Step 1
List all of your options as the row labels on the table, and list the factors that you need to consider as the column headings. For example, if you were buying a new laptop, factors to consider might be cost, dimensions, and hard disk size.
Step 2
Next, work your way down the columns of your table, scoring each option for each of the factors in your decision. Score each option from 0 (poor) to 5 (very good). Note that you do not have to have a different score for each option – if none of them are good for a particular factor in your decision, then all options should score 0.
Step 3
The next step is to work out the relative importance of the factors in your decision. Show these as numbers from, say, 0 to 5, where 0 means that the factor is absolutely unimportant in the final decision, and 5 means that it is very important. (It's perfectly acceptable to have factors with the same importance.)
Tip:
These values may be obvious. If they are not, then use a technique such as Paired Comparison Analysis to estimate them.
Step 4
Now multiply each of your scores from step 2 by the values for relative importance of the factor that you calculated in step 3. This will give you weighted scores for each option/factor combination.
Step 5
Finally, add up these weighted scores for each of your options. The option that scores the highest wins!
Answer:
b. Antarctica's ice
Explanation:
Earth is flatter at the South Pole than the North Pole because of the weight of the Antarctica's ice.
The Antarctica ice cap is the largest single mass of ice on earth. It covers almost 14 million square kilometers and it weighs 26,500,000 Gigatons.
As a result of this heavy weight, it compresses the South Pole of the earth causing the earth to be flatter at the South Pole.
This gives the Earth its slight pear shape.
“A sport may gain IOC recognition but not become a competing event at the Olympic Games. Bowling and chess are recognized sports, but they do not compete at the Games. To become a part of the Games, the sport's IF must apply for admittance by filing a petition establishing its criteria of eligibility to the IOC.” Britannica
