MIchael Driesen Mrs. Rozell Math 10H 17 December 2011 Vectors Math is everywhere. No matter which way you look at it‚ it’s there. It is especially present in science. Most people don’t notice it‚ they have to look closer to find out what it is really made of. A component in math that is very prominent in science is the vector. What is a vector?

convince me of this. In the following essay‚ I will expand on my feelings to prove my point. The first profession we were shown was that of Roger Sorensen. He explained to us of the difficulties he had in school and how he struggled to get a “C” in math class‚ but he pursued his dreams and became a fishing biologist. He explained that he uses data management‚ calculus‚ geometry‚ and percentages in his job all the time. The second profession the video showed belonged to Crystal Pearl. She was an
