	Markup and discount to get a sale price		2013-03-02
		Warren pose la question : If you are an ardent shopper you will be aware of the discount (% decrease) marketing strategy to produce the sale price. I began to wonder just how much mark-up (% increase) was added initially to an item in order to deliver the discounted sale price. It was simple to construct a formula to convert one to the other. For example a 30% (mark down) decrease in price required a 42.86% (mark up) to increase the price initially to Tag price. However when I started apply the formulae to a number of circumstances I noticed some very interesting circumstances associated with this relationship For example a 99.999999% decrease is numerically equal to a 9,999,999,925% increase (huge ratio difference) while conversely a 0.1% decrease is numerically equal to a 0.10010010% increase (Infinitesimally small ratio difference) so the patterns appears logarithmic not linear. However what really caught my attention was this pattern See http://www.ozsmart.com/doc/percentage.htm My questions is why does the decline in the ratio of increases in required mark up (%) price peak at 50 and 51% precisely and then expand again as the percentage move higher Any explanation would be appreciated Harley Weston lui répond.

	Price increases and decreases		2009-09-02
		craig pose la question : I work for an industry that bases it price increases and decreases on commodity pricing - Customer get confused on how/why we calculated new prices due to movement in the market - Price go up x% for every $10 of movement in the market - For this example- Movement went down by $30 and it is 2% for every $10 - so price decrease was 6%. Customer's price is currently $100. We say - $100/1.06= new price of $94.3 Customer says - $100*.94= new price of $94. They don't understand that if board went back up $30 which would be 6% increase, they wouldn't be back at $100 if they multiplied on the price decrease. $94*1.06=$99.64 vs. $94.3*1.06=$100 (Back to the original price) What is the best way to explain to customer besides using this example? Any help or info is appreciated. Craig 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.

	Determinants		2008-05-02
		Henry pose la question : I have a question about solving 3x3 matrices. The traditional way, or at least the way I've been taught, is that if one has a 3x3 matrix such as: [ a b c ] [ d e f ] [ g h i ] one solves it according to this formula: [ei - hf) - (bi - hc) + (bf - ec) = determinant. According to a book I'm now studying to prepare for the California CSET exam, there is another, easier, way to solve it: [ a b c ] [ a b ] [ d e f ] [ d e ] [ g h i ] [ g h ] In other words, one repeats the first two rows of the matrix and adds them to the right. At this point, the determinant is calculated thus: (aei) +(bfg) + (cdh) - (gec) - (hfa) - (idb). Is this, in fact, correct? Harley Weston lui répond.

	Matrix		2001-11-21
		Hoda pose la question : I have a question about matrix multiplication; well, actually, matrix division. I am assuming that matrices are divided the same as they are multiplied; that is, row by column. But what happens if you have to divide by zero? How does this affect the resulting matrix? Patrick Maidorn and Penny Nom lui répond.
	Conformable matrices		2001-08-05
		Wayne pose la question : Can someone explain the concept of conformable matrices in a way that is easy to understand ? One definition says to multiply matrices rows and columns must conform, ie, 5 x 3 matrix times a 3 x 5 matrix. In the next example, however a 8 x 1 matrix and a 8 x 3 matrix are said to be conformable! Steve Kirkland lui répond.

	Oil revenue		2001-04-21
		Brian pose la question : Suppose that t months from now an oil well will be producing crude oil at the rate of r(t), not a constant, barrels per month and that the price of crude oil will be p(t), not a constant, dollars per barrel. Assume that the oil is sold as soon as it is extracted from the ground. Find an expression for the total revenue from the oil well, R(t). A certain oil well that currently yields 400 barrels of crude oil a month will run dry in 2 years. The price of crude oil is currently $18 per barrel and is expected to rise at a constant rate of 3 cents per barrel per month. What will be the total revenue from this well? {Hint: Model the degraded production rate with the equation: r(t) = (A-Bt)e0.04t} Harley Weston lui répond.

	Taxis in Chicago		2000-03-27
		A high school studenthigh school student pose la question : Suppose that taxis pick up and deliver passengers in Chicago, which is divided into three zones. Records kept by the drivers show that of the passengers picked up in Zone 1, 50% are taken to a destination in Zone 1, 40% to Zone 2, and 10% to Zone 3. OF the passengers picked up in Zone 2, 40% go to Zone 1, 30% to Zone 2, and 30% to Zone 3. Of the passengers picked up in Zone 3, 20% go to Zone 1, 60% to Zone 2 and 20% to Zone 3. Suppose that at the beginning of the day, 600 of the taxis are in Zone 1, 100 in Zone 2, and 300 in Zone 3. What is the distribution of taxis in the various zones after all have had two riders?
