Problem 3 will take me a minute because I have to factor x out. #2 is wrong, but you got #1 right. Out of curiosity, what is your answer for 6÷2(1+2) = ? Yes, let me take a pic of my paper. It is sloppy so sorry. One sec. yea, that was a dumb mistake on my part, should be good now. Still need someone to show me how to do 3... nevertheless the answer to the original question is still 9 lol |

You yourself said that one was right.... fuck balls... dumb mistake I evaluated as if it were (abx)^-1 one sec I was facepalming at someone saying you can't take the expression any further. |

That was me just telling you I already evaluated it to this: 9y^2 z^6/x^2 which is its simplest form. |

Revguard User ID: 29097718 United States 01/17/2013 09:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I see why you are getting 9 now. You can't basic algebra. That answer is wrong too. are you still in high school? I really hope you take the original problem to your school teacher so they can show you why you are such a little fucking twerp. One sec. He is trolling man. Ignore him. He is purposefully steering the conversation away from original question. Which he got wrong. Look at his tactics. Last Edited by Revguard on 01/17/2013 09:12 PM |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 32057798 The funny thing is you still can't figure out why you can't get the original equation right. I am just figuring out what I did wrong with these high school algebra problems. Because I haven't done this math for so long, I obviously slipped up, I wouldn't again, because at least I am still learning what I just did wrong. And like I said. I need someone to reteach me how to do number 3. |

I need someone to reteach me how to do number 3. You can't do basic algebra, so if I threw a few of those, with an Integration sign in front of it, I assume you would be lost. So, high school student, who can't do basic algebra and order of operations, calls software engineering grad a twerp, and, with some 'imaginary authority' says his answer is "correct". Now, would you like me to tell you where you went wrong, or do you really not give a shit, and will stick to your 9 no matter what? |

I suppose 9 is close to 1, in the grand scheme of things, too. Anyway, you have proven you can't do algebra. You got 1/3 right, and that was the easy one. Number 3 is very easy. I am just dumb and over thought it. I will redo #2 completely instead of just correcting my old work. x=1/4y^2-5y |

And it is why I messed up correcting Duc at first. The equations on that sheet are not written correctly either. They should be written in fraction form because that is how we are treating them... this is exactly why it took me a minute to figure out what you guys were doing wrong and WHY people are doing it wrong. 6 ÷ 2n = =3n n=1/3 6 ÷ 2n =/= 6=2n 3=n Big difference. And I now see why you can't understand why you are wrong.... |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 31557420 United States 01/17/2013 09:48 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | its so not wrong. But after doing the worksheet problems, I understand why we are so used to treating everything that comes after a ÷ (division symbol) as a denominator. It is not correct. Are you still in high school? Take it to your teacher. I know it is fucked up but your teachers did this to you by miss writing the problems on your worksheet. It is ingrained in you. The answer is 9, and always will be my friend. |

No, I don't think he is, I think I understand why he is so confused. It is the teachers that have done this. If you did the first two problems on the worksheet, think about how you treated the variables after the ÷... we treated them like fractions, like every variable belonged in the denominator when we shouldn't. |
