Alias, a Native American student, was being reprimanded by his third grade teacher for talking during class. The teacher became

agitated when Alias constantly looked at the floor while she was talking to him. In the conversation, she repeatedly told Alias, "Look at me when I am speaking to you." Although he attempted to look at the teacher, he found it difficult and his gaze always returned to the floor. What explanation can be offered for this situation from a cross-cultural perspective?

Answer: Alias is most likely raised under a cultural norm that doesn't allow children to look at an adult when they are speaking and the teacher may be coming from a culture which takes it as disrespect or as a sign of not hearing what someone is saying unless you make eye contact and that create a misunderstanding between the two of them.

Explanation:

In some cultures when a child looks at an adult in the eyes when they are speaking it's a sign of disrespect , a child is expected to show respect and remorse for what they have done by not looking at an elder in the eyes.

Other cultures eye contact is the way of showing you are listening to what is being said to you and you understand it.

Answer: Cannot have a correct answer if you don´t have the exact costs/revenues.

Explanation: Cinematographic business has always been one of the less clear investment in terms of revenues.

You can have a defaukt budget, a well marked limit with no possibilities of increasing it. Spending less depends on the agreements with production and direction.

But, revenues are different. You can make a calculation, but in the end only time and viewers will decide if the movie was affordable.

Elodia [21]

Answer: your question is not complete.

I will assume this is the complete question.

You are at Memorial Stadium for a football game. Unfortunately, there are many empty seats because your team isnt very good and neither is its opponent. As you watch the game you are eating a hot dog. Which of the following is a correct statement?

A. Both the hot dog and the game are private goods.

B. Both are public goods.

C. The hot dog is a private good and the game is a common pool resource.

D. The hot dog is a private good and the game is a toll good.

THE ANSWER IS D.

THE HOT DOG IS A PRIVATE GOODS AND THE GAME IS A TOLL GOODS.

Explanation:

A private goods is when the feasibility of exclusion is easy and consumption is subtractive. That is when you own a goods, which only you have access to the benefit of the goods. THIS MAKES THE HOT DOG A PRIVATE GOODS BECAUSE ONLY HIM HAS ACCESS TO THE BENEFIT OF SATISFACTION BEEN DERIVED FROM THE HOT DOG HE WAS EATING.

A toll goods is when the feasibility of exclusion is easy, but consumption of benefit is joint. This is a type of goods or service that everyone can enjoy and the benefit is not meant for only one person, but for many. THIS MAKES THE GAME A TOLL GOODS BECAUSE HE IS NOT THE ONLY ONE WATCHING THE GAME, MANY OTHERS ARE ALSO WATCHING THE SAME GAME WITH HIM, AS THE GAME IS OPEN FOR EVERYONE TO WATCH.

Natalka [10]

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>variable-interval                              </em>

<em>Explanation:</em>

<em>In psychology,</em><em> a variable-interval schedule is described as a schedule of reinforcement which is considered as one of the parts in the operant conditioning and was discovered by </em><em>B. F. Skinner. </em><em>It is also denoted as VI, and is defined as a process whereby "reinforcement" is being given to a specific response only after a well-defined amount of time has been passed i.e, unpredictable time and therefore the amount of time is supposed to be on a variable or changing schedule.</em>

<em>As per the question, studying for professor Wallace's surprise quizzes will be reinforced on a variable-interval schedule.</em>

Which helps enable an oligopoly to form within a market?
katrin [286]

Oligopoly is a market structure of few sellers, where few firms dominate the whole market. Sellers are the main supplier and gain all the output of market. Now let us see what are the elements which enable the oligopoly.

Large investment capital:

A new entry is a ban in oligopoly structure because of very heavy investment. A new entry may have fear of cost maintenance because of established firms because it is true that in midst of product it is difficult to make a new product.

Absolute cost advantage:

Small firms always have an absolute cost advantage on raw material, training, techniques, natural resources, economic resources, where new entrants cannot survive and small firms earn a profit even in low price.

Small firms have strong marketing chain and network. As new entry comes, they compete them out through different strategies.

Product differentiation:

Small firms get an advantage of product differentiation. Buyers develop the loyalty to the brand so for new entry it is very difficult to compete for a brand and gain customer loyalty until unless they make any superior thing than that brand.

Mergers:

Modern businesses now have learned to merge to eliminate competition.

Doing this, the number of firms decline, profit increases and oligopolies are established.

Informal collusion:

Mergers are formed but mergers have some constitutional complexities. So to avoid the law complications most firms have informal agreements between them to earn the profit and get rid of law bindings.
