	Factoring expressions		2004-01-03
		A student pose la question : I'm having trouble factoring expressions that aren't monic. I can do things like x2-9x+8, but problems like 12x2+5x-3 have me stumped. I also have a question about factoring out common factors. In a problem like x2-18x+81, wouldn't you divide by 9? But what happens to the x2, is it x2/9? Penny Nom lui répond.

	A new way to measure randomness		2003-12-31
		Stephanie pose la question : Last year, I did a science project in which I asked, "Which shuffles better, an automatic card shuffler or shuffling by hand?" To measure this I decided the "best" shuffler was the one to become random first. Last year, to measure randomness, I numbered cards 1-52 and had the subjects shuffle them until they broke up the rising sequences or reached 10 shuffles. (Usually 10 shuffles came first...) Anyway, I did the same thing with the automatic card shuffler, and, as hypothesized, the automatic card shuffler randomized the deck first. This year, I have decided to continue the project. The problem is, I need a new way to measure randomness without the use of fancy computers or something. I have searched the Internet, I have posted my query on websites based on math, and I have searched the local library. I have found many useful things on the Internet, but none of them can tell me a new way to measure randomness. I cannot do a perfect shuffle, and I am not terribly gifted in the art of using computers. If you have any information (anything will help) or advice, I would be greatly obliged. Andrei Volodin lui répond.
	The trapezoidal rule		2003-12-31
		Prashanth pose la question : I have a set of XY co-ordinates(say 49 points),I want to find the area enclosed by the curve joining them and the axes.I do not have an equation for the curve and I am not able to fit a curve given the points.I use the trapezoidal rule (Y1+Y2/2)*(X2-X1), Is it right? can I do this with any other method? Penny Nom lui répond.
