Fracking is the process by which oil is extracted from underground using a high-pressure water mixture. This procedure probably causes earthquakes as a result of the wastewater that is injected back underground. As a result, several cities and states have banned fracking operations, while others have proposed regulations on how fracking should be conducted. How do new regulations affect the costs of doing business

New regulations can increase the cost of doing business because the business owner may have to modify the production of the goods and services.

Explanation:

The cost of doing this business will be seen to increase because as it is been done by everyone in the past years; its mode of operation has been directly sanctioned and as a result, new modalities are been adopted. This is seen in cases where the wastewater that are been produced can be channeled to different waste systems and also these high pressure water system management patterns will be seen to be adjusted too. Having said this, these new modalities can increase the cost of doing business because the business owner may have to modify the production of the goods and services.

you can lose ranking 2 ways.

1) you don't have enough points due to you expending them by asking questions/your answers are deleted.

2) your brainliest's expired. this means that brainliests, once they exceed the 30 day limit, expires. this is to ensure that you continue to contribute into the community at a constant rank if you want to continue to have/exceed the rank you have right now.

if you go to profile, and click "show more information" located on the bottom left of the box with your information (on top of the questions answered, questions asked, and friends), you will be given the following information (example):

member since : 02/13/2017, 18: 11

questions answered: 9741

questions asked: 162

no. of brainliest answers: 1575

brainliest answers in last 30 days: 10

warnings: 0 view

questions/answers reported: 2637

questions/answers incorrectly reported: 64

look at the "brainliest answers in the last 30 days". this is the one that will affect your rank other than your points. again, once your brainliest expires (was earned 31+ days ago), it will not be counted.
