Three circles are stacked so they are touching each other. What is the area of the space between them if the radius of each circle is 4. Bonus credit, if the radius of each circle is x.
i'm not sure i understand the question. I am pictures 3 balls (with radius 4) all stacked on top of each other like balls of ice cream on a cone. So, I don't know what you mean by the space between them?
oh, wait. you are talking about stacking them like balls in a pool rack. two on the bottom and one between them on top?

if the pool rack layout is right, then
1. if the radius of the circles is 4, the area between is 30.2929
2. A formula for that would be 2 x (3)^1/2 x X^2 - (Pi) x (1/2) x X^2
Or 2 times square root of 3 times X squared Minus Pi divided by 2 times X squared.

Three crackheads live under a bridge downtown. They agreed to buy new rocks of crack. Alan and Burt would go get the crack and Carl would stay to protect their shopping carts and boxes. Burt bought 75 rocks of crack behind the bus station and Alan bought 45 rocks. Once they got back to the bridge, they split the rocks equally. Carl paid $140 for the crack. How much dollars did
Burt and Alan get from that sum, considering they equally split the crack?
why does no one try to solve mine?

i believe in catering education to all classes of society. we have to word these math problems so the inner city kids take more interest in the STEM programs.

In all honesty it wasn't really a math prob but a Mensa question. I remember it from highschool, but you are correct.

It's kinda scary to me how smart you guys are. For real, that's not my stroking your collective egos. Math, talk about a torture device. I took enough in HS to pass (barely)!!
We're not really all that smart. We just look like it compared to CTC.
I must have been drinking the day I posted this.
So what are you saying? We aren't smart!?!?

Did Carl pay $140 for all the crack or just his 40 rocks?

or to simplify it more: [ (2)(sqrt 3) - (pi/2) ] * X sqrd = 1.893305 * X^2
or 1.893305 * (4)^2 = 30.2929

Put three quarters on a table over a piece of white paper so they stack up in a triangle shape. There will be a white space of the paper underneath that shows between them. What's that area?
