I personally am not a fan in math.


When it comes to math, i'm an idiot. Dont get me wrong but I can add numbers and ****, but....


What will you need to know all that stuff for? (honestly, dont flame, im asking)



:hourglass

must have been an RCC school special ... I'll have to raid the offices again looking for it ... ohhh well

but hey thanks for the 1=0 ... with that it can be proven that every number equals zero

so since we know from cosmic's proof that 1 = 0 we can multiply both sides by 2 to get 2 = 0 and sine 2=0 = 1 we can then state 1=2 ...

yeah I'm soooo bored at work .. someone call in and complain about fast busies when making calls or LD recordings or something ...

ya i guess you could be right, it just depends what you want to do, in my case, i dont think I will need those crazy equations.


I want to take Business Administration and Entrepreneurial Studies in Uni/Col

I know i'm going to need some math, but not too much crazy equations to find out an angle of a triangle or the CosA shiznat !

3 - ( 2 a + 4 – 3 ) + 3a + 3 ( 2 a- 3 + 6 ) = 3 + (4a + 6) + 15


something like this

if you're interested in business, you're going to have to learn the math that cosmic wrote with the 0=1 equation
that's really just simple calculus, and to get into business in university you need calculus, and will have to take atleast one year of math in university

hehe and if you want to go into electronics .. it's all math ... 99.9% is math .... the rest is figuring out which equation to use

3 - ( 2 a + 4 – 3 ) + 3a + 3 ( 2 a- 3 + 6 ) = 3 + (4a + 6) + 15

3-2a-4+3+3a+6a-9+18 = 3+4a+6+15

group all like terms on each side together

11+7a = 24+4a
group the "a" terms on one side, the others on the other side. when you move from one side to the other, you must change the "sign" -positive or negative- in front of each number.

7a-4a = 24-11
3a=13

divide both sides by 3

a= 13/3

Now watch the following 'proof':

Int(1/x^2 * 2x)dx = 1/x^2 * x^2 - Int(-2/x^3 * x^2)dx
{just take f(x) = 1/x^2 and g(x) = 2x}

this yields:

Int(2/x)dx = 1 - Int(-2/x)dx = 1 + Int(2/x)dx
substracting Int(2/x)dx on both sides yields:

0 = 1


math is your friend
Now now Cosmic.. lets not scare Blade
