The purpose of sending troops to Vietnam was to prevent Vietnam from becoming a communist state- much like the neighbouring China did. The US feared the domino effect in which more and more neighbouring states become communist.
This policy was called the containment policy (the answer is B) - communism were to be contained.
Consumption will decrease, real output will decrease, and unemployment will increase.
You are correct! Just follow the diagram and look up the definitions of the words.
If we know that 180-5=128 that means that that equation must be equal to 128.
(2^3x+1)=128
By putting 128 into exponential form with a base of 2 you get 2^7:
(2^3x+1)=2^7
Since these have the same bases we can set the exponents equal to 7. This will give us an exponent of 3x+1=7. By Subtracting across and dividing by 3 you get:
3x=6 to 3/3x = 6/2
This gives us a final answer of:
x=2
