History of Classical Algebra Around grades 8 through 10‚ most students are learning the basics of Algebra 1 and 2. Where did this subject evolve from and who were the mathematicians who patented it? Was it just one civilization that came up with the concept or many that built on each other? These are all great questions to look at when looking at the evolution of Algebra. The ideas of Algebra were very slow developing‚ until a few great philosophers made some big discoveries. In order to go back

The Difficulties Math Places on Students: A Summary of “Is Algebra Necessary?” In “Is Algebra Necessary?” by Andrew Hacker‚ an emeritus professor of political science at Queens College‚ City University of New York ‚ Hacker critiques algebra‚ claiming that students are not passing‚ and that this is limiting the level of education available to them . Hacker suggests that if we make math more practical‚ by adding things such as “citizen statistics‚” more students will succeed. In the beginning of his

1. What is the exact number of bits in a memory that contains 640M bits? 640 · 1024 = 655‚360 · 1024 = 671‚088‚640 bits. 2. How many bits are in 1 Tb? You are asked to figure out the exact result. Hint: Depending on the tool used to calculate this‚ you may need to use a trick to get the exact result. Note that 220 = 1‚000‚00010 + d‚ where d is the difference between 220 and 1‚000‚00010‚ and that 1T = (1‚000‚00010 + d)2 8 bits/byte => 8 · 1 trillion or 812 => 8‚000‚000‚000‚000 3.

Animal Kingdom The animal kingdom is a taxonomic kingdom composed of multicellular‚ eukaryotic organisms. Mostly‚ their body structures become fixed as they develop‚ yet still some organisms in this kingdom have the ability to undergo metamorphosis. The majority of these organisms are motile‚ which means they can move on their own and with spontaneity. All animals are heterotrophic‚ which implies that they depend on other organisms for food. Animals live in places that provide their necessities
