I had a go at the question about the quadratic equation, I hope the question is still current.

t^2 - 4t + 7 = 0

You'll quickly notice that this parabola has no real solutions: the solutions are therefore two different imaginary solutions.

t = 2 + i*1.73205 V t = 2 - i*1.73205

(V = or)

yep! :Dlol

AK 14 years ago

Weird, I used the quadratic formula....
Oops, it's x=-10 and x=5!!!!

Hexicube 14 years ago

AK thay're both wrong...(2*-1 is not -50 XD)
martin that's the right answer :D

MartinfraKongsberg 14 years ago

You asked: "What is x?". I gave you the answer. Now give me the points! I don't care about your eggs. X is a letter! GIVE ME MY POINTS!!!

OK! I figured it out! He bought 7 eggs.

@AK:

4x-7=48
x= 55/4

AK 14 years ago

Allyally:WRONG!!!
MARC2008:Can I get the points?;) (x-2)(x+1)/ x=2, x=-1
Puzzle:1 egg

Hexicube 14 years ago

no thats wrong
on toll bridge 1 he wouldbe left with 4.5
then 1.75
then 0.375

MartinfraKongsberg 14 years ago

X is the twenty-fourth letter in the basic modern Latin alphabet.

Hexicube 14 years ago

um wait he only game 1 possibility...
[edit] difficulty: medium [3P]
factorise:
x^2-5x+50
[edit] I mean x^2+5x-50
[re-edit] also here's a puzzle(hard, 7P):
there's a house and a market with 3 toll bridges between them
a man goes to the market, he doesn't have to pay to cross the bridges on the way there. he buys x eggs, but has no money left so to pay the toll bridge fee he pays half the eggs in his basket plus half an egg. he has no eggs after rossing them all. what is x?

allyally 14 years ago

Actually I am,
=10.25 or 10 1/4 or 41/4

AK 14 years ago

Okay, yeah. You're not into imaginary numbers yet... (Algebra 2,Chapter 7)
New question(4p);
4x-7=48
x=
Keep in a fraction!

allyally 14 years ago

QUESTION CANT WORK! It would need to be t^2 - 4t - 7 = 0
At least then I know its 5.3662479...

Im 14 years ago

t=some number between -3 and 388829
I think I'm more accurate.

MartinfraKongsberg 14 years ago

I found the answer floating around on the net. It's a different math question, but the answer is the same:

$The Solution$

How many points do I get?

AK 14 years ago

Sure! If you want to! Just don't make it too hard! I will lower my difficulty, too.

Hexicube 14 years ago

dont have scientific calculator...:_
I also realised I work at 2-3 times the speed of my class XD
[edit] may I ask a question?

AK 14 years ago

Good job, Martinfra!
Next:(6p)
t^2-4t+7=0
Use the quadratic formula and solve for both values of t!

MartinfraKongsberg 14 years ago

14
That's the answer
...

AK 14 years ago

Anyone know 56-42? I have to go to bed, so i'll check who answers it in the morning.

AK 14 years ago

Hahaha, you got it right! Nice job!
THERE ARE NO JOKERS IN A 52-CARD DECK!
Next question(2p):
56-42

MartinfraKongsberg 14 years ago

The probability is 100%!

AK 14 years ago

Actually, it's just 1982107/95302.
Um... Points to both MARC and Allyally....
WORD PROBLEM!!!!!!!!(15p):
You take a standard 52 card deck. You want to play a game called "4 Aces and 2 Jokers". You put all 52 of the cards face down on the table. What is the probability that you will pick all 4 aces before you pick 1 joker???

Hexicube 14 years ago

its 20.798167929319426664707980944786

AK 14 years ago

Um...
You actually don't need it in simplest form.

allyally 14 years ago

Er, 20.79816793?

Hexicube 14 years ago

x is about 21?

AK 14 years ago

Next2p:
95302x=1982107
x=

Hexicube 14 years ago

lol x=3 ftw

AK 14 years ago

Next(4p):

Dragon: A gun with a high-fire rate and the ability to turn into a self-destruct mine that you can throw.

Reaper: Very weak, but shoots at about 90 bullets per second.

Grenade: Arm, then throw. Can also be changed to "Pinball Mode", in which it bounces off walls until it hits a person.

AR34: Like the Avenger, it is super powerful. However, it can only shoot in short bursts.

SuperDragon: Like the Dragon, except can turn into a grenade launcher.

Timed Mine: Tick...tick...tick... BOOM!!!

Gattling Goliath: Only availiable for creators of groups. Goliath with gattling guns on left and right sides. Faster than normal.

M1A1 Abrams: A classic tank. Medium strength, medium speed.

M2 Hydra: Small tank, but with 2 machine guns. Pretty fast, not as fast as Rattler.

FLP-E: Strong main gun, but poor shield. HOWEVER, this tank can flip on all sides to avoid any bullets or ammo.

Hornet: Run. This tank can shoot missles. Fast, but weak defenses.

Inferno
Marksman: Flamethrower for a main gun. Another weak defensive tank.

Rhino: Front is nearly invinsible, can take up to 10 shots from the Goliath. Its back is weak however. Fast-moving.

Anti-Aircraft guns: Able to shoot all aircraft down. Also used to sink ships. Slow-moving.
