tengaku squared 291 Report post Posted March 13, 2011 I know the answer. Sorry, but that's not right. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aeyra 260 Report post Posted March 13, 2011 Is the answer 4? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tengaku squared 291 Report post Posted March 13, 2011 Nope. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aeyra 260 Report post Posted March 13, 2011 I've never read/watched it! How am I supposed to know? Is the answer three?! Two?! You know, I'm just going to think of a complicated balancing equations problem to put here and that way you actually have to think to answer it. Either that, or I'll put up a National MathCounts problem. *meh* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tengaku squared 291 Report post Posted March 13, 2011 Why can no one get this problem? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aeyra 260 Report post Posted March 14, 2011 Because I've never read the freaking books! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inspector Gin 45 Report post Posted March 14, 2011 Okay, I'll just go with none. Wrong! Is the answer 4? Are you going to say 4 than 3 than 2 than 1? Because I've never read the freaking books! Why don't you look up the freaking book? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tengaku squared 291 Report post Posted March 14, 2011 I guess I will give a hint. Since no one gets the question, this topic should be locked. (I don't mean this seriously, it's the hint) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aeyra 260 Report post Posted March 14, 2011 I searched it up and it said four stinking kids and a dog. It says so on Wikipedia. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tengaku squared 291 Report post Posted March 14, 2011 No...I looked it up on Wikipedia too... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aeyra 260 Report post Posted March 14, 2011 Julian, Dick and Anne get together with their cousin George Four Children! Count them! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tengaku squared 291 Report post Posted March 15, 2011 Well, count the dog. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HalfAngel 28 Report post Posted March 15, 2011 Hmmm...don't know what's that. Uhm, is the answer FIVE??? Wrong Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aeyra 260 Report post Posted March 15, 2011 Now the answer would be FIVE then, wouldn't it? But last time I checked, DOGS WEREN'T CONSIDERED CHILDREN! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inspector Gin 45 Report post Posted March 15, 2011 I guess I will give a hint. Since no one gets the question, this topic should be locked. (I don't mean this seriously, it's the hint) What is the hint? I searched it up and it said four stinking kids and a dog. It says so on Wikipedia. Did it say four STINKING kids and a dog? No...I looked it up on Wikipedia too... What did it say? Julian, Dick and Anne get together with their cousin George Four Children! Count them! That right! it's four with a dog, that's why it's called Blytons Famous Five. Well, count the dog. It will be five. But the dog is not a kid! Now the answer would be FIVE then, wouldn't it? But last time I checked, DOGS WEREN'T CONSIDERED CHILDREN! You are right dogs are not considered children. Girls turn :grin:! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aeyra 260 Report post Posted March 15, 2011 Let's see, um, something nice and hard... Looks in MathCounts National Problems. (an easier one to start with) Two regular square pyramids have all edges 12cm in length. The pyramids have parallel bases and parallel edges, and each has a vertex at the center of the other pyramid's base. What is the total number of cubic centimeters in the volume of the intersection of the two pyramids? Express the answer in simplest radical form. Calculators allowed! (though it doesn't need one...)

tengaku squared 291 Report post Posted March 17, 2011 Bear with me here, I did this all in my head, and I'm a tad rusty on math. Is it 1728√3 cm3? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aeyra 260 Report post Posted March 19, 2011 Bear with me here, I did this all in my head, and I'm a tad rusty on math. Is it 1728√3 cm3? ... ... ... Quite a bit off. You should do it on paper. Hint: Formula is: 1/3 BH for the pyramids. You should get an octahedron out of this problem though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tengaku squared 291 Report post Posted March 19, 2011 Hint: Formula is: 1/3 BH for the pyramids. You should get an octahedron out of this problem though. Ohhhh. I accidentally for some dumb reason did the cylinder formula, and as I said, I did this in my head. How did I get the square root, I have no clue.
