Aaron Griffin Math 4091A March 17‚ 2015 The Cartesian Coordinate System Linear inequalities (statements such as “4≤X+10<18”) can be represented graphically along a number line. In similar manner‚ a linear equation in two variables (this being the form ax+by=c) can also be represented graphically‚ using two axes; the x axis‚ the horizontal plane‚ and the y axis‚ the vertical plane. There are memory tricks with which to distinguish the x from the y axis and remember their horizontal and vertical

Cartesian Skepticism to Existentialism The nature of our reality and existence has been a topic of debate since at least the ancient Greeks. Do we exist? Why do we exist? Does it even matter? These are questions I will attempt to address thoroughly. Answers may not be comfortable or satisfactory‚ but it’s better to rip that band-aid off now than continue blindly in the dark. Rationalism and Empiricism have both attempted to prove existence‚ but at their most extremes they fall apart. Using
