	The Praxis II test		2002-07-09
		A student pose la question : I am taking the Praxis II test and I can't seem to answer certain styles of questions. Please help!!!!!! In a class of 29 children, each of 20 children has a dog and each of 15 has a cat. How many of the children have both a dog and a cat? If there are exactly 5 times as many children as adults at a show, which of the following CANNOT be the number of people at the show? a. 102 b. 80 c. 36 d. 30 In order to estimate the population of snails in a certain woodland, a biologist captured and marked 84 snails there were then released back into the woodland. Fifteen days later the biologist captured 90 snails from the woodland, 12 of which bore the markings of the previously captured snails. If all of the marked snails were still active in the woodland when the second group of snails were captured, what should the biologist estimate the snail population to be based on the probabilities suggested by this experiment? a. 630 b. 1,010 c. 1040 d. 1080. Paul Betts lui répond.
	A polygon inscribed within an ellipse - Part 2		2002-07-08
		Steven pose la question : I recently sought your advice about a problem that I have been working on for eight years or so concerning a polygon inscribed within an ellipse. I think that I may have confused matters by the way in which I put the question and hope that the enclosed diagram will clear matters up. In the ellipse below I have drawn three chords inscribed within one quadrant ( this would pertain to a twelve sided figure within the whole ellipse). These chords are exactly the same length as each other, for example if the major axis of the ellipse was 360 and the minor axis 240 I have worked out that a twelve sided figure would have sides of 78.2487. However I worked this out empirically with a method that could only be described as gruelling I would be most grateful if you could tell me of a method that would work for any ellipse and any number of sides. Chris Fisher lui répond.
	The base 10 multipliction table		2002-07-07
		A student pose la question : These are two questions from Math for Elementary Teachers and they have me stumped. You have two coins that are worth 30 cents. One of the coins is not a nickel. What are the two coins? The product of the diagonals of any 2x2 matrix in the base 10 multiplication table are equal. Why? Penny Nom lui répond.
	A box that holds 22.4 liters		2002-07-07
		Jon pose la question : How do I find the measurements required to make a box that holds 22.4 liters of something? Penny Nom lui répond.
	Equivalence relations on a set of cardinality n		2002-07-06
		Siddhartha pose la question : what is the no. of equivalence and transitive relations on a set of cardinality n? Penny Nom lui répond.
	An equalateral polygon inscribed within an ellipse		2002-06-30
		Steven pose la question : How would you calculate the length of one of the sides of an equalateral polygon (of n sides) inscribed within an ellipse ( of any eccentricity ) where all of the vertices exactly touch the perimeter of the ellipse? I know that when the eccentricity is zero ( i.e a circle ) the formula: r * (sin(180/n) * 2) will suffice. But what about when the eccentricity is greater than zero? Chris Fisher lui répond.
	Math test		2002-06-28
		Dustin pose la question : I have a really important placement test to take in 2 weeks. I need to have a strong comprehension of algebra and I have't taken a math class in about for years. I'm 24 and am going back to school. I want to get ahead and into math 96, and must pass this test to do that. Do you know of a book or a wab site that can teach me a few formulas that will give me the edge I need. If I have the right text for the job i'll study day and night to pass. Leeanne Boehm lui répond.
