Answer:   The exact answer is: $ 39,856 approaching: $ 40.00

Explanation:  

First,  the value of the sales tax corresponding to 6% is determined:             $ 42.4  x  0.06  =  $  2,544

Now subtract $ 2,544 from the total value of the purchase

               $ 42.4 - $ 2,544 = $ 39,856 approx. $ 40.00 this is the value of the pre-tax gift

Answer:isa. an unconditioned stimulus.

Explanation:

According to classical conditioning , the unconditioned stimulus (UCS) is the one in which our response occurs naturally , automatic and unconditionally which means we don't learn how to respond.

For example a smell of your favourite pizza will immediately make you feel hungry because it actual triggers this automatic response from you. The smell of food is the unconditioned stimulus.

In Ivan Pavlov's classic experiment with dogs, when the dog smell their food , the salivating that result from them is an unconditioned response and food is the unconditioned stimulus, it an unlearned response that takes place naturally. This is the same as the meat powder above , which is the dog food.

Alja [10]

Answer:

As Mary is a newly-hired police officer, she observes two fellow officers removing drugs from the evidence room. Mary's values include devotion to loyalty, so Mary is inclined to protect her fellow officers. At the same time, Mary also believes in upholding the law. Mary's decision to report the crime had negative effects for the two officers involved, and for Mary personally. however, the rest of the community has benefited from the removal of corrupt police officers. A(n) utilitarian viewpoint would find this outcome to be ethical.

Explanation:

As we can see that Mary has taken the decision which is ethical from the utilitarian viewpoint. In utilitarian viewpoint, we decide and make decisions on the basis of the outcomes, We put efforts and decide whats going to be the likely outcome and results of our decisions. We mainly see the consequences and then proceed to make the decision. Moreover, in this viewpoint, moral values, ethics and justice is also given the main weightage. we focus not only our personal benefits but we see the benefits of large number of people. If we like something and other people do not like it then we will not make that decision. If two people in a group want to go to China for summer holidays, and five people are preferring going to London, then our decision will be going to London because in this case we can benefit more number of people. Same is the case here, Mary wants to proceed while thinking the benefits of its community.
