Answer:    C. Because it can be used to make goods

Explanation:  Sand can be found, except on the beach, in river beds, in the desert, etc. Sand is considered a resource because it is used in the glass industry, then for insulation, for different processing of materials with the help of sand, for making different products of sand, etc. In addition, sand is a renewable resource, which means that a constant amount of sand is produced naturally through various erosive and other processes in nature. It is estimated that more sand is produced annually than is used for a variety of purposes as a material for the production of goods.

Explain why a group taking a vote on something is an example of direct democracy
Ainat [17]

  The direct democracy or pure democracy it´s a form of democracy in which the people directly decides on policy initiatives, it differs from the representative democracy; the one that it´s currently established in the majority of the countries; because in that the people choose the representantives and they are those who decide the policies to carry on. In the representative democracy the people do not govern, it´s a common mistake to mix both concepts.

  Two different forms of direct democracy are participatory democracy and deliberative democracy. The deliberative democracy is a form in which the deliberation it´s a central matter to the decisions and it is seen as an amalgalm of the direct and the representative democracies. It holds that for a democratic decision to be legitimate, it must be preceded by an authentic deliberation not a mere voting.

  The participatory democracy is one that emphasizes the broad participation of everybody but it demands to the citizens to be more involved in the political participation.

  I think that a group taking a vote on something is an example of a participatory democracy because everyone have the same power to create consensus and, at last it would win the iniciative that obtain more votes. If the example was a representative democracy then the group would have to vote for only one person to make a decision and then the group will follow the "leader" choice althought it goes against the majority of what the group wants.

I hope the answer to be useful for you. Regards.

A student wondered if more than​ 10% of students enrolled in an introductory Chemistry class dropped before the midterm. Suppose
Burka [1]

Answer:

The test result would accept the alternate hypothesis stating that 'More than 10% of the students enrolled in an introductory Chemistry class dropped before the midterm'.

Explanation:

In this case, the null and alternate hypothesis would be:

Null Hypothesis: Less than or equal to 10% of the students enrolled in an introductory Chemistry class dropped before the midterm.

Alternate Hypothesis: More than 10% of the students enrolled in an introductory Chemistry class dropped before the midterm.

A Type I error is when a true null hypothesis is rejected by mistake or due to an error. This means that it is true that 'Less than or equal to 10% of the students enrolled in an introductory Chemistry class dropped before the midterm' but this is rejected due to an error or mistake. Hence, the alternate hypothesis will be found as the result of the test due to the error.
