I am curious to see how many people can (assuming they are willing t do so) answer these next five questions. They are basic algebra equations that can be found in most if not all highschool algebra books.



1. (5+2) x (5+2) =

2. 2(5+2) x (5+2) =

3. 21B + 21A = -2B - 20A (SIMPLIFY DOWN)

4. A + B + C = 21 IF A IS EQUAL TO 7 AND B IS EQUAL TO 10, WHAT IS C?

FOR THE LAST QUESTION, X=57

3X + 2X = 285 true or false

Im bored...what the hell...
1. 49
2. 98
3. 41A = -23B or A = -23/41
4. C = 4

Lets kick it up a knotch...
dsin(t)/dt = ?

1 = 49

2 = 98

3 = noway ???? (It's been too long since I was at school)

4 C=4


I hope I haven't just made a fool out of myself laugh

1.49
2.98
3.?
4.c=4
5.285=285

. (5+2) x (5+2) = 49

2. 2(5+2) x (5+2) = 98

3. 21B + 21A = -2B - 20A (SIMPLIFY DOWN)

4. A + B + C = 21 IF A IS EQUAL TO 7 AND B IS EQUAL TO 10, WHAT IS C? 4

FOR THE LAST QUESTION, X=57

3X + 2X = 285

I'm not very good at algebra, so, here it is anyway. I just thought I would give it a try. Your making our brains work too hard this morning. laugh laugh

LMAO sorry about #3 I wrote it down wrong embarassed



1= 490
2= 98
3= forget about it, lol
4= c=4


And you all forgot to do number 5!!! laugh





And I never got into trig or calc, which is why this was entitled ALGEBRA

I feel less silly about not getting #3 now laugh

And was the point of #5 to work out the value of X? You gave us the answer! Am I missing something?

I'm pretty sure that it's cos(t). It might be -cos(t), though. I could never remember whether dsin(t)/dt or dcos(t)/dt inverts the sign. Either way, give or take a factor of -1, sin(t) and cos(t) are each other's derivative.

Let's change number one from (5+2) x (5+2)
into (5+2)(5+2)

NOW what is the answer?

Damn, I forgot what to do when there's no symbol between brackets.

And, yes, number 5 was true :tongue:

(5+2)(5+2)=
(25+10)(10+4)=
(35)(14)=
490

I hate math!! I stayed up for 3 days teaching myself college math for the ASVAB, failed the math but passed auto shop info..go figure, thanks dad. I would rather have a root canal without Novicane!! Hate it, Hate it, Hate it.....noway
Just give me the basics and I will wing the rest.........
