Design Elements - Point The point is the first and simplest element of visual design. The point serves as the focus of a visual‚ highlighting or drawing attention to important information. Several points in combination may represent a more complicated object or idea. For example‚ constellations can be thought of as points in the sky representing the figure we "see." A series of points can attract attention‚ especially as they move closer together. Remember to use points or

Scandium is a chemical element with symbol Sc and atomic number 21. A silvery-white metallic transition metal‚ it has historically been sometimes classified as a rare earth element‚ together with yttrium and the lanthanoids. It was discovered in 1879 by spectral analysis of the minerals euxenite and gadolinite from Scandinavia. Scandium is present in most of the deposits of rare earth and uranium compounds‚ but it is extracted from these ores in only a few mines worldwide. Because of the low availability

Therefore‚ human element is considered an investment in the bright future of the institutions. Human resource is an innovative element that is described as an interactive rather than a rigid element‚ which is able to coordinate‚ maintain a balance between the various constituent of production and take the responsibility for the results of operations. On the other hand‚ external circumstances‚ such as the economic‚ political‚ social cultural and environmental factors‚ affect human element more than any

Throughout in this text V will be a vector space of finite dimension n over a field K and T : V → V will be a linear transformation. 1 Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors A scalar λ ∈ K is an eigenvalue of T if there is a nonzero v ∈ V such that T v = λv. In this case v is called an eigenvector of T corresponding to λ. Thus λ ∈ K is an eigenvalue of T if and only if ker(T − λI) = {0}‚ and any nonzero element of this subspace is an eigenvector of T corresponding to λ. Here I denotes the identity mapping

At common law‚ conduct could not be considered criminal unless a defendant possessed some level of intention — either purpose‚ knowledge‚ or recklessness — with regard to both the nature of his alleged conduct and the existence of the factual circumstances under which the law considered that conduct criminal. However‚ for some

Simplex Method Paper Simplex Method Paper Many people may be wondering exactly what the simplex method is. The simplex method definition is a method for solving linear programming problems. According to Barnett‚ Byleen‚ and Karl (2011) the simplex method is used routinely on applied problems involving thousands of variables and problem constraints. George B. Dantzig developed the simplex method in 1947. In this paper the topic of discussion includes how to solve a simplex method problem that

Elements of Democracy I believe Canada does not have a true democracy. Canada does not exhibit three of eight elements of democracy: political equality‚ common good and human dignity. One of the elements of having a democracy is political equality. Political equality is when every citizen has the right to vote and run for office and to speak on public issues. However the requirement to be able to vote and run for office in Canada is you must be a Canadian citizen and be above the age of 18. I think
