Answer and explanation:

I disagree. It is a fact that developing countries cannot keep the pace of developed countries when it comes to producing technological inventions because of the differences in resources -capital and knowledge. However, everyday technology is faster at the reach of people's hands regardless of where they are located in the world. It is indeed bridging the technology access developing countries have with the developing countries. It now depends on developing countries in finding out how they use that technology to improve the masses' lifestyles.

Drupady [299]

Answer:

6.12%

Explanation:

Calculation for How does our decision depend on the interest rate at which we can invest our funds

Present value = 6000-3060

Present value = 2940

Future value = Present value+Present Value*Numver of month* Rate of interest/ 100

3000 = 2940+2940*4/12*R/100

60 = 2940*4/12*R/100

60*12/4 = 2940*R/100

180 = 2940*R/100

180/2940 = R/100

0.061224 = R/100

Rate = 6.1224

Therefore How does our decision depend on the interest rate at which we can invest our funds is 6.1224

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

The performance problem to minor burns will be mainly psychological.

Explanation:

The staff involved will most likely exhibit a reduction in speed at which he or she executed the task which led to the burn.

If the personnel is in a chain of production where their own activity feeds others, it may translate to the increase in the time taken to achieve results.

One solution to this is to critically examine the production process and eliminate the cause of the accident if any.

If the cause of the incident was as a result of carelessness on the part of the staff, then he or she might have to be rescheduled to another department or unit where their current mindset will not stall the overall performance of the team/production line.

Cheers!
