Psychopath Registered: Nov. 00	Now THAT's an easy riddle fbdfl%@... :) And I can confirm that the first one is indeed a trick question. av8er said "The 1 mile distance is just thrown in to confuse the askee" ... in fact, if the track were longer it would be possible to get the avg up to 60 mph. Oh, my credentials are, I'm an SAT tutor and this kind of shit fools ALL the high-school juniors... And how dumb is the guy at the office asking random math problems he doesn't know the right answers to? :) "Art isn't easy"

Psychopath Registered: Mar. 01	There's another reason 90mph is the wrong answer. If you do the first lap in 30 mph, you can't just automatically be going 90 for the second one. There's acceleration time between 30 and the correct answer to consider. Thus, there's a different answer for different cars, drivers, track surfaces, bank angles, etc. Help those that need it.

Psychopath Registered: Feb. 01	quote: It is a trick question after all. All the question is asking is the AVERAGE of the 2 laps. The 1 mile distance is just thrown in to confuse the askee. The last time I remember calculating averages you were supposed to take the sum of the means divided by the number of means to get your average. Ok, that's the average grade, average cost, etc. Average speed is different... because you dont have a bunch of things to add together and divide. Like if you stand still for a minute and then drive at 100 miles an hour for a year, your average speed is 50 mph your saying? You take the velocity throughout the experiment at x intervals of time (the more x, the closer to the right answer) and divide... sounds like calculus, huh? Your way of doing it is like if 20 people get a hundred on a test, and others get other grades, you only count the 100 one time when you get the average grade. quote: There's another reason 90mph is the wrong answer. If you do the first lap in 30 mph, you can't just automatically be going 90 for the second one. There's acceleration time between 30 and the correct answer to consider. Thus, there's a different answer for different cars, drivers, track surfaces, bank angles, etc. I am praying thats sarcasm. You're assuming that you're going at a constant speed. You know why you can do that? Because if thats your AVERAGE VELOCITY for the lap, it WORKS THE SAME, mathematically. And you think you can go from 0-30 immediately for the first lap, using your logic? quote: If three cats catch three mice in three minutes, how many cats would be needed to catch 100 mice in 100 minutes? Three cats... they can catch one a minute among them both times. At this point, I'm probably going to give up on this problem and pray that people open their minds to think about the problem. Let others try and explain. I will, however, present the problem to some of my geek buddies at Stuy. I'll be back with the distribution of answers soon.

You can get a pretty good look at a t-bone by sticking your head up a bull's ass, but wouldn't you rather take the butcher's word for it?

O&A Board Regular Registered: Sep. 00	Three cats is right. The other question: I say you will never reach an average speed of 60 mph. You will get exponentially close, but never reach it.

Psychopath Registered: Jan. 01	quote: Ahhh, The riddle of the sphinx. Hey Painter I could be wrong but that riddle was in Edipus Rex and it was a Griphon who asked it...and the answer is man cause Edipus got it right and the Griphon left Thebes alone after years of tormenting it... Sad story though cause this happened right after he killed his father and later he goes and starts boinging his mom...those Greeks they sure knew how to tell a story...(nothing personal GrkQT) When I have fears that I may cease to be/ Before my pen has gleaned my teaming brain,/ Before high-piled books, in charactery,/ Hold like rich garners the full ripened grain;/ When I behold, upon the night's starred face,/ Huge cloudy symbols of a high romance,/ And think that I may never live to trace/ Their shadows, with the magic hand of chance,/ And when I feel, fair creature of a hour,/ That I shall never look upon thee more,/ Never have relish in the fairy power/ Of unreflecting love--then on the shore/ Of the wide world I stand alone, and think/ Till love and fame to nothingness do sink. --Keats GO GEORGIA TECH YELLOW JACKETS!!!!

Psychopath Registered: Jan. 01	From sparknotes.com... quote: The story of Oedipus is simple and well-known. Oedipus arrives at Thebes a stranger and finds the town under the curse of the Sphinx, who will not free the city unless her riddle is answered. Oedipus solves the riddle and, since the king has recently been murdered, becomes the king and marries the queen. In time, he comes to learn that he is actually a Theban, the king's son, cast out of Thebes as a baby. He has killed his father and married his mother. Horrified, he blinds himself and leaves Thebes forever. Sorry guys you were right...I wonder why I thought it was a Griphon... When I have fears that I may cease to be/ Before my pen has gleaned my teaming brain,/ Before high-piled books, in charactery,/ Hold like rich garners the full ripened grain;/ When I behold, upon the night's starred face,/ Huge cloudy symbols of a high romance,/ And think that I may never live to trace/ Their shadows, with the magic hand of chance,/ And when I feel, fair creature of a hour,/ That I shall never look upon thee more,/ Never have relish in the fairy power/ Of unreflecting love--then on the shore/ Of the wide world I stand alone, and think/ Till love and fame to nothingness do sink. --Keats GO GEORGIA TECH YELLOW JACKETS!!!!
