Examples of general will in the following topics:
-
- In parallel motion, two voices move in the same direction by the same generic interval.
- Note also that both dyads form the same generic interval (sixth).
- This will always be true when two voices move in parallel motion.
- Note also that the two dyads are different generic intervals.
- This will always be the case with similar or direct motion.
-
- Develop a general premise: constructing a presentation will require that you begin by developing your goal and translating it into a general premise you will state to your audience.
- Generate main points and organize them strategically: after you have established a premise, you will be able to generate main points to support this claim.
- Will your audience make the correct connections or get lost?
- There is also the chance that members of your audience will drift off and when they tune back in will wonder how you moved from talking about X talking about Y.
- Proper transitions will not only eliminate such questions, but will also hopefully eliminate the situation in which members of your audience drift off.

- This correlation between the price of goods and the willingness to make purchases is represented clearly by the generation of a demand curve (with price as the y-axis and quantity as the x-axis).
- The generation of a demand curve is done by calculating what price consumers are willing to pay for a given quantity of a good or service.
- For normal goods or services, demand is illustrated with a downward sloping curve, where the quantity on the x-axis will generally increase as the price on the y-axis decreases (and vice versa).
- This graph demonstrates a shift in overall demand in the market, where the generation of a new parallel demand curve is required to accurately represent consumer choices.
- As this graph demonstrates, the slope of the demand curve will vary as a direct result of how elastic consumer purchasing behaviors will be compared to price changes.
-
- Common stock generally carries voting rights, while preferred stock does not; however, this will vary from company to company.
- In many cases, the shareholder will be able to vote for members of a company board of directors and, in general, each share gets a vote as opposed to each shareholder.
- Therefore, a single investor who owns 300 shares will have more say in a voting matter than a single shareholder that owns 30.
- Many of the voting rights of a shareholder can be exercised at annual general body meetings of companies.
- An annual general meeting is a meeting that official bodies and associations involving the general public (including companies with shareholders) are often required by law (or the constitution, charter, by-laws, etc., governing the body) to hold.

- All four of the women in the figure are from different generations and will have had different experiences.
- To which generation do you belong?
- Generation X is the generation defined as those born after the baby boom ended, from 1965 to 1981.Change is more the rule for the people of Generation X than the exception.
- Millennials, also known as Generation Y, describes the generation following Generation X, from 1981 to 1999.
- Experts predict Gen AO will exhibit a thirst for instant gratification and quick fixes, a loss of patience, and a lack of deep-thinking ability.

- Such a formula will produce the $n$th term when the integer $n$ is put into the formula.
- This method of finding differences can be extended to find the general term of a polynomial sequence of any order; for higher orders, it will take more rounds of taking differences for the differences to become constant, and more back-substitution will be necessary in order to solve for the general term
- Some sequences are generated by a general term which is not a polynomial; for example, the geometric sequence $2, 4, 8, 16,\dots$ is given by the general term $2^n$.
- Because this term is not a polynomial, taking differences will never result in a constant difference.
- Given any general term, the sequence can be generated by plugging in successive values of n.
-
- Think of your preliminary work as establishing a general target.
- Will your speech be about the history of basketball?
- Will it be about specific players?
- As these questions make clear, picking a general topic is only a first step.
- An important consideration when you begin narrowing in on the specific area of your general topic is how much time you will have to deliver your speech.
-
- Therefore, you also need to choose words that will convey your ideas clearly to your readers.
- This kind of precise writing will help your audience understand your argument.
- Specific words are a subset of general words.
- In scientific, technical, and other specialized fields, writers often need to make general points, describe general circumstances, or provide general guidance for action.
- The more precise your writing is, the easier it will be for your reader to understand your argument.
-
- A binding price ceiling will create a surplus of supply and will lead to a decrease in economic surplus.
- The quantity demanded will increase because more people will be willing to pay the lower price to get the good while producers will be willing to supply less, leading to a shortage.
- An effective price ceiling will lower the price of a good, which means that the the producer surplus will decrease.
- This is generally considered a fair way to minimize the impact of a shortage caused by a ceiling, but is generally reserved for times of war or severe economic distress.
- Black markets are generally illegal.
-
- Conflict theory has three main premises: first, that society is comprised of different groups that compete for resources; second, that despite social attempts to portray a sense of cooperation, a continual power struggle exists between social groups as they pursue their own divergent and competing interests; third, social groups will use resources to their own advantage in pursuit of their own goals, even if it means taking advantage of another group of people.
- The conflict perspective of aging thus emphasizes competition between generations.
- According to the conflict perspective of aging, generations are competing over jobs.
- As jobs became increasingly scarce, younger and older generations both felt pressure to compete over available resources, enabling competition between the generational divide.
- Members of the powerful generation act as gatekeepers and orchestrate the distribution of resources and powers to be in line with their own interests, often at the exclusion of the needs of other individuals and generations.
