You may budget to spend less than $100 on groceries or plan to spend more than 2 hours a week exercising. Both of these statements involve budgeting resources, such as time and money. However, unlike last week where only one value could solve our T=15h equation, these statements allow for a variety of situations that meet the requirements for a solution. For example, in looking at the grocery situation, a bill of $90, $85, or $98 would all fit the criteria of spending less than $100. To break this down further, you might assume that a grocery bill of $90 would include items purchased from different departments of the grocery store. Meats, vegetables, dairy, and paper products might be subgroups represented by the overall group-groceries. The value of each subgroup would not be equally represented in your grocery bill. What other situations can you imagine where the variables, or subgroups, do not equally represent the whole group? In this Discussion, you examine the groups and subgroups that may exist in your field of study or current workplace. You also explore how to diagram these groups using abstract math.

For example, if a represents dogs and c represents cats then and inequality could be: dogs>cats Using the problem-solving techniques from Week 1, decide if these inequalities are true based on the overall group you selected. Consider one potential bias or inequality that may exist in either Level 2 or Level 3 of your diagram and think about how it would create an unequal ranking between the elements on this level. Think about what the inequality would be in the context of your situation and think about how it would be expressed as a mathematical inequality. Consider who might be interested in these results, and why.

Write one inequality statements that can be inferred from your diagram, referring to your specific sub-groups (not the variables a/b/c). Explain whether you feel these inequalities are true. Express your conclusion as a mathematical inequality. Explain who might be interested in these results, and why. Read a selection of your classmates’ postings.

Written out in this context, I believe the inequality equations are true. This is because I have experienced both situations myself. Having a full-time job meant I was able to pay my bills, therefore, being a full-time student was not as important. Along with making money, I was able to have a social life and go out with friends and family, thus believing was successful in the time in my life. However, I became a mother, which has brought me to where I am now. Having a full- time job, and being a full-time student is more important than having a social life and I am on the right path to success myself and my family. Furthermore, within my community, I have observed that people can identify with either inequality equation. A potential bias that can be incorporated in the subgroup could be a person being a parent. As I have mentioned before, experienced the change from one inequality to another when I became a mother. If you were to add this variable within a subgroup in level 2, the ranking would become unequal because not all people believe that having children makes someone more successful than another. As a result, one can understand that being a full-time student or having a social life does not have to be a priority in terms of defining success. These results would be beneficial to those who are still questioning how to prioritize their goals to reach their own definition of success. Type here to search o 72°F lica 8:14 AM 9/8/2021
