measurements in a bell-shaped distribution lie within standard deviations of the mean. • • We are asked to use Chebyshev’s theorem to determine the minimum percentage of the students’ commute distances that lie between and . To do this‚ we can express the values and in terms of their distance from the mean (in standard deviations) and then apply Chebyshev’s theorem. We are told that the mean is and the standard deviation is . Note that and or‚ equivalently‚ and

in math. He is best remembered for his number theory‚ in particular for Fermat’s Last Theorem. This theorem states that: xn + yn = zn has no non-zero integer solutions for x‚ y and z when n is greater than 2. Fermat almost certainly wrote the marginal note around 1630‚ when he first studied Diophantus’s Arithmetic. It may well be that Fermat realized that his prove was wrong‚ however‚ since all his other theorems were stated and restated in challenge problems that Fermat sent to other mathematicians

numbers and encountered irrational numbers. We continue our discussion on real numbers in this chapter. We begin with two very important properties of positive integers in Sections 1.2 and 1.3‚ namely the Euclid’s division algorithm and the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic. Euclid’s division algorithm‚ as the name suggests‚ has to do with divisibility of integers. Stated simply‚ it says any positive integer a can be divided by another positive integer b in such a way that it leaves a remainder r that is

The current understanding of knowledge and the universe by man today stems from many centuries ago when philosophers attempted to understand the seemingly chaotic world around them. The Greek philosophers Plato and Aristotle are responsible for some of these major early discoveries and are a big reason as to where we are today due to their endeavors to understand various philosophical topics. In this essay‚ I am going to explain Plato’s views on knowledge and science‚ Aristotle’s views on change

enough to make sure that a concept is true. In order to consider if a mathematical statement is true or not‚ we can use the formal system‚ developed by Euclid. This model of reasoning includes three key elements: axioms‚ deductive reasoning‚ and theorems. To reason formally‚ you must accomplish these steps in this order. The simplest form of proof is using the axiom system‚ which is a basic assumption. This is a form that is a firm foundation for knowledge in the mathematical sense in which statements

Boltzmann and James Clark Maxwell created a law for the distribution of energy among the various parts of a system at a specific temperature and derived the theorem of equipartition of energy. This law states that the average amount of energy involved in each different direction of motion of an atom is the same. (The Editors of Encyclopædia Britannica) For example‚ the theory helps explain the motion and speed
