Which is true of how reference groups influence consumer behavior? a. reference group norms do not constrain consumer behavior. b. consumers are prohibited from dissociating themselves from reference groups. c. consumers generally use the same criteria as their reference groups to make their own consumer decisions. d. consumers are influenced only by the reference groups to which they belong.

Option C

Explanation: In simple words, reference groups refers to the entity which directly or indirectly impacts the view of the costumers regarding a particular commodity or section of that particular commodity.

There are three types of reference groups which are as follows informative, utilitarian and expressive. Producing entities of the composites conspires such groups as of high importance because their influence and opinions can bring such producers heavy market share.

Consumers rely heavily on such sources and generally follow the perceptions that are made by such groups. Hence from the above we can conclude that the correct option is C.

bd = 9 cm

step-by-step explanation:

in a 30°-60°-90° triangle, the ratio of side lengths is 1 : √3 : 2. that is, the longest side (hypotenuse) is twice the length of the shortest side.

all of the triangles in your geometry are 30°-60°-90° triangles. ac is the hypotenuse of δacd, and the short side of δabc.

the short side ad of δacd will be half the length of ac, so 3 cm. the hypotenuse ab of δabc will be twice the length of ac, so 12 cm. segment bd is the difference of the lengths ab and ad, so is

bd = ab -ad

bd = 12 cm - 3 cm = 9 cm

comment on side length ratios

you can figure the ratios of side lengths in a 30°-60°-90° triangle by considering the trig ratios of the angles. or you can figure the length of the altitude of an equilateral triangle of side length 2 using the pythagorean theorem.
