The second contributing factor is dental calculus‚ which is mineralized dental biofilm‚ which is a hard‚ tenacious mass that forms on the clinical crowns of the natural teeth and other dental prostheses. i. Calculus or tartar is significant in the progression of inflammatory periodontal disease. The rough surface of the calculus holds the disease-producing bacteria of the dental biofilm close the gingival tissue and perpetuates the

discovered then extended his three laws of motion that frame the world of physics‚ and for crying out loud‚ the man invented calculus. Not just that‚ these examples aren’t even including all of his very many scientific achievements‚ inventions‚ or founds. For starters‚ Isaac Newton’s theory of “fluxions” or calculus‚ was a giant contribution to the mathematical world! Fluxional calculus is a method for treating changing or flowing quantities. This theory revolutionized the math world in ways people couldn’t

objects studied in discrete mathematics – such as integers‚ graphs‚ and statements in logic – do not vary smoothly in this way‚ but have distinct‚ separated values. Discrete mathematics therefore excludes topics in "continuous mathematics" such as calculus and analysis. Discrete objects can often be enumerated by integers. More formally‚ discrete mathematics has been characterized as the branch of mathematics dealing with countable sets (sets that have the same cardinality as subsets of the integers

He studied calculus for a large portion of his life. Newton realized the slope of a curve was constantly changing‚ and there was no effective equation to calculate the tangent line to the curve at any given point. A slope at a particular point had to be approximated

Calculus has many different applications in human life‚ especially as technology is advancing into the world of machine learning and artificial intelligence. Although humans know how to apply mathematical theorems‚ research shows that even bees apply calculus to improve their lives. Bees are very advanced in the application of math compared to other animals. It was always questioned as to why the bee uses hexagons to produce their honeycombs. Many mathematicians wondered why any random shape would

The Key of Being Successful Everyone wants to be intelligent‚ and everyone wants to know the crucial technique to be intelligent. Carol Dweck‚ the psychologist in Stanford University suggests that intelligence depends on the different mindsets in her article “Brainology: Transforming Students’ Motivation to Learn.” Also‚ I believe that one of the mindset is the key to develop intelligence and being successful.
