lucy needs to buy a new laptop for her business, and she buys a particular brand even though it does not support the software that is required for her business. she does this because all her family members have used computers of the same brand all their lives. this is an example of how decision makers are constrained by

Bounded rationality.

Explanation:

Bounded rationality is the possibility that in decision-making, rationality of people is restricted by the data they have, the subjective impediments of their psyches, and the limited measure of time they need to settle on a decision.

you can lose ranking 2 ways.

1) you don't have enough points due to you expending them by asking questions/your answers are deleted.

2) your brainliest's expired. this means that brainliests, once they exceed the 30 day limit, expires. this is to ensure that you continue to contribute into the community at a constant rank if you want to continue to have/exceed the rank you have right now.

if you go to profile, and click "show more information" located on the bottom left of the box with your information (on top of the questions answered, questions asked, and friends), you will be given the following information (example):

member since : 02/13/2017, 18: 11

questions answered: 9741

questions asked: 162

no. of brainliest answers: 1575

brainliest answers in last 30 days: 10

warnings: 0 view

questions/answers reported: 2637

questions/answers incorrectly reported: 64

look at the "brainliest answers in the last 30 days". this is the one that will affect your rank other than your points. again, once your brainliest expires (was earned 31+ days ago), it will not be counted.
