is chosen).

Hope that helps!!

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

It is here where the king makes a connection between the size of Gulliver and other humans and their moral weakness. He Is obviously disgusted at the human thirst for power and at what lengths are we willing to take it:

"The king was struck by horror by the description I had given of those terrible engines, at the proposal I had made. He was amazed how so impotent and groveling an insect as I could entertain such inhuman ideas, and in so familiar a manner as to appear wholly unmoved at all the scenes of blood and desolation, which I had painted as the common effects of those destructive machines."

Explanation:

"Gulliver's Travels", a novel from 1726, is divided in four parts: by Lemuel Gulliver, first a surgeon, and then a captain of several ships by the Irish writer and clergyman Jonathan Swift, a full-length prose satire on both human nature and the "travellers' tales". In this novel the theme is moral correctness vs mental or physical strength, and it as a classic of English literature "to vex the world rather than divert it" turning to an immediate universally read success masterpiece.

Tamiku [17]
<span>D is the most correct answer. With the availability heuristic, the most recent example of a situation is the one that will stick in a person's mind most readily. With the example of the starving polar bear, Mr. Young is most easily swayed to the extensiveness of climate change than through any information that might have come to him less recently.</span>
