Fay pose la question : Given math homework problem of: Gary and Larry given 2 numbers and told to add together. Gary subtracted and got 14. Larry multiplied and got 799. I tried substitution:
X-Y=14 and X x Y=799
X= Y+14
(Y+14) Y=799 and here I'm stuck at Y squared+14 Y= 799
using substitution I got 47x17=799 but not 14b when subtracted. HELP????? Penny Nom lui répond. |

Gilligan pose la question : The volume V of a right circular cone is V = (1/3)pi(r^2)(h). If the height is TWICE the radius, express the volume V as a function of r.

Degree |
2006-02-09 |
|
Jessica pose la question : I am a 9th grade home school student and have started doing degrees of terms in my math book. The following is some examples they give:
25a to the 4th power is a 4th degree term
67c to the 9th power is a 9th degree term
x is really x to the 1st power so it is a 1st degree term
10 is really 10x to the 0 power so it is a 0 degree term
They go on to say that every constant is a zero degree term.
My question is why isn't a constant, like 10, simply to the 1st power (making is a 1st degree term) like x. Claude Tardif lui répond. |

The quadratic formula |
2003-08-31 |

Alex pose la question : I am using Houghton Mifflin's Precalculus with Limits book, 2nd edition. However, the first chapter encompasses Algebra review, and I am stuck on a problem. All that's required is to solve the following and verify using a calculator: 3y2+6y+2=0 I have solved the problem using the quadratic formula, but from what I remember, the quadratic formula is used in the case of equations following the AX2+BX+C=0 pattern. As the problem I am attempting uses a y-variable, can I still use the quadratic formula? Since I am not sure what route to take in solving this problem, I am hoping you can assist me.

Water in a cone |

Adrienne pose la question :
Water is poured into a tank in the shape of an inverted right circular cone.ð The height of the tank is 8 m and its radius at the top is 4 m. a. Draw and label a picture to represent this situation.ð (I know how to do this) b. Identify all variable quantities. (h = 8m, r = 4m) c. Find an equation that relates the variable quantities, and reduce the number of variable quantities to two. I was thinking about the equation V = 1/3 pi r2 h, which is the Volume of a cone, but I am stumped as to how I am supposed to "reduce the number of variable quantities to two." Can you point me in the right direction? Penny Nom lui répond. |

The Central Limit Theorem |
1997-04-21 |
|
Donna Hall pose la question : A skeptic gives the following argument to show that there must be a flaw in the central limit theorem: We know that the sum of independent Poisson random variables follows a Poisson distribution with aparameter that is the sum of the parameters of the summands. In particular, if n independentPoisson random variables, each with parameter 1/n, are summed, the sum has a Poisson distributionwith parameter 1. The central limit theoren says the sum tends to a normal distribution, butPoisson distribution with parameter 1 is not normal. What do you think of this argument? Neal Madras lui répond. |
