e day's lecture, Seth begins to think about lunch and his choice of places to eat. He even begins to narrow down the selection of foods that he might want for lunch. Seth is focusing on biological needs that are at present unfulfilled and have produced what might be thought of as an unpleasant state of arousal. Which of the following theories best describes Seth's experience?
a. fact-and–find theory.
b. drive theory.
c. emotional theory.
d. cognitive theory.

Answer: drive theory

Explanation: In simple words, drive theory refers to the study of psychological drives. Drive refers to natural human needs that controls the behavior of an individual.

In the given case, Seth got distracted from his lecture due to his hunger. He started thinking about the food in a more detailed manner.

Thus, from the above we can conclude that the correct option is B .

Hybrid cars are touted as a "green" alternative; however,the financial aspects of hybrid ownership are not as clear. Consider th
lord [1]

Answer:

a)

the hybrid model initially costs $5,200 more than the regular model, plus you have another $330 in extra ownership costs per year. If you plan to own the hybrid car for 6 years, then you must recoup $5,200 / 6 = $866.67 + $330 = $1,196.67 per year.

the cost of driving 1 mile with the hybrid car = $3.60 / 27 = $0.1333

the cost of driving 1 mile with the regular model = $3.60 / 19 = $0.1895

you will save = $0.0562 per mile driven

you would need to drive $1,196.67 / $0.0562 = 21,293 miles per year to make the decision worth it

b)

if you only drive 15,500 miles per year, then you would need to save $0.0772 per mile

that would only result if gasoline's price was:

x/19 - x/27 = 0.0772

0.0526x - 0.037x = 0.0772

0.0156x = 0.0772

x = 0.0772 / 0.0156 = $4.95 per gallon

c)

you must first determine the present value of all additional expenses related to purchasing a hybrid:

year         cash flow

0                -5,200

1                 -330

2                -330

3                -330

4                -330

5                -330

6                -330

Using a financial calculator, the PV = -$6,637.24

now we must use an annuity formula to determine the annual savings required using a 10% discount rate and 6 periods:

annual savings = $6,637.24 / 4.3553 (PV annuity factor, 10%,  6 periods) = $1,523.95

so you must save $1,523.95 per year and that is equivalent to $1,523.95 / $0.0562 = 27,116.47 = 27,116 miles

d)

you also need to save $1,523.95, but you only drive 15,500 miles, so the savings per mile = $0.0983

x/19 - x/27 = 0.0983

0.0526x - 0.037x = 0.0983

0.0156x = 0.0983

x = 0.0983 / 0.0156 = $6.30 per gallon

ratelena [41]

Answer:

A) $12,528

Explanation:

We should consider the rent payment as an annuity. Because we are paying, it should be considered the present value of an annuity.

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C  2,468

time 6

rate         0.05

2468 \times \frac{1-(1+0.05)^{-6} }{0.05} = PV\\

PV $12,526.8080

We are asked for the closet option, so we have to chose A) 12,528

Which of the following statements is correct? Review Later Strategic buyers are asset managers that are trying to time the purch
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Strategic buyers are asset managers that are trying to time the purchase or sale of a business.

Financial buyers are institutions that provide capital and are not operators.

Explanation:

Strategic buyers are the buyers which aim to buy the company through acquisition, or M&A in order to gain more power in the industry, basically expanding their horizons, they are competitors, or the suppliers in the supply chain, or the customers of the product, they tend to buy such companies in order to decrease their share of cost.

Financial buyers are the one which basically provides finance to the company.

In simple terms these buyers just invest in the companies and have short term or long term goals from this investment, as long as these goals in the form of expected return are fulfilled they keep the investment, as soon when they discover its profitable to sell it further and have a capital gain they do so.

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

a) P(X \leq 2)= P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)

P(X=0)=(11C0)(0.5)^0 (1-0.5)^{11-0}=0.00049

P(X=1)=(11C0)(0.5)^1 (1-0.5)^{11-1}=0.0054

P(X=2)=(11C0)(0.5)^2 (1-0.5)^{11-2}=0.027

And adding we got:

P(X \leq 2)= 0.033

b) P(X \geq 2)= 1-P(X

And replacing we got:

P(X \geq 2)= =1-[0.00049 +0.0054] = 0.994

c) P(X \leq 1)= 1-P(X

And replacing we got:

P(X \leq 1)=0.00049 +0.0054= 0.0059

Explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest "number of women", on this case we now that:

X \sim Binom(n=11, p=0.5)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}

Part a

For this case we want to find this probability:

P(X \leq 2)= P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)

P(X=0)=(11C0)(0.5)^0 (1-0.5)^{11-0}=0.00049

P(X=1)=(11C0)(0.5)^1 (1-0.5)^{11-1}=0.0054

P(X=2)=(11C0)(0.5)^2 (1-0.5)^{11-2}=0.027

And adding we got:

P(X \leq 2)= 0.033

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

P(X \geq 2)

And we can use the complement rule and we got:

P(X \geq 2)= 1-P(X

And replacing we got:

P(X \geq 2)= =1-[0.00049 +0.0054] = 0.994

Part c

For this case we want this probability:

P(X \leq 1)

And we can use the complement rule and we got:

P(X \leq 1)= 1-P(X

And replacing we got:

P(X \leq 1)=0.00049 +0.0054= 0.0059
