Mathematical Happenings Rayne Charni MTH 110 April 6‚ 2015 Prof. Charles Hobbs Mathematical Happenings Greek mathematicians from the 7th Century BC‚ such as Pythagoras and Euclid are the reasons for our fundamental understanding of mathematic science today. Adopting elements of mathematics from both the Egyptians and the Babylonians while researching and added their own works has lead to important theories and formulas used for all modern mathematics and science. Pythagoras was born in Samon Greece

24/10/2011 MTH 110 – INTRODUCTION TO STATISTICS Session 4 – Measures of Dispersion‚ Variance and Standard Deviation Instructor: Manos Takas Email: m.takas@cityu.gr Range Look at these two sets of data: 2‚ 3‚ 4‚ 5‚ 6 3‚2‚3‚5‚13 -3‚2‚3‚5‚13 They both have a mean of 4. However‚ you can see that the first data set (21 is more spread out than the second data set. The mean doesn’t tell you this. _ To represent the data more accurately‚ you need the mean plus a measure of the spread or dispersion

The Concept of Prime Numbers and Zero MTH/110 March 14‚ 2011 The Concept of Prime Numbers and Zero Have you ever wondered about the origins of prime numbers or the numeral zero? The ancient philosophers and mathematicians from such early civilizations in Egypt‚ Greece‚ Babylon‚ and India did. Their efforts have provided the basic fundamentals for mathematics that are used today. Prime Numbers A prime number is “any integer other than a 0 or + 1 that is not divisible without a remainder
