    Integral calculus is the study of mathematical integration dealing with integrals. These integrals‚ also known as area under the curve‚ are used to determine the following: areas‚ volumes‚ and lengths. There are a multitude of areas of real-world mathematics to which integral calculus is used. Integration is most often applied in physics‚ biology‚ and even chemistry. Integration is applied to physics in many situations. One important situation is finding the moment of inertia. The moment of inertia

    so large‚ that a purely analytical solution to the equations is not tractable. It is in these complex systems where computer simulations and numerical methods are useful. The techniques for solving differential equations based on numerical approximations were developed before programmable computers existed. During World War II‚ it was common to find rooms of people (usually women) working on mechanical calculators to numerically solve systems of differential equations for military calculations

    My purpose in writing this is to argue for the existence of an objective morality based entirely on rational and scientific reasoning. By "objective morality" I do not simply mean that morality exists in the sense that various societies consider various actions to be immoral. What I mean is that certain actions are inherently right or wrong regardless of what any society thinks about them. In other words‚ I mean that there is an "objective morality" which exists independently of human beliefs and

    Calculus  is the mathematical study of change‚[1] in the same way that geometry is the study of shape and algebra is the study of operations and their application to solving equations. It has two major branches‚ differential calculus (concerning rates of change and slopes of curves)‚ and integralcalculus (concerning accumulation of quantities and the areas under curves); these two branches are related to each other by the fundamental theorem of calculus. Both branches make use of the fundamental

    3. Differences between APV and option valuation Valuing MW Acquisition by using APV method assumes in practice that exploiting of all MW’s reserves is certain and happens right after the acquisition. In other words‚ the APV method excludes the flexibility in future decision making. In this case‚ Apache has both an option to defer the exploiting of reserves into future and Apache may also choose not to exploit the MW reserves at all. As some of MW’s reserves are actually real options‚ the APV valuation
