Mathematicians
Often, to completely understand the importance of a mathematical theory, it's essential to know about the person who developed it. This category is where all questions about historically significant mathematicians should be asked.

What does reduce mean in mathematical terms?
it mean to subtract the number or add the number. i am a professor so i know what u r talking about so if this works just leave a comment. No bad ones.

What is the use of mensuration in your daily life?
Mensuration literally means 'to measure.' It is used in measuring geometric figures, area, length and volume. It is also used to measure things such as acceleration, speed and velocity.
How is mensuration used in our daily lives?
• In cooking, we use measurements for volume when following recipe books. Tools such as measuring jugs may be used to determine volumes. When making a cake for example we may need tins of a specific width and length for a particular recipe. We may also need to weight out the weight of the dry ingredients using a measuring scale.
• Before leaving the door, we may check the weather forecast. The temperatures measured using thermometers will help determine what we choose to wear.
• When planning a car journey, we may look at a map to find out the quickest way to reach a particular distance. We may look at how to cut down the number of miles we have to travel by taking short cuts. The speed you travel at can also be measured and this may contribute to the length of your journey if you travel faster.
• Calling into the coffee shop for your morning fix will also see you faced with amensuration dilemma. The size of cup you choose will present you with a different volume of liquid.

What is pascal law and its application?
Pascal's law (pressure exerted anywhere in a confined incompressible fluid is transmitted equally in all directions throughout the fluid such that the pressure variations (initial differences) remain the same)... and one common application would be a hydraulic lift (such as those used in garages to raise cars off the ground for inspection).
actually 2n-3 is not an equation so there's no answer but if you will make into an equation it becomes 2n-3=o finding the value of n,2n-3=0,2n=3,n=3/2
Why wasn't Fermats last theorem written on paper?
But it was. That is why we know about it. If you mean why the PROOF was not written- Fermat wrote that he had found a wonderful proof for the theorem, but unfortunately the margin was too small to contain it.
This is why the theorem became so famous- being understandable by even a schoolchild, but at the same time so hard to prove that even the best mathematicians had to surrender, with a simple proof seemingly being existent that just nobody except Fermat could find.
The theorem has since been proven but the proof uses math tools that are very advanced and were not available in Fermat's life-time.
Why did Blaise Pascal create the Pascal Triangle?
Pascal did not create the Pascal Triangle: mathematicians had studied it long before him (about 1800 years!). In the Western world, it is named after him because of his work in developing its uses.
5 is odd because you cannot divide it by 2 and get a whole integer number; for example 4 is even since 4/2 = 2; but 5 is odd since 5/2 = 2.5
What belief about nature did Francis Bacon Rene descartes share?
reliogious faith and meditation were the keys to studying nature.
It very hard to say, as they can be judged by painting alone.
