Answer:

There will be 16 people who are both writer and editor

Explanation:

We have given there are total of 100 people

So total = 100

There are 45 writers so,Writers = 45;

It is given that there are more than 38 editors so ,Editors > 38

Both = x;

Neither = 2x

We know that

Total = Writers + Editors - Both + Neither  

100 = 45 + Editors - x + 2x

x = 55 - Editors

We want to maximize x, thus we should minimize Editors minimum possible value of Editors is 39, thus:

x = Both = 55 - 39 = 16.

Rainbow [258]
I'd say that 

C. a stone carving, is the correct answer because a reed basket, pieces of clothing and clay plots would be most likely made by women.

I don't think women have the strength to do stone carvings, it also seems like the mans job.

Hope this helps.

A trainer arranged for one of her employee training groups to see the video made from the book Effective Time Management, while
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

I would say that the best answer to the statement: The tests the trainer gave were intended to measure more than just recall of facts about the book, would be: False.

Explanation:

The example that we are shown here comes from situations that are given in a test that is known as the Watson Glaser Critical Thinking Test, and they are intended to measure the capability that a person has to reason, and think critically.

In this case, we would say that the statement is false regarding the case in question, because the trainer issues the tests not to measure either the recall, or the abilities and concepts that the students acquired from the book, but she actually wanted to see if the video format of teaching was actually more efficient than the actual book. Given that this was her intention, to measure the video vs. the book, in achieving her final goal, which was acquirement of skills and concepts on Time Management, her test must have been geared towards that end, and not to simply measure the book´s impact. It was a bonus that afterwards she found that those students who were exposed to the video later on decided to read the book. Given the information on the case itself, we can reason that the answer is false.
