Answer:

Yes, it is higher if w ≥ 3.

Explanation:

Given,

Number of men = 6,

Number of women = w,

Ways of choosing 2 men = C(6,2),

There can be two cases,

Case 1 :

If w ≥ 3,

Then the number of ways of choosing 1 men and 1 women > Ways of choosing two men,

So, the probability of choosing 1 men and 1 women is greater than that of choosing two men,

For eg : If w = 8,

^8C_1\times ^6C_1>^6C_2

\implies \frac{^8C_1\times ^6C_1}{^{14}C_2}>\frac{^6C_2}{^{14}C_2}

Similarly if w = 3,

\implies \frac{^3C_1\times ^6C_1}{^{14}C_2}>\frac{^6C_2}{^{14}C_2}

Case 2 :

If 0 < w < 3,

Then the number of ways of choosing 1 men and 1 women < Ways of choosing two men,

So, the probability of choosing 1 men and 1 women is less than that of choosing two men

eg :

\frac{^2C_1\times ^6C_2}{^{14}C_2}

Annie and Bart are coworkers. In fact, they share a cubicle wall. Recently, they were involved in a fender-bender in the company
erica [24]

Answer:

Meditation

Explanation:

Annie and Bart are coworkers, they have to see each other every single day at work. They will have to speak to each other in the future regardless of their differences now. Treating one another with hostility is not good for the atmosphere at work and it may have a negative effect on their productivity level as well.

Because they are coworkers, a traditional lawsuit would not be advisable as it would create farther dispute and the company's name and reputation would suffer. Arbitration may work but again, this would take the dispute to another level of importance, thus not being good for the company.

Mediation keeps the dispute at friends' level which is what both Annie and Bart are. The accident was not serious and they should rise above their pride and try to work things out in a peaceful and not accusatory manner. This would also show the other coworkers and the director that they take their jobs seriously and are not prepare to risk them because of some personal matters.
