Recently, a court ruled that current law allows tour operators that travel to potentially dangerous locations, such as the Amazon, to reject potential customers if there is a 50 percent chance that the traveler would contract malaria on the trip. The presiding judge justified the ruling, saying that it protected both travelers and tour operators.
This use of his court ruling as part of the law could not be effective if which of the following were true?

  1. The best interests of travelers often conflict with the interests of tour operators.
  2. There is currently no legally accepted method existing for calculating the risk of contracting malaria as a result of being exposed to it in a particular location.
  3. Some trips might involve health risks other than the risk of malaria.
  4. Travelers who have a 50 percent chance of contracting malaria may be unaware that their risk is so great.
  5. The number of people signing up to take trips with a tour company might decline if the company, by screening applicants for risk of malaria, seemed to suggest that the trip entailed high risk of getting the disease

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The best answer is B. The use of the court ruling as part of the law could not be effective if there were no accepted way of determining who the people susceptible to malaria were. Choice b states that there is no accepted method of calculating the risk of contracting malaria.



Since the national postal service in country X was privatized six months ago, delays in the delivery of mail have increased by 20 percent. To combat this problem, more sorting and delivering staff must be hired in the busiest regions of the country.
Which of the following, if true, casts the most doubt on the effectiveness of the solution proposed above

  1. The major causes of delays in the nation's busiest regions are bad weather and antiquated sorting equipment.
  2. Since privatization began, the number of employees has increased by 25 percent.
  3. Over 60 percent of the postal budget goes to pay salaries.
  4. After a small post sorting facility doubled its staff, the number of delays that were reported decreased by 50 percent.
  5. Since privatization, the average length of delay in the nation's busiest regions has doubled. 5. Employees

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The best answer is A. The conclusion that postal service must add to their staff is based on an assumption that the problem lies in that area. Choice A indicates that the delay were due to two other factors – bad weather and old equipment, therefore hiring additional staff is unlikely to be an effective solution.



Employees that get a thorough medical examination twice a year take fewer sick days. Even employees who get examined only once a year take less sick time than those who do not get checked. Therefore, if companies instituted in-house medical examination programs, the absentee rate in those companies would decrease significantly.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument above?

  1. Employees who get medical check ups during working hours occasionally feel ill for short periods of time after the examination.
  2. Employees who are frequently absent are the least likely to cooperate with a corporate medical program.
  3. Employees who get a thorough medical examination once a week in their company's medical program usually also get checked by their private doctor.
  4. Employees who get examined in their company's in-house medical program use their working time no more productively than those who do not get examined.
  5. Employees who get medical examinations during working hours take slightly longer lunch breaks than employees who do not get examinations.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The best answer is B. The argument states that absenteeism would decrease if an in-house medical program were instituted. However, if those employees who are most frequently absent are least likely to get examined, then the program is unlikely to solve the problem of absenteeism



In an attempt to discourage the widespread acceptance of clothing manufactured in sweatshops, the council of a small town plans to ban the sale of sweatshop goods for which substitutes manufactured under humane conditions exist. The council argues that non-sweatshop apparel is morally preferable.
Which of the following, if true, indicates that the plan to ban the sale of sweatshop goods is ill suited to the town council's moral objectives?

  1. Although clothing manufactured in sweatshops is now available, members of the town council believe non- sweatshop apparel is better for workers in the clothing manufacturing business.
  2. The clothing factory at which most of the townspeople are employed plans to improve their working conditions.
  3. After other towns enacted similar bans on the sale of clothing manufactured in sweatshops, the benefits to workers in the clothing manufacturing business were not discernible for several years.
  4. Since most townspeople prefer clothing manufactured in sweatshops in many instances, they are likely to purchase them in neighboring towns where such goods are available for sale.
  5. Sweatshops sometimes produce items other than apparel.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The best answer is D. If the town’s residents are likely to purchase the same items from another town, then the town council's objectives of limiting purchases of sweatshop manufactured clothing will not be met.



Holden’s Ltd. two subsidiaries performed with remarkable consistency over the past five years: in each of those years, Lexton has accounted for roughly 30 percent of dollar sales and 60 percent of profits, and Still more for the balance.
Which of the following can properly be inferred regarding the past five years from the statement above?

  1. Total dollar sales for each of the subsidiaries have remained roughly constant.
  2. Lexton has faced stiffer competition in its markets than hasStill more.
  3. Still more has realized lower profits per dollar of sales than has Lexton.
  4. The product mix offered by each of the company's divisions has remained unchanged.
  5. Highly profitable products accounted for a higher percentage of Stillmore's sales than of those of Lexton.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The best answer is C. If Lexton has accounted for roughly 30 percent of dollar sales and 60 percent of profits, then it has realized more profit per dollar of sales than Stillmore. There are not enough facts to support the inferences reached in the other answers.

the correct answer to q8 is b. explanation since the mule app has a dependency, it is necessary to include project modules and dependencies to make sure the app will run successfully on the runtime on any other machine. source code of the component that the mule app is dependent of does not need to be included in the exported jar file, because the source code is not being used while executing an app. compiled code is being used instead.
