The distinction between subject and object is a basic idea of philosophy. A subject is a being that exercises agency, undergoes conscious experiences...

such cases, it means "we buy/sell our local currency at the rate shown" (examples from Google Images). For example, suppose that the spot price on a particular...

Suppose that we measure changes in blood pressure as a percentage change rather than in absolute values. Then, depending in the exact numbers, the average...

We can visualize contours of f given by f(x, y) = d for various values of d, and the contour of g given by g(x, y) = c. Suppose we walk along the contour...

conditions. While the boundary is often ignored in textbooks, it is crucial in the study of flows. Suppose we have a "flow", i.e. the generator of a smooth...

committed to epistemological absurdities. Suppose that a speaker can have the concept of water we do only if the speaker lives in a world that contains H2O...

give to our earth a high temperature; and if, as some suppose, at one period of its history, the air had mixed with it a larger proportion than at present...

consider the following example. Suppose that we wish to estimate the effect of a university tutoring program on grade point average (GPA). The relationship...

2 H2 ⇌ CH3OH Suppose we were to increase the concentration of CO in the system. Using Le Chatelier's principle, we can predict that the concentration...

Philosophy. The dictum is also sometimes referred to as the cogito. As Descartes explained in a margin note, "we cannot doubt of our existence while we doubt...

therefore changes more rapidly between nearby points. Now suppose that we arbitrarily fix a gauge at one point in space, by saying that the energy at...

well), we find out that the marginal product of capital is always positive; that is, increasing capital leads to an increase in output. Example Suppose A =...

therefore 4NF is satisfied. Suppose the franchisees can also order books from different suppliers. Let the relation also be subject to the following constraint:...

using Monte Carlo simulation. Suppose the total number of scenarios is very large or even infinite. Suppose further that we can generate a sample ξ 1 ,...

Suppose the goal of an experiment is to study the effect of a treatment on some quantity, and so we shall compare research subjects by measuring the quantity...

derivative: Theorem 2: Suppose that f ( x , ⋅ ) {\displaystyle f(x,\cdot )} is absolutely continuous for all x ∈ X {\displaystyle x\in X} . Suppose also that there...
