Assume some guy named Spano and a woman named Bagley are stranded on an island. Two tasks must be done: fishing and building she

lters. Assume that Bagley can catch one fish every 10 hours and build one thatched hut every 20 hours. While Spano (who is a bit on the clumsy side) can catch one fish every 15 hours and build a thatched hut every 45 hours. Now assume that during the year both Bagley and Spano each work 1800 hours)

In completion of your question:

Calculate how many fish they can catch and how many huts they can build on their own in one year

Answer:

Bagley can catch 180 fish and build 90 huts.

Spano can catch 120 fish and build 40 huts

Explanation:

If Bagley spends all her time just catching fish in one year she can catch 180 fish (1800 hrs/10 hrs per fish), on the other hand if she spends all her time making huts she can make 90 huts (1800hrs/ 20 hrs per hut) in one year. If Spano spends all his time just catching fish in one year he can catch 120 fish. On the other hand, if he spends all his time making huts in one year he can make 40 huts.

The answers were each gotten by dividing the total number of hrs worked(1800) by each person's rate(such as bagley's 10hr/fish).

Why should we have open immigration?
swat32

Answer:

<em>Because immigration is a natural process and a policy of open immigration avoid many of the problems, costs and negatives effects of illegal immigration.</em>

Explanation:

In a country with open immigration people will not use of fraud to get inside the country or to get work, that way the state doesn’t need to spend so much money in securing borders or investigating frauds and illegal workers.

With open immigration the immigrants are able to participate in the economy and pay taxes as other citizens, these increase the states income and the opportunity for investors, if they are illegal they can’t open a legal business, as happened in past with the Chinese’s for many years in US. Or they won’t need social welfare because they can have an income, that way they don’t have to be under the state’s support or be in custody in prisons.

They can also respond to law and have some responsibilities as other citizens without having all the native’s rights, this creates a more equal situation than when they are illegally immigrating.

How does financial resource affect the development of a country?​
natita [175]

Answer: The accumulation of worldwide reserves and decrease tiers of outside debt permit a few growing nations to shield themselves from the speedy deterioration of capital flows.

What's the part of the brain that makes us human?
olasank [31]
The brain area pinpointed is known to be intimately involved in some of the most advanced planning and decision-making processes that we think of as being especially human.

'We tend to think that being able to plan into the future, be flexible in our approach and learn from others are things that are particularly impressive about humans. We've identified an area of the brain that appears to be uniquely human and is likely to have something to do with these cognitive powers,' says senior researcher Professor Matthew Rushworth of Oxford University's Department of Experimental Psychology.

MRI imaging of 25 adult volunteers was used to identify key components in the ventrolateral frontal cortex area of the human brain, and how these components were connected up with other brain areas. The results were then compared to equivalent MRI data from 25 macaque monkeys.

This ventrolateral frontal cortex area of the brain is involved in many of the highest aspects of cognition and language, and is only present in humans and other primates. Some parts are implicated in psychiatric conditions like ADHD, drug addiction or compulsive behaviour disorders. Language is affected when other parts are damaged after stroke or neurodegenerative disease. A better understanding of the neural connections and networks involved should help the understanding of changes in the brain that go along with these conditions.

The Oxford University researchers report their findings in the science journal Neuron.

Professor Rushworth explains: 'The brain is a mosaic of interlinked areas. We wanted to look at this very important region of the frontal part of the brain and see how many tiles there are and where they are placed.

'We also looked at the connections of each tile -- how they are wired up to the rest of the brain -- as it is these connections that determine the information that can reach that component part and the influence that part can have on other brain regions.'

From the MRI data, the researchers were able to divide the human ventrolateral frontal cortex into 12 areas that were consistent across all the individuals.

To what does the term "going public" refer? a. action taken by a president to communicate directly with the people in order to i
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

The term "going public" refers to:

a. action taken by a president to communicate directly with the people in order to influence public opinion and put pressure on Congress.

Explanation:

When a president goes public, that means he addresses the people directly in order to "sell" his programs. That is, instead of presenting his policy agendas to the Congress, the president presents it to the people first. By doing so, the president is able to get the people on his side, which pressures the Congress. However, such a tactic offers risk. If a president fails after "going public", he may appear ineffective.
