Answer:

Decision makers should focus on using Renewable resources rather than non renewable resources.

Explanation:

Renewable Sources are easily and quickly restored by nature. Eg Sunlight , Water . Non renewable sources take long time & difficult process to get replenished by nature. Eg Fossil Fuels like Coal, Petrol.

Societies face the problem of scarcity - i.e resources supply short of their demand & they also have alternative uses. So, any choice amidst scarcity implies opportunity cost (sacrifised) by some other member(s) of society. Eg - Non renewable resources used by a social group reduces their availability for other society groups.

Hence : Decision makers regarding mineral resources should focus on using renewable resources (which are abundant & replenish quickly) , rather than non renewable resources (scare & replenish very slowly). This will be beneficial for society as a whole.

While overuse of fossil fuels will cause pollution, world without them is also difficult. A balance is required.

  • Without fossil fuels vehicle transport for conveyance does not happen, food won't be transported, and thus life may come to standstill. It will take sometimes, centuries for the alternative sources to replace fossil fuels.  
  • Overuse will cause pollution to happen and the fossil fuels getting depleted. We already found that if fossil fuels are not there, world will come to standstill. Therefore, cannot deplete them.
  • Balanced usage, usage with caution, and development of alternative sources are the ways to tackle the problem. These are the implications of the statements.

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

A. Observational study

Explanation:

An observational study measures the characteristics of a population by studying individuals in a sample, but does not attempt to manipulate or influence the variables of interest.

A designed experiment applies a treatment to individuals (referred to as experimental units or subjects) and attempts to isolate the effects of the treatment on a response variable.

Hence, we can see that proposed study is observational.

If patricia were to paint her living room alone, it would take 4 hours. her sister naomi could do the job in 5 hours. how long w
Mila [183]

Practicia completes the job in one hour = 1/4

Naoimi completes the job in one hour = 1/5

If Parcticia and Naoimi does it together,let us suppose in x number of hours.

The equation so form is:

(1/4)*x + (1/6)*x = 1 (i.e job finished)

The Least common multiple(LCM) of 4 and 6 = 12

12*(1/4)*x + 12*(1/6)*x = 12*1

Therefore, solving the equation we get,

3x + 2x = 12

5x = 12

x = 12/5

x= 2 2/5 hours or 2.24 hours

Therefore number of hours they took to complete the work is 2 hours and 24 minutes or 2.24 hours.
