Decimal

accolades, surprise surprise Brie Gagen was one of the accused. Now I have long suspected her of cheating, especially in physics. She has received A+ after A+ which is not really possible, because there is so much to go wrong in physics. Even an extra decimal or a wrong label will deduct points and she got three perfect scores on physics tests: not possible. I understand some of the cheater’s points, they are just trying to stay afloat in Calculus, it doesn’t excuse their actions, but…

In this modern age of information gathering and retrieval, the thought of how and to the extent we can store information has always been an issue of paramount concern. For while libraries, hard drives, and floppy disks served their purpose in bygone times, the amount of information we have today, along with the prodigious rate it is still growing, have made them , while not necessarily obsolete, insufficient for the task. This is why the most promising method of storage in the current time is…

Topic 1: National income and the multiplier This model is based on the UK economy. The Uk economy is an open economy, so we will use the equation Y= C+I+G+(X-M). We found data on the different variables that are involved in finding the National income that allowed us to construct a national income model. We used figures for 2014. UK National Income model approximations The variables we need include: • A consumption function, C = a + b(Y-T) • An import demand function, M = k + mY •…

Part B: During the children’s early years, they learn that mathematics helps people making sense of their environments through play, investigations, real-life situations, and focused learning experiences. Children come to school with different experiences about mathematics (Anghileri, 2006; Yelland, Butler, & Diezmann, 1999). Many children enjoy singing number names, identifying how big objects and people are, labelling shapes, and using their developing mathematical understandings to think and…

Question Three Descriptive data The following is a discussion of the descriptive data for the variables systolic blood pressure , diastiloc blood pressure, gender and nationtonal insitute of health hypertension category used to decribe the sample. Within this sample of 50 particpants, the average systolic blood pressure obtained was 135.88. This average takes into consideration all scores obtained within this sample population (Loiselle et al., 2011). If the scores were rearrange from the…

deaths since World War 2. “Since Aug. 9, 1945, approximately 7 million to 10 million people have died from conflict. Before the introduction of nuclear weapons, two world wars alone led to the deaths of 70 million to 100 million — a difference of a decimal point” (Spalding).So in about a 70 year period 90% less people died in war than in about a 30 year period. Also according to Kenneth Waltz, one of the world’s most respected scholars in international relations, before nukes, the great powers…

-Renaissance Humanism, according to Jerry Brotton, was a period of intellectual transition and evolution marked by a didactic shift from Medieval scholastic concentrations to a "studia humanitatis", an adaptation of Greco-Roman learning suited to understand the present (39). The curriculum of rhetoric, history and moral philosophy gathered from this transition peaked with the invention of the printing press, contributing greatly to the dissemination of new ideas through print across Europe. This…

to eliminating uncertainties that affect science in big ways though. In nearly every measurement in every experiment, there is some level of uncertainty. Some measuring tools are more accurate than others but the farthest number to the right of a decimal point is usually rounded which can seem to have little effect on the end calculation when it involved larger objects, but it can have noticeable effects when dealing with calculations on a subatomic level. Small amounts of uncertainty in lab…

Between 1206 and 1368, an extraordinary tribe of Central Asian nomads arose in the steppes of Mongolia to form one of the world 's largest contiguous land empires in history - the Mongol Empire. Led by Genghis Khan, the Mongols, within a span of less than 80 years, grew to encompass 24,000,000 square kilometers of the continent of Eurasia. In saying so, as part of the Mongol conquests, an approximated 30 million or more people had died. However, while his image in much of the world was shaped by…

For the first question, I told the student the two fractions were equivalent. I asked him what the denominator would be for the second fraction and he said 8. He stared at the problem for a minute and then wrote “x2” next to the 1 and 4 of the first fraction. I asked him how he decided 8 was the denominator was 8 and he said “I multiplied the numerator and the denominator by 2 because 2 is the numerator in one of them.” Question 2: For the second question, I said “2/3 is equal to how many…
