A mathematician is a person whose primary area study is the field of mathematics. Mathematicians are concerned with logic‚ space‚ transformations‚ numbers and more general ideas which encompass these concepts. Some notable mathematicians include Archimedes of Syracuse‚ Leonhard Paul Euler‚ Johann Carl Friedrich Gauss‚ Johann Bernoulli‚ Jacob Bernoulli‚ Muhammad ibn Mūsā al-Khwārizmī‚ Georg Friedrich Bernhard Riemann‚ Gottfried Leibniz‚ Euclid of Alexandria‚ Jules Henri Poincaré‚ Srinivasa Ramanujan

Zero in Mathematics Zero as a number is incredibly tricky to deal with. Though zero provides us with some useful mathematical tools‚ such as calculus‚ it presents some problems that if approached incorrectly‚ lead to a breakdown of mathematics as we know it. Adding‚ subtracting and multiplying by zero are straightforward. If c is a real number‚ c+0=c c-0=c c x 0=0 These facts are widely known and regarded to hold true in every situation. However‚ division by zero is a far more complicated

Cape Breton Fiddling – Almost a Lost Art Cape Breton fiddling began when the Scottish fiddlers were forced out of Scotland and into new worlds. They brought the traditional music of Scotland with them and continued the style into today’s world. There have been many noted fiddlers and today’s fiddlers are becoming internationally famous. Some of the newer fiddlers are incorporating other styles of music into the fiddling tradition of Cape Breton. The heart of Canadian fiddling began when the Highland

1) Calculation of Labour Utilization: No. of total employees = 22 No. of assistant supervisors = 4 Time used by assistant supervisors for production process = 100% -10% = 90% Therefore‚ the total available labour = 18 + 0.9*4 = 21.6 Maximum labour hours/ month = No. of days*labour hrs available/day*total available labour = 20*8*21.6 = 3456 hrs Actual labour hours used = 1531.7 hrs Capacity Utilization = Actual labour hours used/ Maximum labour hours available = (1531.7/3456) * 100 = 44

Part 1. Describe the order of operations and explain how it is used to simplify expressions. Explain specifically the order in which mathematical operations must be performed to correctly simplify an expression. The order of operations is a rule that always applies to mathematical problems. It includes addition‚ subtraction‚ multiplication and division as well as grouping of numbers (such as in parentheses and powers). It gives a definite order of how to do a problem involving multiple operations

Cape Verde | “Most Improved Country” | Introduction Cape Verde is a small country that spans ten islands and is 570 kilometers off the coast of Western Africa. There is very little rainfall per year and the land on most of the islands are of volcanic origin. On several of the islands the land is fairly flat‚ sandy and dry‚ whereas the rest of the islands are covered in rocky land. It‚ therefore‚ lacks in natural resources and has experienced severe droughts. Agriculture is made difficult by
