Rather than vote individually for each position, the club members will rank the candidates in order of preference. The votes will then be tallied using the Borda Count method. The candidate receiving the highest number of points will be president, the candidate receiving the next highest number of points is vice president, the candidate receiving the next highest number of points is secretary, and the candidate receiving the next highest number of points will be treasurer.

- Write your answer on your own sheet of paper and either scan it or take a picture of it and upload it or type your answers into a word document As we've learned, the weights of the players can be deceiving when it comes to determining the amount of power each individual player has. By manipulating the quota, one can make the balance of power be whatever one wants. We’re going to work with this weighted voting system: [q: 5, 4, 3] Determine what to use for the quota to get the indicated BPI values. In each case, explain how you determined your answer by either writing a sentence or two to explain your thought process, or show the work to find the BPIs to prove that your quota actually works. 1) BPI(P1) = 33.33% BPI(P2) = 33.33% BPI(P3) = 33.33% [All players have equal power] 2) BPI(P1) = 60% BPI(P2) = 20% BPI(P3) = 20% 3) BPI(P1) = 50% BPI(P2) = 50% BPI(P3) = 0% [P3 is a dummy]arrow_forwardIn a class election with 11 students and 3 candidates, how many different vote outcomes are possible?
