In reinforcement theory terms, you are using to modify Greg’s behavior is Extinction

The reinforcement theory has to do with influencing someone’s behavior. The theory states that an individual’s behavior can be changed. The theory proposed that such behavior can be changed by using reinforcement, punishment, and extinction.

<h2>Further Explanation</h2>

The reinforcement theory also states that you can change a person’s behavior by using rewards or punishments. Rewards can be used to improve the kind of behavior we want and punishments can also be used to change someone’s behavior.

The three fundamental concepts that describe the reinforcement theory include

  • Reinforcement
  • Punishment
  • Extinction

Reinforcement can be categorized into two, which include

  1. Positive reinforcement
  2. Negative reinforcement

Positive reinforcement is when you reward or give something to a person when they carried out the required action. When you reward the desired actions, it means you are reinforcing stimulus.

Negative reinforcement is when you decide to withhold negative consequences to encourage a desired action or behavior.

Punishments are when you impose a negative consequence to decrease a certain behavior. Punishments are meant to discourage undesired behavior.

Extinction, on the other hand, implies to change a person’s behavior.

Therefore, in reinforcement theory terms, you are using to modify Greg’s behavior is Extinction

Answer: B. Economies of Scale.

Explanation:

ECONOMIES OF SCALE is a situation where costs are reduced because production rises. This is usually the case with larger firms because they are able to produce more goods which translates to the fall of their cost per good.

For example, a firm has fixed costs of $3000 regardless of if they produce 10 products or 100. If they produce only 10 then it's $300 per product in cost as opposed to producing 100 which is $30 per product in cost. The problem is that only larger firms could be able to produce above 10 goods.

The Houston based funeral house is considered a GIANT so they are probably benefitting from ECONOMIES OF SCALE.

What similarities does the Gupta empire and Chola empire have?
Vlad [161]

Answer:

To pay for their armies and other government projects, both empires collected a 25% tax on all agricultural earnings throughout their lands. Class structure was also similar in both empires.

Explanation:

Both empires were governed by a strong central bureaucracy that answered to the emperor. The large territories were further divided into provinces and districts with regional leaders and councils. Local leaders were given a lot of authority in order to streamline decision-making, but the emperors were still the ultimate authority. To pay for their armies and other government projects, both empires collected a 25% tax on all agricultural earnings throughout their lands.
