What is a mathematical relationship?

In a linear relationship such as represented in the equation x= b+ay. The relationship between the x and y is a direct variation. This basically means that in the above equation/situation the value of the y variable is proportional to the value of the x variable. In other words the x and y increase or decrease proportionately. If the x value decreases the y value decreases. If the x value increases so does the y value.

Now in a quadratic relationship it is a little different in that this kind of function is actually in the shape of a parabola. The equation for this relationship is ax2 + bx + c = y. The parabolic relationship exists when one variable depends on the square of another and this relationship is often expressed in saying that the y variable varies directly with the square of the x variable.

To what extent is Othello by William Shakespeare a text of worth?

OthelloShakespeare recognized the damage that is done to a relationship by jealousy. The deceit of "honest, honest Iago" ended up being more believable to Othello than were the assuring words from Ophelia. It said something about the character of Othello, who was more willing to believe Iago. It says something about the character of us all. AnswerAlongside the theme of jealousy are many other themes, such as prejudice, (Iago is prejudiced towards Othello because he is black; the women are all treated badly by the men), the influence and manifestation of evil, shown clearly in the character of Iago:-

'If thou be'st the devil, I cannot kill thee' - Othello, Act V

Also the themes of status, power, and deception are prominent. Cassio loses his position as lieutenant, which Iago then gains. All are trying to establish power of some kind at varying points in the play. Iago wants the power that status affords him, as well as the manipulative power over his fellow man and their emotions:-

'But I will drive the Moor into a jealousy so strong / That judgment cannot cure'

This he achieves, as well as, to some extent, winning over the audience by making them laugh, singing songs and being a fun character, before revealing his true demonic self. This is the biggest shock to the audience, that while we may have regarded Othello as foolish to trust Iago, we as the audience did at one point too.

Othello wants power over his own destiny towards the end of the play, which is why he kills himself (only one of the theories).

In short, there are so many important themes in Othello, showing the most intimate details of the fragile human psyche, that it gives a very clear picture of the flaws in human nature.

Incidentally, Othello's wife is Desdemona, not Ophelia, who is in Hamlet

How do you cope with a jealous partner who wants to control your every move?

Dear there are two ways you can handle that stupid guy or gal.

check into local domestic voilence classes. Not anger management. Not for him but for your knowledge. He's seeking control and he just may loose control. You would not be unwise to seek answers from a specialist. If the event is bad do you really feel it will get better or worse. You will be baffled when you find out the truth and where this road may lead you. You may one day end up the purpatrator from ptsd and end up in prison.
