Answer:

Explanation:

Calculate the number of square miles if d = 120 miles

d = 120 miles

r = d/2

r = 120/2 miles

r = 60 miles

Area of radio station coverage. = pi * r * r

Area of radio station coverage = 3.14 * 60 * 60 = 11304 square miles.

1 square mile contains 100 people

11304 square miles contain x people

Set up a proportion

1 / 11304 = 100 / x                Cross multiply

x = 100 * 11304                   Combine

x = 11304 * 100

x = 1130400

That's the answer. You have to choose the correct reply.

Answer:

In the U.S. government, there are four general types: cabinet departments, independent executive agencies, regulatory agencies, and government corporations

Explanation:

Models of Bureaucracy

Bureaucracies are complex institutions designed to accomplish specific tasks. This complexity, and the fact that they are organizations composed of human beings, can make it challenging for us to understand how bureaucracies work. Sociologists, however, have developed a number of models for understanding the process. Each model highlights specific traits that help explain the organizational behavior of governing bodies and associated functions

The Weberian Model

The classic model of bureaucracy is typically called the ideal Weberian model, and it was developed by Max Weber, an early German sociologist. Weber argued that the increasing complexity of life would simultaneously increase the demands of citizens for government services. Therefore, the ideal type of bureaucracy, the Weberian model, was one in which agencies are apolitical, hierarchically organized, and governed by formal procedures. Furthermore, specialized bureaucrats would be better able to solve problems through logical reasoning. Such efforts would eliminate entrenched patronage, stop problematic decision-making by those in charge, provide a system for managing and performing repetitive tasks that required little or no discretion, impose order and efficiency, create a clear understanding of the service provided, reduce arbitrariness, ensure accountability, and limit discretion

The Acquisitive Model

For Weber, as his ideal type suggests, the bureaucracy was not only necessary but also a positive human development. Later sociologists have not always looked so favorably upon bureaucracies, and they have developed alternate models to explain how and why bureaucracies function. One such model is called the acquisitive model of bureaucracy. The acquisitive model proposes that bureaucracies are naturally competitive and power-hungry. This means bureaucrats, especially at the highest levels, recognize that limited resources are available to feed bureaucracies, so they will work to enhance the status of their own bureaucracy to the detriment of others.

This effort can sometimes take the form of merely emphasizing to Congress the value of their bureaucratic task, but it also means the bureaucracy will attempt to maximize its budget by depleting all its allotted resources each year. This ploy makes it more difficult for legislators to cut the bureaucracy’s future budget, a strategy that succeeds at the expense of thrift. In this way, the bureaucracy will eventually grow far beyond what is necessary and create bureaucratic waste that would otherwise be spent more efficiently among the other bureaucracies

The Monopolistic Model

Other theorists have come to the conclusion that the extent to which bureaucracies compete for scarce resources is not what provides the greatest insight into how a bureaucracy functions. Rather, it is the absence of competition. The model that emerged from this observation is the monopolistic model.

Proponents of the monopolistic model recognize the similarities between a bureaucracy like the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and a private monopoly like a regional power company or internet service provider that has no competitors. Such organizations are frequently criticized for waste, poor service, and a low level of client responsiveness. Consider, for example, the Bureau of Consular Affairs (BCA), the federal bureaucracy charged with issuing passports to citizens. There is no other organization from which a U.S. citizen can legitimately request and receive a passport, a process that normally takes several weeks. Thus there is no reason for the BCA to

Of the 10,000 clocks from which the sample was chosen, about how many clocks are probably not defective?
tamaranim1 [39]

The number of clocks that are not defective is an illustration of proportions

Of the 10000 clocks, 9250 are probably not defective

<h3>How to determine the number of clocks that are not defective?</h3>

From the complete question, we have the following parameter:

15 out of 200 clocks are defective

The above means that the number of clocks that are not defective is:

Not defective = 200 - 15

Not defective = 185

Express as percentage

Not defective = 185/200

Not defective = 92.5%

In 10,000 the number of clocks that are not defective would be:

Not defective = 92.5% * 10000

Not defective = 9250

Hence, 9250 of the 10000 clocks are probably not defective
