Substitution and parallel lines
If computations eliminate all the variables and produce a contradiction, the two lines of a system are parallel, and the system is called inconsistent.
Sample set b
Solve the system
Step 1: Solve equation 1 for
Step 2: Substitute the expression
for
into equation 2.
Step 3: Solve the equation obtained in step 2.
Computations have eliminated all the variables and produce a contradiction. These lines are parallel.
This system is inconsistent.

Substitution and coincident lines
The following rule alerts us to the fact that the two lines of a system are coincident.
Substitution and coincident lines
If computations eliminate all the variables and produce an identity, the two lines of a system are coincident and the system is called dependent.
Sample set c
Solve the system
Step 1: Divide equation 1 by 4 and solve for
Step 2: Substitute the expression
for
in equation 2.
Step 3: Solve the equation obtained in step 2.
Computations have eliminated all the variables and produced an identity. These lines are coincident.
This system is dependent.

Practice set c
Systems in which a coefficient of one of the variables is not 1 or cannot be made to be 1 without introducing fractions are not well suited for the substitution method. The problem in Sample Set D illustrates this “messy” situation.
Sample set d
Solve the system
Step 1: We will solve equation
for
Step 2: Substitute the expression
for
in equation
Step 3: Solve the equation obtained in step 2.
Step 4: Substitute
into the equation obtained in step
We now have
and
Step 5: Substitution will show that these values of
and
check.
Step 6: The solution is

why is communication effective
Communication is effective because it allows individuals to share ideas, thoughts, and information with others.
effective communication can lead to improved outcomes in various settings, including personal relationships, business environments, and educational settings. By communicating effectively, individuals can negotiate effectively, solve problems collaboratively, and work towards common goals.

Every time someone flushes a toilet in the apartment building, the person begins to jumb back automatically after hearing the flush, before the water temperature changes. Identify the types of learning, if it is classical conditioning identify the NS, UCS, CS and CR. If it is operant conditioning, identify the type of consequence positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement or punishment

because it helps many people around the world to understand how to interact with other people and understand them well, for example at work (job).
Agreed 👍 There are many parts of our brains and behaviors, we really need to get to know. Blessings for everyone and happy Sunday!

A child is a member of community not society elucidate ?
Isn't practices worldwide, be it psychology, be it science. isn't much just a false belief of control over something the mind cannot truly comprehend?
compare and contrast skinner's perspective on personality development on freud
Skinner skipped the whole unconscious phenomenon and rather emphasized on classical conditioning

explain how nature and nurture affect the development and later the productivity of an individual.
nature is an hereditary factor while nurture is an environmental factor which constitute an individual personality. so if an individual's parent has a deviant behavior and was also brought up in an deviant environment, observation of the behavior and the inborn trait we make the individual deviant.

I am taking this course because I am hoping that I could somehow learn more about my chosen field of interest and due to the fact that being a PsyD really ignites my passion as an individual the more I hope to learn about developing and literally explore the complexity of my critical thinking skills
and having a good philosophy of the world is like a sandwich and a peanut butter 👍
