Answer: B. Majority rule.
Majority rule refers to choosing alternatives that have more than fifty percent of votes. This type of decision can only be achieved when there is direct democracy and only two alternatives (when more alternatives are present, it is called plurality). An example of this situation are referenda. In a referendum, people are often given two choices (most commonly, <em>yes</em> and <em>no</em>) on a single question, and they are allowed to vote directly. Most forms of democracy use majority rule along with other decision-making methods.
Answer:
As the complaint was that the car heater works at times but at other times it blows cold air, then the main culprit would be the thermostat. However, Technician B may partly be right as the coolant level om the cooling system could determine the working level of the heater also.

Muhammad’s message of monotheism does not adequately explain why the leaders of the Quraysh rejected his message so forcefully. Indeed, Muhammad preached a lot more than this: he called for a top-to-bottom reform of Meccan society, advocating for the rights of the poor and weak. While it is also true that Muhammad’s renouncement of the pagan gods was unbearable to many followers of the old religion, so too did his powerful critique of the rich and powerful set him on a collision course against them.
Answer:
she creates a positive externality for Kara and a negative externality for Susie
Explanation:
Susie lives in a dorm and likes to play loud music in her room. Her neighbor Kara enjoys the same type of music and gets pleasure from Susie turning up the music. Her other neighbor, Alex, can't stand Susie's music and gets mad when she turns it up for all to hear. When Susie plays her music loudly, she creates <u>a positive externality for Kara and a negative externality for Susie</u>. Externalities are defined as the cost or benefit affecting an individual who is not directly involved in an activity such as the production of a good or the rendering of a service. Externalities can be positive if an individual benefits from the activity. That the effect of the activity on a third party is beneficial such as Kara who benefits/enjoys Susie's music and externalities can also be negative if the activity is detrimental to the individual such as Alex who is uncomfortable with Susie's loud music.
Answer:
Non compensatory decision
Explanation:
A decision is non compensatory when good performance on one criterion does not offset from poor performance on another evaluative criterion.
In other words, the consumer only focuses in one criterion to make his/her decision (because that criterion is important to him/her) and it doesn't matter how the product compares to other in other criterions (it can happen that based on another criterion, the product is not as good as another one but the client doesn't care since the attention is focused on just one place)
In this example, Chen Lo buys only well-know golf clubs brand names, and he guides his decisions based on this rule which <u>only cares about one criterion (how well-known a brand is)</u>, the golf clubs he uses might be more expensive or others might have discounts <u>(other criterions such as price and discounts) but he doesn't even look at these because his attention is focused on only the name of the brand. </u>

Thus, he is using a non compensatory decision.
