words stronger than words Honourable chairperson panel of others who are paresent aithe me
Answer:
Words stronger than Honorubale Chairperson
Explanation:
Answer:
Some common synonyms of honorable are conscientious, honest, just, scrupulous, and upright.What is the relationship between the price of apples and the demand for apples among Kevin's customers?
Answer:
The relationship between the price of an apple and its demand depends on many factors. These include the type of consumer, the amount of money available to spend at a given time, and how much of the product the consumer needs. In this case, the demand for apples depends primarily on the price. If the price rises, less people will be willing to buy the product; conversely, if the price falls, more people will purchase it.
When the price increases, consumers will find alternatives to purchasing the item. They may choose to purchase other goods or services that are similar in function but not as costly, or they might find another seller who is willing to go lower.
Explanation:
My own original answer.
Answer:
As the price of apples goes up, the demand for apples goes down.

EXPLAIN:
•HOW gender discrimination affects a person/s way of living?
•HOW bullying affects a person/s way of living?
•HOW child abuse affects a person/s way of living?
•HOW drug abuse affects a person/s way of living?
1. due to gender discrimination, people may suffer for multiple reasons. For example, some people looking to hire employees are only willing to hire male employees, which means women would have a hard time trying to get the job they want.
2. Bullying people may cause them to no longer want to go to school, which means their grades would drop. Eventually their lives would be over due to how nobody wishes to hire a dropout from high school.
3. People may start thinking it is OK to hurt children when they do not listen, which means they will just hurt children out in public and eventually be arrested for child abuse.
4. Drug abuse is probably the worst possible thing here. All of the above can lead to this, and drug abuse can A. kill you from overdose, B. get you sent to jail, or even C. Cause you to kill someone under the impression you are being attacked. You may even be the attacker, trying to get the drugs you are looking for.

Just mercy chapter 7 summary in own words
Answer:
Judge Patterson’s background illustrates the entrenched culture that makes it difficult to secure justice for Walter. By resisting de-segregation, which was a federally issued mandate, Patterson demonstrated his willingness to break the law in order to preserve the practice of discriminating against black people. Stevenson’s arguments, which claim that Walter’s conviction was faulty because of racial bias and illegal proceedings, likely seem irrelevant to Patterson, who has demonstrated his loyalty to racist traditions over the law. Patterson isn’t the first person in the book to question where Stevenson is from: this illustrates the importance that Stevenson places on the anti-outsider mentality he encountered in Southern courts.

education is the key to success full essay
Answer:
hope it helps you
Explanation:
*I believe education is the most important tool you can receive, that can bring you most success in society today. Education lessens the challenges you will face in life. The more knowledge you gain the more opportunities will open up to allow individuals to achieve better possibilities in career and personal growth. Education has played an important role in the career world of the twenty-first century. A person with a higher education will be easily qualified compared to a person without an extended education; as one will be prepared to do various tasks that careers demand as well as meet job standards.
I also believe education is important because it helps us develop a unique perspective of looking at life. Education has played a major role for all individuals in the society. It has allowed the community to succeed both socially and economically by enabling it to develop common culture and values. Education is the reason our world is the way it is today, doctors have been close to finding cures for cancer because of a higher education; our technology has been enriched compared to the 19th century all because of education.
If the importance of education is not recognized, then someday education will become less relevant. Education serves to unite and strengthen our country. Without education people would not be able to distinguish right from wrong. If this should happen, then our society will find itself at a large disadvantage compared to other countries. “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world” once said by a wise man name Nelson Mandela, and that is why I strongly agree why education is important.*
