Investigating the Phi Function
The phi function is defined for any positive integer[IMAGE](n), as the
number of positive integers not greater than and co-prime (have no
factor other than 1 in common) to n
Example
So [IMAGE](12) = 4 because the integers less than 12 which have no
factors in common with it except for 1 are 1,5,7,11 i.e. there is 4 of
them.
I started to investigate the phi function of numbers from 2 to 24 so
I could find patterns, which I can use to create a formula for the[IMAGE](n)
term

At a young age I knew as an African American woman through activism, educational autonomy, and community service, I can thrive through the wake of extreme poverty and turmoil faced by the people of my neighborhood of East New York. My interest in Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Inc., would be based solely on their ethical standards, history, and values they are founded upon. The ladies of this organization exude exemplary character who excel in sisterhood, respect, honesty, accountability, and integrity. Throughout my life I always encouraged myself to have these ideal characteristics without knowing that one day I would be pursuing membership in a prestigious organization, whom upheld the key principles “greater service, greater progress. The first
Saying something has a Machiavellian feeling to it tends to come with a strong negative connotation. However, some communities continue to succeed and flourish today going by the Machiavellian communities standards. My pledging within the fraternity of Pi Kappa Phi has been a blessing and a curse. I absolutely love the guys that I am around for 18 hours of the day. However, the pledging of Pi Kappa Phi has some rules and bylaws that set pledging to be run in a highly Machiavellian format. Our pledge trainers are amazing guys, however; they are not there to make friends. They are there to make sure that we are learning about the history of not only our chapter but of the whole national organization. The pledge trainers would rather be feared than loved during pledging. The Student Creed is eight stanzas long of how a Pi Kappa Phi member should live their life. The White Diamond is a book that has all of our national organization’s history and stories. However, not all of our contracts are written in form. Our Pre-Initiation ceremony was completely verbal and explained everything that the fraternity expected of us along with what we can expect from them. The ends are always justifying the means of pledging. The heartache within pledging that we endure for five to six weeks is all justified because we become chapter members afterwards with a variety of benefits. This is one of the definitions of having a Machiavellian community.
“jiibay or aandizooke” is a poem in the book of native-oriented writings Islands of Decolonial Love by Leanne Betasamosake Simpson. The poem is told through the perspective of a deceased Nishnaabeg native witnessing the desecration of their grave.
If granted the opportunity to become a member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity. I expected to become a better man once finishing the member in take process. Throughout the process I expect to develop many different skills that I can carry throughout life. I would like to become more professional as well as to enhance my networking skills. I expect to become more hands on in different charity events that I’m not familiar with. I would like to improvement my personal status and security, and the meeting of the everyday demands of living.
The first story I would pitch would be the monument opening today at 10 a.m. at the National Infantry Museum. This is black history month and the Buffalo Soldiers were the first all-black infantry. The monument will be unveiled today. Alpha Phi Alpha’s local chapter Delta Iota Lambda is honoring the heroic group of soldiers. Most of the units served between 1866 and 1951. The event is free and open to the public, which will allow them to witness history. Some of the units were stationed at Fort Benning, which is another local aspect. These soldiers did the impossible, so I can speak to the Master of Ceremonies, as well as local historians, military members, and decedents of those brave men who will be at the unveiling. The visuals could start with the American flag as an open. If the
Thanks to John Barban who is the same man who authored Venus Factor. The success of Adonis Golden Ratio is years of his in-depth research and experience about this subject. He was formally trained in Masters Human Biology and Nutrition where he was able to spend 3 years of his time as coach for the ice hockey team. Later on he did graduate research on exercise physiology for the University of Florida. Suffice it to say that Adonis Golden Ratio was develop by somebody who is an expert in the field of fitness training. There are a string of other products that are credited to his name and all of them have develop a great reputation for being centered on delivering results.
During World War 2 the Nazi were killing the Jews and placing them in concentration camps. It was a dreadful time for the Jewish people. In the story of Anne Frank the Frank family, Van Daan family, and Mr.Dussel hid in the secret annex because they were Jewish. The annex was a hidden section in Mr. Frank’s work building. In order to survive their attitudes and how they act plays a huge part in them working together to survive. Peter a shy boy of the Van Daans and Mr. Dussel a dentist are both loyal to their cause for surviving. Their attitudes are very different compared to each other, Peter is shy and quiet, while Mr. Dussel is loud and talkative. -The differences between Peter and Mr. Dussel’s attitudes impacts how everybody works together to survive.
By writing Sisters of the Yam: Black Women and Self-Recovery Bell Hooks gave black women a chance to relate to one another on issues that we are often afraid to express. In PSC 318 we often discussed the stigma of being a “strong black woman” and the negative aspects of that stigma. In my eyes thee is nothing negative about being strong and there is surely nothing negative about being a black woman. But, as a black woman we are looked at providers, caregivers, mentors, mother figures, a shoulder to lean on and much more. Bell Hooks touches on the touchy subject in the black community and that is mental health. Often times as black people we worry about physical health and spiritual health, in the black community our answer to everything and anything going wrong in our lives is to pray about it. Yes, God can heal and help us but Bell Hooks tells us in writing Sisters of the Yam: Black Women and Self-Recovery that we need to take care of our mental health as well as pray. Black women rarely go to therapist to talk about their problems because they are so worried about helping everyone else handle their problems.
The assigned reading was in the Euthyphro. The reading is about Socrates and Euthyphro having a discussion of what piety is. In this paper, I will discuss the moral significance of the question that Socrates proposed. And that is “Is the pious being loved by the gods because it is pious, or is it pious because it is being loved by the gods?”(Prompt). I will start off by giving a brief summary of the reading and then I will move on to the question. In the question I will discuss the moral significance of it and how it affects us in today’s society. Finally, I will end with my conclusion.

People use numbers whenever they do math. Yet, do they know that each number in the number system has its own unique trait? Numbers such as 4 and 9 are considered square numbers because 2 times 2 is 4, and 3 times 3 is 9. There also prime numbers. Prime numbers are numbers that have exactly two divisors. The number one is not included because it only has one divisor, itself. The smallest prime number is two, then three, then five, and so on. This list goes on forever and the largest known primes are called Mersenne primes. A Mersenne prime is written in the form of 2p-1. So far, the largest known Mersenne prime is 225,964,951-1, which is the 42nd Mersenne prime. This prime number has 7,816,230 digits!

The golden ration can occur anywhere. The golden proportion is the ratio of the shorter length to the longer length which equals the ratio of the longer length to the sum of both lengths.
