Description
When a system changes from a given initial state to a given final state, both the work W and the heat Q depend on the nature of
the process. Experimentally, however, we find that the quantity Q – W is the same for all processes. It depends only on the initial and final states, and does not depend at all on how the system gets from one state to the other. All other combinations of Q and W, including Q alone, W alone, Q + W, and Q - 2W, are path dependent; only the quantity Q – W is not.

A basic assumption is multiple linear regression model is that the rank of the matrix of observations on explanatory variables is the same as the number of explanatory variables. In other words, such a matrix is of full column rank. This, in turn, implies that all the explanatory variables are independent, i.e., there is no linear relationship among the explanatory variables. It is termed that the explanatory variables are
orthogonal.
