The United States is an interesting case of the “haves” and the “have nots” considering it’s one of the wealthiest nations in the world and yet there are still those who sleep on the street. Bambara’s illustration in “The Lesson” serves as an exposé on the mentality, self-esteem, and environment primarily of the “have nots.” The pivotal

Applying Concepts Team D MTH-220 June 30, 2014 Wayne Neidhardt Applying Concepts Solve To solve and graph the equation provided using the system of inequalities formula, one must find the x and y intercepts. Our first equation will be written as 50x+20y+230≤ 1500. First to find our x intercept, we will let y=0. Our equation will be written as 50x+200+230=1500. Next we want to solve for x, by deducting 230 from 1500 and dividing 50 from both side to get x=1270/50. Our x intercept will be

started passing out the test. I had to get a 100% on this test. Everyone had always expected me to do well on everything. This incident has reminded me that even though our society has greatly improved in terms of equality for all, we still have work to do.

It is often said that we learn from our past, but is that really true? Inequalities have existed in our society for thousands of years; from the kings verses the surfs in medieval times, to the treatment of slaves, to the inequalities of women. Today we still have people who face prejudice and inequality every day. If we really learn from our past, why does inequality still exist? Why can’t we live to the belief that “all men are created equal?” Our society today is, however, a lot better than it

initiative. They could be someone who was willing to create rational and moral judgements for society or a thug who had no moral responsibilities such as a thug who was aware of how irrational the society really is. The character from her novel Anthem Equality 7-2125 would certainly agree with her as he is a person in the former group.

Equality Everywhere Imagine two societies where in one, the manes of all people are normal and in another, they aren’t. Now, imagine how they would both focus on the term “equality”.

Both Harrison Bergeron and Anthem have societies focused on equality, but a big difference between the two are the character names. The names

Question 1 1.1) Southern hemisphere 1.2) 1110km 1.3) 15 ̊S 20 W is closer to the equator 1.4) 3600 seconds in a degree of longitude or latitude. Question 2 Map scale is the relationship between the distance on a map and the distance in reality. Map scales can be represented as a scale ratio, a word statement or a graphic line scale. Example of a scale ratio would be 1:2500 and the word statement would be 1 cm on the map equals 25m on the ground, while a line scale is a line on the map representing

“Suddenly they were not submissive anymore” (Duberman 144). These were the words of Deputy Inspector Pine that were used in response to the Stonewall Inn Riots that took place in 1969.
