Your car averages 28 miles per gallon (MPG). Your trip to work averages 14 miles. Gas costs 2.89 per gallon. What do you spend o
gogolik [260]

Answer:

57.8$

Explanation:

Here we know that:

- One trip to work averages 14 miles

- Therefore, one return trip home-work averages 14*2=28 miles

- You work 20 days per month

So, the average number of miles per month is:

m=28\cdot 20 =560 mi

Then, we also know that the car averages 28 miles per gallon; this means that the number of gallons consumed on average in 1 month is equal to the average number of miles (560) divided by 28:

g=\frac{560 mi}{28 mi/gal}=20 gal

So, 20 gallons per month.

Finally, we know that the cost of the gas is 2.89$/gallon. Therefore, the average total cost per month is equal to the average number of gallons per month (20) times the cost per gallon:

cost = (20 gal)\cdot (\$2.89/gal)=\$57.8

According to Ari Wallach, what is short-termism, and why is it a problem?
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

<em><u>short-termism </u></em>

Is the acting upon short term vision of the needs and problems that must be addressed. It is a problem because the vision that is important is the Long path vision.

<em><u>What is “longpath” and why did Wallach develop the concept?  </u></em>

Is a concept that combines long term vision and goal oriented. Wallach develop that concept as he did not find a term that frame what is intended in the long run that was goal oriented.

<em><u>Briefly discuss each of the three ways of thinking that Wallach describes.  </u></em>

Transgenerational thinking: Thinking the impact of your actions in the future generations to come.  

Futures thinking: The future is not related only with better technology but with how will human relationships, moral, art and feelings like compassion will evolve.

Telos thinking: This is an invitation to think having in mind what is the "ultimate aim" of our actions as little of they might be. It is important to raise the question: how this action that I am doing now will impact or change the future in 20,50 or 100 years to come.

<em><u>How does Wallach relate the future to a part of speech? </u></em>

Wallach make a link between Thomas Khun quote: “People don’t shift unless they have a vision of what it is they’re shifting to.” an Martin Luther King Speech of "I Have a Dream" he says that that speech is successful as it shows what is the vision of what a dream must looks like

On June 1, Aaron Company purchased equipment at a cost of $120,000 that has a depreciable cost of $90,000 and an estimated usefu
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

It is $30,000(C)

Explanation:

Depreciable cost = $90,000

Using straight-line method,

Annual depreciation = $90,000/3

                                  = $30,000.

Hence, depreciation expense at the final year of service is $30,000

We cannot make use of entire cost of equipment of $120,000 because it seemed the company wanted to sell its scrap value for  $30,000. Hence, this has been used to reduced it cost to $90,000 which is a depreciable cost .
