In one state, west county and east county share a border. the state capital is in east county. many residents of west county (almost half of all adults in the county) commute to east county for work. east county has high levels of air pollution, and residents there must get their car exhaust systems tested every two years. although west county has less air pollution than east, the pollution levels in west are rising. the state department of environmental regulation orders that residents of west county must now get their car exhaust systems tested every two years as well. what moral standard best explains this decision by the department of environmental regulation?

Moral utility or principle of utility

Explanation:

John Stuart Mill's principle of utility ascertains that the rules of action are measured by their effect on the total happiness.

Due to pollution levels in West County are rising, the Department of Environmental Regulation order to get their car exhaust systems tested every two years looks up for an effect on the total happiness of the region, not only on the happiness in one county or another.

the arab empire adopted the muslim religion as their main belief. arabs would influence the people from the territories they invaded towards islam (the muslim belief).

nevertheless, throughout the history of the arab empire, rulers brought intellectual individuals from other religions to their centers of learning. these other foreigners included jews, christians, greeks, persians, and indians.   these resulted in the adoption of important knowledge developed by these cultures by the arabic empire. for example, the works of aristotle were translated from greek to arab and indian scientists brought the numerical concept of "zero" to the arabs.

nowadays, 93% of the arab population is muslim, which at the same time is subdivided in sects including the sunni, zaini, alawi, shia. the remaining 7% is composed mainly of christians.
