February 13, 200619 yr rifk I always thought those classes were trivial and fucking stupider than shit. I finished algebra in the 7th grade, so i'd hope you're not in highcshool yet mp, otherwise that'd be pathetic. /sarcasm
February 13, 200619 yr math reminds me of my hot math teacher i used to have in high school.....therefor i was jerking off to this thread the whole time everybody was putting in there 2 cents thankyou <3
February 13, 200619 yr omfgk']absolute value can be easily defined as the distance away from zero that a number is; on a number line' date=' -1 and 1 are both one space away from zero, and thus they have the same absolute value.[/quote'] God damn, I was just going to post that as soon as I finished reading this thread. omfgk. You beat me to it. <3
February 13, 200619 yr NWA']The best part of this thread is the people that think DKay and omfgk are actually writing out math. Is there a problem NWA ? Does that seem too unfamiliar from the math lessons you've been taking in 3rd grade in chinaland ?
February 13, 200619 yr DKay']Is there a problem NWA ? Does that seem too unfamiliar from the math lessons you've been taking in 3rd grade in chinaland ? Perhaps they don't teach you how to write legibly in France? OUI OUI OUI JA JA JA JA?
February 13, 200619 yr actually it can be proved that 1 = -1 (i can do it) this is most definately evil math added: therefore, the universe does not make sense and noone should try to understand it http://img49.imageshack.us/img49/7908/unbenannt5sl.jpg
February 13, 200619 yr http://img49.imageshack.us/img49/7908/unbenannt5sl.jpg you're an idiot. what you did isn't logical at all, and took much less thought than mine. 1 = -1 is obviously not true (which any dipshit knows) and you just verified it. you're saying that everything i did was correct until the 3RD TO LAST STEP ? WRONG YOU FAIL MATH go back to preschool
February 16, 200619 yr NWA']lol zodiac fails to grasp the idea behind absolute value You fail to grasp the ideo behind reading. I know that Absolute value can be defined as the distance between n and 0. What I was stating is that this distance is NOT equal to their ACTUAL VALUE (technically it is in terms of a numberline, but in other applications where calibration comes into play, it isn't). I was stating that absolute value can only determine whether to numbers are "symetrical" so to say, rather than having the same ACTUAL VALUE. If you get what I'm saying.

I was stating that absolute value can only determine whether to numbers are "symetrical" so to say, rather than having the same ACTUAL VALUE. If you get what I'm saying. No, you fail to grasp the idea behind absolute value. You can't say that when someone said THIS: "1 can equal -1 if you do so: 1 = |-1|" and you said NOT TRUE and claim to understand absolute value at the same time. You further go on to say some stupid shit like this: "when speaking in terms of absolute values, the total equasion has to be in terms of absolute value. ABSOLUTE VALUE is a DIFFERENT VALUE from the number itself. " This is patently FALSE. What you're saying here is that you have an entirely new system of variables (we'll call it the DUMB ABSOLUTE VALUE SYSTEM) that can be related to the actual number line but cannot ever be expressed in numbers. What good is this? No, the system of absolute values is only worthwhile if it can be related to the real numberline via symmetrical origin-point distance. To define it as a "different value" from the real, positive distance (which is what gives you the actual number, 6 is only 6 because it's 6 units from 0) is indicative of shoddy teaching and a failure to grasp what's really happening when you say something equals a number. Now, onto your idea of calibration. When you calibrate you advance the origin in an i,j,k fashion. You then remeasure. This doesn't change any measurement, it just changes the coordinate system. If you measure a length of wood and then "calibrate" the system to halfway into the middle of that wood you will get half the distance from the origin to the end of the wood but the length of wood has not decreased. The concept here is that while the distance from the origin may change, the overall distances do not. This effects abolute value not at all since absolute value is distance from origin. So, conclusion: get off the drugs.

February 16, 200619 yr DKay']Wrong. We do math a different way where I come from (Asia). It's known as the correct way, maybe you've heard of it?
February 16, 200619 yr I was just fucking with you asian boy and our ways are just as correct as yours. otherwise it wouldnt give out the right answer would it
February 16, 200619 yr DKay']I was just fucking with you asian boy and our ways are just as correct as yours. otherwise it wouldnt give out the right answer would it It would probably give you a French answer. Which is wrong. Just like french fries. FREEDOM FRIES FOREVER
February 16, 200619 yr NWA']It would probably give you a French answer. Which is wrong. Just like french fries. FREEDOM FRIES FOREVER yeah but if china men are sooo smart why when they make turns and have there turn signals on, they forget and leave them on for the next 3 miles until they get off on another exit.....HUH WHY???
February 16, 200619 yr yeah but if china men are sooo smart why when they make turns and have there turn signals on, they forget and leave them on for the next 3 miles until they get off on another exit.....HUH WHY??? Our machines are better in Asia. They turn off automatically when your brain initiates the series of synapses which tells the car that the turn is completed.

February 16, 200619 yr Instead of all the confusing math, just listen to some S.O.A.D..... they'll tweak your brain just as good.
February 16, 200619 yr Instead of all the confusing math, just listen to some S.O.A.D..... they'll tweak your brain just as good. Hi again. When will you realize that S.O.A.D SUCKS AND IS NOW A CONFORMITY BAND. Hi?
February 16, 200619 yr wow fucking losers who gives a shit Apparantly you for replying to this thread, Kthx?----sdf
