Read the paragraph. Violence in video games is essentially to blame for violence in our society. When children are bombarded wit

h monstrous images, they begin to think that these types of actions are normal or acceptable. Children and teenagers are spending excessive numbers of hours playing video games, and they may begin to use them as a guideline for how to act and behave. Even if they do not perform violent actions, they may become less sensitive to the thoughts and feelings of others because of what they see reflected in these games. What effect does the word bombarded have on the paragraph?

The usage of the word 'bombarded' fits perfectly with the argument provided  in the text. It actually highlights the whole claim against the violent component of the information that is constantly reaching the brains of children when playin modern computer games, by using a verb derived from the word 'bomb'. It gives a subliminal but extra strength to the argument explained by the author.

What would tortilla manufacturers have needed to do in order to make the same profit
saw5 [17]

This is the full question:

Consider this scenario. During the early 2000s, the Midwestern United States experienced a drought, or lack of rainfall. This ruined large amounts of the corn crop. Tortillas, which are made from corn, became more expensive to make. What would tortilla manufacturers have needed to do in order to make the same profit?

Answer:

increase the price of tortillas

Explanation:

To put in simply:

Profit = Total sales - Total expense

Total sales : Quantity sold x Selling price.

From the excerpt, we know that the total expense for the tortillas is increased because of the drought.

Because Profit = Total sales - Total expense

the manufacturer need to increase its total sales in order to get the same amount of profit.

They can either do this by increasing the price of the product or increasing the quantity sold. But since expensive materials is what caused the problem to begin with, it is very hard for the company to increase the quanitty sold. increasing the price of tortillas is a more logical approach
