Number of heartbeats in 20 seconds: 20 beats Number of heartbeats in one minute: 60 beats Number of heartbeats in one hour: 3,600 beats Number of heartbeats in one day: 86,400 beats Number of heartbeats in one week: 604,800 beats Number of heartbeats in one month: 2,592,000 beats Number of heartbeats in one year: 31,536,000 | |
1. How many heart beats did you think you would have in one year before extrapolating? Were you close or far off?
I thought that I would have 15,256,200 heart beats in a year. As I was getting farther I started to wonder if I was to low from the actually answer. But when I was finished the answer of heart beats we to low by 16279800 heart beats.
2. Explain what "extrapolating" means to younger children?
Mathematics To estimate (a value of a variable outside a known range) from values within a known range by assuming that the estimated value follows logically from the known values.
3. What are some other things you can extrapolate? Give some example.
You can extrapolate your heart rate like we did in class. You can also extrapolate the heart beats of an animals
