Answer:

a.The efficiency of the WiFi system will depend upon the usage and the speed of internet provided by the ISP (Internet Service Provider). Keeping in mind that the town have 1,000 households the network to choose will need to be fast and reliable also each household should be allowed to download a certain amount of DATA via internet so that the each household can get benefit from the WiFi System.

b. If each household is willing to pay $50 per year the contribution received will be $50×1,000 = $50,000. So the cost of WiFi system will be recovered.

c. If the town keeps tracks of the contributions and ask the household to contribute at least $20 per year so yes the total cost of WiFi system will be recovered. $20× 1,000= $20,000

What is the difference between a closed shop and a lockout
pentagon [3]

Answer:

A closed shop refers to business which employs union workers alone, whereas in case of a lockout, such a business does not permit employment of union workers.

Lockout serves as a mean to curb labor union demands. In lockouts, the owners of such businesses lock out or block the entry/employment of union workers.

In case of a closed shop, all the employees represent members of labor union. The two concepts represent exactly opposite scenarios.
