What price trends have you noticed over the last few years? Do the prices fluctuate? Have prices increased or decreased?
How would you use what you have learned concerning Supply and Demand to explain these trends?
Have there ever been any shortages or surpluses? How would you explain that?
The tendency of prices is to increase because the supply of non-renewable raw materials decreases over time.
What is a price trend?A price trend is an economic term that refers to the behavior of the prices of a product or service over time.
In general, the prices of products are increasing for various reasons, including the decrease in supply of raw materials and inflation that grows every year.
Additionally, there are other prices that decrease because a greater quantity of goods of the same type is offered or their production becomes cheaper.
As for the surplus or shortage, it can be stated that raw materials such as water and oil are in a decreasing trend, so they can run out in the medium or long term. This would influence the production and life of humans in the future.
Due to the above, factories have had to invest in research to replace these raw materials and manufacture their products from other materials.

Finally a farmer who is forcing people to work for him is the answer because they are doing it out of force rather than of free will or with compensation.

Explain two negative effects of Manifest destiny. They both have to be 5-6 sentences long. I’ll give brainliest to the best answer
So, the term "Manifest Destiny" refers to the belief that the United States was not only capable of, but also destined to, extend from coast to coast during the 19th century period of American development. This attitude helped fuel western settlement, Native American removal and war with Mexico. It implies that everything we are going to accomplish has already been planned.
Some of the cons of Manifest Destiny are Native American tribes being massacred, Mexico being forced into war and suffering a humiliating defeat in 1849, the United States continued its involvement further into Latin America, and Manifest Destiny continued into Hawaii and Asian continent.
The Native Americans had little regard for Manifest Destiny; whether they were vanquished and displaced by the United States or by Mexico made little difference to them. California, Utah, New Mexico, and Arizona were taken from Mexico as a result of the American war with Mexico and the doctrine of Manifest Destiny. Because Mexico's ties with the Native Americans were as terrible as those of the United States of America, the Native Americans would have been just as badly off if Mexico had held that land. The majority of the Apache chief Goyaale's war career was spent battling Mexico rather than the USA. He is better known to us by his Spanish name Geronimo. Similar to how the entrance of the Americans did, the Spanish and subsequently Mexican missions in California brought with them sickness, dispossession, and forced labor. Whether California is controlled by Mexico or the United States, if gold is discovered there, the entire globe will swarm there, bringing sickness and bloodshed to the unfortunate locals. Mexican forces continued to put down Native American uprisings in Chiapas as late as 1994.
The transcontinental railroad, though, is the unpredictable factor. Mexico lacked the industrial might of the United States and would have found it challenging to construct its own railroads into the West. On the other hand, it might have hired American businesses to construct railways, which would have prevented Mexico from being delayed by the divisions that America experienced (the North wanted a northern transcontinental railroad, the South wanted a southern one, which was the main reason it took until after the Civil War to get it built). Because they control how rapidly the bison herds are wiped out, railways have a big impact on how quickly the Native Americans are vanquished. The construction of the transcontinental railroad and the terrible loss of Native American sovereignty may happen much sooner or much later than they did historically if Manifest Destiny were not a factor.
explain the frustration that many voters and politicians have with gerrymandering. Explain how it can lead to wasted votes.
The efficiency gap measure of gerrymandering, which involves placing voters into electoral districts in a way that increases the wasted votes of one political faction and decreases the wasted votes of the other, is based on wasted votes.
By drawing electoral district lines to benefit certain political interests inside legislative bodies, a technique known as gerrymandering, districts are frequently created that have twisted, tangled boundaries rather than compact ones. It is the process of redistricting legislative districts to suit the ruling political party.
Because the ruling party will do all it takes to increase the advantage of its rival in its stronger districts, gerrymandering has an unintended negative impact on congressional elections.
This is unjust because it gives some voters less sway than others, skews the vote in one direction, prolongs the tenure of the incumbent, and increases the likelihood that members of the incumbent's party will win office in subsequent elections.

Effect of the war of 1812 on the society. 5-6 sentences
Henry Clay, a negotiator at Ghent and one of the greatest political actors of his age, summed up three points that the United States had gained from the treaty of Ghent.
1-The British reputation had suffered at Ghent, not the Americans
2- By standing up singlehandedly to the mightiest power on Earth, the United States had established its national character
3- In the ordeal of war and peace, the republican government born of the Revolution had met the crucial test
In addition I would add a few other points. The powerful Indian nations of the Southwest and Northwest that had been able to play off off rival Western powers against each other for generations lay defeated. The United States was able to acquire large amounts of territory in the Southwest, which can be seen here. Secondly while the United States filibusters had failed in their attempts to acquire East Florida, they managed to hold onto West Florida. The late war victories ushered in a degree of unprecedented nationalism leading to the drastic expansion of Federal power far exceeding the Federalist era of 1788-1800, many of these programs are difficult to explain absent a new emerging American nationalism, which can be read more in The Awakening of American Nationalism: 1815 - 1828 by George Dangerfield. Some of these new institutions and programs included but are not limited to: The Second Bank of the United States ( similar to the first but on more Republican principles), The drastic expansion of the United States Navy in 1817, the first protective tariff in American history to protect growing American industry, Federal support for the colonization society, the first Federal pension. Others have argued that the war increased the pace of liberalization within the United States and increased the pace of the market revolution (a term no longer in favor) see The Republic Reborn: War and the Making of Liberal America, 1790-1820.
To expand a bit, what was the point of the whole affair? Was it really about impressment of American sailors into the British navy, which is the only reason I remember for the war from high school
In short no it wasn't just about impressment. Until 1811 in fact the main point of contention between the United States and Britain had been over trade issues. A cornerstone of Republican ideology for both Madison and Jefferson was that free ships made free goods, and that the free transfer of goods around the world would serve as a carrier for Republicanism. The ongoing wars in Europe had resulted in both France and Britain imposing sanctions on neutral vessels, the United States was one of the largest merchant states in the western world and the largest neutral carrier and the restrictions fell hard on the Republic. Events like the Chesapeake-leopard affair hardened attitudes in the United States towards Britain.Moreover Britain had grown fearful over the dramatic expansion of the American merchant fleet, and while willing to give concessions to smaller carriers like Sweden, was not willing to do so for the United States. You also had British support for the native peoples in the Northwest. Finally political relations between Republicans and Federalists had grown increasingly hostile, and Britain was viewed as popularly supporting the Federalist minority, see America on the Brink:How the Political Struggle Over the War of 1812 Almost Destroyed the Young Republic for the struggle between Federalists and Republicans that is particularly harsh on the Federalist for Anglo-American relations see Bradford Perkins Prologue to War:Prologue to War: England and the United States, 1805-1812.
Did the US "win" the war? I always had the impression that the British mainly couldn't be bothered to fight much (being busy with the whole Napoleon thing) and the victories the US achieved (USS Constitution, Lake Champlain, New Orleans) were not that strategically significant.
Evaluate your work by answering these questions: Did you draw original inferences? How did this activity help you better understand the history of the Cold War? Did you look at anything in a different way? Note what you learned and what challenged you.
The inference that can be drawn about the Cold War is that the United States wanted to remain powerful and did not want the Soviet Union to increase its power base.
What happened in the Cold War?This refers to the conflict that existed between the Soviet Union and the United States about the spread of communism and this led to economic sanctions and many other non-violent tactics by both sides.
Hence, we can see that the conflict almost escalated to a crescendo during the Cuban Missile Crisis when the Soviets kept weapons with strike capabilities to the United States in Cuba.
