Li, jose, and sam are in tenth grade. they have been assigned a group research project. jose is happy because he learns best when is given the freedom to research his favorite topics and then can bounce ideas off of others. sam is annoyed because he feels that he is far ahead of his classmates. he would prefer to do the project by himself since he knows he would get a good grade. li likes working in the group, but worries that the group will never be able to agree. she wants to split the project up so that there is one person in charge of each section of the project.

Aime chose the project

Sam is given certain tasks where she's the best (depends on her abilities)

Li can be sure that the team is not going to split away because the other two are happy

Explanation:

jose: because he works better with a subject of his own interest he will put his best on the project

sam: since he is the best he will have no worries about "letting down the ream" and will also put his best on the project

li=Since he is aware that the other two are happy with their part he can relax and trust the the three of them started the project and the three of them will finish it

reinforcement is inaccurate because reinforcement always gives positive consequences for the individual doing the behavior, be it by introducing a pleasant consequence or removing an unpleasant one.

i think that the answer is 5
