sauer: Seven years ago, Julia's mum was twice as old as Julia. Today Julia's mum is 31. How old is Julia? M-7=2(D-7) M-7=2D-14 M-2D=-7 * M=31 Sub 31 for M in eqn * 31-2D=-7 -2D=-38 D=19 Hence Julia is 19 year old. |

sauer: The difference between two numbers is -38. Two times the smaller number minus five times the larger number is -217. What are the numbers? Let the smaller number be x and the bigger one γ̲̣̣̥ X-y=-38....eqn (1) 2x-5y=-217...eqn (2) 4rm eqn(1) X=y-38* Sub y-38 for x in eqn(2) 2(y-38)-5y=-217 2y-76-5y=-217 -3y=-141 Y=47 4rm eqn(*) X=y-38 Sub 47 for y in eqn(*) X=47-38 X=9 So the smaller and the larger numbers are 9 and 47 Respectively. |

kariolality: You have got to fill a cylindrical drum with a bucket(frustrum of a cone) by fetching water from the tap with the bucket and pouring it into the drum(cylinder), The bucket is 20cm deep,with the top and buttom radius of 21cm and 7cm, approximate the number of time you will fetch from the tap to fill the cylindrical drum if the height of the drum 120cm and its radius is 42cm , if u get the answer,i got a small gift for you,Volume of a bucket 22/7*H/3(R^3-r^3)/R-r Volume of cylinder pai*r^2*h Solution Volume of cylinder ÷ Volume of bucket Ans:50 times because you need 50 of the Buckets τ̅☺ make the cylinder Full. |

A Football match is τ̅☺ be played involving τ̅☺ teams A and B What is the probability the match Ends in a draw....? |
Re: Maths Tricks, Questions And Brain Teasers by Nobody: 9:16am On Jul 28, 2012 |
B can win, A can win, or the match could be a draw. Three possibilities Hence, P = 1/3 |

Graph of y=2x^2+8x+6 ..x will be what?..when the slope is 12..... |

Wemmy6284: Graph of y=2x^2+8x+6 ..x will be what?..when the slope is 12.....Such graph cant have a slope. It's a quadratic graph. |

Lack of mathematcal aptitude. Smh! You only say dy/dx = slope, when u are talking about a linear curve. When it's nonlinear, then it's "rate of change". What will be the value of x, when the rate of change of y wrt x is 12? Gerrit? |
Re: Maths Tricks, Questions And Brain Teasers by Nobody: 9:46pm On Aug 10, 2012 |
Or at best, when the slope of the tangent at x is 12? |
Re: Maths Tricks, Questions And Brain Teasers by Nobody: 11:01pm On Aug 10, 2012 |
Ok Sir |

sauer:It is not a linear graph,i know it doesn't have a constant slope...but all the same,thnks 4 d correction..Yeah |

Re: Maths Tricks, Questions And Brain Teasers by LordReed(m): 9:55am On Sep 06, 2012 |
sauer: Yeah, you could call it a weaponised cutlass such as the pirates and soldiers of yore used to carry. It is obviously not the everyday farm cutlass you seem to have in mind. |
