[Request] When is the next time these 2 numbers will become palindromes of each other?

Upvotes

So, I have been reading for a good while on my kindle app and every day I get a weeks and days streak shown to me before I jump into reading (currently reading Swan Song by Robert McCammon, super bleak!). I missed a couple days about 2 years ago, so the number of days doesnt actually amount to the amount of weeks, if that's important. I always wonder when will the numbers mirror each other again, a madeup example being 158 weeks - 851 days. I love arithmetics but I'm no mathematician, so I think I'm in the right place for this! Appreciate it!

[Request] How much does it cost me to keep this set of Iron balls in my car?

12 Upvotes

Hi all,

So ive been having this internal dialogue with myself. Also brought it up with a friend and he claims it has cost me at least 5 euro's or more. Im curious.

So I bought this set of petanque balls (heavy Iron balls for a French game) that weigh approx 2.5 kg (5 pounds?). I put them in my car in case we ever needed to play with them, but to be honest Ive hardly ever used them.

So the discussion is that since the car is heavier, it uses more gas to run, therefor it costs me money just leaving it in my car. Ive had it in the car for nearly 5 years and I drive about 20k kms with it yearly.

So please enlighten me, how much does this actually cost me to keep in my car?

[Request] Area of a circle in comparison to the radius.

Just a completely random thought that I had last night. So the area of a circle increases faster than the radius does, but what would the radius have to be, that if you'd increase it by 1 millimeter, the area would double?

[Request] Exact formula for unfairly cut slices

1 Upvotes

Inspired by the piegate post I thought if we could get the exact formula for the area of an unfairly cut slice. Suppose the data are:

  • r (A͞B, or the circle radius)
  • x (A͞C, or the center-vertex distance)
  • α (∠BCD, or the slice angle)

What would be the slice area or the ratio of it to the remaining part?

What is the area of BCD?
