The extended real number system 2009-06-30
Justin pose la question :
Hi again, thanks a lot for answering my previous question! I was also just wondering again if the extended real number system has a potential or actual infinity because it includes positive infinity as a point that exists at the end of it?

All the Best,

Justin

Designing a shelf 2009-06-28
Bjorn pose la question :
I'm putting up a shelf and thought I'd be nice and cut the sharp and pointy corners off. I want to the cut to be at a 45 degree angle, but I also want the exposed edge to be the same length as from the wall to the beginning of the cut -- so the end of shelf will look like the first two sides of an octagon. I've managed to construct the solution, but I haven't been able to calculate it...
Please help!

Twelve golfers 2009-06-26
Fred pose la question :
Hello- There are twelve golfers in 3 foursomes for three days. Is there a combination of four man foursomes that allow for no duplicates? In other words, is there a formula to insure the greatest amount of variety in the foursomes. Looking at it math like you have 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12 grouped into four numbers each for three days. So if your have the first day 1,2,3,4 in one group, 5,6,7,8 in the second and 9,10,11,12 in the third what can you do for the next two days to have the fewest duplicates or have the greatest variety in the foursomes? Thanks

Investing in multiple accounts 2009-06-26
Kenneth pose la question :
Hello:

If an investor has $1000.00 to invest in multiple accounts, and he wants a total return of 4%, is there one calculation that can be used to determine what these amounts could be even though there may be numerous amounts used as answers for most of the following examples?

For example,
Invest $1000.00 @ 2% and 5% for total return of 4%.
Invest $1000.00 @ 2%, 3% and 5% for total return of 4%.
Invest $1000.00 @ 2%, 3%, and 5% for total return of 4%.
Invest $1000.00 @ 2%, 3%, 4% and 5% for total return of 4%.
etc.
