Answer:

There is a lack of competition on the west side of town, so the one restaurant does not need to consider the prices at other restaurants.

Explanation:

When there are multiple businesses selling a similar product, each will compete against the others to try and sell their product to consumers instead of the other businesses selling their products first. Due to this competition, the producers will list the prices based on the prices at the other businesses. Consumers are more likely to purchase cheaper products, which is why the producers will try to list their prices lower than the other producers in hopes of gaining more customers and profit.

If there is only one business in a location that has no competitors, they will list the prices on their own accord, not based on the prices at other businesses.

Because the west side only has one restaurant, their prices will likely be higher than those at other restaurants located elsewhere because the west side restaurant has no competition.

<em>Hope this helps!</em>

Deffense [45]

The right order is Cartography -> Navigational Compass -> Photography -> Internet.

Cartography - The first examples of maps used in Cartography dates back to the human pre-history. The oldest recorded route was found in Anatolia and was dated 6100-6300 BC, showing buildings and a volcano.

Navigational Compass - The first known compass was made with Lodestone, a black magnetized iron ore, during the 12th century. Chinese, European and Arab mariners used a different mechanism to make the magnetic phenomenon possible, but eventually, the lodestone was used to magnetize a needle that was floated on a small piece of wood in a small container of water.

Photography - The modern photography was established during the 19th century and was only used in a consistent manner by geographers by the end of that century.

Internet - The most recent milestone was the internet that came after the development of electronic computers in the 1950s.
