PLEASE HELP PLEASE How did this interpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment allow the states to maintain segregation laws? Passage:

…The object of the [Fourteenth] Amendment was to enforce the absolute equality of the two races before the law, but...it could not have been intended to abolish distinctions based upon color, or to enforce social, as distinguished from political, equality... Laws permitting, and even requiring, their separation... do not necessarily imply the inferiority of either race to the other, and have been generally, if not universally, recognized as within the competency of the state legislatures in the exercise of their police power. The most common instance of this is connected with the establishment of separate schools for white and colored children, which have been held to be a valid exercise of the legislative power even by courts of states where the political rights of the colored race have been longest and most earnestly enforced.

this is an outline for the decisions that frankie is going to make

opportunity cost

willingness to buy

price or quality

of course, there could be many economic strategies that should be considered important while making decision. opportunity cost is the foremost significant factor while considering any economic option. when you buy something, you should know how much you are forgoing for this product. indeed, you could buy something different with this measure if you changed your mind. willingness to buy shows how much surplus you are earning while making a decision. it is important because it shows you buy what you want or you buy because you have only limited amount of money. the price or quality can be considered as a general economic option that we are applying while buying something. when you buy something, price or quality could be one of the options. indeed, they define the characteristics of the product.
