TOK Reflection: Mathematics To what extent is math relevant to your life and the lives of others you know and how can it become an even more viable area of knowledge. “In mathematics I can report no deficience‚ except it be that men do not sufficiently understand the excellent use of the Pure Mathematics.” Roger Bacon (1214-1294) Mathematics: the abstract science of number‚ quantity‚ and space; a subject considered by many to be useless‚ a waste of time‚ and too difficult. “When am

As students‚ we are taught the basics about mathematics. What the core properties of addition‚ subtraction‚ multiplication and division mean. How they work‚ and if we are lucky‚ we go into a little history of these methods. For those of us who have learned history‚ we learned that the basis for modern mathematics came from the Greeks and their writings. While this is correct‚ to truly understand the historical aspect of mathematics and its origins‚ one must study a time before the Greeks‚ when math

1) Calculation of Labour Utilization: No. of total employees = 22 No. of assistant supervisors = 4 Time used by assistant supervisors for production process = 100% -10% = 90% Therefore‚ the total available labour = 18 + 0.9*4 = 21.6 Maximum labour hours/ month = No. of days*labour hrs available/day*total available labour = 20*8*21.6 = 3456 hrs Actual labour hours used = 1531.7 hrs Capacity Utilization = Actual labour hours used/ Maximum labour hours available = (1531.7/3456) * 100 = 44

Part 1. Describe the order of operations and explain how it is used to simplify expressions. Explain specifically the order in which mathematical operations must be performed to correctly simplify an expression. The order of operations is a rule that always applies to mathematical problems. It includes addition‚ subtraction‚ multiplication and division as well as grouping of numbers (such as in parentheses and powers). It gives a definite order of how to do a problem involving multiple operations

Ancient India Technology In ancient Indian mathematics was known by the general name of Ganita‚ which included arithmetic‚ geometry‚ algebra‚ astronomy and astrology. It was Aryabhatta‚ who gave a new direction to trigonometry. The decimal system too was an innovation of India. By the third century B.C. mathematics‚ astronomy and medicine began to develop separately. In the field of mathematics ancient Indians made three distinct contributions‚ the notation system‚ the decimal system and the use
