Answer:

There will be 16 people who are both writer and editor

Explanation:

We have given there are total of 100 people

So total = 100

There are 45 writers so,Writers = 45;

It is given that there are more than 38 editors so ,Editors > 38

Both = x;

Neither = 2x

We know that

Total = Writers + Editors - Both + Neither  

100 = 45 + Editors - x + 2x

x = 55 - Editors

We want to maximize x, thus we should minimize Editors minimum possible value of Editors is 39, thus:

x = Both = 55 - 39 = 16.

gogolik [260]

Proponents of an <u>integrative mind design</u> would argue that your awareness of the context affected your interpretation of the ambiguous word.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Integrative thinking is the ability of thinking and producing a creative solution out of two opposing ideas. This kind of scenario occurs when the person is under tension.

The created solution should be common to both the situation and superior to both.

The new idea is created to face the situation in tension. This is known as integrative thinking.

In the above scenario, the sister yelled at her sister on seeing the barking dogs surrounding her. It used the term be_ le instead of beagle. This is was due to tension.

maksim [4K]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can answer the following.

One of the government's accomplishments under the Articles of Confederation was an arrangement for handling currency to be created.

The problem with the Articles of Confederation (the first form of the Constitution in the United States) was that it left a weak central government that couldn't do much. Indeed, Congress was not able to raise an army or collect money. If Congress needed money, it had to ask from the states, that remained sovereign and could collect money through taxation.

That is why delegates met at the Constitutional Convention in the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1787, to create a new Constitution.
