Answer:

15/29

Explanation:

Olive oil = 5/8

Vinegar = 1/4

Let us find a common multiple that would help us easily make computation

We know that 5/8 = 15/24

and that 1/4 = 6/24

That means the mixture requires olive oil to be 15 parts out of 24

and requires vinegar to be 6 parts out of 24.

This means that the composition of salt, pepper, and sugar would be:

1 - (15/24 + 6/24)

= 1 - (21/24) = 3/24

This means that each is approximately 1 part of the mixture.

Hence if Vinegar is doubled: we have 12 parts of 24, instead of 6 parts of 24

And sugar is omitted, that means Sugar = 0 part of 24 instead of 1 part of 24

Total parts become = 15 + 12 + 1 + 1+ 0 = 29

From this 29 parts, 15 parts are olive, hence the olive proportion becomes:

15 parts of 29 = 15/29

podryga [215]

<u>Frederick Herzberg's</u> research focused on how some people are motivated by internal aspirations and life goals, whereas others are primarily motivated by the job conditions.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Frederick Irving Herzberg was a famous psychologist who lived in America. He was known for his motivator-hygiene theory. He states that people are generally influenced by two sets of factors.

According to Frederick, hygiene factors don’t contribute to motivation, but absence of hygiene may cause lowering the motivation level.

Frederick says that there are many factors in the workplace which induces motivation for the employee. Certain factors contribute job satisfaction, while other set of factors may cause dissatisfaction.

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

The norm for standing distance between two friends during a conversation is about 3-6 feet in the United States, whereas it is only about 1-2 feet in Middle Eastern countries. This difference best reflects is a type of psychology:

  • Sociocultural.

Explanation:

  • Sociocultural in psychology refer to the impact of surroundings and society on the culture of that society.
  • In America, the population of people per area is less than that in Middle Eastern countries. There is more flux of people in an area in those countries so this condition has led to the norm that standing distance between two friends during a conversation is about 1-2 feet in Middle Eastern countries.  
  • Generally, you can see that the public places like shopping markets are crowded with people. The public transport is jam packed with people. So, they don't feel when someone is talking to them at a distance of 1-2 feet as people of the United States do.
