-25/27*54 and it's a same as: -25 ---- 54 27 and that's you have to type in instacalc. But(!!!) if you type there -25/(27*54) it would be -25 ---- 27*54 and it would be -25/(27*x) but NOT -25/27x Haven't you learn this in the 1st or 2dn degree of preliminary school? What's a funny thread :) |

Yes, you are absolutely correct :winkwink: because you changed the parentheses in the quoted post |

1) -25/27x = -25 / 27 * x
2) -25/(27x) = -25 / (27 * x) Those are different ones. Because (1) <> (2). |
Simple people !
-25/27x + 8/9 = 1/3 ( original question )
-25/27x + 24/27 = 1/3 ( find a common denominator in this case 27 ) -1/27x = 1/3 ( do a simple subtraction of -25 + 24 = -1 ) -1/27 / 3/1 = x ( separate the x from the equation... -1/1 = -1 and 27/3 = 9 ) -1/9 = x ( now x has been solved ! ) -1/27 * -1/9 = 1/3 ( now the -1/27x is like saying -1/27 * x or -1/27 * -1/9 ) -1/27 / 9/-1 = 1/3 ( invert to cancel out... -1/-1 = 1 and 27/9 = 3 ) 1/3 = 1/3 . |

But, the part I qouted is quite different from your argument in this thread. Ok, I have to watch my postcount. I will take a break now. |
x = 3/5 :2 cents:

1 + (0+i1) = 2 which is wrong because the result is also a complex value = 1+i1 <> 2 (since a complex presentation of 2 = 2+i0) Someone would definitely try to say that 1+i1 = 2, but I will insist that 1+i1 <> 2+i0 and this thread will get at least 3 new pages :winkwink: j/k :) |

0.999 = 1. Hope that helps.

Just an FYI, about an hour after I posed the question it was revealed to me that the equation above is the actual question. For those using decimals, not applicable . . the test is purely fractions, not decimals. Thanks though. |

Basic math gets mad views. Start a thread attempting to discuss google eigenvalues for determinging pagerank, though, and you'll get 8 views, and no replies. :1orglaugh |

But I'm thinking that's gotta be a "for example" kinda thing... there's gotta be more than 3 columns in the matrix... maybe 3 columns of columns... of columns... |
Jesus.. A rudimentary calloc() in PHP completed with bitshifting.
