UDNY YULE ON^ THE THEORY OF CONSISTENCE It must be noted that in the type of cases at present under discussion q cannot beless than |thj or 0166 . . , for, by the third-dGgTee conditions of consistence, (AB) + (AC) + (BC) < (A) + (B) + (C) - (U)that is it (AB) ^ (AC) ::= (BC) =: q „ (U) (A) .-. (B) r=: (C) =-- I . (U) For this value of q the planes (a) and (e) fall together into the origin ; the wholesurface, so to speak, closes up.§ 30. Case (3)--- (AB)/(U) rr: (BC)/(U) = &C. rz. 0-3., In this case the pairs of attributes are all positively associated. The first case istherefore intermediate between the second case and the present planes representing the conditions of in
