I found the problem easy -- solved it in a yoctosecond. I still haven't solved it; what do you think the solution is? B, C, and D cannot all be correct, of course, but it seems to me that any one of them can be right, provided the other two are wrong. Andy Latto andy.latto@pobox.com What do I think? I think it's appropriate for a middle school qualification test. (At first I thought, like Bernie, that the problem contradicted itself, that the mislabeled diagram couldn't be to scale. But that's wrong: the diagram represents the *cities* to scale. Nowhere does it claim to accurately depict all four distance labels.) --Dan _______________________________________________ math-fun mailing list math-fun@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/math-fun
