In this essay the conic sections in taxicab geometry will be researched. The area of mathematics used is geometry. I have chosen this topic because it seemed interesting to me. I have never heard for this topic before, but then our math teacher presented us mathematic web page and taxicab geometry was one of the topics discussed there. I looked at the topic before and it encounter problems, which seemed interesting to explore. I started with a basic example, just to compare Euclidean and taxicab
There are multiple ways that conic sections are used in real-world applications. Parabolas, ellipses, circles, and hyperbolas all play a role in today’s society. An example of parabolas in the real-world are building archways. Building archways are curved structures that helped stabilize buildings and are fascinating to look at. When you look at an archway, you will find that archways are negative parabolas because it looks like an up-side down “U”. The keystone, or top of an arch, is the vertex
Babies that are delivered by cesarean section are not being put skin-to-skin with their mothers following delivery, despite the increasing amount of evidence that supports this practice. The population affected by this problem is all mother/baby couplets being delivered by cesarean section, whether scheduled or non-scheduled, in the Family Birth Center at this facility. Newborn delivered by cesarean are brought to the nursery where they are weighed, vital signs are taken, measurements are done
From a clinical perspective a cesarean delivery (Cesarean section or “C-section”) is the delivery of the baby through an incision in the abdomen and through an incision in the uterus. However, from a maternal perspective, a cesarean is not just a routine medical procedure, it is the emotional, long-anticipated arrival of an infant. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, almost 1/3 of all babies born in the United States are delivered surgically, making cesareans one of most
Reducing the Primary Cesarean Section Rate in Nulliparous Women: A Quality Improvement Project Julie A. Javernick, CNM, MSN Submitted to Drs. Joan Nelson and Kathy Shaw of the University of Colorado College of Nursing in partial fulfillment of the requirements for NUDO 7018 Introduction Background Healthy childbirth is defined as a safe, natural process that rarely requires medical intervention (Goer & Romano, 2012). The medical model of care, however, often includes interventions that
One of the most heavily performed surgeries on pregnant women is the caesarean section, also known as c-section, however many women are unaware of the complications, risks, and benefits to such an intense procedure. Most don’t even know that it is considered a major surgery. Many women are having caesarean sections in today’s society due to health risks to the mother and child and the mother’s personal choices, the number of surgeries performed yearly have been increasing steadily. We will explore
I chose to focus on the rent voucher/section 8 housing, because it is very common in my town and the surrounding towns I grew up in. Section 8 housing was created to help those who could afford housing, particularly for those who are low-income. Voucher housing better known as section 8 housing “allows low-income people to live in a private-market housing unit, the landlord, who is in a contract with the government, is not allowed to take anymore than 30% of your income for rent” (Palen, 255). “In
arise, such as a baby who is positioned incorrectly, preeclampsia, or toxemia. Therefore, a cesarean delivery is the safest way. Most believe that subsequent pregnancies require subsequent C-sections. Today, many mothers are opting for VBACs aka vaginal birth after C-sections. A C-Section, or Cesarean Section, is a major surgery to deliver a baby who may suffer from complications or could be breech. They may also be done in response to the mother and the complications that she may have. It is done
Description Due to cesarean section, it is proven that c-section birth causes infants to be at greater risk of developing a host of illnesses such as, asthma, type 1 diabetes, as they progress and grow older; As Australia has one of the highest c-section rates in the world with now at 32% of the population having a cesarean birth (s. McCulloch, 2018). Indigenous mothers are more likely to experience more long-term issues and even perinatal death compared to the 0.7% of non-aboriginal and non-Torres
Introduction Section 8 housing was the first subsidized tenant-based housing program in the U.S. The program was established under the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974. It differed from the known public housing program by allowing recipients to obtain housing from the private market as opposed to government owned housing. Later after merging two aspects of the section 8, certificates and vouchers, section 8 housing program became known as the Housing Choice Voucher program (HCV). Housing
