What problems did Curtis face because he
could not read?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Ponyboy is faced with a number of conflicts throughout the novel. The most obvious conflict is the one between him and his older brother Darry, who after their parents’ death, took over as the family’s breadwinner and guardian to Ponyboy and Soda. Darry always reprimands Ponyboy whenever he is on the wrong but Ponyboy thinks that Darry is too harsh on him and does not love him like he does Sodapop. Ponyboy writes, “…Me and Darry just didn’t dig each other. I never could please him. He would have hollered at me for carrying a blade if I had carried one. If I brought home B’s, he wanted A’s, and if I got A’s, he wanted to make sure they stayed A’s. ..He never hollered at Sodapop, not even when Sodapop dropped out of school or got tickets for speeding. He just hollered at me.

Answer 2

Which of the following is NOT a factor of production? Land Labor Government Capital

Answers

Answer:

Goods and services are not factors of production.

Factors of production are inputs that are needed to provide goods or services. They include, land, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship.

Further Explanation:

Factors of reproduction  

Factors of reproduction or resources are inputs or resources that are used in the generation of goods and services with an aim of making profit.

There are four main factors of production which include; Land, Labor, Capital and Entrepreneurship.

Land  

This refers to all the natural resources that are available to be used in the production of goods.

These natural resources includes raw materials from the ground, non-renewable resources such as petroleum and renewable resources such as timber.

The income or reward earned from land as a factor of production is rent.

Labor  

This refers to the manpower or work done by human beings.

The value of labor depends on the skills, education and motivation of workers.  

The reward for labor as a factor of production is wages and salaries.

Capital  

This refers to the capital goods, that is, man-made objects that are used for production of goods and services such as machinery, equipment and chemicals.

They also include industries and commercial buildings.

The reward or income earned from capital goods is interest  

Entrepreneurship  

It involves coming up with an idea and developing it into profitable business.

An entrepreneur is therefore an individual who combines the other factors of production to build a business and add the supply in the economy.

The reward or income earned by entrepreneurs is profit.
