The Father of Algebra In the source‚ Shawn Overbay writes a biography on The Father of Algebra‚ Al-Khwarizmi. Overbay shows and explains the equations that Al-Khwarizmi invented and how they were used. In the source‚ the author states “Al-Khwarizmi wrote numerous books that played important roles in arithmetic and algebra” (Overbay). Not only was The Father of Algebra a mathematician‚ he was also an inventor‚ an Astronomer‚ and a Scholar. The visual source is a page from Al-Khwarizmi’s Kitab

The War Was Never A Way To Solve Problems There is no doubt that war is an evil one. The warfare and conflicts between countries has been increasing since the first wars‚ which has been due to the term ‘’Need or Want’’ which means the desire of having more than they already have‚ those desires brought greed on the people from different countries‚ In other words countries were fighting to each other without no reason‚ There is no doubt that war is an evil one.

Solutions to Graded Problems Math 200 Section 1.6 Homework 2 September 17‚ 2010 20. In the theory of relativity‚ the mass of a particle with speed v is m = f (v) = m0 1 − v 2 /c2 where m0 is the rest mass of the particle and c is the speed of light in a vacuum. Find the inverse function of f and explain its meaning. Solution. We simply solve for v: m= m0 1− v 2 /c2 =⇒ m 1 − v 2 /c2 = m0 =⇒ m2 1 − v2 c2 = m2 0 m2 v2 =⇒ 1 − 2 = 0 c m2 =⇒ v2 m2 =1− 0 c2 m2 m0 m m0 m 2 =⇒
