15 ,67, and 84 are numbers that are close to the given numbers to make estimation easier.
What was the first mechanical computer that was designed by Charles Babbage?
Charles Babbage first designed the Difference Engine. His second design was the Analytical Engine which was a programmable machine.
Neither invention was actually built in his lifetime, but the Difference Engine was built to his plans in 1991in the Science Museum in London, England.
How would the world be if Rene Descartes never discovered geometry?
Descartes did not discover geometry - he invented analytical geometry, which enabled mathematicians to use algebra to solve problems in geometry and geometry to solve problems in algebra. The world would be less developed than now, as would be the case with most discoveries.
The decimal shows a repeating pattern. Repeating decimals are rational.
What did Copernicus give to the understanding of astronomy?
Nicolaus Copernicus challenged the geocentric theory and presented the heliocentric theory. The heliocentric system placed the sun at the center of the universe.
