Critical Thinking-Logical Proo
Number of words: 1856 - Number of pages: 7.... products of A can be defined as 1 when the permutation of the elementary products is even and -1 when the permutation of the elementary products is odd (Hughes-Hallet 20). These two numbers are then multiplied by their respective permutation and the whole lot is added together. When all calculations are said and done this results in a number for matrix A, in this case -58. This now leads us to the definition of an eigenvalue. Since we have already defined A as a n x n matrix we can say that the eigenvalues are the solutions of the equation obtained from taking the determinant of the matrix A .....

Ontological And Cosmological A
Number of words: 2920 - Number of pages: 11.... than God and hence God exists. His argument is also based on the premise that "the idea of an eternal being who either does not yet exist or no longer exists is self-contradictory, so that the very idea we have of such a being requires existence." (Pg. 307).
In his Meditations, Decartes offers the following version of the ontological argument. He considers the idea of God, a supremely perfect being, just as real as the idea of the existence of any shape or a number. His understanding of God's existence is no less clear and distinct than his proofs for the existence of any shape or numb .....

Linear Programming
Number of words: 534 - Number of pages: 2.... the objective functions take place in teh presence
of known or assumed restriction. The technical term constraints is used to
describe the restrictions present in linear programming problem. The
constraints are expressed mathemically as inequalities. In a practical
real-world situation, the constraints are generated by the presence of
limited resources or commodities such as capital manpower and raw material.
Mathematically, inequations can be converted to equations by the
introduction of slack variables.
Linear programming can be dated from the year 1947 when G.B. Dantzing
evolved a .....

Bartleby And Civil Disobedienc
Number of words: 562 - Number of pages: 3.... simply asks Bartleby to do easy tasks such as, “when those papers are all copied, I will compare them with you”, or, “just step around the Post Office, won’t you? And see if there is anything for me” (Melville 116). The boss, who is also the narrator, never requests Bartleby to perform any difficult chores. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s interpretation of an unjust law is, “a code that a numerical or power majority group compels a minority group to obey but does not make binding on itself” (Jacobus 159). The injustice described here by King also does not match the characterizat .....

What Is An Education?
Number of words: 956 - Number of pages: 4.... make a lot of
money." Most of the people in the United States have been brainwashed to think
that unless one has at least a high school diploma there is no future anywhere
for him. This is completely untrue. There is no guarantee that getting a high
school "education" is going to get you anywhere. A student may spend eight
years between high school and college getting an "education." He can graduate
from college with A's in every class, but still, this "education" means nothing.
For example, suppose this "Straight A" student goes for a job interview.
Obviously one of the first things t .....
