The correct answer is A) Signal Detection.

Catherine is at a crowded baseball game when she loses track of her son, Nick. Despite the loud cheering and noise of the crowd, she can pinpoint his location when he calls for her because she can distinguish the sound of his voice from all the other voices. This illustrates the Signal Detection theory.

This is an example of the Signal Detection theory because Catherine, as the mother she is, can clearly detect the voice of her son, differentiating it from the voices from the crowd. This theory is also used by psychologists that try to understand the way people make decisions under difficult conditions.

Identify at least two arguments for and two agruments against the new deal
fomenos

Answer:

The new deal were a number of different reforms that were conducted under President Roosevelt between 1933-1939.  The programs just ended before World War II began and were designed to help recover from the great Depression of the late 1920s.

Like any government reforms, there were both supporters and a vocal opposition.

Explanation:

<em>Argument 1 in favour:</em> The Great Depression had the greatest impact on the working class and the poor. Radical programs were needed to ensure the economy can grow, more jobs can be created and basic social needs met.

<em>Argument 2 in favour: </em>It is the responsibility of the government to ensure the poorest in the society do not suffer. Thanks to the reforms, the American economy rebounded and when the second war started,America was probably the most industrialised country in the world.

<em>Argument 1 against:</em> The American economy is built on the foundations of capitalism, free market and minimum government intervention. The reforms might seem good for now, but they are changing the way American government works and in subsequent years, companies will always look to the government for a bailout.

<em>Argument 2 against: </em>We cannot trust the government to make rational decisions. Such reforms are similar to the ones seen in Soviet Union and can lead to mismanagement of epic proportions.

The Carson family will purchase three used cars. There are two models of cars available, Model A and Model B, each of which is a
GalinKa [24]

32 different combinations of three cars can the Carsons select if all the cars are to be different colors.

B. 32

<u>Explanation:</u>

As it is given there are four available colours of the car. That means we have 4 cars. 2 \times 4 =8. Now choose the first car. The no.of way of choosing the first car is equalled to 8 and imagine the first car Colour is black. Now we have a black car so we have to choose from 6 options apart from black.

Now no.of way of choosing the 2 car = 6 and imagine it is blue. Now we have to choose two colour car, so now we have 4 options to choose from. The no.of choosing the car = 4. Now let's calculate the total arrangement - 8 \times 6 \times 4=192. It is the total calculation for three cars.

But we have to know the selection so three cars can also be arranged in 6 ways. So the number of different combinations of three cars can be calculated as 192÷6= 32. This is how the selection is being done.

Rulers were involved in religious ceremonies, led battles, had beautiful clothing/jewelry, and Kings wore huge feather headdresses and capes of cotton, jaguar skins, and feathers. Priests led religious ceremonies and were the most educated. Warriors fought battles with animal headdresses, jade jewels, and jaguar skin capes on their red and black painted bodies. Merchants directed trade among the cities and organized the transportation and distribution of goods. Together the members of the upper class controlled the politics, religion, and ceremony.

It is the only department which has a multi-dimensional perception in economics and politics. This department existed in the ancient past too.
