Social security numbers |
2007-02-27 |
|
Tish pose la question :
Social Security numbers are in the form ###-##-####, where each symbol represents a number 0-9, how many are possible with this format? Will we ever run out of Social Security numbers?
(This is one question with two parts, I saw some examples but I am still confused because if there are 1 million possibilities then how have we been able to issue out numbers to over 280 US citizens?) (For the second part a yes or no answer is sufficient)

The lateral area of a cone |

|
Michael pose la question :
Ive seen the other question about surface areas. I still don't understand the lateral area. In my math book, it has (pi * r * L) as the equation, r = radius and L = height of the cone. This is 8th grade math. Thanks.

Who won the backstroke? |
2007-02-26 |

Timothy pose la question :
Three girls held a series of swimming races among themselves. They decided to award a positive whole number of points for finishing first, second and third, where the number of points for first was more than the number for second, which was more than the number for third. The same number of points was awarded for the place in each race. There were no ties.
The first race was breaststroke. Altogether Sarah accumulated 20 points, Michelle 10 points and Catherine 9 points. If Sarah did not win the backstroke race, who did win the backstroke?

Finding domains using number lines |
2007-02-25 |
|
Saher pose la question :
Discuss domain of the function, f(x)= (x+1)(x-2) / (x+3), with the entire thing under a square root.
I'm being taught how to find the domain using the number line. Our teacher says that there are 5-6 choices, but I get stuck somewhere around 2, and I don't know how to give my answers after I've obtained the first one, which seems to be (3, infinity). HELP!! Thank you
