It is also an irrational number—it can not be put into a fraction, and its decimal goes on forever, never repeating. The first digits of e are 2.718281828459. e was discovered by a few mathematicians: Huygens, Oughtred, Jacob Bernoulli, Mercator, and Leibniz. However, they did not know its significance and really did not grasp that they had even found anything. Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler began using it around 1727, and named it e (he did not name it after himself).[/SIZE][/FONT][/I] [FONT=verdana][SIZE=3][I] e is used in [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithm']logarithms[/URL], [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_growth']exponential growth[/URL] (for things like growth of money or populations over time), and [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_number']complex numbers[/URL]. e can be calculated as the summation ∑1/n! where n starts at 0 and goes to ∞. Where do you come into contact with e in daily life? For one, it is used in the formula for [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_interest']compound interest[/URL]. The formula is as follows: A=Pert. In this case, A= the amount of money in the account; P= principal invested; r= interest rate; and t= amount of time the money has been there. [/I][/SIZE][/FONT] [I][FONT=verdana][SIZE=3]Other special numbers include pi (π) and phi (ɸ). Pi is the circumference of a circle divided by its diameter; it starts with the digits 3.141592653 and is [URL='https://www.checkiday.com/99733b001d1d263a392cc5e856c42c5f/pi-day']celebrated on March 14[/URL]. Phi is also called the [URL='https://www.intmath.com/numbers/math-of-beauty.php']"beauty" or "golden" ratio[/URL] and starts with the digits 1.6180339887.

The early enrollee is considered to be one of the top offensive linemen in the 2023 recruiting class. Simmons left his home country of Sweden to play high school football at Clearwater Academy International. “They reached out to me on Twitter,” Simmons said. “I had a great coach, Dan Meyer, so he really took care of me, basically teaching me the basics of football. It’s so different in America than Sweden.” Football wasn’t completely new to Simmons. His father played at the University of Oklahoma in the 1990s. However, Simmons got a later start than his new Florida State University teammates — not picking up the game until age 13 with a club team in Stockholm. “I played everything: soccer, basketball, floorball, handball. Anything I could get my hands on,” Simmons said. “Basically, it came down to football, obviously.” The Swedish offensive lineman moved to the Sunshine State and enrolled at Clearwater Academy International before his junior season. He had immediate success because of his size: six foot eight and 300 pounds. “I was tall my whole life. I didn’t want to accept it,” he said. “I was the tall guy that wanted to play small. I didn’t want to play big. I played soccer, I played floorball, and I didn’t want to use my frame or strength. It took me a year into playing football—I kind of like this sport and I got to use my frame. There was this one time it clicked. ‘Oh, I’m so much bigger than this guy.’ It took off after that.” ...[/I] [B][MEDIA=bleacherreport]278464[/MEDIA] (BR; BT)[/B] [I] In the 55-year history of the ACC, there have been many great players.

Obviously, I could say Notre Dame, but let's assume for the sake of this article that the Irish are not giving up their football independence - ever. Now that Texas, Oklahoma, USC and UCLA are all "off the board", what's left? The answer to that question could depend on the goal - and more revenue is too general (that's almost always the goal!). Do you want the schools which bring the most new TV revenue? Then you probably want the teams with the highest TV ratings. Do you want the schools which can win national championships while in the ACC? Then you may want those who aren't so reliant on television money. Here are some ways to evaluate potential expansion candidates.[/I][/SIZE] [HEADING=2][SIZE=4][I]Best ACC expansion options, based on gross revenue:*[/I][/SIZE][/HEADING] [SIZE=4][I][B]Best Texas school options not in/headed to the SEC:[/B][/I][/SIZE] [SIZE=4][I] These schools are actually pretty good fits for the ACC, too. They're both private schools, not too big (but not too small), well-supported, and both have good football history. Unfortunately, they're also both under a GoR for the next two years which, most-likely, they will agree to extend, and they are both under an estimated $80 million exit fee to boot. [B]Conclusion #1:[/B] For all intents and purposes, Big XII teams are off the table. That also goes for the three newest additions from the American Athletic Conference: Cincinnati, UCF, and Houston. So, which teams might the ACC realistically add? [/I][/SIZE] [SIZE=4][I] * basically, gross revenue is an attempt to isolate what the athletic department brings in apart from conference revenue, student fees, or government or school subsidies. [B]SMU[/B] is rumored to be in discussion with the Pac-12 about possible expansion of that conference, although to be honest, that's probably on the condition that San Diego State is #11 and SMU is #12. [B]Memphis[/B] has shown an ability to compete with the "big boys" in both football and basketball, but some ACC teams would take issue with that school for non-athletic reasons. [B]Temple[/B] has potential and would help fill in the gap in the ACC footprint between UVa, Pitt, Syracuse and Boston College. [B]USF[/B] is an ACC kind of a school and would easily get "Yes" votes from every school outside of the Sunshine State, but the conference wouldn't admit them if either Miami or Florida State was strongly opposed, in my opinion.[/I][/SIZE] [HEADING=2][SIZE=4][I]Best ACC expansion based on average attendance[/I][/SIZE][/HEADING] [SIZE=4][I]The ACC’s average football attendance is around 48,000 per game, give or take.

The money will help develop 370 units of new housing in the first three phases of an anticipated multi-year, 12-phase project. The first three phases will include the redevelopment of an area bordered by South State and South Townsend streets, between East Adams Street and Burt Street, according to planners. “This is going to be gorgeous,” Hochul said of the planned improvements. “A once thrilling neighborhood, divided by a highway. Now we are going to start fixing the wrongs of the past.” The plan would demolish and replace Pioneer Homes – the state’s oldest public housing project – along with the McKinney Manor and Central Village public housing developments over the next 10 years. The work would coincide with the $2.25 billion project to demolish the elevated portion of Interstate 81 in Syracuse and replace it with a tree-lined boulevard through the heart of the city. A public-private partnership would gradually replace public housing with a mix of public housing and market-rate homes. The new neighborhood would include low-rise apartments and townhouses and amenities like childcare, job training, education, recreation, retail and green space. Planners say the idea is to create a neighborhood with housing for low, moderate and high-income residents. A nonprofit called Blueprint 15 unveiled a master plan for the region last year. The group was formed by the city, the Syracuse Housing Authority and the Allyn Foundation, which is focused on fighting poverty. Hochul, speaking at the Marriott Syracuse Downtown this morning, said she planned to join Mayor Ben Walsh later today on a tour of the neighborhood. The governor’s office said it did not know what other sources of public or private funding have been secured to start the first three phases of the project. In addition to the funding announced today, the state plans to make a tax-exempt bond program available to developers through the New York State Homes and Community Renewal agency. ...[/I][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
