2. ### How to do this problem??

Express [âˆ‘(n) (k=1) [3(1+4k/n)]*(4/n)] as a closed form (your answer will be in terms of n).
3. ### Triangle problem

Given triangle with lengths a,b,c , prove that the sum of two random chosen lengths is larger than the other length.
4. ### period find problem

i was looking at shor's algorithm and had a bright idea, square the numbers rather than multiply by a specific base. this idea however doesn't seem to work. for example, the followng code: def gcd(p,q): if p == 0: return q else: return gcd(q%p,p) N= 97*79 per = 1...
5. ### Circular track problem.

Circular track: Both are in same direction. A = 3m/sec, B = 1 m/sec. Circumference of track = 100m. What is the time taken by A & B to reach starting point for first time?
6. ### vector problem

Hi all, Please take a look at the attached image of the problem and if someone could explain where the indicated value came from that would be so very helpful. I got everything but not quite sure why the sqrt2 was inserted towards the end.
7. ### Geometry Problem Series, Question 3:

Pentagon $ABCDE$ is inscribed in a circle. $AB \parallel EC$, $AE \parallel BD$. $AD \cap EC \equiv G$, $BD \cap EC \equiv F$ and $AC \cap BD \equiv H$. Prove that the area of $AGFH$ is equal to the sum of the areas of $DEG$ and $BCH$. --------
8. ### Geometry Problem Series, Question 2:

$T$ is the middle point of the segment $AB$ of the convex quadrilateral $ABCD$. The circle $\omega$, through points $C,D,T$, is tangent to $AB$. $K$ and $L$ are the intersection points of $AD$ and $BC$ respectively with $\omega$. $M$ and $N$ are the intersection points of $AC$ and $BD$...
9. ### Geometry Problem Series, Question 1:

A circle circumscribed to the triangle $ABC$. $D$ is a point on the circumcircle. Prove that symmetries of the point D according to the edges of the triangle are collinear.
10. ### When to add & subtract in this time & distance problem?

A and B are racing at a 1 km track. A gives B a start of 100m and beats him by 15 sec. A, in his over confidence, now gives B a start of 90 sec, but loses by 500m. In how much time does A finish the race? Sol: 1st case: A does 1000m in t sec B does 900m in t +15 sec 2nd case...
11. ### How to solve a distance problem ?

12. ### Problem involving analytic expressions

Given 3 random numbers x,y,z \in \mathbb{R}\;: (a) Find the number that is bounded by the two other numbers. Express it in terms of a function like \phi (x,y,z). (b) Express the largest number in terms of \phi(x,y,z).
13. ### Pagerank problem

Hi, I am not sure how to solve the problem as attached. Help needed. Thanks
14. ### Problem with arguing about probability mass of general random variable

(I'm not sure if this is the right sub-forum, but I didn't see a better fit.) I have a problem with an exercise in a machine learning text-book. Solving it doesn't require any knowledge of machine learning, though, just of advanced probability theory. It's a very simple exercise in principle...
15. ### Explain these two questions in distance problem.

Shatabdi express left Delhi 40 min late. After covering half of the distance it increased its usual speed by 1/6 of original speed and reached Chandigarh on scheduled time. Find usual time (in min) taken by Shatabdi express to cover complete journey. Solution: Speed Ratio; 6 : 7 Time ratio; 7 ...
16. ### Help turning word problems into equations please...

Hello, my class has just started exploring rational equations. I have no problem solving the equations on their own but when I need to convert information into these equations I can confuse myself. If anyone can help me with turning these two problems into rational equations, I'd be really...
17. ### Problem: How To Get The Same Profit With Increased Sale Price

I'm listing a product for sale on Ebay, and wondering if someone can help solve this mathematical problem: If you sell a product to the US it costs let's say \\$3 for the shipping, which we add into the overall sale price of the item. If we then sell the same product to the UK, it costs us...
18. ### Explain this step in Average speed problem?

What is the average speed of a man who works at 1kmph for 1 hour, 2 kmph for 2 hours........ till 10 kmph for 10 hours? A) Average speed = (Total distance)/(Total time) = (1*1+2*2+3*3â€¦â€¦.10*10)/(1+2+3****+10) = {1/6 n(n+1)(2n+1)}/ {1/2 n(n+1)} = 2n+1/3; (n = 10) = 7...
19. ### How to find average speed for this problem?

What is the average speed of a man who travels 1/4th distance at 10kmph, 1/3rd the distance at 20kmph and the rest at 12.5 kmph? Solution: Remaining time = 1 â€“ (1/4 + 1/3) = 5/12 Multiplying 12 to fractions to get whole numbers; 3, 4 & 5. After this how to proceed?
