Answer:

<u>autocratic</u> environment.

Explanation:

It can be said that Peter works in an autocratic environment, characterized by the authoritarianism of the leaders and the decision-making process totally focused only on the high hierarchy.

This work environment has greater control over employees and their activities because there is an inflexible chain of command, and subordinates must obey the decisions of their superiors even if it is not convenient.

There are some unfavorable points of the autocratic environment, such as the demotivation of employees due to lack of freedom and autonomy at work.

An oil refinery is located on the north bank of a straight river that is 3km wide. A pipeline is to be constructed from the refi

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

$6,598,076.21

Explanation:

<h2>THE KEY IS TO FIND OUT THE COST FUNCTION, the calculations are very easy!!!</h2><h2></h2><h3>In order to find the cost function, take a look at the drawing attached. </h3>

We can see the river (sort of) that is 3 km wide and the storage tanks on the other side of the river 8 km apart.

<h3 />

Laying pipes under (across) the river costs 1,000,000 the km & laying pipes over land costs 500,000 per km.

<h3 /><h3>So basically the cost function is 1,000,000 multiplied by something plus 500,000 multiplied by another something.</h3><h3 />

The distance across the river can be found by using Pythagoras Theorem. A side is 3 km the other is unknown, so we call it X. And it is equal to:

$\sqrt{3^{2} +x^{2}}=\\\sqrt{9 +x^{2}}$

And we multiply it by 1,000,000; the cost of laying pipe under the river, the we get:

$1000000\sqrt{9+x^{2}$

The distance over the land is (8-x), as we can see in the drawing. So we multiply it by its cost, 500,000. And we get 500,000(8-x).

So the cost function f(x) would be:

$f(x)=1000000\sqrt{9+x^{2}} + 500000(8-x)$

<h2>From here, we just have to differentiate and the derivative found must be equal to zero in order to minimize cost. </h2><h3>The value of x when the derivative is zero is plugged in the original function to get the cost.</h3><h3 /><h2>LET'S DO THIS</h2>

$f(x)=1000000\sqrt{9+x^{2}} + 500000(8-x)\\f(x)=1000000(9+x^{2})^{1/2}+4000000-500000x\\f'(x)=\frac{1}{2} 1000000(9+x^{2})^{-1/2}(2x)-500000\\\\f'(x)=\frac{1000000x}{\sqrt{9+x^2}} - 500000$

$f'(x)=\frac{1000000x}{\sqrt{9+x^2}} - 500000=0\\\frac{1000000x}{\sqrt{9+x^2}} = 500000\\\frac{2x}{\sqrt{9+x^2}} = 1\\2x={\sqrt{9+x^2}}\\4x^2=9+x^2\\3x^2=9\\x^2=3\\x=\sqrt{3} \\$

And we plug square root of 3 in the original cost function ad we get

$f(\sqrt{3} )=1000000\sqrt{9+x^{2}} + 500000(8-x)\\f(\sqrt{3})=1000000\sqrt{9+(\sqrt{3} )^{2}} + 500000(8-(\sqrt{3}))\\f(\sqrt{3})=1000000\sqrt{9+3} + 500000(8-(\sqrt{3}))\\f(\sqrt{3})=1000000\sqrt{12}+500000(6.27)\\f(\sqrt{3})=1000000(3.46)+500000(6.27)\\f(\sqrt{3})=3464101.62+3133974.60\\f(\sqrt{3})=6598076.21\\$

<h2>so the minimal cost is $6,598,076.21</h2><h2 /><h3 />

The offeror may _____ the offer at any time prior to acceptance.

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

The offeror may retract the offer at any time prior to acceptance.

Most likely the offeror was able to get a better deal somewhere else, which allows the offeror to retract the offer. However, if they had already made a deal, the offeror would have broken the deal, which may result in action.

Two stockbrokers, in clear violation of the rules of their employer, sold worthless stocks to unsuspecting customers. There was

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer: Yes they did.

Explanation:

Apparent Authority refers to a scenario where a Agent is assumed to have the power to act on behalf of a Principal regardless of if said authority had not being expressly given whether implicitly or otherwise.

It is worthy of note that this power is only valid if the third party in the transaction assumes from the conduct of the agent, that they have such powers to act.

It is stated in the text that there was no question that the brokers had the actual or implied authority to sell the stock meaning that the Principal had not done enough to show that the agents did not have the Authority to act as they did. For this reason, they can indeed be sued under the Principle of Apparent Authority.
