A construction project has been tasked with building a four-lane road from a remote mountain fortress to a major expressway lyin

g at the base of the mountain. The slope leading to the mountain fortress is so precipitous that the only conceivable way to carry out the project is by building the road downhill, since construction equipment is able to move down, but not up, the steep terrain. The foreman has devised the following solution: dismantle each construction vehicle and tie a part upon the back of a donkey, an animal capable of making the steep ascent. The foreman has at his disposal more than 100 donkeys, each of which is capable of making multiple trips up the mountain.
In order for the foreman’s plan to be successful, which of the following pieces of information is most important?
A) Whether the strongest donkey is able to transport the heaviest piece of equipment
B) Whether the weakest donkey is able to transport the lightest piece of equipment
C) Whether any donkey is capable of transporting multiple parts
D) Whether the second strongest donkey is able to transport the heaviest piece of equipment
E) Whether the weakest donkey is able to transport the heaviest piece of equipment

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>A) Whether the strongest donkey can transport the most substantial piece of equipment  is the most important.</em>

<u />

<u>Explanation:</u>

The decision-making is sorting out, arranging and controlling elements of an administrator. Essential leadership is critical to accomplish the hierarchical objectives/goals inside the given time and spending plan. Necessary guidance is an unavoidable capacity of administrators planned for achieving authoritative objectives.

It is not the demonstration of settling on choices that is so alarming, and it is the vulnerability of the outcomes and repercussions of those choices that we dread the most. Similarly, as nobody is genuinely scared of statures, they terrified of falling.  Here, in this issue, we opt out to look forward how much a strongest donkey can transport. It is useless to examine the weakest one.

​Joe's starting salary as a mechanical engineer is around ​$100 comma 000. Joe is planning to place a total of 13​% of his salar
Maru [420]

Answer:

$ 2,209,797.96

Explanation:

Given:

Salary = $100,000

Salary investment rate = 13%

Salary increase rate(g) = 5%

number of year = 25

Annual rate of return(i) = 11%

Calculation:

Salary invested = $100,000*13% = $13,000

calculation of present worth

P=A[\frac{1-(1+g)^n(1+i)^{-n}}{i-g}] \\P=13000[\frac{1-(1+0.05)^{25}(1+0.11)^{-25}}{0.11-0.05}] \\P=13000[\frac{1-(1.05)^{25}(1.11)^{-25}}{0.06}] \\P=13000[\frac{1-(3.386354)(0.073608086)}{0.06}]\\\\P=13000[\frac{1-0.249263}{0.06}]\\\\ P=13000[12.5122827]\\\\\\P= 162,659.675

Future worth = P(1+i)^n\\                       = 162,659.675(1+0.11)^{25}\\                       = 2,209,797.96
