  2. Space and Math • Math is used in daily lives everywhere. Math is used when playing games, riding bikes, and much more. You may not realize it, but math is used in space too. • Astronauts use math in their jobs. They use it to track space stations. Also, to calculate space trips. They also use math to calculate to metrics. • Did you know the ISS orbits Earth at 17,400 miles per hour? To help many people understand this speed, they compare it to many everyday objects. You would also need math to calculate temperature changes. • Most days in space your day would be filled with work. About 25% research.20% maintenance and 30% exercise. This takes up 75% of your day. What would you do with the other 25%? • By kohl carter

  3. Taking Notes is Easy • Taking notes in math is easy as 1, 2, and 3. It’s a key factor in mathematical succession. After mastering the art of good note taking, one can rise to mathematical perfection. Here is three easy steps to the art. • Step one is getting ready. A quick review of the notes. Remembering where your sensei left off is very important. Once you have a grasp of the material the art has begun. • Step two is the note taking. Focus is crucial in the art of note taking. A child who pays attention will catch the note grasshopper. Anything the sensei says twice or writes is important. • Step three is the rewrite. True, it is additional work, however it will help. It is a great way to review. The most important and sacred rule to note taking is make the notes your notes. Now, that you have learned the ancient techniques…master the lesson. By kohl c

  5. Challenge of the Week • Challenge Time! • Brendan went to Toronto to see a Blue Jays game. He had $650.00 for the trip. It cost him $40.00 for his ticket to the game, $216.00 to stay 2 nights at a hotel, $329.00 for his flight and $29.00 for food. He met a man on Young Street who was running a small casino. Brendan bet $5.00 in Black Jack and won an amount of money that was triple what he had left after making the bet. He spent half of this at the ball game. How much money did Brendan take home? • ANSWER: [$750 - (216 + 100 + 40 + 329 - 5)]  3/2 = $90.00 • www.mystx.ca • kohl

  6. Nascar Fast Math • Eric Burnett • Math in NASCAR • NASCAR is yet another sport in which math plays a big role. The cars raced in NASCAR don’t have a fuel gage. So you would have to find out how miles you can drive on one tank of Sunoco race fuel. Once you have the number of miles you can drive, you can determine how many times you will need to pit. • Math is also used when it comes to the tires used in NASCAR. Along side fuel, tires are also determine when you should pit. To have a good chance to win, you have to know how many laps you can run with a set of tires. Pretty much you have to do the same as you did for the fuel. • What makes NASCAR, NASCAR is the speed of the race. The drivers can go as fast as they want on the track, but they have a limit on pit road. The limit on most pit roads is forty-five miles per hour. The cars don’t have a speedometer. You would have to use you rpm to determine the mph. • The most important aspect of NASCAR is the car’s aerodynamics. This how much the oncoming wind slows the car down. The aerodynamics change for every track. To perfect the aerodynamics you have to adjust the rear wing, front splitter, and other things. Doing those require the knowledge of measuring, division, and fractions.

  7. Car Racing • Eric Burnett 3/8/10 • Math in Sprint Car Racing • Math is used in sprint car racing in many ways. One way is for counting laps. Sprint cars have no radios. A usual race lasts about 30 laps. With no communication, the drivers have to keep track of the laps. • As a sprint car driver you would also need math to find the amount of gas that you need. A sprint car holds 28 gallons of methanol racing fuel. That full tank will last about 40 laps. At the end of the night you’ll have ran about 60 laps. So you will have to fill up the tank at least once. • Sprint cars do not have a speedometer. Some pits at the race track have a speed limit. So, in order to avoid a penalty, you have to calculate your actual speed. But, you can go as fast as you want to on the race track. • The most important part of sprint car racing is the wing on the top of the car. The more pitch that the wing has, the less the car will slide. The more pitch the front wing has, the more the front of the car will stay on the track. When the top wing is towards the back of the car, the less the car will turn. The more forward the wing, the more the car turns.

  9. Your mexican piggy Bank by Jorge • YOUR PIGGY BANK • Dad gives you money every day to put in your new piggy bank. He gives money to you in such a way that the money in the piggy bank doubles with each passing day. If you already have 1 cent in the piggy bank and Dad gives you 1 cent the first day, 2 cents the second day, 4 cents the third day and so on, then your piggy bank gets full on the 10th day. 1. On which day will your piggy bank be half-full? For example, type 6 if your answer is 6th day. • 9 • 2. In addition to Dad's contributions, if Mom also gave you 1 cent the first day, 2 cents the second day, 4 cents the third day and so on, then on which day would your piggy bank be about half-full? For example, type 6 if your answer is 6th day. • Answers • 1: 9 • 2: 8

  10. Women in Math • Women in Math • Women play an important role in mathematics. One famous  mathematician is Maria Agnesi. Maria's family was very wealthy, her  father was a mathematic professor at the University of Bologna. By her  father, he made Maria into a child prodigy.             Her father brought his colleagues to his home so Maria  could present speeches. In 1738, she assembled almost 200 of the  speeches she had presented to her father's gatherings. Her father  married twice more. Maria was the eldest of 21 children.               In 1783, Maria started teaching her younger brothers  mathematics by the books she wrote. InstituzoiniAnalitiche was  Maria's first book she wrote. It had two volumes, which each volume  had over 1,000 pages each. Over a decade later from her first book  Maria Agnesi died in 1799.~mayfield~

  17. Women in Math 2nd Look • There are alot of women in mathematics. One of those  mathematicians is Alicia Scott. She was born on June 8, 1860. Alicia's  father was thenmathematician George Boole. She lived with her  grandmother after her father died.            In her teens, Alicia became interested in four-dimensional  hypecubes. She was secretary to John Falk, and an associate of her  brother-in-law, Howard Hinton. She spent alot of time working on four- dimensional convex solids. In 1900, she published an article on three- dimensional sections of hypersolids.              She married Walter Stott, an actuary, they had two  children. Her husband wrote Pieter HendrickSchoute about Alicia's  models. Pieter saw photo's of the models and moved to England to work  with her. She worked on deriving Archimedean solids from Platonic  solids.          With Schoute behind her, Alicia published her own papers. In  1914, colleagues of Schoute's at Groningen invited Scott for a  celebration. The celebration was planned to award her an honorary  degree. She never got the award because Schoute died before the  celbration could be held. In 1930, Alicia started collaborating with  H.S.M. Coxeter on the geometry of kaleidoscopes. Alicia also  constructed cardboard models of the "snub 24-cell." In 1940, Alicia  Scott passed away.~mayfield~

  18. Mexican Bank Breaker • Try to fill in the missing numbers. • The missing numbers are integers between 0 and 9.The numbers in each row add up to totals to the right.The numbers in each column add up to the totals along the bottom.The diagonal lines also add up the totals to the right.

  19. Rebel Article by Wayne “the Rebel”Goodson • Albert Einstein was born at Ulm, in Württemberg, Germany, on March 14, 1879. After his retirement he continued to work towards the unification of the basic concepts of physics, taking the opposite approach, geometrisation, to the majority of physicists. Albert Einstein was one of the greatest geniuses of all time. In 1886 he began his school career in Munich. He studied mathematics, in particular calculus, beginning around 1891.
