Today you will need - Notebook - Folder Hali A Comparing Decimals To determine which of two decimals is greater, you can compare the digits in each place-value position, or you can use a number line. Which is greater, 7.4 or 7.63? Method 1 Use place value 7.4 Line up the decimal points 7.63 Starting at the left, compare the digits in each place-value position. The digits in the tenths place are not the same. Since 6 tenths > 4 tenths, 7.63 > 7.4 Which is greater, 7.4 or 7.63? Method 2 Use a number line. Graph each decimal on a number line and compare. 7.4 7.63 7.0 7.1 7.2 7.3 7.4 7.5 7.6 7.7 7.8 7.9 8.0 On a number line, numbers to the right are greater than numbers to the left. 7.63 is to the right of 7.4, so 7.63 > 7.4 Which is larger? 63 hundredths 69 hundredths Erase between the two numbers to reveal the .63 .69 pull < answer. Compare. Drag and drop the symbol <, >, or = for each pair of decimals. 1. 7.23 > 7.2 > 2. 0.9 = 0.900 = 3. 0.622 > 0.62 < 4. 5.307 < 5.73 How do we order decimal numbers?

  • Fair Ball! Why Adjustments Are Needed
    © Copyright, Princeton University Press. No part of this book may be distributed, posted, or reproduced in any form by digital or mechanical means without prior written permission of the publisher. CHAPTER 1 Fair Ball! Why Adjustments Are Needed King Arthur’s quest for it in the Middle Ages became a large part of his legend. Monty Python and Indiana Jones launched their searches in popular 1974 and 1989 movies. The mythic quest for the Holy Grail, the name given in Western tradition to the chal- ice used by Jesus Christ at his Passover meal the night before his death, is now often a metaphor for a quintessential search. In the illustrious history of baseball, the “holy grail” is a ranking of each player’s overall value on the baseball diamond. Because player skills are multifaceted, it is not clear that such a ranking is possible. In comparing two players, you see that one hits home runs much better, whereas the other gets on base more often, is faster on the base paths, and is a better fielder. So which player should rank higher? In Baseball’s All-Time Best Hitters, I identified which players were best at getting a hit in a given at-bat, calling them the best hitters. Many reviewers either disapproved of or failed to note my definition of “best hitter.” Although frequently used in base- ball writings, the terms “good hitter” or best hitter are rarely defined. In a July 1997 Sports Illustrated article, Tom Verducci called Tony Gwynn “the best hitter since Ted Williams” while considering only batting average.

  • A Geographical Look at Home Runs
    Academic Forum 24 2006-07 A Geographical Look at Home Runs Fred Worth, Ph.D. Professor of Mathematics and Computer Science Abstract - In this paper, we will look at career home runs for major league baseball players based on the state in which they were born. Major league baseball is known for its interesting statistics. There are multitudes of numbers and multitudes of ways of looking at the numbers. For some now-forgotten reason, I once started looking at home runs by the state of birth of the home run hitter. This chart gives home runs by state (including the District of Columbia). Consider the chart below, where “n” denotes the number of players born in that state who have hit at least one major league home run. [Note: All data comes from Lee Sinin's Sabermetric Baseball Encyclopedia .] HRs n HRs n HRs n Alabama 7985 153 Kentucky 2851 100 North Dakota 284 7 Alaska 71 5 Louisiana 4057 97 Ohio 10682 369 Arizona 876 32 Maine 262 23 Oklahoma 5090 105 Arkansas 3252 61 Maryland 4729 101 Oregon 2293 46 California 41790 894 Massachusetts 4314 217 Pennsylvania 13666 493 Colorado 414 27 Michigan 5057 149 Rhode Island 1093 30 Connecticut 1999 76 Minnesota 2505 62 South Carolina 3496 88 D.C. 600 35 Mississippi 3256 84 South Dakota 122 10 Delaware 563 18 Missouri 6882 234 Tennessee 3045 102 Florida 8984 163 Montana 198 9 Texas 11238 303 Georgia 5672 139 Nebraska 1137 46 Utah 170 11 Hawaii 202 15 Nevada 200 8 Vermont 540 17 Idaho 712 11 New Hampshire 301 20 Virginia 2624 95 Illinois 11504 393 New Jersey 3830 146 Washington 2952 68 Indiana 3601 129 New Mexico 664 9 West Virginia 1803 50 Iowa 1611 75 New York 13008 404 Wisconsin 2534 83 Kansas 1756 66 North Carolina 3507 168 Wyoming 244 6 Not surprisingly, California has both the most home runs and the most 45000 home run hitters.

To learn what motivates Director of Sales Training and Development Loren Smith to pursue “Perfect Practice,” read his account below of his life-changing conversation with baseball legend Tony Gwynn of the San Diego Padres. PERFECT PRACTICE Having been born and raised in San Diego, California, I was able to grow up watching one individual start, succeed and finish his professional career in major league baseball. Every minute was truly an honor to witness. Tony Gwynn, also known as Mr. Padre, made his first major league baseball appearance July 19, 1982, playing against the Philadelphia Phillies. I was one of 33,000 + fans in the stands who was able to see this young, promising player gather his first hit of what would become 3,141 total hits over a 20-year career. Mr. Gwynn went on to achieve numerous records, milestones and goals over his career.
