EDUCATING PEOPLE ABOUT CONSUMER AWARENESS
Dear Mr. Sharma, there is a need for consumers to be aware of what goods they are purchasing and have adequate information so they can make a better decision before making a purchase.
Recently in Mumbai, there have been various instances where a company does not inform potential customers about dangers, side effects and other risks associated with their product and the consumers end up getting what they do not expect. There was this case of a consumer buying a product without properly listing the contents and someone bought the product and had an allergic reaction because he was allergic to nuts, which was one of the major ingredients of the product.
I strongly believe that some stringent laws need to be put in place so that companies can properly educate customers on the content of their product so that they would be more aware of the product.
Yours sincerely,
Raju Sumesh
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Marian co-workers are not correct in their evaluation because of the following reason.
We are talking about a black woman called Marian, who studied at Loyola University. She was hired by a company to be a manager. She was notably smarter than other peers, and regarding her performance in the workplace, she was scored high. But being the only African American woman in the office, she felt alone. But one day she heard where her peers were complaining to the supervisor about her lack of qualifications, and they also mentioned that Marian had an unpleasant personality. Of course, this made Marian angry and she is thinking of quitting.
That is why Marian co-workers are not correct in their evaluation because they are taking things personally. They are envious of her performance and abilities. Her co-workers feel they are being threatened for her skills. And probably, they did not like the fact that she is a black woman, which makes things worse.
Answer:
x = 2.45 yards
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Distance = 50¼ yards = 201/4 = 50.25 yards
Time = 20½ minutes = 20.5
To find the distance covered in a minute;
50.25 yards = 20.5 minutes
x yards = 1 minute
Cross-multiplying, we have;
x * 20.5 = 50.25 * 1
20.5x = 50.25
x = 50.25/20.5
x = 2.45 yards
Method II.
201/4 yards = 41/2 minutes
x yards = 1 minute
Cross-multiplying, we have;
x * 41/2 = 201/4
41x/2 = 201/4
41x * 4 = 201 * 2
164x = 402
x = 402/164 = 201/82 = 2 37/82 yards
