1. What is Engineering? According to Webster’s dictionary‚ engineering is the “application of science and mathematics by which the properties of matter and the sources of energy in nature are made useful to people” Engineers apply math to help design and manufacture products. 2. What did you learn about engineering that you were not previously aware of? Make a list of your insights. After taking the course Engineering Design and Graphics from the previous semester‚ I learned that engineers

Chapter 3 Problem 60 Page 133 Dividend yield is the annual dividend per share a company pays divided by the current market price per share expressed as a percentage. A sample of 10 large companies provided the following dividend yield data (The Wall Street Journal‚ January 16‚ 2004). Company | Yield % | Company | Yield % | Altria Group | 5.0 | General Motors | 3.7 | American Express | 0.8 | JP Morgan Chase | 3.5 | Caterpillar | 1.8 | McDonald’s | 1.6 | Eastman Kodak | 1.9 | United Technology

Question 1 Determine the slope for line 2x+12y-6=0 2x+12y=6 12y=-2x+6 y=-2x/12+6/12 y=-x/6+1/2 ∴m=-1/6 Find the slope of the required line‚ which is "m" (-1/6)("m" )=-1 (m)=6 Now‚ substitute m=6 into equation y=mx+c ‚i.e. y=6x+c. This line passed through point (2‚4). So‚ we substitute x=2‚y=4 into y=6x+c. 4=6(2)+c 4-12=c c=-8 ∴ The equation of the straight line that we are looking for is y=6x-8

WHY PROBLEM SOLVING? • Problem solving is the most basic of mathematical skills- the reason for studying mathematics • Problem solving is an integral part of the larger area of critical thinking‚ which is universally accepted goal for all education • Problem solving shows an interaction between mathematical ideas • In the classroom can lessen the gap between real world problem and the classroom worlds and thus set more positive mood in the classroom. WHAT IS PROBLEM? The

Mathematics and religion are two very different concepts. Scientist and Theologians have had conflicts involving the two that are usually based off of an argument that encompasses logic versus faith. However‚ using reason‚ we can come to the conclusion that it is possible for both mathematics and reason to have many different similarities. Mathematics relies on reason and logic. Although Mathematics is based off of axioms that are rarely questioned‚ we still need to justify our methods and answers

Mechanical Engineering students should expect to find careers in manufacturing‚ fabrication‚ research and development‚ and service industries. The students should be very capable in mathematics and the physical sciences. This is essential to be successful in any engineering field. Mechanical engineers should be mechanical inclined and should be able to think “outside the box”. The students should be a great problem solver and critical thinker‚ and also be a calm and laid back person that can handle
