What emergency powers has Congress given to the president in times of crisis

Answers

When the President declares a national emergency, no powers or authorities made available by statute for use in the event of an emergency shall be exercised unless and until the President specifies the provisions of law under which he proposes that he, or other officers will act.

Answer:

The President to reallocate funds from other federal governmental operations, and the Defense Production Act, which permits the President to require companies to make supplies necessary for national defense and to prohibit price gouging.

The President might also be able to argue that he can do other things based on the emergency, but we have no emergency powers clause in the US Constitution and courts have generally been reluctant to grant the executive such powers by implication.

Answer:

Y=2x+2 is    Slope     =  4.000/2.000 =  2.000     Y=3x is    Slope     =  6.000/2.000 =  3.000 .

Explanation:

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    y-(2*x+2)=0

Equation of a Straight Line

1.1     Solve   y-2x-2  = 0

Tiger recognizes that we have here an equation of a straight line. Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b ("y=mx+c" in the UK).

"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.

In this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line  y-2x-2  = 0 and calculate its properties

Graph of a Straight Line :

 

Calculate the Y-Intercept :

Notice that when x = 0 the value of y is 2/1 so this line "cuts" the y axis at y= 2.00000

 y-intercept = 2/1  =  2.00000

Calculate the X-Intercept :

When y = 0 the value of x is 1/-1 Our line therefore "cuts" the x axis at x=-1.00000

 x-intercept = 2/-2 = 1/-1  = -1.00000

Calculate the Slope :

Slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x. We note that for x=0, the value of y is 2.000 and for x=2.000, the value of y is 6.000. So, for a change of 2.000 in x (The change in x is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of 6.000 - 2.000 = 4.000 in y. (The change in y is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE / RUN)

   Slope     =  4.000/2.000 =  2.000

Geometric figure: Straight Line

 Slope = 4.000/2.000 = 2.000

 x-intercept = 2/-2 = 1/-1 = -1.00000

 y-intercept = 2/1 = 2.00000

German strategy, from 1943

From late 1942 German strategy, every feature of which was determined by Hitler, was solely aimed at protecting the still very large area under German control—most of Europe and part of North Africa—against a future Soviet onslaught on the Eastern Front and against future Anglo-U.S. offensives on the southern and western fronts. The Germans’ vague hopes that the Allies would shrink from such costly tasks or that the “unnatural” coalition of Western capitalism and Soviet Communism would break up before achieving victory were disappointed, so Hitler, in accordance with his dictum that “Germany shall either be a world power or not be at all,” consciously resolved to preside over the downfall of the German nation. He gave inflexible orders whereby whole armies were made to stand their ground in tactically hopeless positions and were forbidden to surrender under any circumstances. The initial success of this strategy in preventing a German rout during the Soviet winter counteroffensive of 1941–42 had blinded Hitler to its impracticability in the very different military circumstances on the Eastern Front by 1943, by which time the Germans simply lacked sufficient numbers of troops to defend an extremely long front against much more numerous Soviet forces. (By December 1943 the 3,000,000 German troops there were opposed by about 5,500,000 Soviet troops.) The strategy of keeping his armies stationary was made easier for Hitler by the complete ascendancy he had achieved over his generals, who disputed with Hitler only at the risk of losing their commands or worse. Frequent changes were made in the command of the various army groups and armies, with the result that during 1943–44 most of the talented commanders who had been associated with Germany’s past successes were removed, and everyone who was suspected of a critical attitude at headquarters was silenced.

Explanation:

The world War I was a period of battle between various countries from 1914 to 1918. It started formally on the 28th of July, 1914 and ended on the 11th of November, 1918.

After World War 1, life was different for many nations experienced great economic meltdown and hardships among the people living in developing nations most especially.

League of Nations (LON) was founded after World War I by the President of the United States of America, Pres. Woodrow Wilson on the 10th of January, 1920. It is the first official worldwide intergovernmental organization and it had its headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland.

The main mission or purpose of the League of Nations was to prevent global conflicts, maintain and enhance peace all over the world, as well as facilitate international cooperation among nations.

However, the League of Nations failed due to the lack of unanimity with respect to decision-making among countries.

In the early 1940s, across the developing nations such as Pakistan, Nigeria, Haiti, Kenya, etc., the united states and the soviet union competed for influence by offering military and economic aid to these nations.
