Answer: Mencius

Explanation:

Mencius was a Confucian scholar who was said to have been revered only second to Confucius himself. Mencius believed that human beings were born with good seeds in them that inclined them towards good.

In an argument with Gaozi who was another scholar, Mencius noted that human nature is inclined towards doing good much like water is inclined towards flowing downhill.

How did the tariff impact the economies of the South and the North differently?
olga55 [171]
<span>Good Morning!

Many analysts call the conflict between the south and north, in the American Civil War, a "tariff war". The north financed its industrialization through high rates of imports of primary goods, which undermined the economic functioning of the south, which in turn required agricultural machinery.

According to behaviorists through ______ reinforcement we engage in behavior designed to gain something we want.
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

The correct answer would be Positive Reinforcement. According to Behaviorists, through Positive reinforcement we engage in behavior designed to gain something we want.

Explanation:

Positive reinforcement is a concept in Psychology. This concept states that if a person, or any subject, is given reward of the desired actions, then the subject is likely to do it more often.  The reward will increase the chances of occurrence of the desired action. This reward will act as the reinforcement stimuli.

There can be so many examples of positive reinforcement. Like

  • When a mother praises her child on his/her good grades.
  • Teachers give appreciation certificate to students with full attendance.
  • Dogs are given something special to eat when they follow what master asked them to.

So reinforcement will help us to gain something we want. The rewards will make the actions happen again and again.

A(n) _________ procedure starts with an initial solution and uses it as a basis to calculate a series of solutions
Temka [501]

A(n) <u>iterative</u> procedure starts with an initial solution and uses it as a basis to calculate a series of solutions.

In computational mathematics, an iterative process is a mathematical procedure that produces improved approximate solutions to a class of problems from initial values, where the nth approximation is derived from the previous approximation. A specific implementation of an iterative process that includes termination criteria is the iterative process algorithm.

An iterative procedure is called convergent if the corresponding sequence converges to a given initial approximation. Mathematically rigorous convergence analysis of an iterative procedure is usually performed. However, iterative methods based on heuristics are also common.

By contrast, direct methods attempt to solve the problem through a finite set of operations. If there is no roundoff error, the direct method gives the exact solution. Iterative methods are often the only option for nonlinear equations. However, iterative methods are often useful in linear multivariate problems where direct methods are prohibitively expensive, even with the best computing power available.
