There were few women scientists during the Scientific Revolution because male-dominated schools did not permit women students and scientific societies barred them from membership.  Many women made contributions, but due to the rigid gender lines of the time, they were often not recognized for their achievements.  Here are a few prominent female scientists: French mathematician Émilie du Châtelet is recognized for translating Isaac Newton’s work from Latin to French.  Provided with a relatively good education for the time, she studied Latin, Italian, and English.  German astronomer Maria Winkelmann worked alongside her husband, and helped to develop astronomical calendars. In 1702, she became the first woman to discover a comet. Maria Sibylla Merian made her name in the field of natural history, particularly as an illustrator.  She conducted scientific expeditions and illustrated the life cycles of insects and plants. Sophia Brahe, a Danish astronomer and scientist, worked alongside her brother in studying lunar eclipses.  Her work helped scientists better understand how planets moved around the sun. Margaret Cavendish was involved in the Scientific Revolution in Britain.  Cavendish used her social rank to attend a meeting of the Royal Society in London in 1667, the first woman to do so and the only one until 1945. A significant number of women also worked as technicians, artists, illustrators, teachers, patent clerks, and botanic researchers during the Scientific Revolution.  QUESTIONS:  1. What challenges did women scientists face in the 16th and 17th centuries? 2. What were some of the strategies they used to overcome these challenges?   Your answer must be in your own words- do not use direct quotes.  Your answer must be a minimum of 75 words.

Suppose Joe works for Austin Electronics. He is considering having Austin purchase some bonds that have a 4.7% nominal or market rate.

What is his estimate of the real realized rate of return?
