discriminating: Encyclopedia II - Discriminant - Discriminant of a conic section

For a conic section defined by the real polynomial: ax2 + bxy + cy2 + cx + ey + f= 0, the discriminant is equal to b2 − 4ac, and determines the shape of the conic section. If the discriminant is less than 0, the equation is of an ellipse or a circle. If the discriminant equals 0, the equation is that of a parabola. If the discriminant is greater than 0, the equation is that of a hyperbola. This formula will ...

discriminating: Encyclopedia II - Discriminant - Discriminant of a polynomial
The discriminant of a polynomial is a number which can be easily computed from the coefficients of the polynomial and which is zero if and only if the polynomial has a multiple root. For instance, the discriminant of the polynomial ax2 + bx + c is b2 − 4ac. For the general definition, suppose p(x) = xn + an−1xn−1 + ... ...

discriminating: Encyclopedia II - Discriminant - Discriminant of a quadratic form

There is a substantive generalisation, to quadratic forms Q over any field K of characteristic ≠ 2. These can be written as a sum of terms aiLi2 where the Li are linear forms and 1 ≤ i ≤ n where n is the number of variables. Then the discriminant is the product of the ai, taken in K/K2, and is then well-defined (i.e., up to squares). A more invariant way to say this is as ( ...

discriminating: Encyclopedia II - Discrimination - Age Discrimination

Age Discrimination is discrimination against a person or group on the grounds of age. Although theoretically the word can refer to the discrimination against any age group, age discrimination usually comes in one of two forms: discrimination against youth, and discrimination against the elderly. In many countries, companies more or less openly refuse to hire people above a certain age despite the increasing lifespans and average age of the population. The reasons for this range from vague feelings that younger people are more "dynamic ...

discriminating: Encyclopedia II - Discrimination - Gender Discrimination

Gender discrimination is any action that grants or denies opportunities, privileges, or rewards to a person just on the basis of their sex. The United Nations has concluded that women often experience a "glass ceiling" and that there are no societies in which women enjoy the same opportunities as men. The term 'glass ceiling' describes the process by which women are barred from promotion by means of an invisible barrier. In the USA, the Glass Ceiling Commission has stated that between 95 and 97 per cent of ...

discriminating: Encyclopedia - Anti-Arabism

Anti-Arabism is prejudice or hostility against Arabs. Anti-Arab sentiment may be expressed in negative stereotypes. This happens, in particular, when Arabs are deindividualized and portrayed as intolerant, backward and violent, while positive aspects of Arab culture are ignored. In the Western world, Anti-Arab feelings are complicated by issues of Middle Eastern politics. As in the case of anti-Semitism (hatred of Jews), hatred of Arabs is different from political opposition to the policies of Arab states. In Europe the percept ...

discriminating: Encyclopedia II - Discrimination - Government sanctioned discrimination

By virtue of establishing nationalism (as opposed to globalism) every government has formalized and supported discrimination. Examples of discrimination within countries include: apartheid in South Africa; institutionalized racial segregation in the USA from the Civil War through the 1960s; the "Jewish problem" in Nazi Germany; and re-education camps in some communist countries. Many governments have attempted to control discrimination through civil rights legislation, equal opportunity laws and institutionalised policies ...

discriminating: Encyclopedia II - Price discrimination - Examples of price discrimination

Price discrimination - Travel industry. Airlines and other travel companies use differentiated pricing regularly, as they sell travel products and services simultaneously to different market segments. This is often done by assigning capacity to various booking classes, which sell for different prices and which may be linked to fare restrictions. The restrictions or "fences" help ensure that market segments buy in the booking class range that has been established for them. For example, schedule-sensitive business ...

discriminating: Encyclopedia II - Price discrimination - Explanation

The purpose of price discrimination is generally to capture the market's consumer surplus. This surplus arises because, in a market with a single clearing price, some customers (the very low price elasticity segment) would have been prepared to pay more than the single market price. Price discrimination transfers some of this surplus from the consumer to the producer/marketer. Strictly, a consumer surplus need not exist, for example where price discrimination is necessary merely to pay the costs of production. An example is a high-speed inte ...

discriminating: Encyclopedia II - Discrimination - The paradox of discrimination

Many people assume that when there is discrimination, one group of people is given more favorable treatment than others. This is not always the case. It is possible to have cases where it is not at all clear which group is given the more favorable treatment. Example: A country is under attack during wartime. The war is so ferocious that 80% of the combatants are killed. A law has been passed to forcefully conscript males between 18-24 years of age into the frontline, but females are forbidden to participate.See also:
