Question: I read this background article the other day: Artworks are sold at affordable prices [6] ranging from 5 to 1500. For many of the works, the price goes up as the edition sells out. The edition runs range from 30 to 10,000 editions. Each work comes with a digital certificate that is "signed, numbered and authenticated by the artist" [7][8] Once an edition is sold out, collectors can resell their works in the online marketplace. I am facing a new situation today: The prices of John's paintings started to rise immediately after the edition sold out. they used to cost $10 but now they sell for at least $200. john had 45 paintings in this edition. The prices of Mike's paintings are at $8 a piece, because his edition hasn't sold out yet. Mike's edition run was 250 editions. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which painter was less successful at selling their paintings?
Answer: Mike
[Q]: I read this background article the other day: Any unused energy in food, whether it comes from carbohydrates, proteins, or lipids, is stored in the body as fat. An extra 3,500 Calories of energy results in the storage of almost half a kilogram (1 pound) of stored body fat. People who consistently consume more food energy then they need may become obese. Obesity occurs when the body mass index is 30.0 kg/m 2 or greater. Body mass index (BMI) is an estimate of the fat content of the body. It is calculated by dividing a person's weight (in kilograms) by the square of the person's height (in meters). Obesity increases the risk of health problems such as type 2 diabetes and hypertension. I am facing a new situation today: Two groups of people were part of a nutrition study. Group O was made up of individuals that consumed an extra 2000 calories per day, while group B had a normal daily caloric consumption. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which group had fewer obese people?
****
[A]: group B
input: Please answer the following: I read this background article the other day: Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in matter. In everyday usage, temperature indicates a measure of how hot or cold an object is. Temperature is an important parameter in chemistry. When a substance changes from solid to liquid, it is because there was an increase in the temperature of the material. Chemical reactions usually proceed faster if the temperature is increased. Many unstable materials (such as enzymes) will be viable longer at lower temperatures. I am facing a new situation today: John is a scientist. Yesterday, he conducted several tests, test A, test B, test C, test D, test E, and test F. In test A he kept a substance in solid state. Then in test B he changed the same substance to liquid state. In test C he conducted a chemical reaction in room temperature. Then in test D he conducted the same chemical reaction in higher temperature. In test E he kept some enzymes in high temperature. Finally, in test F he kept the same enzymes in lower temperature. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which test would be faster, test C or test D?
++++++++++
output: test D
Please answer this: I read this background article the other day: We discussed earlier some basic principles about the behavior of gases called the kinetic-molecular theory. Among other things, this theory suggests that gas molecules are in constant motion, and the average speed of the individual gas particles is dependent upon temperature the higher the temperature, the faster the molecules move. It is not just gas particles that are in constant motion. The molecules and ions that make up liquids and solutions are also continually moving in nearly random directions. As a result, molecules and ions in a solution will collide with one another fairly frequently. As with gases, a temperature increase will produce an increase in the average particle speed. I am facing a new situation today: While out camping, Susie and Bob both make their own campfires to cook food on and keep warm. Susie puts a pot of water on her fire to use for coffee, and Bob puts his own pot of water on top of his fire. Suddenly, an odd man comes up and asks if he can measure their water pots for his scientific research. Hesitantly, Susie and Bob both agree, but feel odd about the situation. The man tells them that Susie's water molecules are moving very fast and Bob's aren't moving much. The man then sprints away. Bob and Susie look at each other with confused expressions. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Are the molecules in Bob's water colliding more or less frequently than Susie's?
++++++++
Answer: less
Problem: I read this background article the other day: Distance decay is a geographical term which describes the effect of distance on cultural or spatial interactions. The distance decay effect states that the interaction between two locales declines as the distance between them increases. Once the distance is outside of the two locales' activity space, their interactions begin to decrease. With the advent of faster travel, distance has less effect than it did in the past, except where places previously connected by now-abandoned railways, for example, have fallen off the beaten path. Advances in communications technology, such as telegraphs, telephones, broadcasting, and internet, have further decreased the effects of distance.[1] I am facing a new situation today: Chad invested massively in railways and highways over the past decade. They also funded many IT projects and telecom infrastructure. On the other hand, Bahrain invested less, and didn't do much to improve communication pathways and technologies between different villages. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which country experiences less interaction between two locales?

A: Bahrain
input: Please answer the following: I read this background article the other day: Marine pollution is a generic term for the entry into the ocean of potentially hazardous chemicals or particles. The biggest culprits are rivers and with them many agriculture fertilizer chemicals as well as livestock and human waste. The excess of oxygen-depleting chemicals leads to hypoxia and the creation of a dead zone.Marine debris, which is also known as marine litter, describes human-created waste floating in a body of water. Oceanic debris tends to accumulate at the center of gyres and coastlines, frequently washing aground where it is known as beach litter. I am facing a new situation today: The Malegese Ocean is primarily connected to one river. This river is next to Hilda's farm that she has lived on for decades. Ever since she was a child, she was taught that it's important to dump excess fertilizer into the river. So, that's what she does whenever she has leftover fertilizer she isn't going to use. The Dundrin Ocean is connected to many rivers. However, these rivers are located primarily in uninhabited and natural areas of the world. There is one farm near the Dundrin, though, which is owned by Luke. Luke never disposes of any of his garbage in the ocean or rivers near his farm, and he chooses instead to store excess fertilizer for the future or properly dispose of his trash. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Who is causing more marine pollution?
++++++++++
output:
Hilda
