Answer: decide the issues that are important to bring to public attention.
Explanation:
Agenda-setting theory simply refers to the way the media influences news. In this case, when a particular news is covered more, the audience will believe that such need is more vital than other news.
The agenda-setting function of the media refers to the power to decide the issues that are important to bring to public attention.
Most companies that contribute to pollution do not do it because they are run by bad people. They do it because emitting pollution into the air or water is cheaper than treating and cleaning the materials they use in production. When production is cheaper, the price of goods is cheaper and the company is more competitive relative to other companies. To limit or eliminate this pollution, government has enacted laws, such as the Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act, to make polluting illegal. Do you think it is government’s job to use laws to control these negative externalities? Why or why not? What, if any, private sector, nongovernmental measures might work just as well? Use examples in your answer.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
I think it is the government’s job to use laws to control these negative externalities but it is also the job of those company owners to have high ethical conduct and high morals to know that they are polluting the air and the water. So they had to be the first to have the initiative to come with a solution or a good plan to minimize air and water pollution, because one way or the other, they are poisoning the air and our waters.
Private sector and nongovernmental measures might work just as well if people have the consciousness of the damage they are doing with their policies.
What I am trying to say is that the federal and state government could have great environmental laws and regulations, but that is why they are laws, to be enforced. The issue is that, if company owners would be ethical and professional people, from the very beginning they should have implemented the right measures to minimize pollution, and not waiting until the law enforce them to comply with legislation.
ONe thing is to be forced to do something, knowing that there will be negative consequences if you do not do what you are told. And another completely different thing is to do things because you have principles, high values, and morals that always invite you to do things right.

Why did the Germans invade the Soviet Union, even though they had a non-aggression pact with Stalin?
Answer:
Below
Explanation:
Despite the mutual non-aggression pact, the Soviets and the Germans were not on good terms. The Nazis were against the spread of communism, and the Soviets were against Nazi ideologies. During 1939, both of these nations had their reasons for staying neutral, but once those reasons were gone, it was only a matter of time before they clashed with each other. Even while fighting in France, Hitler had his doubts about Stalin and stationed some reserve troops on the Eastern border.

Uranium-235 has a half-life of 700 million years. How many years will it take Uranium-235 to decay to 1/8 of its original mass?
Answer: 2.1 billion years
Explanation:
The half-life of an element refers to the amount of time it would take for half of its mass to decay.
In 700 million years, Uranium - 235 will be 1/2 of its original mass.
If divided by 2, the 1/2 becomes 1/4 which is the proportion of the original mass the Uranium would get to after another 700 million years.
Dividing by another would get the Uranium-235 to 1/8 of its original value and would take another 700 million years.
Total time taken:
= 700 + 700 + 700
= 2,100 million years
= 2.1 billion years

How do migration patterns impact women differently? What can governments do to protect women from the negative effects of migration?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached or specific context, we can comment on the following.
Migration patterns impact women differently because depending on their own circumstances and the country in which they live, women are exposed to many different things that affect them and their children.
For instance, in many Central American countries such as El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Honduras, men leave their homes to immigrate to the United States. Meanwhile, women stay at home with their children, living the exact same problems: poverty, hunger, disease, and lack of opportunities. So if the husband can cross the US-México border and get a decent job in the United States, that is a matter of luck and the pass of time. During that process, women have to feed and protect their children under the worst of circumstances. And that is a major issue for women.
What governments can do to protect women from the negative effects of migration is to establish a series of programs and legislation that protect women while their husbands are away trying to get a fortune in the United States, for instance. This means that the government should invest to spend some money on social programs to guarantee basic living standards for mothers and children. For example, the opportunity to access health systems and public education to their children.
Explain how humans communicate nonverbally. How do genders differ in terms of nonverbal communication?
Answer:
Non-verbal communication is one in which people use communicative means other than language, that is, they do not use the word and its meaning to convey a message, but rather through gestures, body expressions, movements, looks, images, etc., that is, appealing to the human senses without using language as a communication channel.
In principle, there are no major differences in how each gender communicates non-verbally with each other or with the other, except in matters of love attraction, where clothing, postures and looks play a fundamental role.
Which of the following best describes the effects of industrialization on both
urban and rural areas of the United States during the late 19th century?
Answer: C. Industrialization created factory jobs in urban areas while eliminating agricultural jobs in rural areas.
Explanation:
In the late 19th century, industrialization was in full swing and technology was being created that made farming more efficient. This led to a loss of jobs for people in the rural areas who depended mostly on farming.
These people then had to move to urban areas where industrialization had led to the construction of factories that required more labor. This significantly increased rural to urban migration.
Answer:
C. Industrialization created factory jobs in urban areas while eliminating agricultural jobs in rural areas.

Stock Y has a beta of 1.0 and an expected return of 12.4 percent. Stock Z has a beta of 6
and an expected return of 8.2 percent.
What would the risk-free rate have to be for the two stocks to be correctly priced? (Do
not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2
decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer: Risk free rate = 1.9%
Explanation:
The Capital Asset Pricing Model allows for the calculation of the required return using the market return, beta and risk free rate.
Required return = Risk free rate + Beta * ( Market return - Risk free rate)
First find the market rate. Stock Y is uniquely positioned to help with that:
12.4% = Risk free rate + 1.0 * (Market return - Risk free rate)
12.4% = rf + Market return - rf
Market return = 12.4%
Apply this to the formula using Stock Z:
8.2% = rf + 0.6 * (12.4% - rf)
8.2% = rf + 7.44% - 0.6rf
rf - 0.6rf = 8.2% - 7.44%
0.4rf = 0.76%
rf = 0.76% / 0.4
Risk free rate = 1.9%

All of the following are examples of third-party ownership of a life insurance policy EXCEPT
A When an insured purchased a new home, the insured made an absolute assignment of a life insurance policy to
the mortgage company.
B An insured borrows money from the bank and makes a collateral assignment of a part of the death benefit to
secure the loan.
An insured couple purchases a life insurance policy insuring the life of their grandson.
A company purchases a life insurance policy on their manager, who is an important part of the operation.
Answer: B. An insured borrows money from the bank and makes a collateral assignment of a part of the death benefit to secure the loan.
Explanation:
A collateral assignment allows a person to use their life insurance policy as collateral when taking out a loan. It is therefore based on a life insurance policy ownership, but isn't one itself.
It works by allowing the creditor to be able to get back whatever is owed to them when the debtor dies by claiming it from the proceeds of the debtor's life insurance policy.
