The worlds first riddle!

QUESTION

3 imaginary beings let's call them ELVISES shoot randomly, unerringly and simultaneously at one of 3 TV'S. How many TV'S are expected to remain unscathed?

There is a new disease called Odumb! also known as On The On.~

In other words, what evil thoughts you have, will be done to you, and your ~ people in a Ping Pong fashion.

Amen.

NUMBER NAMES
[size=8]n-z: two
a-m: ?
top row: two
right hand: million, uno
left hand: tres[/size]

SHOOTING TVs
[size=8]3/27 * 2 + 18/27 * 1 = 24/27 = 8/9[/size]

Half marks to markr, (yes that expression is a little puzzle that isn't half puzzling)?

If E = the number of ELVISES
and T = the number of TV's:

Then [(T-1)^E] / [T^(E-1)] is the number of TV's which escaped.

Nice work on the expected value of a binomial probability, markr.

Tri,,,YeGz@Viear YaWaY B@eD@ChaeZ~ my daddy(OtwoTheeO's) dehydrate the eh's please.

Amen.

That was funny.
If you are there wouldn't your phone card melt (you crack me up) oops, that would be humor and I keep getting lost but, I know I am in the riddle thread, at least I think I am. TwoI came up with none I also came up with none (those could be considered trivia btw) so maybe I am lost I had to give my brain a rest so I didn't think about these

This is the Seattle area (picture #2)


This is Mt. St. Helens (picture #3) Notice no top, OMG she is topless. She is mad too because I can see her steaming. So, she is both topless & mad


No more pictures, just wanted to tell you what the pictures are.

Try:
[size=8]beforehand[/size]

I can't stay but wanted to say why I came up with some nones on my answers (no not nuns, nones)

Typwriter keyboard= The letters were changed back in the 80's so they are not the same as the keyboards we are typing on now for computers.

The left hand right hand I came up with none because I don't believe there is any on the left side (not english anyway) and the right side (still english) you can get million but that would be incorrect I believe because someone would say "one million" not just million.

Just my opinion so the chances of being wrong are high
btw Hi mark and etc you must always be praying. epenthesis, hi to you too.

Btw, TTH, stop calling me Frances...

Can you read in the left side, above my avatar?

Above your avatar?
It says "Francis Veteran Member". I apologize for getting the spelling wrong.
It was unintentional. I will make a point of calling you Francis. I am sorry

Very clever.

You are correct.

Thankfully I am unacquainted with Marks? However his:

Hiya toots, how's use doing?




Etc, "dehydrate the eh's please"


Keep drinking fluids people.






Rumor Mill:


Francis is getting hacked off when people call him cuddly bumpkins! - population flee Paris…


















….Paris, Missouri, USA that is - Heart of Monroe County & Mark Twain Country. Friendliest town in Little Dixie…… Hack away Monsure!


Try fails to agree with the ?'Shooting TV's'; as with the three coin toss thinks there is the same probability. (Although he has been wrong before).



Phoenix - hair not officially ?'blue'. (as in Marge Simpson) but falls outta bed just the same.








I found this all rather amusing…



1. The equation in Quantum Mechanics which is the analog of Newton's second law in classical mechanics is

a. the Einstein relation. b. The Stefan-Boltzmann equation. c. the Schrödinger equation. d. the Quantum Number equation. e. none of these


2. One of the strange things about the formalism of quantum mechanics is that, instead of using algebraic symbols to represent quantities which are observed in nature, it uses

a. schematic symbols. b. Chinese characters. c. quantum mechanical arrow symbols. d. quantum mechanical values. e. quantum mechanical operators.


3. The significance of the absolute-square of the quantum mechanical wave function is that

a. it tells us about the probability of finding the particle at a particular position and time. b. it tells us about the size and shape of the particle under consideration. c. it tells us about the probability that the theory will work for a particular experiment. d. it is not always real, so that sometimes it has nothing to do with reality at all! e. it equals zero whenever the particle being studied falls below a certain position.


4. The quantum number in quantum mechanical formalism is similar to the

a. velocity of a particle in kinematics. b. charge on different particles. c. energy of a fast particle. d. harmonic number for standing waves on a string e. mole number in the study of thermodynamics.


5. The second excited state of a quantum system is the state that

a. is the second largest state. b. is two energy states above the ground state. c. is the second quantum state d. is two energy levels below the ground state e. has the quantum number n = 2.

Have you been wandering around with PaulaJ, Try?

Samuel Clemens wouldn't be proud of you...

Jealously is a sin. Ahem!


"Samuel Clemens wouldn't be proud of you..."

True; but E.A.Poe:

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
`'Tis some visitor,' I muttered, `tapping at my chamber door -
Only this, and nothing more.'


Who could it be at this time?

This oughta jar your preserves:


I keep a stash of coins to pay the toll crossing on my trips into town; I presently have three more dimes than nickels and two fewer quarters than nickels. When I counted it all up, I had a total of $5.40. A tidy sum I'm sure you would agree.
The question is:

How many of each type of coin do I have

NUMBER NAMES: a half is both an (a-m) and a (middle row) rational number that sadly falls short by a half at the integer hurdle.

COINS: Curiously, the total number of coins is the highest original McNugget number.
