Answer:

The answer options for this question are:

A. The bank is likely to prevail because Ted only provided past consideration.

B. The bank is likely to prevail because Ted had a preexisting duty to catch Victor.

C. The bank is likely to prevail because Ted's promise to catch Victor was illusory.

D. Ted is likely to prevail because his promise to catch Victor resulted in a binding bilateral contract.

E. Ted is likely to prevail because an enforceable unilateral contract exists based on his performance.

The correct answer is:

B. The bank is likely to prevail because Ted had a preexisting duty to catch Victor.

Explanation:

In this case there would be a binding bilateral contract that is composed by promises from both sides. the idea in this contract is that both parties accomplish their promised part.

Nevertheless, in Ted's case it is important to take into consideration that more than a promise, it was Ted's duty to apprehend the criminal, just because of the fact that he works as a police officer, and it was his duty and obligation at that time to work and put all his effort to catch the criminal; which leaves the bank to prevail in this case.

MakcuM [25]

When Susan hypothesized that a person would run faster when running in a group of people than when running alone then this type of reasoning comes under the deduction process.

A deduction can be described as the results or hypothesis that we might generate from the information that is provided. In the process of deduction, the pattern in the information that is available is carefully studied and observed. Based on this pattern of information, one can deduce a result or form a hypothesis.

In the case above, when Susan hypothesizes based on the information that was already provided that social facilitation, or the presence of others, influences performance, then such a hypothesis is based on deduction reasoning based on prior information.

Although a part of your question is missing, you might be referring to this question:

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:Gordon Allport's contact hypothesis

Explanation:

According to contact hypothesis prejudice and conflict between people of different race or different groups can be reduced if people of those groups can interact more with each other.

Gordon Allport, says this depends on four things that need to be met first in order for prejudice to be reduced this way: equal status, cooperation,common goals and institutional support.

Equal status means everyone get the same treatment because when other groups are treated as superior this increases prejudice

Common goals - when people are working towards one thing they are likely to work cooperatively and this changes how they look at each other

How did the Granite<br> Park Chalet hotel encourage<br> aggressive behavior in bears
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

Actually in a National Park like Glacier its the "bears habitat" first, obviously human safety is a must but if you've even seen the beauty of Glacier firsthand you would know that. A protected area like the park is helping preserve areas of land where the wild animals can remain for hopefully generations, although there is some debate about that. I would be very upset if the government took National Parks and sold them off for "human expansion". Visit Montana, the Dakotas, Wyoming, heck even Iowa and see the vast open spaces, overrowing is not an issue. Just my two cents from Ohio
