CASE PROBLEM: President’s Advisors President gets advice from his pool of advisers every time he needs to make a decision. He has 13 top advisers that he really relies on. But if all of them are involved in any decision‚ they always end up in an argument where more often than not‚ the final decision is not achieved. To resolve this‚ a scheme was devised where only 5 of the 13 will be randomly chosen to decide on a certain matter. They achieved this by having the 13 advisers arrange themselves

Law Benford’s law‚ aka first-digit law‚ states that in lists of numbers of naturally occurring data‚ the leading digit is distributed in a specific‚ non-uniform way. In number sequences‚ most people assume that in a string of numbers sampled randomly all nine numbers would be equally probable for the leading digit. Benford’s Law states otherwise. He found that the number 1 will appear first about 30% of the time and the number 9 will only appear first around 4.5%. Naturally occurring can be anything

goal means more students will be able to solve a mathematical problem‚ independently‚ using a method that suits them. They can then develop their learning to improve their knowledge and apply it to real life situations; such as counting in groups of numbers such as 5’s or 10’s‚ which in turn can be applied when paying for shopping with money. As students progress they can build on these skills‚ by recording the levels of achievement‚ they can be supported to help fully access the curriculum. All teachers

sixth row‚ the pattern for the numerator for the first five rows is observed. Since the numerator is the same in each row (not counting the first and the last number in each row)‚ I can observe the numerator in the middle of each row. The numerators from row 1 to row 5 are 1‚3‚6‚10‚15 Table 1: A table showing the relationship between the row number and the numerator. The table also shows the relationship between the numerators in each row. Row | Numerator | 1st differences | 2nd differences | 1

called decimal systems. Decimal numbers are normally numbered from 0-10. Decimal numbering is sometimes referred to as base 10. The second numbering system that computers use is binary systems. Unlike the decimal system‚ there are only two numbers used in binary systems. One of these numbers is zero that represents false and off in computer‚ math‚ and measurement. The other number in the binary system is one that represents true and on for computer math. Binary numbers are sometimes referred to as

main uses for a mathematical language were utilitarian. It is believed that agriculture was invented in Mesopotamia‚ as the land between the rivers provided for much fertile ground (5). Because of this‚ research has found that the Babylonians made a number system to represent livestock‚ produce‚ and their basic way of life. According to Elanor Robson‚ they used “…small clay ‘tokens’ or counters’‚ made into various geometric...shapes” (2) . For them‚ each counter had both a qualitative and a quantitative
