If you could have dinner with three actors no longer living, who would they be!

14 Answers

Who wants to have dinner with dead people?

None they were all just acting

Alan Rickman, because I'd like to ask him about the Harry Potter films. Sam Kelly because I'd want to ask about his role on Black Books as Manny's dad. And Diana Dors because I'd want to ask about the Adam & The Ants promo for Prince Charming in which she was the Fairy Godmother, as well as Queenie's Castle as it was filmed at Quarry Hill Flats (now the base of the West Yorkshire Playhouse).

You have one 4-min hourglass, and one 7-min hourglass. How can you time 9 minutes exactly?

9 Answers

v, are your stupid. you cannot assume that you know exactly what half the sand is. Everything has to be accurate. Less

Start both timers, when the four minute timer is done, there will be 3 minutes of sand left in the top of the seven minute timer. Restart the four minute timer, while letting the remaining (3 minutes) of sand to drop from the 7 minute timer. (this is your 1st 3 minutes of your nine minute measurement) When the 7 minute timer is done the 4 minute timer will now have 3 minutes of sand in the bottom. Flip the 4 minute timer (when this runs it will be your second 3 minutes of time). At the same time flip the 7 minute timer. When the 3 minutes of sand run on the 4 minute timer, restart the 7 minute timer by this time 3 minutes worth of sand will have gone to the bottom of the timer, resetting it will give you the last 3 minutes of sand for you last 3 minutes of time measuring the 9 nine minutes.

Si je bois la moitié de ma bouteille de 50 cl, puis je te la donne et tu bois la moitié du reste, puis tu me la rends et je bois la moitié de ce qu'il reste, etc. jusqu’à ce que la bouteille soit vide... Finalement quelles seront les quantités totales que

Person 1: Drinks 50/2, then 50/8, then 50/32 and so on. It's an infinite suite, the infinite summation gives 50/2*1/(3/4)=100/3 which is 33.33. Same reasoning for the other person works, but knowing the bottle is 50cl, he drinks 16.66cl. Less

You can do it in this way: 1st person drinks: 1/2 + 1/8 + 1/32 +.... 2nd person drinks: 1/4 + 1/16 + 1/64+... which is equal to 1/2(1/2 + 1/8 + 1/32 + ). So the second drinks half of what the first drinks. So the first drinks 2/3 50cl and the second1/3 50cl Less

Building on what Lorenzo said and to be 100% rigorous: a=2b a+b=50cl a=2b 3a=50cl ... Less

What is the most useful metric from the Financial Statements for lenders?

5 Answers

Free Cash Flow as it helps to determine how much in interest payments the company can afford to make on an annual basis. Less

i would say Debt / EBITDA ratio, as a lender, we care more about its debt repayment ability. Less

In order of priority: 1. Liquidity ratios - should be atleast 1 or above Current ratio Quick Ratio Cash Conversion Cycle = DSO + DIO - DPO ..the lesser the number of days the more liquid 2. Debt Service Ratios: EBITDA/P+I Cash flow from operations/P+I Cash flow from operation - Capex /P+I 3. Leverage Ratios Debt/Equity Debt/Total Assets Less
