into big and luscious curls‚ fake teeth‚ and a raunchy dance to complement it. There’s no doubt that the very young girls do not resemble their age when they are on stage and performing; they’re transformed into “sultry‚ Lolita-like waifs” (Giroux 270). Millions tune in and watch shows exploiting the children such as “Toddlers and Tiaras” and “Little Miss Perfect” where we see the little girls strive to be the best and prettiest. Parents should not enter their young daughters into beauty pageants

2. The demand function for a product sold by an oligopolist is given below: QD = 135 – 0.5P The firm’s marginal cost function is given below: MC = 30 + 4Q Calculate the equilibrium price and quantity. Solution: P = 270 – 2Q so TR = 270Q – 2Q2 and MR = 270 – 4Q MR = 270 – 4Q = 30 + 4Q = MC so Q = 30 and P = 210 3. An oligopolist is currently charging a price of $600 and is selling 300 units of output per day. If the firm increases price above $600‚ then quantity demanded will decline by

Calorimetry: Enthalpy of Neutralization Introduction: The purpose of this lab experiment was to determine the molar concentration of the unknown HCl by using a coffee cup calorimeter. A coffee cup calorimeter is made of Styrofoam cups with a thermometer that is placed from the top and into the calorimeter to measure the temperature as the reaction happens. The Styrofoam cup used for the calorimeter creates an isolated system as it acts as a heat insulator between the cup and the surrounding
