Answer: 178 calories

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Jessica weighs 125 lbs and that she rode a bike at 17 mph for 25 minutes. It should be noted that 17 mph is thesame as 0.057 cal/lb/min.

Therefore, the calorie cost of this activity will be:

= 0.057 x 125 = 7.125

We then multiply 7.125 by the number of minutes used. This will be:

= 7.125 x 25

= 178 calories

Two firms, Gene's Gloves and Wally's Wallets, have factories near a lake. Both firms use a chemical for tanning leather. Some of
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Gene's Gloves was given the right to dump 5,000 gallons of harmful chemicals. It will need to spend $10,000 ($1 per gallon x 10,000 gallons) to substitute harmful chemicals for harmless chemicals in order to keep working.

Wally's Wallet was also given the right to dump 5,000 gallons of harmful chemicals. It will need $60,000 ($3 per gallon x 20,000 gallons) to treat those chemicals and turn them harmless in order to keep working.  

If Gene can sell its right to dump 5,000 gallons to Wally, for a price higher than $5,000 but lower than $15,000, both companies would win:

Gene would spend $15,000 in harmless chemicals but it would have between $5,001 and $14,999 in revenue from the selling of "pollution rights".

Wally will spend $45,000 in treating harmful chemicals but it will have to pay Gene between $5,001 and $14,999 for buying their "pollution rights".

maria [59]

Answer:

These two statements are correct:

A. Potential employers may have believed that those with black-sounding names had completed less education.

African Americans on average have less rates of graduation from tertirary education than White Americans.

This situation might lead some employers to develop streotypes about African Americans being less educated, when it is clearly an error, and unfair, to reject a potential employee because of stereotyping instead of making an individualized analysis of his or her abilities.

D. Hiring firms may have believed that those with black-sounding names were more likely to have a criminal conviction.

African Americans on average are incarcerated more often than other ethnic groups in the US. The reasons for this are complex but poverty and racial discrimination are two big factors. This situation causes some employees to develop streotypes, leading to unfair situations as described in the first answer.

Which one of the following is most apt to create a situation where an agency conflict could arise?A. increasing the size of a fi
Doss [256]

Answer:

C. Separating Management from Ownership

Explanation:

What is Agency

The agency refers to contractural, quasi-contractual and non-contractual fiduciary relationships which represents two to three parties. The first is a person called the agent, the second is the principal and the final is a third party. Agency authorizes an agent to act on behalf of the principal and create binding relatinships with a third party.

Agency Conflict

Agency conflict represents a conflict of interest which is unavoidable in an agency relationship where one party is to act in the best interest of the other party. Specifically, in the business or corporate settings, the agency conflict arises when there is a conflict of interest between an organisation's management and the owners of the organisation.

The challenge is that management who is the agent is expected at all times to make decisions that will constantly maximize the wealth of the owners and at times, these decisions would conflict with management's ability to maximize its own wealth

Therefore, once the management of an organisation is separated from ownership especially in a Management/ shareholders relationship, an agency conflict could arise.
