Answer:

For any real experiment there must be at least five things: an independent variable, a dependent variable, control variables, and two groups often one experimental and one control.

Carlos hypothesis is that by fixing leaks their water consumption would be lower. As such his dependent variable is the water consumption and his independent variable (the one he is manipulating) is the amount of leaks in the house.

In order to make this an experiment Carlos needs to first make sure there is an actual decrease in the water consumed, and second he needs to make sure it's due to the fixed leaks. So to do this Carlos should measure their water consumption during a period of time before fixing the leaks and then measure the water use for the same period of time after fixing. The harder part is making sure that no other variables can interfere, these are called control variables. For example if before fixing the leaks Carlos had a huge party and had to wash a lot of dishes any decrease in water could be due to this. Therefore he would need to either make sure water is used for the same things in the same amounts during these two periods or track any increases due to specific events happening in only one of the periods.

Why do you think they decided to destroy the tea
steposvetlana [31]
If you mean the Boston tea party then in my opinion they did it out of extreme anger. They had pretty much nothing else they could do and thought well why not dress up as Indians and go destroy a bunch of tea. The way I'm explaining it probably sucks but to me that's how it seems.

A bar is very busy and one person did not show for their shift. a guest says he is in a hurry and you already have three tables
vaieri [72.5K]
The best way to handle this situation is to tell to the guest who is in a hurry that you won't be able to take his request as the top priority because there are others who are first in line before him. It would be best to advice him that his order would still be taken care of and would do it as fast as it can with trying to explain that he's not the only one in the restaurant to assure him and prevent conflict.

Interested and disinterested rules are the two sorts of rules that are characterized by enthusiasm for good. There are those that emerge out of want to secure private property, and those that endeavor to direct and control the conduct of people, disinterested being the latter one.
