<span>Dogwood cost = $15000 Red Maple cost = $30000 First, write an expression expressing what you know. x = percent of inventory that's dogwood trees (1-x) = percent of inventory that's red maple trees So the expression looks like 0.26x + 0.17(1-x) = 0.20 Solve for x. Distribute the 0.17 0.26x + 0.17 - 0.17x = 0.20 Merge the x terms 0.09x + 0.17 = 0.20 Subtract 0.17 from both sides 0.09x = 0.20 - 0.17 = 0.03 Divide by 0.09 on both sides x = 1/3 So one third of the inventory cost is dogwoods and two thirds is red maples. So Dogwood cost = 45000 * 1/3 = $15000 Red Maple cost = 45000 * 2/3 = $30000</span>

What would be the best answer
devlian [24]

Answer:

D. Logical fallacies are unethical because they use logic to emphasize falsehood.

Explanation:

A logical fallacy is reasoning or error of argument which is logically incorrect and renders the validity of an argument invalid.

There are types of logical fallacies such as Ad Hominem, Straw man, etc.

Logical fallacies are easily identified because they usually lack evidence to support their claim.

When something is said to be unethical, it means that it is morally wrong.

Therefore, the false statement from the list is that logical fallacies are unethical because they use logic to emphasize falsehood.

John was driving his car in a careless way, failing to drive as a reasonably prudent person would under the driving conditions.
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

1. <em>If this law of contributory negligence applies to the state, then Ramona will receive no compensation for the damages she sustained. </em>

<em> </em>2<em>. If this law of comparative negligence applies to this state, then Ramona will get 100% - 20% = 80% of the damages incurred in the accident, from John which will be $80,000</em>

<em />

Explanation:

In contributory negligence, the defense completely bars plaintiffs from any recovery if they contribute to their own injury through their own negligence.

<em>If this law of contributory negligence applies to the state, then Ramona will receive no compensation for the damages she sustained. </em>

<em> </em>

In comparative negligence, the plaintiff's damages is award by the percentage of fault that the fact-finder assigns to the plaintiff for his or her own injury i.e the plaintiff's damage compensation is reduced by percentage of his/her percentage of fault.

<em>If this law of comparative negligence applies to this state, then Ramona will get 100% - 20% = 80% of the damages incurred in the accident, from John</em>

this is 80% of $100,00 which is equal to <em>$80,000</em>

The Sports Club plans to pay an annual dividend of $1.20 per share next year, $1.12 per share a year for the following two years
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

$9.63

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Year              Annual dividend paid

   1                                      $1.20

   2                                      $1.12

   3                                      $1.12

   4                                      $14.20

Now,

Year       Annual dividend paid        Present value factor     Present value

   1                              $1.20                          0.84246               1.011

   2                             $1.12                          0.84246               0.7949

   3                             $1.12                          0.59793             0.6696

   4                             $14.20                       0.50373             7.1529

===============================================================

Worth of stock = 1.011 + 0.7949 + 0.6696 + 7.1529

= $9.6284 ≈ $9.63

Note:

Present value factor = [ 1 ÷ (1 + 0.187)ⁿ]

here,

n is the year

Transcultural global ethics always maintains the value of human rights. Have Google’s operations been consistent with the value
sp2606 [1]
Many activists and watchdogs argue that Google has not always done enough to promote or even protect human rights around the world. This is usually the result of efforts by Google to market its search engine in nations like China, where the state has an interest in maintaining censorship of search results. The project, known as Dragonfly, was recently abandoned by Google.

In recent years, Google was among the companies that faced criticism for marketing an app that allowed men in Saudi Arabia to track the locations of their wives by using their cell phones. This was seen as an affront to women's rights, and the company withdrew the product after criticism from the media and shareholders. Google's interest in artificial intelligence has also led to criticism about its commitment to ethical practices and to human rights.

At the same time, there is no doubt that Google has expanded people's access to information and to many other online services around the world. It has made several global public statements against censorship. Its most vocal critics, indeed, have pointed to its previous stands for free access to information in pointing out the hypocrisy of Dragonfly and other ventures.
