Answer:
The difference between the Prime Meridian and 75 degrees West is 5 hours.
Explanation:
The world is divided by imaginary lines for the purposes and needs of humans. The vertical lines that move from one pole to another are called meridians. One of their purposes is to help in orientation with time and establishing time zones across the globe.
The Prime Meridian is the starting point that is considered as central time, with all of the time zones east of it having minus in front of them, while all of the time zones west of it have a plus in front of them. There are 360 degrees in total when it comes to meridians, and since there are 24 hours, each time zone has been set on 15 degrees difference. In this case, we have 75 degrees West, meaning that the difference between that longitude and the Prime Meridian is 5 hours (75 / 15 = 5), with plus standing in front of it, thus +5.

Mr. Brennan wins the lottery. What will happen to his demand for bigger houses?
Answer: Increase
Explanation:
There is an economic notion that holds that a person's preference is independent of their current income. This means that given more income, people will generally demand more expensive things.
This is the case here. Mr. Brennan may not have been able to afford big houses before winning the lottery but now that he can, he would probably want more big houses. This translates to an increase in his demand for them.

The presence of American fast food restaurants in Russia offers evidence that the former Soviet Union is?
The answer is: influenced by the consumer culture of the
West.
Answer:
The former Soviet Union is influenced by the consumer culture of the West.
Explanation:
The former Soviet Union was a communist country that had a command economy. This type of economy meant that the economy is closed to the world and people had no choice when it came to consumption, but only what the government decided they will consume. With the fall of the Soviet Union, this changed, at least in most parts.
Most of the countries that emerged from the Soviet Union have transformed or are still transitioning toward open market economies. This opened up the economies which resulted in a lot of foreign investments, fascilities, and brands coming to these markets. Being totally restricted until then, when people suddenly had an opportunity to choose what they want to buy and consume, they jumped on it. Very soon a consumer culture, typical for the West has developed. This can not be said about the likes of Belarus, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan though, as they are still closed to the world.
Stark political divisions in a country where one political party is most popular in the rural areas while another is more popular in urban and suburban areas would have what effect on the country? A. centrifugal B. centripetal C. colonial D. devolution
Answer:
This will have a centrifugal effect on a country.
Explanation:
If we have a situation where a country's population is divided because of political views, with people from rural areas supporting one, and people from urban and suburban areas supporting another one, the country will most probably experience a centrifugal effect. The centrifugal effect is a negative effect for a country because it causes division and potential break up.
In this case, it is not just that people vote for two different political parties, but the problem is that the voting is related to particular groups of people with different types of lifestyles and views in life. This always tends to cause problems, often starting with fierce debates and protests, but occasionally ending up with violence and separatism.

Why would people choose to settle near
the coast in countries like Libya,
Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia? What benefits
does this location offer to people?
PLSSS HURRY
Answer:
People choose to settle along the coast because the interior of these countries is not suitable for life.
Explanation:
The countries in Northern Africa like Libya, Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia, have almost all of their populations settled along or very near the coastlines. There are slight variations among the population patterns in these countries, but the general rule, except in Morocco, is that the interiors have little to no population and settlements.
The reason for this is very simple, lack of living conditions in the interior. While the coastline has multiple benefits for the people, like Mediterranean climate, patches of good soil, access to sea, easy movement of goods and people, the interior is the total opposite. The inteior is a hot desert, part of the Sahara Desert. There is little to no water, no soil, no sources of food, little to no natural resources, no infrastructre, and very dangerous sandstorms.

How did the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War alter the map of
Eastern Europe and Central Asia? What potential problems could emerge as a result of these alterations?
Answer:
The collapse of the Soviet Union resulted in the creation of multiple new countries in Eastern Europe and Central Asia. A potential problem of this was the rise of nationalism and expansionism.
Explanation:
The Soviet Union, even though heavily centralized, was actually a federation of numerous states, with Russia being the absolute owner of power in it. As the Soviet Union started to fall apart, multiple of these federal states managed to gain independence, thus changing the map of Eastern Europe and Central Asia by creating numerous new political entities.
wOne problem that was a potential problem, developed, but still haven't made a big problem was the rise of nationalism and expansionist politics. Many countries wanted to have territory that belonged to other countries because they thought that it belongs to them traditionally. Luckily, most of these tensions have been sorted out diplomatically, with the only incidents occurring in Central Asia, mostly because of Uzbek aggression toward Tajik and Kyrgyz populations.

What are some of the potential long-term effects of the remittances by North African migrants?
Answer:
The long-term effects of the remittances by North African migrants will be damaging to the economy of the country in which they work.
Explanation:
Europe, especially its western and northern parts, have more and more migrants as the decades go by. One of the regions from where there is a very big percentage of migrants in North Africa, with the majority of them being economic migrants. Very often, the migrants from this region will be men without their families, working in a European country but sending the money back in their countries to their families.
This type of economic activity by the migrants is called remittance. While the intentions of the migrants are good as they want to support their families back in their native country, it is not a process that is good for the economy of the host country. With millions of people engaging in such activity, the European economies come in a situation where North African migrants take money out of their economy and send that money in another country's economy, thus making it harder and harder to balance things, and this eventually will lead to economic collapse if it is not resolved on time.
