Answer:

Explanation:

Fairness according to Oxford dictionary is defined as "impartial and just treatment or behaviour without favouritism or discrimination".

Fairness is a treatment that is just and reasonable in accordance with acceptable rules or principles. It involves giving people equal opportunity but does not guarantee equal outcome.

The concept of fairness is important because it ensures that everyone is treated justly, no partiality. It guarantees the enthronement of merit. It is about providing a level playing field which will in turn promote social justice. Fairness is about decision making rather than outcome.

Read the rough-draft paragraph.
aivan3 [116]

The statement which best describes the mistake the writer makes in the paragraph is the following one:

The writer loses focus and shifts to another topic.

He starts off by pointing out the overall benefits of exercising, and supports his idea by also giving examples of activities people should engage in. However, focus is lost when the writer begins to address the importance of a balanced diet to the body. That would require a new paragraph.

Which scenario is an example of understatement?
8_murik_8 [283]

The answer is C: A teacher assigns a 10 page research project and says, "this might take a little time".

An understatement is a statement that underplays the significance, value, size, relevance or importance of something and it makes it seem considerable less than what it actually is. In this example, the teacher makes it seem like writing a 10 page essay will take just “a little time”, when in fact, any student knows that a 10 page essay in a considerable enterprise that will take a lot more than just a little time.

what values does president reagan suggest all americans share in his appeals to their sense of patriotism?
Zepler [3.9K]
Freedom, economic prosperity, opportunity and the rule of law were some of the values mentioned by President Reagan in Christmas talk about the family in the US. Presumably he meant these were values shared by many Americans. While these are nice sounding phrases, I believe that many Americans would doubt that they benefitted supposedly from the implementation of these policies and they certainly weren't meant for other countries such as Nicaragua where he backed the contras to fight the Sandinista's who were trying to implement these things for the vast majority of the people who had suffered so much under Somoza.
