Linear Equations Research Paper

629 Words3 Pages

How can I take Linear Equations out of the classroom into the real world? There have been some ways that I have noticed them being used on television, and in my daily life. They can be used for many things. A few different ways that they can be used are calculating how much something cost, or how much of a discount you are getting on something. When I go shopping for clothing I always look for discounted prices. I used math to figure out what the original price was to determine if I am actually getting a true discount. I went into one of my favorite stores Aldo and went into the shirt isle. The shirt was discounted for $15, the discount was 35% how much did the shirt originally cost?. The shirt originally priced at $23.08, the equation that I used to figure the original price was p-0.35p=15.00, 0.65p=15.00,p=15.00/0.65= $23. 08. …show more content…

You have two cars racing at high speeds towards a finish line, and linear equations help determine the speed, time, and distance to the finish line. The cars are both going 100 miles per hour times the distance to the finish line. When I look at the news, they are always talking about gas prices, and the fact that the gas prices increase during the summer due to traveling. I often wonder how much gas stations sale in gas a day or just in general after a few sales. I could use a linear equation to determine how much the gas prices are per gallon and multiply that by the number of people who have purchased the gas. Gas prices sometimes increase due to economical reasons and gas can be one price on the way to school, and and a higher price by the time you get

    Caldesmon 1 is a gene that is located on Chromosome 7: 134.74 – 134.97 Mb which encodes a calmodulin binding protein. (15) The products of CALD1 such as Calmodulin- and actin-binding proteins play an essential role in the regulation of smooth muscle and nonmuscle contraction. (16) CALD1 inhibits ATPase activity of myosin in smooth muscle like calponin. Caldesmon (CaD) is an actin-linked regulatory protein found in smooth muscle and non-muscle cells.

    P4 – Describe the three structures of the skeletal muscle (Epimysium, Perimysium and Endomysium) There are three structures of the skeletal muscle: Epimysium is a thick layer of irregular connective tissue that pulls the entire muscle as well as protecting the muscle from friction that may be caused by other muscles and bones surrounding them. Also, it is the fibrous tissue which covers and surrounds skeletal muscles. The Epimysium carries on past the end of bones in order to create muscle tendons. Perimysium surrounds a bundle of muscle fibres, it is a casing of connective tissue.

Then you keeping descending down so -4x^2 would be next. Then you look at the numbers and variables in the problem, all you have left is 9 and -x you always put the variable first so it would be -x, then 9. So your answer would be

    In \cite{Romauera92}, Romaguera pointed out that if $X=\mathbb{R}^+$ and $p : X \times X\to \mathbb{R}^+$ defined by $p(x, y) = \max\{x, y\}$ for all $x, y \in X$ then ${CB}^p(X)=\emptyset$ and the approach used in Theorem \ref{THM201} and elsewhere has a disadvantage that the fixed point theorems for self-mappings may not be derived from it, when ${CB}^p(X)=\emptyset$. To overcome from this problem he introduced the concept of mixed multi-valued mappings and obtained a different version of Nadler's theorem in a partial metric spaces. \begin{definition} Let $(X, p)$ be a partial metric space. A mapping $T : X \to X \cup {CB}^p(X)$ is called a mixed multi-valued mapping on $X$ if $T$ is a multi-valued mapping on $X$ such that for each $x\in X$

    We work with a Boolean Language whose basic symbols are $\vee,\wedge,\neg,\Rightarrow$ endowed with a finite set of atoms $\mathcal{A}$. The set of literals, $\mathcal{L}$, is the set $\mathcal{A}\cup\{\neg p|p\in\mathcal{A}\}$. A pair formed by a literal together with its negation is called a conjugated pair. Here we give the (classical) definition of valuation over a Boolean formula. That is the definition we will use henceforth. \begin{definition}\label{BOOLFOR:def}

    5. Public trials and executions serve as a deterance of deviant behaviors. These sanctions act as a way to set an example and for people to see what will happen to them if they do the same thing, These sanctions can also be seen as reinforcing boundaries. Although public executions and trials in “town square” are not as common in most countries today, the media is utilized to fulfil the same purpose. When there are high profile cases going on in the United States often tmes the full trial and sentancings are televised so that much of society can see what the repercussions are for defying a social norm.

    “One thing is certain: The human brain has serious problems with calculations. Nothing in its evolution prepared it for the task of memorizing dozens of multiplication facts or for carrying out the multistep operations required for two-digit subtraction.” (Sousa, 2015, p. 35). It is amazing the things that our brain can do and how our brain adapt to perform these kind of calculations. As teachers, we need to take into account that our brain is not ready for calculations, but it can recognize patterns.

Although the British colonies settled in the Americas late, they quickly became a dominant force in the new world. After they acquired their first permanent settlement in Jamestown, VA in 1607, the British became attracted to greater power and more land, which was the first building block of perhaps the most powerful European nation of the time period. Due to their growth in the Americas, the British were able to be compared to the Spanish colonies of the time period, which boosted the English’s confidence.

    Next, Eisenhower cites the poor condition of the current highways. He claims that the highway conditions increase the cost of using a vehicle by one cent per mile. Considering that in 2015, on average, most Americans drive 12,000 miles per year , saving an extra penny for each of those miles every year would make a significant impact. Eisenhower stated that poor highway conditions cost the United States 5 billion dollars per year, and that those costs were suffered not just by the individual driver, but by the entire nation, through transportation costs in the distribution of goods.
