There are various arguments on the philosophical position‚ substance dualism. Substance dualism is the postulation that there are two kinds of substances: physical and mental. However‚ in this paper I will be presenting Descartes’ argument from separability‚ derived from the argument essential extension for substance dualism. In addition‚ I will be addressing Arnauld’s triangle objection to Descartes’ “clear and distinct” aspect of the conceivability premise with an example case for clarification

is by reciting the formula used to compute it. However‚ insight into the concept of standard deviation can be gleaned by viewing the manner in which it is applied. Two ways of applying the standard deviation are the empirical rule and Chebyshev’s theorem. • The empirical rule is an important rule of thumb that is used to state r/.v approximate per-centage of values that lie within a given number of standard deviations from the mean of a set of data if the data are normally distributed. The empirical

MATHEMATICAL INDUCTION 1. Introduction Mathematics distinguishes itself from the other sciences in that it is built upon a set of axioms and definitions‚ on which all subsequent theorems rely. All theorems can be derived‚ or proved‚ using the axioms and definitions‚ or using previously established theorems. By contrast‚ the theories in most other sciences‚ such as the Newtonian laws of motion in physics‚ are often built upon experimental evidence and can never be proved to be true. It

Stolper-Samuelson Theorem The Stolper-Samuelson theorem describes the relationship between changes in output‚ or goods‚ prices and changes in factor prices such as wages and rents within the context of the H-O model. The theorem was originally developed to illuminate the issue of how tariffs would affect the incomes of workers and capitalists (i.e.‚ the distribution of income) within a country. However‚ the theorem is just as useful when applied to trade liberalization. The theorem states that if

SUBMISSION QUESTION 7 EXTERNALITIES AND COASE THEOREM (a) Explain what is meant by “externalities”? (b) Consider an industry whose production process emit a gaseous pollutant into the atmosphere. Use the simple supply and demand model to demonstrate that‚ in the absence of any regulation‚ this industry’s production will result in allocative inefficiency in the use of society’s resources. Externalities is cost or benefit from production or consumption of commodity that flow to external parties
