Answer:
Vroom’s theory of expectancy.
Explanation:
Vroom's theory of motivation corresponds to the employee's expectations regarding his work.
Through this theory, it is possible for the manager to better understand why the employees acted in a way at work, such as lack of motivation and low productivity.
He then developed through the theory of expectation that motivation at work depends on the perception that employees have of their effort at work, as they believe that their efforts at work will lead to positive results for the organization and consequently will lead to significant rewards for their performance .
Through this theory, then, the manager could assist in understanding and assessing the lack of motivation of employees, to have a greater dimension of their expectations and to be able to develop tactics for including greater autonomy at work, including challenges, etc., which could lead to an increase satisfaction with work, adjust the rewards system and consequently achieve the system of personal goals for each employee.

Answer:
the U.S. lawmakers immigration numbers were not increasing rapidly then

Before 1875, most of the lands in united states were not occupied. Which is why they considered immigration as a good things since they need more people to come into the country and take care of the resources.

Answer:
Hilbert´s Hotel (by David Hilbert)
Explanation:
Imagine you are a foreign tourist that has just arrived to a town. In that town theres the<u> Hilbert´s Hotel</u>, internationally recognized for being the only hotel with <em>infinite rooms</em>. When you arrive to the lobby, you ask the manager to give you a room:
- Manager: "Im terribly sorry, but an infinite group of people has just arrived and all the rooms are full"
- You: "How is that possible? I thought you had infinite rooms
- Manager: "Indeed, but they are now full"
- You: "But that´s impossible... if there are infinite rooms they can´t all be full. I know there´s a way for me to get a room"
What would you do? You really need that room to spend the night...
NOTES: All the rooms are listed from one to infinity and only 1 person is able to stay per room.
SOLUTION
- You: "Look friend, all you have to do is tell the infinite group to move up one room, so the person staying the room 1 will move to the 2, the 2 to 3, the 3 to 4 and so on to infinity and i can take the room number 1. That way all the tourists, including me, would have a room."
EXTENSION OF THE PROBLEM
What would you do if two infinite groups of tourist´s arrives? How would you place them in the Hilbert hotel?
(hint: pair numbers are also infinite)
Significance of the problem
This particular problem is very interesting to me because it forces me to think out of the box something not only amusing but necessary to sort out day to day events.
