The correct answer is A. Everyone, and weights everyone’s happiness equally.

Explanation:

John Stuart Mill was a prominent philosopher in economics and also in "utilitarianism". According to Mill, utilitarianism focuses on promoting actions that support the happiness of individuals, while avoiding those that restrict happiness. Additionally, Mill proposes the greatest-happiness principle that implies individuals should act to promote happiness in all "sentient beings", this means actions should consider the happiness of everyone. Also, each action should produce the greatest happiness, which means it should make the most individuals happy. In this context, the happiness of each individual should is equally important. Therefore, utilitarianism takes into account the happiness of everyone, and weights everyone's happiness.

18 points!!! the united states is sovereign but the city or town you live in is not. Do you think that your community should be
dem82 [27]
I do not think that my community should be sovereign. A sovereign state is represented by one centralized government. If every state was represented by one centralized government I believe it could cause chaos. The government could support states that they wanted to and ignore states that they thought less of. Every citizens needs couldn’t possibly be met because it is impossible for one president or one small group of people to govern millions. It would simply be overwhelming and chaotic, at least in my opinion.

Find the median of the following data:<br> 10,16, 15, 14, 8, 21, 10, 5, 19, 18,4,5, 16, 12, 10,9
Anarel [89]

Answer:

11

Explanation:

First step: Order from least to greatest.

4,5,5,8,9,10,10,10,12,14,15,16,16,18,19,21

Second: If the we had an odd amount of data, the median would just be the middle number.  Since we have even amount of data, the median will be average of the 2 middles.

You have 16 data members here. The middle is going to be at the 16/2 th term and the [(16/2)+1 th] term. So in other words we need to average the 8th and 9th term here to find the median. So let's count to the 8th and then then the 9th to figure out what numbers these actually are.

8th term=10 and 9th term= 12 so the average of these are (10+12)/2=22/2=11.

The median is 11.
