Twelve Tribes of Israel, in the Bible, the Hebrew people who, after the death of Moses, took possession of the Promised Land of Canaan under the leadership of Joshua. Because the tribes were named after sons or grandsons of Jacob, whose name was changed to Israel after he wrestled an angel of the Lord, the Hebrew people became known as Israelites.

AREAS OF INVOLVEMENT
Judaism
Tribe
Jacob’s first wife, Leah, bore him six sons: Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun. Each was the father of a tribe, though Levi’s descendants (among whom were Moses and Aaron), the priests and temple functionaries, were dispersed among the other tribes and received no tribal land of their own. Two other tribes, Gad and Asher, were named after sons born to Jacob and Zilpah, Leah’s maidservant. Two additional tribes, Dan and Naphtali, were named after sons of Jacob born of Bilhah, the maidservant of Rachel, Jacob’s second wife. Rachel bore Jacob two sons, Joseph and Benjamin. The tribe of Benjamin provided Israel with its first king, Saul, and was later assimilated into the tribe of Judah. While no tribe bore the name of Joseph, two tribes were named after Joseph’s sons, Manasseh and Ephraim. The 10 tribes that settled in northern Palestine and were carried into captivity by the Assyrians became known as the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel.

The Law of Demand states that more of a product will be purchased at lower prices than at higher prices.
ratelena [41]
Yes, this is correct.

Crucially, this is only the case if everything else stays equal: so if the quality of the product stays the same and if the income of the buyers doesn't decrease.

Then with a lower prize, more items will be purchased - and less if the prize increases.

Which of the following had the greatest effect on businesses and jobs in the late 1900s?
motikmotik

Answer:

trade agreements with other countries

Explanation:

The invention of the automobile was in the EARLY 1900s, not the late.  The development of the computer did not really effect / impact lives until 1990s and so does not really fit the question.  The shopping malls could be an answer, but I think trade agreements is the best answer.
