The area of a lot 2004-09-29
Deb pose la question :
I am trying to figure out how many square feet are in a piece of property. Start at Point A-then go 140 feet north-then 100 feet due east-then 300 feet at an angle southeast so that connecting to point A would be a straight line (right angle to first line north.)

Cubic yards of concrete 2004-09-29
Tanya pose la question :
We are starting up a new business and for the business we will be required to order concrete for various shapes. Right now we have a job that requires a concrete slab that a decagon it is 140-3/4" from flat side to flat side, 74" from point to center and each flat side is 46" The pad should be 4" thick with 12"x12" continuous footing.

A palindrome question 2004-09-28
Lilly pose la question :
12, 21, 13, and 31 are the only double-digit numbers whose squares are the palindromes of the squares of the palindromes of double-digit numbers. I was wondering why it works for these numbers, and if only these numbers work this way.

A parallelepiped 2004-09-25
Aman pose la question :
" If OA, OB, and OC are three edges of a parallelepiped where O is (0,0,0), A is (2,4,-2), B is (3,6,1), and C is (4,0,-1), find the coordinates of the other vertices of the parallelepiped.)"

The last digit of 2^28 2004-09-25
A student pose la question :
I am currently enrolled in a math reasoning class and a math question I have to answer is determine the units digit in 3 28power. When I set up a table and keep cubing the numbers, I find a pattern with the last digits of the numbers that follow 1,3,9,7. My calculator gets to about the 19th power, and then I get an error. If I continued the pattern, would the units digit then be the last digit of 3 28th power, which would be a 7? Please let me know if I am solving this correctly and what a unit's digit actually is.

Rational expressions 2004-09-24
A student pose la question :
In general, I understand rational expressions except when it comes to solving problems such as:

x+y/2x-y - 2x/y-2x or m-4/3m-4 + 3m+2/4-3m

I am confounded by the issue of having to find a common denominator. For example, if I tried to solve these problems by multiplying both denominators they would still be uncommon.

Supplementary angles 2004-09-23
Rosemary pose la question :
Is the term supplementary angles only applicable to 2 angles (ie. a pair of angles) or can it be used when talking about 3 or more angles that add to make 180 degrees?
Penny Nom lui répond.
Incremental variance 2004-09-23
Carlos pose la question :
I must keep statistical data (mean and variance) in 3 granularity levels depending on the age of the data (daily for older than 1 year, hourly for older than 1 month and quarter-hour for older than 1 day). How can I calculate the resulting variance from a set of variances previously calculated supposing I have the count and mean for each member of the set?
Andrei Volodin and Penny Nom lui répond.
The volume of a pile of mulch 2004-09-22
Sam pose la question :
Is there a formula to determine the cubic feet of something in a pile. IE- I need to determine the cubic feet of a pile of mulch. The pile comes to a peak, so the length and width decrease as the pile increases.
Penny Nom lui répond.
