Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Mathematics(IOSR-JM) - Year 2018, Vol 14, Issue 2
Abstract
The Study was carried out to investigate the effect of school location on mathematics students’ performance in Gaya Zonal Education Area of Kano State, Nigeria. The expost facto design was used. A systematic random sampling was employed to select the 284 students’ out of a population of 669 students. Three (3) hypotheses were tested to determine the effect of school location on mathematics students’ performance especially between urban and rural students’, between urban and rural girls as well as between urban and rural boys. Significance difference was found in favour urban students irrespective sex. It was recommended that rural schools should be provided with basic human and physical facilities for better results.

Three-Step Method For Finding Root of Non-Linear Equations
In this paper, we proposed a three step method for approximating roots of non-linear equations. This method has three evaluations of function and first derivative which is modified from McDougall and Wotherspoon [1]. Num...
