Key Takeaways: Criminology

Criminology is the scientific study of crime and criminals.

It involves research to identify the factors that motivate certain persons to commit crimes, the impact of crime on society, the punishment of crime, and the development of ways to prevent it.

People involved in criminology are called criminologists and work in law enforcement, government, private research, and academic settings.

Since its beginnings in the 1800s, criminology has evolved into an ongoing effort to help law enforcement and the criminal justice system respond to the changing societal factors contributing to criminal behavior.

Criminology has helped develop several effective modern crime prevention practices such as community-oriented and predictive policing.

Criminology Definition

Criminology encompasses a wider analysis of criminal behavior, as opposed to the general term crime, which refers to specific acts, such as robbery, and how those acts are punished. Criminology also attempts to account for fluctuations in crime rates due to changes in society and law enforcement practices. Increasingly, criminologists working in law enforcement employ advanced tools of scientific forensics, such as fingerprint study, toxicology, and DNA analysis to detect, prevent, and more often than not, solve crimes.

Modern criminology seeks a deeper understanding of the psychological and sociological influences that make certain people more likely than others to commit crimes.

Deviant Personality Traits

From a psychological perspective, criminologists attempt to explain how deviant personality traits—such as a constant need for the gratification of desires—might trigger criminal behavior. In doing so, they study the processes by which people acquire such traits and how their criminal response to them can be restrained. Often, these processes are attributed to the interaction of genetic predisposition and repeated social experiences.

Many theories of criminology have come from the study of deviant behavioral sociological factors. These theories suggest that criminality is a natural response to certain types of social experiences.

(b) Find the price that maximizes revenue from ticket sales. $______________
(c) What ticket price is so high that no revenue is generated? $___________

Answers

Answer:

a) R(x) =  51000 x - 3000 x²

b) When the Revenue is maximum, The price is $ 8.5

c) When No revenue is generated, The price of the ticket is $17

Explanation:

Given - A baseball team plays in a stadium that holds 54,000 spectators. With the ticket price at $10, the average attendance at recent games has been 21,000. A market survey indicates that for every dollar the ticket price is lowered, attendance increases by 3000.

To find - (a) Find a function that models the revenue in terms of ticket price.  

              (b) Find the price that maximizes revenue from ticket sales.  

              (c) What ticket price is so high that no revenue is generated?

Proof -

Let us assume that,

The price of a ticket = x

The revenue = R

Now,

a)

Total number of tickets sold , N = 21000 + 3000(10 - x)

                                                     = 21000 + 30000 - 3000 x

                                                     = 51000 - 3000 x

⇒Total number of tickets sold , N = 51000 - 3000 x

Now,

Revenue , R(x) = x * N

                        = x [ 51000 - 3000 x ]

                        = 51000 x - 3000 x²

⇒R(x) =  51000 x - 3000 x²

b)

For maximum Revenue,

Put [tex]\frac{dR(x)}{dx} = 0[/tex]

Now,

[tex]\frac{dR(x)}{dx}[/tex] = 51000 - 6000 x

⇒51000 - 6000 x = 0

⇒6000 x = 51000

⇒6x = 51

⇒x = [tex]\frac{51}{6}[/tex] = 8.5

∴ we get

When the Revenue is maximum, The price = $ 8.5

c)

If No Revenue is generated

⇒R(x) = 0

⇒51000 x - 3000 x² = 0

⇒1000 x ( 51 - 3 x ) = 0

⇒1000 x = 0, 51 - 3 x = 0

⇒x = 0, 3 x = 51

⇒x = 0, x = [tex]\frac{51}{3}[/tex]

⇒x = 0, x = 17

∴ we get

When No revenue is generated, The price of the ticket is $17

Dalia Ramirez Anchondo deposits $ 200 into her savings annuity every paycheck. She gets paid weekly. The credit union will pay Dalia 4% compounded quarterly. What is the future value of Dalia in 4 years.


Help me!!!!

Answers

Answer: $41,418.96‬

Explanation:

There are four quarters in a year and the interest rate is a yearly rate that should be converted to a quarterly rate:

= 4% / 4

= 1%

Delia gets paid $200 a week. There are 12 weeks in a quarter so the quarterly contribution is:

= 200 * 12

= $2,400

The number of quarters she invests is:

= 4 * 4years

= 16 quarters

As this payment is constant, it is an annuity.

Value after 4 years will be:

= Annuity * Future value interest factor of annuity, 1%, 16 periods

= 2,400 * 17.2579

= $41,418.96‬

Ed lives in Merchantville , a state that has a so-called merchant protection statute (or shopkeeper's privilege). One day Ed goes to the grocery store to shoplift some steaks for dinner. The owner of the grocery store catches Ed red-handed in the act of shoplifting. He and an employee gently restrain Ed in the back room, feeding him gourmet food and wine until the local sheriff finally shows up three days later. If Ed sues the grocer for the tort of false imprisonment, he will win if he can prove that

Answers

Answer:

the gourmet food that he was fed was poorly prepared

Explanation:

Shopkeeper's priviledge is the law that allows United States shop owners detain people that shoplifted from their shop.

They must have proof that the person did the crime and also are only able to hold him for a reasonable time.

In the given scenario the shop owner catches Ed red-handed in the act of shoplifting. He and an employee gently restrain Ed in the back room, feeding him gourmet food and wine until the local sheriff finally shows up three days later.

Ed can win a tort of false imprisonment if the gourmet food that he was fed was poorly prepared.

There must be proper care given while the suspect is being detained. Being fed poorly prepared food means he was detained under conditions that could be detrimental to his health

XYZ Ltd has sent Sh.250000 of goods on wholesale price to its branch at Karatina. The Karatina branch manager has marked up the price up 40%. Find the list price of the goods at Karatina branch.

Answers

Answer:

the list price is 350,000

Explanation:

The computation of the list price of the goods is shown below:

As we know that

Markup percentage = (Selling price - cost price) ÷ Cost price

0.40 = (Selling price - 250,000) ÷ 250,000

100,000 = Selling price - 250,000

So, the selling price is 350,000

hence, the list price is 350,000

A nation that has a comparative advantage in producing a good or service compared to
another nation can produce that good or service with a lower
O Efficiency
O Profit
O Resource cost
O Opportunity cost

Answers

Answer:

Opportunity cost

Explanation:

A country is said to have a comparative advantage in producing a good, if it has a lower opportunity cost of producing that good in comparison to the other country. For instance if the opportunity cost of producing Wheat in U.S is 2. While that in China is 1. It shows that China has a comparative advantage in producing wheat as compared to the U.S.

So a nation that has a comparative advantage in producing a good or service compared to the other nation can produce that good or service with a lower opportunity cost.

Efficiency, Profit and Resource cost are not directly related to comparative advantage. Although efficiency can contribute towards lower opportunity cost but it is not a scale used for international trade.

Thus, lower opportunity cost is the best alternative.
