Math Blog

This year has been very informative and we learned new things such as proportions, fractions(add,subtract,multiply,divide), etc. One day if I become a banker I will remember Mr.Boehm hopefully to thank him for teaching me the basics of interest and fractions.
We learned how to figure out I=PTR which means interest is equal to principal amount x time x ratio which is percent. In life you could use this if you are buying a car our any household appliances(electricity)
Or probabilities if I want to bet on a horse or the lottery. Or fractions when cooking or percentages when writing out checks and taxes.
We also learned how to add and subtract decimals. That will help us when we buy from a store, which also includes needing to know percentages so we know how much tax we will need to pay.
This year I have learned many things, but next year I’m hoping that I will be able to comprehend better and also learn new things.

Some new science and acheivements that are going on in my region are, new cars, new technology and others. Lets me tell you aboout some of them.
First, they have come out with a new m odel of the Lambougini. It is faster and has more "buttons" aka controls than the older Lambourgini. Secondly, German_Russian PET bottle recycling company has started in Russia. "We are recycling dirty PET bottles from the trash dumps into clean PET flakes." "We would like to offer you newest PET recycling technology from Italy." Lastly,Online advertising is changing the mix of media choices in campaigns across Europe. Since 2000 the web has become established as a mainstream consumer media channel in most European countries. Across the continent, marketing budgets are now starting to follow the migration of the audience’s eyeballs and people’s focus. They are yet to reflect the full truths emerging in media consumption within the digital networked society, but they do reveal a clear picture of the scale of change that has started in where the advertising industry places its focus. The pace of digital development and the balance of digital in the mix continue to vary greatly between countries, and this paper records a snapshot of where the markets were in 2005.What emerges is a shift in marketing spend on a scale previously unseen, and the certainty that growth will continue at rates never witnessed among traditional channels.
Now that Europe has better technology they should have changed by now, and that is recent technology in my region.
