This question is incomplete; here´s the complete question.  

Suppose that we have three voters and four alternatives, and suppose the individual preference lists are as follows:

Voter 1: a b c d

Voter 2: c a b d

Voter 3: b d c a

Suppose that the social choice procedure being used is sequential pairwise voting with a fixed agenda, and that you have agenda-setting power (that is, you get to choose the order). What order should you choose if you want alternative a to be the social choice?

Answer: c vs. d, then winner vs. b, then winner vs. a

Explanation:

In a Sequential Pairwise Voting, the winner may depend on the order in which the elections are carried, so having agenda-setting power and knowing individual preferences allows us to assure a specific outcome for the social choice.

If we begin with the election of Alternative C vs. Alternative D, voters 1 and 2 will provide enough votes for Alternative C to win.

Next, Alternative C being the winner, goes to election vs. Alternative B, and voters 1 and 3 provide enough votes for Alternative B to win.

Finally, Alternative B being the winner goes to election vs. Alternative A, and voters 1 and 2 provide enough votes for Alternative A to win.

When we look at functionally important jobs in our society, the patterns show?
jekas [21]

The most notorious pattern shows that <em>those who are qualified to occupy a role of functional importance</em>, which is the degree to which a job is unique job and requires skill, <em>tend to earn more than those who support lesser functions. </em>

Whether only a few or many other people can perform the same function adequately is directly related to the expected proposed wage, meaning that the lesser the amount of qualified people that can successfully perform a task the greater the wage is expected to be.
