A 6-foot sub valued at $25 is divided among five players (P1, P2, P3, P4, P5) using the last diminisher method. The players play in a fixed order, with P1 first, P2 second, and so on. In round 1, P1 makes the first cut and makes a claim on a C-piece. For each of the remaining players, the value of the current C-piece at the time it is their turn is given in the following table: Player 2 Player 3 Player 4 Player 5 Value of current C-piece $3.50 $7.00 $6.50 $4.00 Which player gets his or her share at the end of round 1? What is the value of the share to the player receiving it? a. Player 4, value $5.00. X b. Player 4, value $6.50. c. Player 3, value $5.00. d. Player 3, value $7.00.

A media personality argues that global temperatures are not rising, because every year an increase is reported, such as 0.09 degrees C. The difference from the previous year is less than the margin of error of about 0.13 degrees C, so that difference should be ignored. What is a strong counter argument? The difference is only 0.4 but that is still a significant change. The change of 0.9 is not a lot and thus should be ignored. The margin of error is larger than the increase so we should consider it an issue just extra information and thus can be ignored. The margin of error is quite small compared to the change year over year, so it is a significant issue.
