Because plays are all dialogue, I never really knew what was on their mind. Anyway, Proof is a play

teaching of Mathematics is enjoyable. This is true when the performance of the students is satisfactory or better. Otherwise, it is frustrating. Based from quizzes and examinations, it is observed that students have poor performance which may be due to weak foundation. Students have no mastery of on the basic skill needed in solving like integers, whole numbers, decimals and fractions. According to Smith (1989), some educators have proposed that an overhaul of the entire mathematics curriculum might

Science in Ancient Greece was based on logical thinking and mathematics. It was also based on technology and everyday life. The arts in Ancient Greece were sculptors and painters. The Greeks wanted to know more about the world, the heavens and themselves. People studied about the sky, sun, moon, and the planets. The

they are struggling mostly with Mathematics . Our feeder school is the local primary school and the total of the gr. 8 learners are near 300 every year. These Gr. 8 learners are very weak in Mathematics and the class sizes are 50 and more. The Gr 9 classes are also very big and most of them pass not Mathematics at the end of the year , but been condened to Gr. 10 . Usually there are only one gr. 10, 11 and Gr.12 class for Mathematics. The passrate for Mathematics in Gr. 9 are so poor that only

JET Copies Case Problem LaTonya Crutcher Dr. Emeka Dunu, MAT 540 6/3/13 In the JET Copies Case Problem the probability function of time between repairs is the one of the issues and the other is the loss of revenue if they do not purchase the new copier. We were asked to generate a random value for computation of times between breakdowns. Using these random numbers and the linear formula SQRT(R1)*6, which represents the slope and probability function for breakdown intervals, we were able
