Index numbers

As people with type 2 diabetes body’s develop resistance to insulin. Therefore, it is critical that diabetics know how to control their blood glucose levels with diet and exercise. One of the primary uses for the glycaemic index is to help diabetic individuals control their blood sugar. It is imperative that diabetics have a diet and exercise regime to ensure homeostasis. It is beneficial for diabetics to plan meals consisting primarily of foods from the low and medium GI…

of developing diabetes and its negative ramifications. Also, increased levels of testosterone (a hallmark of the disease) reverse while consuming low starch diets. 6. High Protein Diet + Low GI Shifting a diet to high protein and low glycemic index (GI) foods proves beneficial to those afflicted with PCOS as well. Studies have shown a significant increase in insulin sensitivity with this type of diet. Since PCOS leads to insulin resistance, it seems this option serves well to manage this…

This study examined the effects of physical factors on diversity in freshwater environments by observing invertebrate diversity in riffles and pools in a freshwater stream. It was hypothesized that differences in invertebrate diversity between riffles and pools would be due to physical factors in the environment. To test this hypothesis, invertebrates were collected from each environment and classified by their taxa, and Shannon-Simpson indices were produced from these data to analyze the…

Dunbar’s number. Dunbar’s number is, in fact, a series of numbers that represent the number of friends a typical person has that fit varying categories of familiarity and closeness. Maria Konnikova writes about Robin Dunbar’s research in her essay “The Limits of Friendship.” Robin Marantz Henig discusses the current plight of American millennials trying and failing to adjust to the world fast enough and become adults in “What is it About 20-Somethings?” Social media allows one to expand the…

Some ordered because they thought it would be fun to have their favorite numbers and letters on the number plates made specifically for them, when custom number plates were first introduced to the members of the general public. Of course, it is a fact that it's usually abundant and famous people with tailored plates hooked up on his or her high class cars. However, it soon turned out to become a very popular trend that not only famous individuals order custom plates from licensed plate makers.…

have to solve a problem to get the numbers out. The problem is 4(5+2x)-5=3(3x+7). First our mathematicians figured out 4 times 5 and 2x also 3 times 3x and 7 and reduced it to 20+8x-5=9x+21 then they subtracted 20-5 which reduced the problem to 8x+15=9x+21 then they subtracted 8x with 8x and 8x with 9x and written down its 15 =x+21 and then finally they -21 with 21 and 21 with 15 and got -6=x There is still no word on if the robbers are going to release the numbers but we will let you know as…

structures according to certain rules . Originally these elements would put be interpreted as numbers or quantities, so that the algebra somewhat originally was a generalization . The adjective " algebraic " usually denotes a relationship with algebra , such as in algebraic structure . For historical reasons, it may also indicate a relationship with the solutions of polynomial equations , algebraic numbers , algebraic extension or algebraic expression. It AGREES distinguishes between :…

I have found that number talks are really helpful for building number sense as well as assessing number sense. When I use number talks in my classroom it allowed me to easily see gaps in understanding with some of my students. Simply learning math facts through memorization is not very helpful. I can't count the number of times that I have memorized facts of some sort for a test and then promptly forgotten all of the facts after finishing the test. Our brain just doesn't work that way. If we…

that showed the number and an equal number of shapes (card 5 would have 5 stars). She gave each student 2 cards and asked them to either add or subtract the two numbers. She then would ask the students who had the most or the least. This was fun to watch because they would get so excited when they could come up with the answer and “won” the question. In the other group, she had rocks with numbers on them. Students would pick a rock. They would then have to tell what number they had. She…

Numbers are everywhere connected to everything we do. We use them to measure years, months, weeks, days, hours, and seconds. We count them in dollars and cents. We measure in feet, inches, meters and yards. The food we eat has a caloric number attached to it. We regard success and failure and distinguish ourselves according to the number of each. We age by ever mounting time. We calculate and distribute. We find comfort in the fact that 2 + 2 will always equal 4. Numbers have definite effect on…
