A Production possibilities curve or Production possibilities frontier is a graph that shows the amount of production two products achieve when the given resources are efficiently utilized per unit of time. When the graph shifts outward or to the right, then the production of both products went up, but when the curve shifts to the left or inward, then the production of both products went down. Of all the options given, the only one that decreases the rate and amount of production (causing an inward shift) would be option D: "Two metalsmiths catch a viral infection and take sick days". Options A, B and C are all causes for an outward shift in the curve.

The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by the question is the fourth choice "<span>Two metalsmiths catch a viral infection and take sick days."</span><span>

</span>This causes output to increase, so the production possibilities curve shifts<span> outward, or to the right. On the other hand, let's say a major war causes destruction of capital equipment in the country. This would cause output to decrease, so in this case, the </span>production possibilities curve shifts inward<span>, or to the left.</span>

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!

Karishma is reading "The Tell-Tale Heart." She reads an excerpt, looks for clues, and makes a prediction about what happens next
11111nata11111 [884]

The correct answer is C. The old man becomes aware of a frightening presence in the room.

Explanation:

Making predictions about a text involves analyzing the details provided and with these trying to guess the next action or event in a story. Moreover, predictions should be adjusted according to new details. In this context, Karishma will need to include the new information "the old man sprang up in bed, crying out—"Who's there?" in her prediction. Therefore the best new prediction is "The old man becomes aware of a frightening presence in the room" because the noise makes the old man react and realize there is a strange presence in the room.

STatiana [176]

Hello. You forgot to enter the answer options. The options are:

She wants to gain control of the situation.

She is shocked by his insults.

She has sympathy for the fellow Austrian.

She plans to confess her crimes.

Answer:

She wants to gain control of the situation.

Explanation:

In the text above we can see that the officer is totally out of control, shouting and making a scandal in front of Miep, who remains calm and focused, without reacting to all the shouting that the officer is emitting. Miep does this to keep control of the situation in her hands and to stand in favor of her actions, showing courage and showing that she doesn’t tackle anything, more than that, when taking control of the situation Miep shows that she is correct and that there is no need for despair and scandals when you are correct.

How does the way people treat the old man change over the course of the story and how does this develop the theme?
notka56 [123]

Answer:

Two supernatural occurrences in the story are the old man that has wings and a spider girl.

Explanation:

The old man in the story is treated as a strange man of nature, not as a supernatural creature. His status of an angel is often talked about, as many consider him to be an angel.

Another supernatural characteristic of the old man is his incredible patience in the face of his treatment of people who are happy to exploit him until bored with him.
