Archimedes, Euclid and "Circular Reasoning" |
2015-11-15 |
|
Ron pose la question : I have read about Archimedes and his work with sphere in cylinder and cone in cylinder and the volume relationships. Did he or any others also extend this to regular based polygon based regular like pillars, and columns? The ratio of 1/3 to 1 whole holds true with all regular based columns as example: a regular pyramid having a regular hexagon base inside a regular hexagon column of equal height.

Percent as a fractional relationship |
2013-01-14 |
|
Kenneth pose la question : What does the following indicate?
"A percent is another way of expressing the ratio or fractional relationship
of two numbers."
I know what a ratio is, but the term "fractional relationship" confuses me.

Domain and range |
2009-09-11 |
|
Aubrey pose la question : I'm supposed to "state the domain/range of each of the following relations" and it's totally not making sense...
Examples:
{(x,y) : x = square root of y}
{(x,y) : y = x + 1, x is some even integer}
Thanks in advance!!

An equivalence relation |
2008-08-27 |
|
Francesca pose la question : In this problem we are told to find out if the given set is an equivalence relation or not.
{(x,y) such that 4 divides x-y}. What I am confused about is whether or not for instance if I picked (1,5) as a part of the set whether I could put in (5,1) as well or whether that would be wrong. Thanks! Victoria West lui répond. |

- The port of Swan Harbor is 200km away from Merry Town Inlet on a bearing of N50E from Merry Town. A ship leaves Merry Town at 8am and sails N15W at 15 km/h. At the same time, a second ship leaves Swan Harbour on a course of S80W at 20km/hour. How close, to the nearest km, are the two ships at 13:00?

Linear regression |
2001-08-01 |
|
A student and a mother pose la question : My mom is taking a correspondence course in Simple Linear Regression and Correlation Analysis and we've been arguing about the relationship between the correlation -rxy and standard estimate of error-Sy.x. I took statistics last year in high school and I remember something about the Sy.x being proportionate to the r. Are they inversely related, directly related, not related, or can only range from 0 to 1.00? Her book doesn't say very much and I believe they are inversely related. She says they're directly related. Chris Fisher and Penny Nom lui répond. |

V Bailey pose la question : I am a kindergarten teacher and mother of a 6th grader who wants to do a science project on the correlations of body part measurements. We heard this on the radio and it sparked our interest, but now I cannot find any information about it. Examples are: your height is supposed to equal the distance from fingertip to fingertip when your arms are outstretched. Your foot size is supposed to equal the distance from your wrist to your elbow. Please help me find more information on this topic. Penny Nom lui répond. |
