Connections between Mathematics and Blackjack Using the idea of probability to describe the outcomes of real life phenomena has been an invaluable tool for many different fields. The concern of the present discussion is blackjack. Though to some a seemingly trivial topic‚ the use of probabilistic strategies in blackjack and other gambling games has earned many players a fair amount of reward (Thompson‚ 2009). Indeed‚ some of the earliest applications of probability were motivated by gambling games

when particles obtained cannot be divided further. Democritus called these indivisible particles atoms (meaning indivisible). How and why elements combine and what happens when they combine. Antoine L. Lavoisier laid the foundation of chemical sciences by establishing two important laws of chemical combination. (a) The Law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. (b) The law of constant proportions which is also known as the law of

The philosophy of science is concerned with the assumptions‚ foundations‚ methods and implications of science. It is also concerned with the use and merit of science and sometimes overlaps metaphysics and epistemology by exploring whether scientific results are actually a study of truth. In addition to these central problems of science as a whole‚ many philosophers of science also consider problems that apply to particular sciences (e.g.philosophy of biology or philosophy of physics). Some philosophers
