first math is about the millmeters to measure what you are making on the car , science is prediction to know how fast your car would be , & history is about how learn how they invented it

Kimberly Vang

First Math is about the millimeteres to measure the car length and science is prediction how fast the car will go , and history is about how cars were invented and made in the old days.

Javier

1/29/2014 01:44:40 am

Because the measurements are required

josh

1/29/2014 01:44:52 am

they are involed by the science building the body , math to mesure, and history for the car you like

alejandro

1/29/2014 01:45:08 am

my car was related by measurements on the wheels and such...
my car was related by science because...
my car was related to history because i made a kinda old fashioned little car.....

Eduardo Matias

1/29/2014 01:45:25 am

it help because you use to show the math of make wheels how to make the car.

Angel Carrillo

1/29/2014 01:46:36 am

its involved in designig a car because the measurement how big you have to make it. science is the prodiction if the car is going to roll. history is how did people get to places with car and the date of the car

misael santiago

1/29/2014 01:46:43 am

! think that math,science,and history are involve in creating a car beacuse there different and many ways of creating a car with every single on of them and also beacuse every subject has there own way of creating a car

Cheemoua Vang

1/29/2014 01:46:54 am

Math,Science and History are involved in designing and creating a car car by, math gives the length,size and tells other parts, science gives what kind of metal and color we need,and history gives the date of the cars and how it changed during time.

lena

1/29/2014 01:47:34 am

in math there is a little thing about building the 3d car. science is thing that u build stuff to know how to do thing

Maria Carrasco

1/29/2014 02:30:45 am

1. Math is involved in creating my car because it has measurements to my car.
2. Science involved in my car because it has an engage and gives out in gas.
3. History is involved in my car because in the pass there was cars.

Jada Naphaivong

1/29/2014 02:32:43 am

It's involved with making a car because you have to use math to measure it out & science to know how fast it'll ride.

Braelen Head

1/29/2014 02:35:11 am

Math is involved since you use measurements and math to make the body and design. Science is involved because you need to incorporate sciences like wind resistance and other sciency stuff. History is needed to NOT copy older designs accidentally(or on purpose). Those are my answers.

emanuel

1/29/2014 02:40:51 am

i think they use science and math to see the lenght of the car and how wide it is

chenouvue link

1/29/2014 02:41:22 am

they all are used to create a car using what they learned form the past to learn what makes a car fast or better than another. science is used to find out how to make a car go or how fast a car will go.

Stephen Martin

1/29/2014 02:41:28 am

I think they use math for cars because the area and radius and stuff. They use science I think because the liquid. Then history probably because they had a car like that and making a new version

ruben

1/29/2014 02:41:53 am

They help you learn how to design your car. It makes your more creative.

jocelyn russell

1/29/2014 02:41:59 am

thet are involved because there is math and science into make the car and history is for the years of it

Alexx

1/29/2014 02:42:05 am

math is in this because of the measurements , science is also about the measurements . history is in it because how old the car is .

linda vargas

1/29/2014 02:42:18 am

math history and science are all involved in making a car because when you measure something then your useing numbers which is math. And your using science because you are creating something that is going to move. and your using history because you aresaving your work from the past.

yenkhailee

1/29/2014 02:42:26 am

how its built,measurement,the year of the car and how old it looks

chris gonmzalez

1/29/2014 02:42:32 am

math is included by using measurements, science is used with the 3d printer, history is used with how old the design is.

BOO (Tabitha)

1/29/2014 02:42:39 am

math is used because u have um use numbers.
sicience is used because of the metal.
the history of how cars of made

Serena Vega

1/29/2014 02:50:15 am

i think they are involved with designing a car by getting papers and following the steps and i also think that because you have to know all the measurements to make the car equally :)

Seng K period 4

1/29/2014 02:50:57 am

Math involves with designing & creating a car because it involves measuring n metric
History involves with designing & creating a car because it has examples of cars that were created a long time ago
Science involves with it because science has to do with math too n the cm n mm of the car revolves around science

kelliona reaves

1/29/2014 02:51:15 am

they are involved because of shape measurement size

Claudia Ayala

1/29/2014 02:56:01 am

How are Math, Science and History the same on creating a car i think because on creating a car u use math in it. Science you use some of the thing are from science. In History i dont know maybe you use the pagers for explaining how too make the car.

Erika Nava

1/29/2014 03:28:26 am

Math is involved because we have to measure the car like the cm.Also science is involved because i'm puting things on the car . Also history because there are years in the car nd some are history.

Ismael Menera p:4

1/29/2014 03:28:51 am

I used math to use the push up for the millimeter, I use science to make the millimeter, and history for because for the cars back then.

nick house

1/29/2014 03:29:33 am

math helps with the measurements. science also helps with measurments. history helps so u can do resaerch on a car

destinee polk

1/29/2014 03:29:49 am

because you need to know the measurements to do the car the right size and follow directions normally

justin yang

1/29/2014 03:31:58 am

math helps the for you to measure. science also help you with the measurements so both of the wheels are in the same measurement. history helps you to know how to draw the car.

kirubel

1/29/2014 04:15:09 am

i think physics and history are the main things to making a car because you need math and science and how were cars made to makinga car

juan gonzalez

1/29/2014 04:49:19 am

we have to use measurments to see how far we put out the lenth of the wheels and windows ect.

adrian puetes

1/29/2014 04:50:56 am

Math,science,history is the reason we have cars because science makes like the engine, math makes the curves and shape of the car, the history helps us by using tools to make the car.

jovonh

1/29/2014 04:52:19 am

math science and history are involved in designing and creating a car because in history if it's a new kind of car it will be place in vehicle history and math and science are to depend on it's size and speed the car will be

Alberto Alonso

1/29/2014 04:53:10 am

They are related because you have too see the number correct and learn whats going to happen to it thats why sience are involed.

Sebastian Garzon Ramirez

1/29/2014 04:53:32 am

Math is useful because you need to know how the measurements for your car.Science is also helpful because you need gravity to make the car go fast.History is also useful because an old car can help you make your car.

sergio alvarez

1/29/2014 04:54:06 am

Math is involved by the exact measurements. Science is involved by the gravitational force in speed and how it will pull the car down faster.History is involved by the old models used to help the creation of the car.

Keyanna Maddox

1/29/2014 04:54:12 am

Math, science, and history are involved in designing and creating a car in many ways. When designing and/or creating a car, math is used by measurements. You have to know what measurement one side of the car is and make sure that it is equal to the other side. Science is used because you have to know what the purpose the of the object is. History is used because you have know the history of what the object is and where the object originated from.

alex barrios @ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

1/29/2014 04:55:28 am

The car project has a lot of other thing that involve math because we would measure how big the car would be and science we would test out how fast it would go and history you can set a record about how fast it would go and my car would be a dodge challenger or a tuner

Elisa Garcia

1/29/2014 05:16:12 am

Math,science,and historty are involed in dedsigning a car math in incolved because you had to measure,science s involved because of gravity and history beacuse your knowleged of want you kmow about cars.

David Hernanadez

1/29/2014 05:16:54 am

math is involved by the measure ments.Science is involved by the grvity. History is involved by like if you make a old car that is involved.
