Ten fingers. What can we count on ten fingers? Most of you could count how many siblings you have, how many days until winter break, or how much money you have in your backpack. For me, I can count how many schools I've been to so far in my life, 8. It may not seem like a lot but consider they are towns, cities, and even countries apart.People say it's easier for me since I was "little" and I won't remember the friends I've made or worry about customs I had to change from moving to a different…

Marie-Sophie Germain Although she is not well known, Marie-Sophie Germain contributed much to the fields of mathematics, philosophy, and physics and proved to be an exceptional physicist, mathematician, and philosopher throughout her lifetime. Overcoming all obstacles thrown her way, Germain fought relentlessly for her education and proved to not only her parents, but the whole mathematic and scientific community that women could be successful. From the start of her life, Germain was blessed…

as the following: 〖ax〗^2+bx+c=0. Next, the constant number is to be moved to the other side of the equation. Another important rule in math is that whenever a number is moved, the sign changes. In this case the constant “c” is positive, and later changed as “-c” when moved to the right side of the equation. As a result, it should look like the…

The number following the decimal point indicates whether the alloy is a casting (.0) or ingot (.1 or .2). A capital letter prefix indicates a modification to a specific alloy. Example: Alloy - A356.1 the capital A (Axxx.x) indicates a modification of alloy 356.1 the number 3 (A3xx.x) indicates Silicon plus copper and/or magnesium series. The 56 (Ax56.1) identifies the alloy within the 3xx…

the list goes on. I had a notebook in the third grade in which I would write numbers from one and beyond. Unfortunately that list was never finished; the fact that one could begin to write numbers from the day they were born to the day they would die and would not even be close to infinity is both scary and fascinating to me. This blew my eight year old mind. It sparked this passion in me to expand my knowledge of numbers, how they work and why they worked. Now I’m engaged in Calculus trying to…

of all numbers: The dictionary meaning of prime is ‘Of first importance’ or ‘Of the best quality, excellent’ etc. What is so great about prime numbers? A number is said to be a prime if it is divisible only by 1 and itself. 5, for example, is a prime number because it is divisible only by 1 and 5. The number 4 can be divided by 1, 4 AND 2. So it is not a prime number. Numbers that are not primes are said to be composite numbers. The fundamental theorem of Arithmetic states that all numbers are…

in an organization. Job Evaluation Methods Positioning: arranges the job description from greatest to least taking into account an inclusive distinctness of relative value or contribution to the organization’s success. Classification: deciding the number of classes and composing class descriptions to classify the limits between each class. A position classification is chosen by comparing the whole job with the…

12-18-14 Subject: Honors Chemistry / Period 5 Introduction: The periodic table is a table of the chemical elements in which the elements are arranged by order of a atomic number. The periodic table also has a special name for its vertical columns. Each column is called a group. The elements in each group have the same number of electrons in the outer orbital. Those outer electrons are also called valence electrons. They are the electrons involved in chemical bonds with other elements. Every…

The formula is written like this, (a + 1)(b + 1)….(z + 1) where a, b, …., z are considered to be the exponents of prime number. So looking at 225 we know that it has prime numbers 2 and 5 with a exponent of 2 next to the 2. So using our formula we will now use (2 + 1)(1 + 1) = (3)(2) = 6. Now when we’re looking at this there are many different possibilities of factors of 20. When looking at the term…
