Yeah, I'm bored, so here's three random questions on three totally different subjects. The first member to post all three correct answers gets a nice ego boost and perhaps a few minerals. If nobody seems to be able to get it, the most complete answer will win.

1. S[sub]i[/sub] denotes the ith integer in set S such that S[sub]1[/sub] = 1, S[sub]i[/sub] = 10S[sub]i - 1[/sub] + 1, and i is an element of the set of integers between 1 and 2006, inclusive. How many elements of set S are divisible by 37?

2. Translate: あなた わ ごせん えん お もて います か? (as you might guess, Google miserably fails)

okay.. since I doubt anyone will make a single drop of headway, I'll romanize it: anata wa gosen en o motte imasu ka?

3. According to the 2000 U.S. Census, what U.S. state has the highest percentage of non-Hispanic whites?

Have fun!

You need to download an expanded unicode font, such as Bitstream Cyberbit (it's free!)

No, it's not Korean; no the phrase does not mean "Is that Korean?", and no that's not a compete set of right answers.

I told you, it hasn't got a thing to do with a plug.

Are my 2 answers right? (1 and 3)
Report, edit, etc...Posted by DT_Battlekruser on 2006-06-09 at 01:45:03
I'm not at liberty so say. The first set of 3 correct answers wins.

ADDITION:
Ah well; I've had my fun and you all lose. Here's the answers:

1. S[sub]i[/sub] denotes the ith integer in set S such that S[sub]1[/sub] = 1, S[sub]i[/sub] = 10S[sub]i - 1[/sub] + 1, and i is an element of the set of integers between 1 and 2006, inclusive. How many elements of set S are divisible by 37?

S = {1,11,111,1111,11111,111111,....}

37 * 3 = 111.

Therefore, 111 is divisible by 37.

111 * 101 = 111111.

Therefore, 111111 is divisible by 37.

The pattern repeats, and it can be shown that for S[sub]i[/sub], if i is divisible by 3, S[sub]i[/sub] is divisbile by 37. The number of i in [1,2006] divisible by 3 is 668.

2. Translate: あなた わ ごせん えん お もて います か? (as you might guess, Google miserably fails)

okay.. since I doubt anyone will make a single drop of headway, I'll romanize it: anata wa gosen en o motte imasu ka?

Anata (you) wa (part.) gosen (five thousand) en (yen) o (part.) motte imasu (to have) ka (marks question)?

Do you have five thousand yen?

3. According to the 2000 U.S. Census, what U.S. state has the highest percentage of non-Hispanic whites?

Maine

An ego-bowl to Noober for getting 2 of 3 correct answers. Maybe I'll do this again soon.
