An example of a finite amount of time is having a short time frame to complete a task.
Name the number system having only one digit?
binary system
Why do digital computer use binary number system?
Binary numbers have only 2 digits, 0 and 1. Binary came from a need to represent information based in magnetics that only offer an "on" or "off" state. Decimal numbers have 10 digits, 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. Decimal numbers came about from humans having 10 fingers to count with. Once they reach 10, they start reusing fingers (digits). When humans count to 3, they count to their 3rd digit. Here's how to count to 3 in binary, which only has 2 digits: 01,10,11 Here's counting to 7 in decimal: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 Here's counting to 7 in binary: 001,010,011,100,101,110,111 All of the mathematics done in decimal can be done in binary. No matter how fancy computers get, the bottom line is they have to store and manipulate information at a physical level, something physical must store all of that information. In computers, that physical storage is magnetic. All information is stored and manipulated at the lowest level as a combination of large binary values, large combinations of "on" and "off". Scientists are inventing new ways to store information in computers, so perhaps in time computer storage won't be limited to binary values.
What are the kinds of sets in college algebra?
Kinds of sets are: infinite set-the set continues on for infinity.There may not be an infinite amount of a thing you wear, it is limited to numbers. finite set-it has finite (countable) number of elements, it has unlimited numbers. numerical set-a set having only numbers as its elements, set prime numbers (2,3,5,7,11,13,17..) equal set-two sets are equal if they have precisely the same numbers. null set-its is a set with no elements or numbers. equivalent set-sets with the same numbers of members . intersecting sets-sets with some members in common. subsets-sets contained within others are subset.
