Define decision making and provide two strategies that one may use to make decisions. ANSWER: Decision making is the process of evaluating alternatives and making choices among them. Two strategies that one may use to make decisions is the additive strategy and the elimination-by-aspects strategy. The additive strategy involves creating a list of attributes that affect the decision and then rating each alternative based on each attribute. This strategy is often used for simple choices. The elimination-by-aspects strategy eliminates alternatives based on their attributes and evaluates each attribute in order of importance. This strategy is often used for complex choices.

Where does all the water go? according to the environmental protection agency (epa), in a typical wetland environment, 39% of the water is outflow; 46% is seepage; 7% evaporates; and 8% remains as water volume in the ecosystem (reference: united states environmental protection agency case studies report 832-r-93-005). chloride compounds as residuals from residential areas are a problem for wetlands. suppose that in a particular wetland environment the following concentrations (mg/l) of chloride compounds were found: outflow, 60.4; seepage, 73.7; remaining due to evaporation, 26.4; in the water volume, 46.8. (a) compute the weighted average of chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) for this ecological system. (round your answer to one decimal place.) mg/l (b) suppose the epa has established an average chlorine compound concentration target of no more than 58 mg/l. does this wetlands system meet the target standard for chlorine compound concentration? yes. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is too high. yes. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is lower than the target. no. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is lower than the target. no. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is too high.
