	A geometric series		2018-03-13
		nathi pose la question : Hi I am really struggling with this question please help !!!! a pohutukawa tree is 86 centimetres when it is planted. in the first year after it is planted , the tree grows 42 centimetres in height.Each year the tree grows in height by 95% of the growth of the previous year. assume that the growth in height of the pohutukawa tree can be modelled by a geometric sequence. A)find the height of the tree 5 years after it is planted and figure out the maximum height the pohutukawa tree is expected to reach in centimetres. The maximum height part is not answered.

	The number of points on a line is equivalent to that of a surface		2011-03-24
		Gary pose la question : I I was reading about how the number of points on a line is equivalent to that of a surface. This was done by taking any point on a line then taking alternating digits and making them as points on an x and y axis therefore points on a surface.The problem is as i see it if you just take a line then hold it over a surface you have just put the points on the line in a one to one correspondence with the points directly under it on the surface.Now you have all the rest of the surface which cannot be mapped onto the line since it is already used up.What am i missing? Penny Nom lui répond.

	Cardinality of infinite sets		2009-09-01
		Brian pose la question : I was reading an answer to a question on your site regarding infinite sets (http://mathcentral.uregina.ca/QQ/database/QQ.09.01/carlos1.html), and I think they may have got the answer wrong. I his example, he claims that the set of real numbers BETWEEN 0 AND 1 is larger than the set of positive integers. Please correct me if I am wrong, but I believe those two sets are -- pardon the expression -- equally infinite. For any integer, there is a corresponding real number between 0 and 1, and vice versa. For instance, using the decimal as a "mirror", you can create a mirror image of any real number between 0 and 1 as an integer (i.e. 0.1234 gets mirrored as the integer 4321 -- I could write it out algebraically, if you want, but you get my point) Am I wrong? Thanks, Brian Victoria West lui répond.

	Torricelli's trumpet		2009-07-29
		Gary pose la question : I was reading about torricelli's trumpet which is described by the equation1/x which is then rotated around the x axis which results in a figure which looks like a trumpet. Now in order to find the volume the integral 1/x^2 dx is used which diverges when integrated so the volume is finite.However if you integrate 1/x dx which is the formula on the plane the answer diverges. Now if you took an infinite area then rotated it around the x axis shouldn't you get an infinite volume? Notice the area I am talking about is under the line 1/x not the surface area of the trumpet which is what the painters paradox is about What am I missing? Thanks Robert Dawson lui répond.

	0.151515...=15/99		2008-09-08
		Emma pose la question : This week, my Algebra teacher told us about the pattern between infinitely repeating decimals and their corresponding fractions.

	Countable and uncountable sets		2007-07-24
		Mac pose la question : Hi, i tried to read few webpages related to the countably infinite and uncountable sets. Even i read few questions from this forum. But i am not convinced with this explanation. If you have any good book that explains this in layman term, please redirect me to that. 1) Can you please explain what is the difference between these too ? 2) How could you say set of Natural number and set of even numbers are countably infinite ? N={1,2,3,...} and Even= {2,4,6,...} When an element in the even set is some 2n, we will map it to 'n'.So now we have a bigger number(2n) right ? Sorry, i didn't understand that. ...

	X.9999... and X+1		2003-08-23
		David pose la question : I have read your answers to the questions on rational numbers, esp. 6.9999... = ? and still have a question: The simple algebraic stunt of converting repeating decimals to rational numbers seems to work for all numbers except X.999999.... where X is any integer. The fact that the method yields the integer X+1 in each case seems to violate the completeness axiom of the real numbers, namely that there is no space on the number line which does not have an number and conversely that every geometric point on the number line is associated with a unique real number. In the case of 3.999... for example, it seems that both the number 4 and the number 3.9999.... occupy the same point on the number line. How is this possible??? Penny Nom lui répond.

	Repeating decimals		2003-01-08
		A student pose la question : If k=.9repeating, and 10k=9.9repeating then 10k-k=9k, k=1 therefore .9repeating=1 and 1/3=.3repeating 3x1/3=.3repeatingx3, 3/3=.9repeating, therefore 1=.9repeating It would seem to me that .9repeating approaches one but never quite makes it. Can you clarify? Penny Nom lui répond.
