In the Comic strip below, solve Jason's SUDOKU problem.
You must first solve the various
Calculus, Algebra, Trig, and Geometry problems in the cells.
Then solve the resulting SUDOKU problem.
The rules of Sudoku are simple.
Enter digits from 1 to 9 into the blank spaces.
Every row must contain one of each digit.
So must every column, and so must every 3x3 square.
Each Sudoku has a unique solution that can be reached logically without guessing.
COMIC STRIP is no longer available.
You may send me the answers to the 28 math problems before you invest time working on the SUDOKU problem.
I will tell you how many problems are incorrect out of the 28. Remember that each of the 28 problems
must have an integral answer from 1 to 9, inclusive.
Please send in the answers with row 1 left to
right, then row 2 left to right...
Here are some hints and clarifications for some of the problems:
Row 2 Column 4: Convert this Binary Number to Decimal
Row 2 Column 6: Calculus Derivative problem
Row 2 Column 9: Calculus Integral problem
Row 4 Column 8: Summation Problem
Row 5 Column 9: log10(10)
Row 6 Column 3: 74 - 65
Row 6 Column 8: Binary
Row 7 Column 6: - ( i 2 ) (Imaginary Numbers)
Row 8 Column 1: Binary
Row 8 Column 4: Hexadecimal: FF - F8
When you send your final solution, please send it as a 9 x 9 matrix with the
numbers 1, 2, 3, ... 9 -- not Jason's math problems!
