Answer:

The city council should carefully evaluate the benefits of reduced fatalities against the costs of the light and the extra time that the drivers will spend waiting for a green light    

Explanation:

                 When the town engineer approaches the city council with a plan to install a traffic light at a certain intersection which will increased safety and will reduce the incidence of fatal traffic accidents by 50 percent per year, the city council will have to first evaluate the cost of installing the new traffic light signal at the cross section and the possibility of the proposal.

                Secondly the city council should evaluate the benefits of installing the traffic lights at the cross section comparing it with the installation cost of the traffic light to arrive at a conclusion.

Thus the answer is :

The city council should carefully evaluate the benefits of reduced fatalities against the costs of the light and the extra time that the drivers will spend waiting for a green light.

Identify the statements about education as aligning with either functionalist theory or conflict theory.
Ugo [173]

The correct answer is “Language, literacy, and math are just a few of the essential subjects that must be taught in schools for citizens to be successful there.” .

According to the functionalist view of education, the purpose of education is to develop skills, promote social cohesiveness, and sort students. Functionalists contend that schools' primary purpose is to prepare pupils for participation in societal institutions.

<h3>What does the functionalist view of education purport?</h3>

Functionalism is the belief that an object's ability to be classified as a thought, desire, or pain (or any other form of mental state) depends only on its function, or the part it plays in the cognitive system of which it is a part, rather than on its internal makeup.

Education serves many clearly defined purposes, including change and innovation, socialization, social control, culture transmission, and role distribution.

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Stranger wariness

Explanation:

Once one baby has developed a secure attachment with his/her caregiver. The phenomenon of stranger wariness starts to appear.

Stranger wariness refers to the anxiety that babies experience when they are approached by an unfamiliar person, specially when they are under novel situations. Since babies prefer familiar adults, they might react with concern, fussing or crying when approached by an stranger.

In this example, Tyra's niece gets a smile from the mail carrier and she hides her face in Tyra's shoulder and looks back at him with concern.

<u>The carrier is an unfamiliar adult who approached to Tyra's niece (by smiling) under a situation that doesn't take place very often</u> (the mail carrier stepping inside the house) <u>so the baby reacts with concern.</u> This is an example of Stranger wariness.
