Answer:
A) If it weren’t for Francis Pizarro’s, the Inca Empire would have continued to expand and prosper.
Explanation:
Consider, for example, we are told at the outset, "When Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro landed in Peru in 1532, he found unimaginable riches. The Inca Empire was in full bloom."
However, we were told that Pizarro captured and requested ransom from the last Inca emperor Atahualpa. What was the outcome?

Answer:
At the start of the seventeenth century, the English had not established a permanent settlement in the Americas. Over the next century, however, they outpaced their rivals. The English encouraged emigration far more than the Spanish, French, or Dutch. They established nearly a dozen colonies, sending swarms of immigrants to populate the land. England had experienced a dramatic rise in population in the sixteenth century, and the colonies appeared a welcoming place for those who faced overcrowding and grinding poverty at home. Thousands of English migrants arrived in the Chesapeake Bay colonies of Virginia and Maryland to work in the tobacco fields. Another stream, this one of pious Puritan families, sought to live as they believed scripture demanded and established the Plymouth, Massachusetts Bay, New Haven, Connecticut, and Rhode Island colonies of New England.

Answer:
There is a great deal of independence and personal choice. The government cannot dictate which jobs citizens hold.There may be greater opportunity to become wealthy.Explanation:
A Market Economy is one where the Government has minimal influence and the conditions in the market are mostly determined by the rules of Supply and Demand. In such an economy, people are generally free to engage in the business that they want to meaning that they have independence and there personal choice is taken into account.
The Government with its minimal influence, cannot dictate which jobs its citizens hold as it is the citizens' choice what jobs and businesses to get themselves involved in.
There is also a greater opportunity to be wealthy as there is independence of enterprise. As the market is not Government controlled, one can engage in profitable business opportunities for themselves and take home the profits made instead of giving it to the Government.

The next best option given up when individuals or firms choose something else is called a(n) _____.
A. trade
B. regret
C. opportunity cost
D. increased expense
Answer:
A fundamental concept in economics is that of scarcity. In contrast to its colloquial usage, scarcity in economics connotes not that something is nearly impossible to find, but simply that it is not unlimited. For example, the number of available hours in a day is a scarce resource: there is a finite amount of time available to you to do work, hang out with friends, and relax. Most resources are scarce in most situations.
Since resources tend to be scarce, anyone that uses the resource has to make a decision about how to use it. Suppose, for example, that you are a drink manufacturer. To produce a beverage, you have to use some scarce resources: the plastic for the bottle, the workers’ time, a machine to fill the bottles, etc. If you choose to make one bottle of water, you have chosen to not make a bottle of soda. Your scarce resources force you to make a choice and a trade-off producing one product or another.
