	Archimedes, Euclid and "Circular Reasoning"		2015-11-15
		From Ron: 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. Answered by Chris Fisher.
	Percent as a fractional relationship		2013-01-14
		From Kenneth: 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. I thank you for your reply. Answered by Penny Nom.

		From Laura: The monthly cost of driving a car depends on the number of miles driven. Lynn found that in May it cost her $300 to drive 480 miles and in June it cost her $460 to drive 800 miles. Question: Express the monthly cost C as a function of the distance driven d, assuming that a linear relationship gives a suitable model. Answered by Robert Dawson.

Define the variables you use, and refer to your notes for a variety of formats of equations we have studied this year. week 1: 3 birds infected week 2: 15 birds infected week 3: 75 birds infected week 4: 375 birds infected Answered by Stephen La Rocque.
	Two problems		2002-10-14
		From Eva: a) How many different equivalence relations can be defined on the set X={a,b,c,d}? b)Show that 6 divides the product of any 3 consecutive integers. I know it is true that 6 divides the product of any 3 consecutive integers. However, i have problem showing the proof. Answered by Leeanne Boehm and Penny Nom.

	Functions and relations		2002-04-25
		From Erin: Here's a few math problems that might drive a person insane ;) If 2f(x) - 3f(1/x) = x^2 what is f(2)? What are the domain and range of the following relations? x^2 - 4y^2 = 25 4x^2 + 9y^2 = 36 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? Prove the identity. 1+sinx + cosx/ 1-sinx + cosx = 1+sinx / cosx Answered by Penny Nom.

	Equivalence Relations		1999-05-06
		From Megan: I am tutoring a boy who got this assignment from his teacher and I have no clue how to do it because I don't even know what the questions is asking! I need some help. Hereit is: "Give five examples of relations which are not equivalent relations and five examples of equivalent relations and explain why they are equivalent relations." This is seventh grade and I read about it in his book but it is not coming together for me. Answered by Chris Fisher.
