Children in poor neighborhoods often have bleak outlooks on life and see little gain from studying. In a recent experiment, children in poor neighborhoods were paid $100 for each A they earned during a six-week grade reporting cycle. Suppose a participant in this experiment was expending $0 worth of effort in studying for each class before the experiment. Over the next 6 weeks, the student has a math class and an English class, where getting an A in math would require the student to exert $98 worth of effort, while getting an A in English would require the student to exert $84 worth of effort. In this experiment, the student (would or would not) increase time studying for math, and the student (would or would not) increase time studying for English.

Respuesta :

Answer:

For maths; the student would not increase time studying

For English; the student would increase time studying

Explanation:

We can make this assertion because we are told that the children are from poor neighborhoods, so they have desire to ease their financial lack.

Further, because they do not see the importance of studying, they likely would avoid the extra effort of $98 for maths when they can exert $84 worth of effort for English which is lower.
