Description

This example demonstrates how to find 50% of 250 using a double number line. The solution shows two parallel number lines: one ranging from 0 to 100% and the other from 0 to 250. By aligning 50% on the percentage line with its corresponding value on the numerical line, we can see that 50% of 250 is 125. This method visually represents the concept that 50% is equivalent to one-half of a quantity.

This is the transcript for the video of same title. Video contents: Why do rivers meander instead of traveling in a straight line? In going from point A to point B, why should a river take the circuitous route it does instead of a direct path? Furthermore, what information can the ratio of the river's length to its straight-line distance tell us? In this segment the geological forces that account for a river's motion are explained. In the process, the so-called Meander Ratio is explored. Students construct a mathematical model of a meandering river using the TI-Nspire. Having built the model, students then use it to generate data to find the average of many Meander Ratios. The results show that on average the Meander Ratio is equal to pi.
