My Calculus teacher told me to prepare a presentation on the maths. And she told me to select any topic from our daily life. That maths plays a very important role in our life. v ver not knowing but v ver using maths in every single second of our life. I need your help to please let me know some things what you know about my question.\n(The best answer will be selected with in 2 dayz) 4m now on.....

We use math while driving (speed, distance), cooking, making purchases, regulating temerature in our home, putting gas in our cars, wow this list is endless.\n\nEver see a house that looked wrong?  Most likely there was something mathematically out of balance with the placement of the windows & doors on the front of it.\n\nGood luck with your project!

And I assume that you know that after college you will never ever again use that worthless knowledge.  What scientist is going to be doing long hand algebra when they have a computer?  Ask your teacher who uses it on a daily basis and what percentage of the population that is.  Would you even want to as a job choice?  It's really a shame that schools require such nonsense.

Your instructor is an idiot.\nThere is no commonly accepted notation in math which puts a dot over a natural number.\nI'm really sorry that you have a numbskull for a Calculus teacher.

Well first off, certain subjects will never be thought or analyzed ever in your futur career. Take math for instance. Basic math is important, but is learned in elementary school.Calculus is for what? I took it and it has never helped me with anything at all.It's only there to pick out some people from the others. Let's say you want to get in medical school and it's a requirement. There's another student who wants in and has exactly the same notes as you, but has a higher note in math. He'll get in first. It doesn't mean he would be a better doctor than you.Maybe he just simply understood it easier, even while spending less time on it than you.But as I stated before, you could still be 1000 times better than him at your job.Hope I somehow helped you,\n-Sarah-

to get an extra credit, maybe?\n\n---\n\nseriously, I cannot figure out how you can study calculus without knowing limits: even if you only deal with numerical procedures, every iterative formula, or better, EVERY FORMULA (such as those used to find the roots of a non-linear equation, approximated integrals, derivatives and so on) needs a preventive study for convergence conditions: this involves limits!\n\nOne more step back: DERIVATIVE IS A LIMIT ! How can you apply it without knowing what it is?

Math is the basis of Engineering and Science.Without it Einstein couldn't come out with Theory of relativity and his famous E=mC^2.Math plays a big role in day to day life.So Math is very very vital.

You just answered my question (What is the most important thing you ever learned?) in the way that makes a teacher trainer believe in what she is doing!\nLook, I can't speak for the UK these days. Got qulaified -Got out! I'm on International Eductaion now and it's been my passport to the world...and a vocation I still believe in after...well too many years at the chalk face! The profession doesn't need people to make up numbers, as much as it needs dedicated professionals who seek a reward far richer than gold. I have funny feeling you are just the sort of teacher the kids are so desperately needing (and frankly deserve!)...so hang in there, cos it really is worth the slog. You can contact me for info about a curriculum based on learning to learn for life ...not for tests or govt. figures, if you're interested. jacquelinewebb@isoz.ch.

I did a paper on the History of 0,1, and infinity for a grad school paper.  It worked out really well.  There is a lot of history of how different societies developed mathematics and accepted fractions, algebra.  Good luck!

Then you should start studying.\nLearn a little at a time and always review regularly so you can remember it. Too much info at one time and you brain immediately forgets.\n\nAnd when studying for maths - don't just learn the theories and the formulas. Learn to apply them. Do lots of practice equations/questions. Eventually you'll know what to do immediately after seeing a new question. You won't even hesitate, so you'll save time for even harder questions.\n\nTrust me it works!!!

If you want to make the article more interesting, ask something about before she was a math teacher. Before college even. What she originally wanted to be when she was young, and what led to this career choice. Or ask if she has a personal motto for herself.

The Edifier has it right, but darned if I can follow the notation. You really need to see this written out like a textbook to understand what's going on.\n\nClick the link below in "sources" to see the answer hosted at my website www.calculus-help.com. Right now, Yahoo! answers, as far as I can tell, doesn't allow graphics, which makes it tricky to answer ANY math questions.\n\nPlease don't post math answers, guys, if the poster knows the answer but can't get there, and you get something completely different.

Math is used all the time in the engineering sciences.  Many physical phenomena, including fluid flow, heat transport, and diffusion can be described by appropriate partial differential equations.  In order to solve these equations and make predictions, you need to be good at calculus.\n\nIf you limit yourself to addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, you would be stuck with linear models for everything.  This means that any more complicated relationship between two variables could not be modeled continuously, and you would never be able to extrapolate with any confidence.  Thus development of new technology would be strictly trial and error (and you wouldn't even have a good trial and error system without statistics).\n\nHang in there!  Get through that math.  You don't have to like it, but you will inevitably appreciate the developments that math has enabled.

All area, wherever you go..you will use that algebra for your work. For example, the simple one, if you are working in the service company, and you have to make a report of the percentage of total complaint you receive a day...\nYou have to use your algebra.\n\nDon't ever think it's pointless..., otherwise you will hate it and later on you will regret it, that you don't pay too much attention to that subject

It's Everywhere! It's Everywhere!\nMath is everywhere and yet, we may not recognize it because it doesn't look like the math we did in school. Math in the world around us sometimes seems invisible. But math is present in our world all the time--in the workplace, in our homes, and in life in general.\n\nYou may be asking yourself, "How is math everywhere in my life? I'm not an engineer or an accountant or a computer expert!" Math is in your life from the time you wake until the time you go to sleep. You are using math each time you set your alarm, buy groceries, mix a baby's formula, keep score or time at an athletic event, wallpaper a room, decide what type of tennis shoe to buy, or wrap a present. Have you ever asked yourself, "Did I get the correct change?" or "Do I have enough gasoline to drive 20 miles?" or "Do I have enough juice to fill all my children's thermoses for lunch?" or "Do I have enough bread for the week?" Math is all this and much, much more.\n\n---------------------------------\n\nYou Can Do It!\nIf you feel uncomfortable about math, here are some ideas to think about.\n\nMath is a very important skill, one which we will all need for the future in our technological world. It is important for you to encourage your children to think of themselves as mathematicians who can reason and solve problems.\n\nMath is a subject for all people. Math is not a subject that men can do better than women. Males and females have equally strong potential in math.\n\nPeople in the fine arts also need math. They need math not only to survive in the world, but each of their areas of specialty requires an in-depth understanding of some math, from something as obvious as the size of a canvas, to the beats in music, to the number of seats in an audience, to computer-generated artwork.\n\nCalculators and computers require us to be equally strong in math. Theft presence does not mean there is less need for knowing math. Calculators demand that people have strong mental math skills--that they can do math in their heads. A calculator is only as accurate as the person putting in the numbers. It can compute; it cannot think! Therefore, we must be the thinkers. We must know what answers are reasonable and what answers are outrageously large or small.\n\nPositive attitudes about math are important for our country. The United States is the only advanced industrial nation where people are quick to admit that "I am not good in math." We need to change this attitude, because mathematicians are a key to our future.\n\nThe workplace is rapidly changing. No longer do people need only the computational skills they once needed in the 1940s. Now workers need to be able to estimate, to communicate mathematically, and to reason within a mathematical context. Because our world is so technologically oriented, employees need to have quick reasoning and problem-solving skills and the capability to solve problems together. The work force will need to be confident in math.\n\n---------------------------\n\nBuild Your Self-Confidence!\nTo be mathematically confident means to realize the importance of mathematics and feel capable of learning to\n\nUse mathematics with ease; \n\nSolve problems and work with others to do so;\nDemonstrate strong reasoning ability;\nSee more than one way to approach a problem;\nApply mathematical ideas to other situations; and\nUse technology.
