Answer:A

Explanation:he planed and attempted to kill his neighbour even though he didn't succeed on the action but he had planned to do it and took an action towards doing it and also it is stated in the article that even though he wasn't aware of his pistol's limited range but he went ahead and shot at his neighbour hence it can be concluded that the intentions were indeed to kill his neighbour because if the range was wide enough he would have got him and shot him dead on the spot.

Sherry has a meeting with her regional boss scheduled for the same time that her daughter is competing in the high school state
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Work-family conflict.

Explanation:

A work-family conflict can be defined as the process whereby family roles interfere with an individual's performance, commitment and responsibilities at their workplace as well as how this work affect their personal life (family) since they are required to invest time, energy and strong commitment.

Simply stated, work-family conflict are mutually incompatible because each role invariably affects the other according to Kahn et al. (1964).

Using the Greenhaus and Beutell (1985) framework, work-family conflict can be classified in to three (3) main categories, these are;

1. Behavior-based conflict: this conflict occurs when certain behaviors exhibited by an individual isn't compatible with assigned roles.

2. Strain-based conflict: it is a type of conflict that arises when stress from the performance of a role is transferred to another role, thus affecting commitment, efficiency and effectiveness.

3. Time-based conflict: it is a type of conflict that arises when a person is not able to perform other roles as a result of devotion of time to another.

In this scenario, Sherry has a meeting with her regional boss scheduled for the same time that her daughter is competing in the high school state swimming finals. These competing demands would cause a work-family conflict. <em>This is an example of a time-based ork-family conflict.</em>

what influences might cause a member of the house to vote against the wishes of the people in his or her district
Rufina [12.5K]
There are many influences that could potentially lead a member of the House of Representatives to vote against the wishes of the people in their district. Simply the member could think that their constituents are incorrect in their view or don't possess enough information so therefore, they decide not to vote in accordance with the views of their constituents. Another influence could be that of their political party or the elites in their party that wish for the member to vote a certain a way. Another influence could be special interest groups or lobbies that seek to sway the views of Congress Members. These are all factors that together or separately could make a member of Congress vote in opposition of their constituents views.
