Currently Ann is the president. Each member is both a candidate and a voter. Voting is as follows: each member votes for one candidate (voting for oneself is allowed); if two or more people vote for the same candidate then that person is chosen as the next president; if there is complete disagreement, in the sense that there is exactly one vote for each candidate, then the person from whom Ann voted is selected as the next president.

You want to travel to Las Vegas to celebrate spring break and your "A" in your microeconomics class! You are trying to figure out if you should drive or fly. A round trip airline ticket from Riverside to Las Vegas costs $350 and flying there and back takes about 5 hours. Driving roundtrip to Las Vegas costs about $50 in gas and takes about 10 hours. Other things constant, what is the minimum amount of money that you would have to expect to make by gambling in Las Vegas to induce you as a rational individual to fly rather than drive? O $10 an hour $60 an hour O $70 an hour O $300 an hour
