As we are learning the basic intellectual skills that critical thinking entails‚ we can begin to use those skills in a selfish or in a fair-minded way. For example‚ when students are taught how to recognize mistakes in reasoning (commonly called fallacies)‚ most students see

Archimedes was among the greatest mathematicians of antiquity. Mathematicians usually cover a breadth of topics within mathematics in their undergraduate education‚ and then proceed to specialize in topics of their own choice at the graduate-level. In some universities‚ a qualifying exam serves to test both the breadth and depth of a student’s understanding of mathematics; the students who pass are permitted to work on a doctoral dissertation. A mathematician is a person with an extensive knowledge of mathematics who

Assignment 4 April‚ 7 2013 Mat222 In this week of class we have been taught how to evaluate‚ combine and find inverses of working relations or functions. We will be computing‚ composing‚ transforming and finding the inverse of some functions. We are working with the following functions: f(x) = 2x+5 g(x) = x2 -3 h(x) = (7-3x)/3 We have been asked to compute (f – h)(4). (f – h)(4) = f(4) – h(4) So we can evaluate each separately and then subtract. f(4)
