known numerical values that are not subject to fractional error, and therefore do not affect the number of significant figures in a calculation. These are called “exact numbers.” Some examples include: 1 foot = 12 inches, 100 years in a century, 2.54 cm in an inch. Therefore, if a number is considered exact, it does not affect the accuracy of a calculation. When taking significant figures into account for a problem, exact numbers will not affect them either. When performing a measurement on a…

But along with the good points, there tends to be bad ones as well. They both are designed differently and teach in different ways. What students want to…

“A goal without a plan is just a wish.” This quote by Larry Elder is an explanation of the entire theme of Death of a Salesman by Arthur Miller. It is a short way of explaining that without having a strategy and plot to achieve the ideal that is to be pursued; it will not exactly turn out the way it is expected to. Many have taken wrong turns in life and can prevent the goal from being reached and being the best person possible, this is a similar situation in which Willy Loman has to suffer…

That counts for something.” “Raja,” I reached beneath the seat and took out a tablet. “Stop proving Charlie right.” I handed it to the boy and opened it up to a game. It took him a few second to figure it out again, but he was quickly back at shooting aliens as he piloted the fighter jet through space.
