<u>Answer:</u>

This is an example of self-serving bias.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • In such self serving bias, people usually take credits or attribute positive things to their own.
  • On the contrary, they can easily blame others for negative events.
  • Thus, when Penny got the acting job, she made herself responsible, boasting about her own caliber.
  • However, when she failed to take the next acting work, she blamed the casting director.
  • There may be a reason that she may not had done her previous work with perfection, but self serving bias didn’t let the person evaluate that.

Elis [28]

The correct answer is C. Anticipatory socialization

Explanation:

In sociology, the term "anticipatory socialization" describes a process in which an individual learns the abilities, actions, values, beliefs, etc. of a group they want to belong to. This means individuals prepare for fitting into a group and therefore for a future role. This occurs in the case of Sumaria, because as she wants to be a business major and belong to the business group she attends a business school to train for his role as well as the actions, values, and abilities this role involves.

While working the evening shift, Officer Kay took 8 hours to complete a task at her work station and Officer Ming took 10 hours
Marina CMI [18]

Answer: Approximately 4 hours and 27 minutes.

Explanation: Let Officer Kay's hours be represented by 1/8

and Officer Ming's hours be represented by 1/10.

That means that Officer Kay completes 1/8 of the job in 1 hour and Officer Ming completes 1/10 of the job in 1 hour.

If they work together,

It would be 1/8 + 1/10 =

Finding the LCM of the denominator, which is 80,

Addition of 1/8 and 1/10 is 9/40.

Let T be the amount of time it takes the two of them to finish the job,

then 9/40 of the job x T (expressed in hours) has to equal 1 job.

So, (9/40) x T = 1,

therefore T = 40/9 = 4.444 or 4 and 4/9.

Converting 4.444 to hours and minutes, we have 4 hours 27 minutes.

This means it would take 4 and 4/9 hours (about 4 hours and 27 minutes) for Officers Kay and Ming to complete the task together.

Vika [28.1K]
Answer: Her current situation is explained by sensory adaptation.

Sensory adaptation it's when the sensitivity to a stimulus decreases as a consequence of constant exposure to the stimulus.
When the stimulus starts, the neurons will begin firing action potentials. After a while in the same environment, you'll most likely have forgotten all about that sensation (in this case the fan noise) even though the stimulus is exactly the same.

4. An American was hitchhiking in Italy and got picked up by an Italian truck driver. The American spoke no Italian, but was flu
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

The difference of dialect is not the issue. The Latin connection is.

Explanation:

To start with, we can assume that the American doesn´t speak a Spanish dialect, because dialects are generally spoken by minorities in their own home country. The reason why the truck driver believes the American speaks an Italian dialect is simple: it´s due to the fact that Spanish is a Latin lenguage, i.e. the lenguage spoken by the Romans (first only in Rome, then all over Italy during the beginning of the Roman Republic and by 117 AD the Roman Empire and it´s lenguage was all over Europe). The similarity of Spanish and Italian is a bit like Dutch and German, because Dutch has German roots, whereas Spanish has Latin roots.
