Eleven guys on a fishing trip 2014-05-13
Mark pose la question :
Eleven guys are going on a fishing trip and want to rotate so everyone fishes with the other guys with the fewest number of repeats. They want to fish in groups of two with one fishing alone for three and a half days so will rotate seven times. Is there a combination that works and what is it?

A cone of vision 2014-04-29
David pose la question :
It is known that a fish in water looking up has a 97 degree "cone" of vision that sees "through" the surface of the water. If a fish lies 4 inches below the surface, the cone forms a window (circle) smaller than if a fish lies 8 inches below the surface. What is the ratio of inches of depth to the radius of the circle on the surface that is its visual window?

Scheduling a 12 person fishing 2013-07-09
Don pose la question :
Greetings Math Central!
I searched the index, but could not find a similar quandary.
Here's my predicament:
I am seeking help in scheduling a 12 person fishing outing.
We have four boats.
I would like to schedule three fishermen to a boat.
We fish 2 1/2 days, split into morning and afternoon sessions.
Thursday afternoon, Friday morning, Friday afternoon, Saturday morning, and Saturday afternoon
We switch boats after lunch, with each fisherman moving to a different boat, with different partners.
I would like to have each fisherman fish with as many others in the group as possible, with a minimum of partner duplication.
I would like to have each fisherman fish in all of the four different boats over the course of the trip at least once.

Would you please suggest a boat / fishing partner schedule that fits my parameters as closely as possible.

Thank you!

Don

At the beginning of a study 24 fish are caught, tagged, and released back into a large pond containing fish. A few days later, 19 fish are caught from the pond and three of them have tags.

Constructing a cone 2004-09-07

I am trying to build crayfish traps; one of the components is a cone shaped entry section.

The cone I want to make would be 12" in diameter at the base and 12" in height, from base to peak.
