Proposition 19: Support or Oppose The legality of marijuana has been the subject for debate and controversy for decades. With the new generation‚ the number of supporters of marijuana legalization has increased dramatically. In the United States‚ legalizing marijuana is a major concern because it is the most frequently used illegal drug. Nearly 98 million Americans over the age of 12 have tried marijuana at least once. Politicians have thought of legalizing marijuana to increase revenue by

gays‚ bisexuals etc. and not society. Homosexuals are not abnormal humans‚ so there is no reason to treat them any different‚ after all they are citizens who oblige to the same jurisdictions. In the brief article‚ 8 Is Not Hate: The Meaning of a proposition by Jennifer Roback Morse‚ Morse explains how marriage is a gender-based institution that attaches mothers and fathers to each other and to their children‚ but I disagree with her theory of marriage. I believe marriage is based on the love‚ trust

remainder theorem The Chinese remainder theorem is a result about congruences in number theory and its generalizations in abstract algebra. It was first published in the 3rd to 5th centuries by Chinese mathematician Sun Tzu. In its basic form‚ the Chinese remainder theorem will determine a number n that when divided by some given divisors leaves given remainders. For example‚ what is the lowest number n that when divided by 3 leaves a remainder of 2‚ when divided by 5 leaves a remainder of 3‚ and

1 10/10/01 Fermat’s Little Theorem From the Multinomial Theorem Thomas J. Osler (osler@rowan.edu) Rowan University‚ Glassboro‚ NJ 08028 Fermat’s Little Theorem [1] states that n p −1 − 1 is divisible by p whenever p is prime and n is an integer not divisible by p. This theorem is used in many of the simpler tests for primality. The so-called multinomial theorem (described in [2]) gives the expansion of a multinomial to an integer power p > 0‚ (a1 + a2 + ⋅⋅⋅ + an ) p = p k1 k2 kn a1 a2

In mathematics‚ the Pythagorean Theorem — or Pythagoras’ theorem — is a relation in Euclidean geometry among the three sides of a right triangle (right-angled triangle). In terms of areas‚ it states: In any right-angled triangle‚ the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares whose sides are the two legs (the two sides that meet at a right angle). The theorem can be written as an equation relating the lengths

Kirchhoff’s Law Kirchhoff’s current law (KCL) imposes constraints on the currents in the branches that are attached to each node of a circuit. In simplest terms‚ KCL states that the sum of the currents that are entering a given node must equal the sum of the currents that are leaving the node. Thus‚ the set of currents in branches attached to a given node can be partitioned into two groups whose orientation is away from (into) the node. The two groups must contain the same net current. In general

Our group supports Proposition HHH in the City of Los Angeles. This said‚ we agree that key leaders’ have yet to create a solution to the problematic rise of homelessness in the city‚ which has been long overdue. When our group sees the astonishing data and the numbers increasing by the years‚ we see individuals who are sleeping and laying on the street calling that their home. Our group acknowledges the fact that money is a vital component in assisting this matter‚ but something else needs to be

Pythagorean Theorem: Some False Proofs Even smart people make mistakes. Some mistakes are getting published and thus live for posterity to learn from. I ’ll list below some fallacious proofs of the Pythagorean theorem that I came across. Some times the errors are subtle and involve circular reasoning or fact misinterpretation. On occasion‚ a glaring error is committed in logic and leaves one wondering how it could have avoided being noticed by the authors and editors. Proof 1 One such error appears

Fermat’s last theorem Currently holding the world record for longest standing math problem ever‚ Fermat’s last theorem went unsolved for 365 years. Fermat’s last theorem was one of the largest white whales in the study of math. Over the centuries‚ thousands were puzzled by the impossible problem. From its conception to its solution‚ Fermat’s last theorem was one of the most difficult to solve yet easy to understand problems in mathematics. First‚ I will discuss the theorem and how it was introduced
