Answer:

functional fixedness

Explanation:

Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that Aaron probably had difficulty solving this problem due to functional fixedness.  This term refers to a cognitive bias which limits an individual to using an object only in the way it was traditionally intended and not in any other way. Such as a pair of scissors is used for cutting and not unscrewing a screw, as Aaron needed to do.

ra1l [238]

Answer:

Epistemic shopping

Explanation:

Epistemic shopping is the type of shopping activity when the customer visits various places, and tries several presentations of the same product, in order to gain information or knowledge about the product, in order to pruchase only the best alternative later on.

Jim is engaging in epistemic shopping because he is very active in visiting cheese stores, trying out new cheeses, but he hardly ever purchases anything. This is because the main motivation behind his shopping activity is to gain knowledge, not to engage in compulsive shopping.

When is it ok to leave a child unattended in a car? A. Only if they are younger than six-years-old B. Only if they are older tha
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

B. Only if they are older than six-years-old

Explanation:

<u>This question would need to be more specific, in regards of which State are we talking about.</u>

<u>I'll try to answer this question in the more general way considering all the United States state's laws considering this matter in a general way. </u>

In the United States every state has different laws regarding leaving children unattended in the car. Some states state that the children must be older than 6 year old and some of them say that they must be older than 9 year old. Some states don't even have laws regarding this matter.

However, <u>NONE</u> of the states say that it is legal or okay to leave children younger than 6-years-old, they also don't say it's okay as long as the windows are rolled down or the keys are not in the car.

Therefore, the correct answer <u>would be b. since it's the only one that is mentioned in some state's laws such as Florida, Illinois or Louisiana. </u>
