Ask The Director.


The Director

Suppose there is a town with just one barber, who is male. In this town, every man keeps himself clean-shaven, and he does so by doing exactly one of two things:

Shaving himself, or

going to the barber.

 

Another way to state this is:

The barber shaves only those men in town who do not shave themselves.

 

All this seems perfectly logical, until we pose the paradoxical question:

Who shaves the barber?

If a plot of land is 232,888 ft2, then how many acres is it?

43,560 square feet are in one acre, so 54236820544(232,888 ft sq) divided by 1897473600 (43,560 ft sq) = 28.583702320812263211461809007514 acres.

 

May I assist in answering a few questions here?

:D

If you would like. I do not mind. :)

The barber shaves himself while his shop is closed, meaning that he is off the clock and no longer a barber. Rather lame paradox, if you ask me. ;)

Bad math, Director. O.o; There are 5.3463 Acres in a 232,888 ft sq plot of land.

Which came first the chicken or the egg???

The egg that a chicken came out of was laid by a different type of bird (same species, just wasn't domesticated and wasn't known as a "chicken"), and the hatched bird was then domesticated, creating the modern chicken.

Lightning struck my house and now the speakers on my TV don't work very well. They work when someone is just watching TV , but when I try to use them for my Wii or my Xbox 360, all I get is silence and occasionally a slight droning. I've double-checked all the wires and they're definitely plugging in correctly. What do you think?

It might be that the Connectors in your TV have worn out or become damaged. It's obviously not your actual speakers, because they still work, so it must be the connectors that you plug your X-Box and Wii into. Might have to get a new TV, or get it repaired.

What is 3+3 reversed?

It depends on what you mean by reversed. If you mean opposite, then it would be 3-3. If you mean reversing the numerals within the equation, then it would be 3+3 still. If you mean reversing it mirror wise, then it would be E+E.

Very good.

 

In graph theory, what is a Star S7?

In graph theory, Star S7 are the non-isomorphic graphs. These are the types of graphs that possess a given property, in a given problem and are written in perms.

 

 

What is the acidity level of an average battery?

By acidity level do you mean PH balance? Because it would be about 1.5.
