Both made good points but it seems that Galileo didn't think about the full picture.

That freaking pyramid was made 4500 years ago. And it is 480 ft tall!
Some granite stones in it weigh well over 50 tons! How could possibly people of that old time with no modern technology lifted the stones to build that huge monument?

On Yahoo Answers, many many people have been saying that its not a planet... what about the textbooks? On one of the questions, some one said they heard that they were only considering it... Did they make a conclusion? And if they DID make a comclusion, when was it made?

1-find the center and radius of the circle: x^2+y^2-4x+6y-23=0
2-for the function f described by f(x)=x^2-3x, find f(-2), f(0), f(a+b)
3-y varies directly as the cube of x and x is multiplied by 0.5. What is the effect on y?
4-solve log(small 2)(log(small3)x)=2
5-a chemist has 2 solutions of ammonia&water. Sol A is 6% ammon. Sol B is 2% ammon. How many liters of each solution are needed in order to obtain 80 liters of a Sol that is 3.2% Ammon
6-a plane can fly 190 miles with the wind in the same time that it takes to fly 160 miles agst the wind. Wind speed is 30 MPH. How fast can the plane fly in still air?
7-The centripetal force F of an object moving in a circle varies directly as the square of the velcity V and inversely as the radius R of the circle. If f=8 when V=1 and R=10, what is F when v=2 and r=16?
thanks vm in advance plse show the work thanks again for helping a not so good math student, (but im trying)

We've been spared by the skin of our teeth so many times, Schwassman-Wachmann 3 was one of the last NEO's that broke apart and missed us by a tenacious bit. We are not exempt from a hit, and we are fool to think it. History speaks of comet/asteroid impacts since prehistoric times. When do you think we will catch the next one? One that everyone on Earth will be affected by, in some way?

John has 300 feet of lumber to frame a rectangular patio (the perimeter of a rectangle is 2 times length plus 2 times width). He wants to maximize the area of his patio (area of a rectangle is length times width). What should the dimensions of the patio be, and show how the maximum area of the patio is calculated from the algebraic equation.

Show clearly the algebraic steps which prove your dimensions are the maximum area which can be obtained. Use the vertex form to find the maximum area.

Two runners start in opposite directions at the northernmost point of a circular track 20.0 m in radius. If the speed of each runner is constant and is 5.31 km/h for Runner A and 3.44 km/h for Runner B, where will they meet? Where will they meet the second time? Assume that they go around the track on essentially the same path, with Runner A initially headed west and Runner B initially headed east.
