July 15, 200718 yr When each word finds its correct pair four longer words can be read. What are they?KNIFE ASTER POINT JACK POET POT VIEW LUCKJackpot , viewpoint , lacklustre , ...and hmmmmm nat
July 16, 200718 yr If one drop of rain falls in a field, doubles in size every day and in 600 days it becomes a lake, how many days did it take to reach half of its size?If it doubles it size every day then it was half its own size the day before the 600th
July 16, 200718 yr Author When each word finds its correct pair four longer words can be read. What are they?KNIFE ASTER POINT JACK POET POT VIEW LUCKJackknife, potluck,viewpoint and i`m stuck with the last two words.aster and poet???
July 16, 200718 yr Jackknife, potluck,viewpoint and i`m stuck with the last two words.aster and poet???then why didn't you put them together to get Jackknife, potluck, poetaster and viewpoint. Cympil! :lol:
July 16, 200718 yr If it doubles it size every day then it was half its own size the day before the 600thCorrect
July 16, 200718 yr Math? Maths?that bit was part of the red herring, just like most of the rest of it!heres one for you, And no calculators please! do it in your head!What is half of 99½? (thats 99½ divided by 2 for the ones looking for the trick!)Be honest and say how long it took you too!Never did get an answer tho!Amazing how many people say 48¼ tho....
July 16, 200718 yr Never did get an answer tho!Amazing how many people say 48¼ tho....Its easy , half of 99 is 49 1/2 so add an extra 1/4 and there you have it 49 3/4 taaadaaa
July 16, 200718 yr Author then why didn't you put them together to get Jackknife, potluck, poetaster and viewpoint. Cympil! :lol: Poetaster? :lol: Never heard of that!
July 16, 200718 yr Its easy , half of 99 is 49 1/2 so add an extra 1/4 and there you have it 49 3/4 taaadaaai do it a different way, but whichever is easier...99½ + ½ =100100 divided by 2= 50½ divided by 2= ¼50 - ¼ = 49¾
July 17, 200718 yr i do it a different way, but whichever is easier...99½ + ½ =100100 divided by 2= 50½ divided by 2= ¼50 - ¼ = 49¾so what would a_n = \frac{\sqrt{a_{n-1}^2 + \frac{1}{a_{n-1}^2} + 6} - a_{n-1} - \frac{1}{a_{n-1}}}{2} equall then?
July 17, 200718 yr so what would a_n = \frac{\sqrt{a_{n-1}^2 + \frac{1}{a_{n-1}^2} + 6} - a_{n-1} - \frac{1}{a_{n-1}}}{2} equall then?a_n = \frac{\sqrt{a_{n-1}^2 + \frac{1}{a_{n-1}^2} + 6} - a_{n-1} - \frac{1}{a_{n-1}}}{2}either a_n or \frac{\sqrt{a_{n-1}^2 + \frac{1}{a_{n-1}^2} + 6} - a_{n-1} - \frac{1}{a_{n-1}}}{2} ... doesn't the equation speak for itself? I'm unsure whether we can work it out without the values of a or n anyway?
July 17, 200718 yr a_n = \frac{\sqrt{a_{n-1}^2 + \frac{1}{a_{n-1}^2} + 6} - a_{n-1} - \frac{1}{a_{n-1}}}{2}either a_n or \frac{\sqrt{a_{n-1}^2 + \frac{1}{a_{n-1}^2} + 6} - a_{n-1} - \frac{1}{a_{n-1}}}{2} ... doesn't the equation speak for itself? I'm unsure whether we can work it out without the values of a or n anyway? go on there carol! pleased some one could work it out cause its al french to me!
July 18, 200718 yr This puzzle is easy to google the answer for , but working it out is good even if you know the answer FACTS:1. There are 5 houses in 5 different colours. 2.

July 18, 200718 yr Author the german! to easyHow did you get that so quickly? I`m sitting here with about ten bits of paper working it out and i`ve only got half of it done
July 18, 200718 yr How did you get that so quickly? I`m sitting here with about ten bits of paper working it out and i`ve only got half of it done simple just make a grid the answers just fall into place!
July 18, 200718 yr go on there carol! pleased some one could work it out cause its al french to me!Just as easy as it was for you to type in "Hard Maths" into google, it's just as easy typing:"a_n = \frac{\sqrt{a_{n-1}^2 + \frac{1}{a_{n-1}^2} + 6} - a_{n-1} - \frac{1}{a_{n-1}}}{2}" into google and getting the answer. Try it.
