<span>hen U.S. citizens go to the polls to "elect" a president, they are in fact voting for a particular slate of electors. In every state but Maine and Nebraska, the candidate who wins the most votes (that is, a plurality) in the state receives all of the state’s electoral votes. The number of electors in each state is the sum of its U.S. senators and its U.S. representatives. (The District of Columbia has three electoral votes, which is the number of senators and representatives it would have if it were permitted representation in Congress.) The electors meet in their respective states 41 days after the popular election. There, they cast a ballot for president and a second for vice president. A candidate must receive a majority of electoral votes to be elected president.</span>

K has a life insurance policy that allows him to skip premium payments but still keeps the policy in force. What type of policy
Anni [7]

Answer:

Correct answer is C: K has a Universal Life insurance policy.

Explanation:

<em>Term Life</em> insurance lasts for a prefixed amount of years, based on a system of monthly payments. <em>Whole Life</em> insurance, on the other hand, is a permanent life insurance policy because it has no prefixed expiration date. Both kind of insurances last as long as you maintain the payments, so we can cross A and B out of the options (and also D), leaving us with Universal Life. This kind of insurance policy has a twist and provides more flexibility: the premiums and death benefits can be changed without having to sign an entirely new policy. Furthermore, you can use the cash value to pay the premiums (this is perfect for people who do not want to commit to a specific monthly amount). So, even though you have a minimum premium to keep the policy,  they can be payed with the cash value.

BARSIC [14]

Answer: Discriminant validity

Explanation:

Discriminant Validity

Discriminant validity means a researcher needs to display or show that those variables that are not correlated are indeed not correlated in real life or practically .

For example the test above is measuring intelligence rather than reading ability so the researcher can use discriminant validity to actual show that reading ability is not related to intelligence and that the test is solely measuring intelligence.

He should show the evidence that there is really a low correlation between these two measures.
