Answer:
Hilbert´s Hotel (by David Hilbert)
Explanation:
Imagine you are a foreign tourist that has just arrived to a town. In that town theres the<u> Hilbert´s Hotel</u>, internationally recognized for being the only hotel with <em>infinite rooms</em>. When you arrive to the lobby, you ask the manager to give you a room:
- Manager: "Im terribly sorry, but an infinite group of people has just arrived and all the rooms are full"
- You: "How is that possible? I thought you had infinite rooms
- Manager: "Indeed, but they are now full"
- You: "But that´s impossible... if there are infinite rooms they can´t all be full. I know there´s a way for me to get a room"
What would you do? You really need that room to spend the night...
NOTES: All the rooms are listed from one to infinity and only 1 person is able to stay per room.
SOLUTION
- You: "Look friend, all you have to do is tell the infinite group to move up one room, so the person staying the room 1 will move to the 2, the 2 to 3, the 3 to 4 and so on to infinity and i can take the room number 1. That way all the tourists, including me, would have a room."
EXTENSION OF THE PROBLEM
What would you do if two infinite groups of tourist´s arrives? How would you place them in the Hilbert hotel?
(hint: pair numbers are also infinite)
Significance of the problem
This particular problem is very interesting to me because it forces me to think out of the box something not only amusing but necessary to sort out day to day events.
Answer:
the covariation principle
Explanation:
Covariance states that when two different factors share a relationship with each other and if one changes, then the other factor should change as well, either negative or positive.
The same is happening with Hector's behavior. If he wins, he plays with kids (one factor), if he loses, he quits playing and watches television (the other factor).
The covariation principle: The Principle explains how we attribute a person's conduct or behavior to either the external causes (the situation) or the internal causes (their disposition).
Answer:
a. An opportunity cost
Explanation:
A trade-off is losing one property or ability of a product while gaining another property or ability.
Production possibility refers to the number of products that can be made with current resources available.
The opportunity cost is the cost of the most valuable alternative from a list of options where one has already been chosen. For example if you are going to watch a movie and if you weren't the next best option for you would be reading a book. So, the opportunity cost of watching the movie is not reading a book.
<span>This cultural practice followed by Mary's family is an example of endogamy. Inbreeding
is the union through marriage or reproductive purposes between members
of the same family or ethnic or social group (for example, a religious
group). <span>This practice is common in many countries with very
dominant cultures or in religious groups, where race or culture is
expected to be conserved through offspring.
