    BULLS' EYE- Students A, B & C

    Olaf Your statement: "Selecting" a point is a bad term in itself, to select suggests to choose with some preferance, not random selection." Indicates to me that you are beatintg a dead horse and did not read the bold in my post. further your: "(1) Take a number selected randomly from...

    Olaf, I knew I'd get that response from you, but I am still waiting for a rewrite of the question that I will have only the answer 1/4. If you like you may provide 3 rewrites and indicate correct answer for each. I just want an answer key that is correct for a specific question. It is obvious...

    Sid would like to clear up a couple of points for you and himself. 1. He IS the person that made two errors in two posts. He is sorry and will try not to repeat in the future.(For this he writes #2.) 2. He wants to know if the following rewrite would have the same type of response(s). Note: I...

    Minimum pitch count

    The NFL also has a one-point "conversion safety" rule, but such a safety can only be scored by the offense. According to former NFL referee Jerry Markbreit: Under NFL rules, an unsuccessful extra-point is dead if kicked, but while attempting a two-point try, it is possible for a safety to...

    Minimum pitch count

    One must also consider (see Cajun)use of illegal/ bad bats. Ump may upon suspect declare batter out if he has a 'bad' bat, i.e. weighted beyond limits or weighted below limits (i.e. corked) or waxed, goughed etc. But can not play this trick with impunity due to fact that in addition to an out...

    kwbMitel, re. the 2 above statements. They may just account for the problem statement. In a hat with 9 red counters and one white counter I can predict with 90% etc... I base my refusal to continue on my 5th ammendment rights.

    Minimum pitch count

    25, base ten, by losing pitcher for complete game. The 25th is the single hit HR by home team in bottom of ninth which wins the game for home team. Total min pitches in base Ten for completed 9 inning game = 52.

    CajunCenturian, What you are saying is that when you measure the water on the two different moist plates AT THE SAME INSTANT there are at least two different correct answers depending upon how you collect/sample the moisture.

    BULLS' EYE- Students A, B & C

    I believe you guys are putting me through some kind of pledge hazing! ;>). Are either of you saying that given 2 circular plates with radius 1:2 that if placed in the rain that one will hold twice as much rain or get twice as wet as the other because the radii are in the ratio of 2:1? Does...

    BULLS' EYE- Students A, B & C

    CajunCenturion Yes, a typo, Meant 2:1 It wasn't me that brought the definition of circle in here or how many problems about circles have radii, In the nitty gritty which is so often demanded here the a circle is all the points in the plane a given distance from a given point (called radius and...

    KwbMitel, I believe that the numbers do not have to be in a random distribution or order to pick/make one random. No need to study sand distribution at the beach before making a random i.e. unbiased selection. Those 27366 which have factors of 9 were 7 digits in length and made only from...

    BULLS' EYE- Students A, B & C

    Cajun... Even if you told me what picture I wouldn't know how to post it. Help? re. Cajuns' "Given that the problem says absolutely nothing about area, and that a circle is defined solely by its radius and a fixed point, why would one, by default (common sense?) assume that area is the basis...

    BULLS' EYE- Students A, B & C

    Olaf said "Do you not consider student C has choosen the radius chord because the radius is the only coordniate deciding if a point is in the inner circle?" I don't know why C picked the big radius. I do know he picked something that the odds were 50-50 for P distribution on WHAT he picked...

    kwbMeitel said: "I do not disagree for one moment your claim that 67% of the numbers are divisible by nine." kwbMeitel, this statement is confusing. It would be more accurate to say That: "Of all the UNIQUE prime factorizations I generated from a combination of the primes 2,3,5,and 7 67% of...

    BULLS' EYE- Students A, B & C

    I will try one (or perhaps 2) more times. I speak to student C, and Proponents of C being correct respond. "C, I grant you that after you generate your point P (not in the center) and subsequently the radius of the radius OB of the large circle containing P and intersecting the small circle at...

    BULLS' EYE- Students A, B & C

    Cajun, "When using polar coordinates, there is no error in C's answer." The problem with that statement is that C's answer to posed question is WRONG. Just as wrong as if the small circle was magnetic and the large (underneah was plastic) and C chose his random numbers by tossing small iron...

    I can Predict your response with '90%' accuracy.

    Come on karluk! Mercy... I was proposing a rough method of getting a number closer to 90% than 67% and your banging me for a rather rather big discrepancy of 3%. PLUS attributing it to combining green balls and not the following. I took 8 picks working on an average of 5 to get 7 digits...

    BULLS' EYE- Students A, B & C

    I gave my thoughts on Student A, so will not repeat here. Student B, need the most help. It appears to me that he, like A has done the circle calculations correctly but apparently did not consider that the intersection of the two circles were shared by both circles. His thoughts, One black inner...

    Olaf You missed my point (or was it a hook) when I said: "I am not sure if there is or isn't a 1 to 1 mapping between points in the inner circle and the annulus (I need to study that), but I do know there is a 1 to 1 mapping between the points on the base of a triangle and the segment...

    Olaf, I am not sure if there is or isn't a 1 to 1 mapping between points in the inner circle and the annulus (I need to study that), but I do know there is a 1 to 1 mapping between the points on the base of a triangle and the segment determined by midpoints on the other two sides (a tease for...
