Anyone good with maths? need a lil help...please

[chrismiller]

http://i25.tinypic.com/2m34wgo.jpg

anyone know the answer, unsure about (a) and absolute values. Help would be appreciated...props

[macki123pi.]

B....

[Shortblackboy]

yeah B

[gming]

B....

[Porky]

D....

[SKID17]

B DUMB HOE....CAN'T GET A NEGATIVE VALUE INSIDE AN ABSOLUTE VALUE...3/0 IS UNDEFINED...TOO LAZY TO DO THE OTHER WRONG ONES

[Porky]

damn u guys are dumb :smh:


D

[RichBLACKIII]

B bitch !!!

[macki123pi.]

you must be in 10th or 11th grade I hope :(

[Weezy_Baby_BRAZIL]

but why D is wrong?

[ЯΣδŦŁΣδδ]

B...,

[Porky]

D is Right...B is wrong

[I Run Dis Shit]

a) any absolute value is positive so it cant b -3

b) -3 x -3 = 9 Correct

c) 3/0=no solution

d) fuck if i know

e) anything to the 0th power=1

[macki123pi.]

oops wrong one

[ЯΣδŦŁΣδδ]

lol @ ppl saying d

[Tha Root Of Evil]

yea B....Neg x Neg = Pos...

[SKID17]

(3sqrt(2))^3 = 54sqrt(2)

[2800 Block]

2^0 = 1


its fucking BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBb

[I Run Dis Shit]

wait porky is right it must be d


cuz its 3x3, then u add the - so its -9 :hmmm:

[bigslim24]

never knew there was more than one "math"??? :hmmm:

[Porky]

B is -9 you dumb hoes

[SKID17]

2^0 IS E ASSHOLES

[SiZZURP]

sorry math is my worst subject

[SKID17]

SMH NUMBERS WITH EVEN POWERS ARE ALWAYS POSITIVE....PORKY IS THE ONLY DUMB ASIAN IN TEXAS

[Weezy_Baby_BRAZIL]

wait porky is right it must be d


cuz its 3x3, then u add the - so its -9 :hmmm:

no -3 x -3 it's 9

two - = equal to +

i guess both are right..

[RichBLACKIII]

B is -9 you dumb hoes

Oh yeah Asians are good at math aren't they :hmmm:

[Weezy_Baby_BRAZIL]

SMH NUMBERS WITH EVEN POWERS ARE ALWAYS POSITIVE....PORKY IS THE ONLY DUMB ASIAN IN TEXAS

exactly

[Porky]

SMH NUMBERS WITH EVEN POWERS ARE ALWAYS POSITIVE....PORKY IS THE ONLY DUMB ASIAN IN TEXAS
If it's (-3)^2 then it's 9 but the problem says -3^2 so you do the power first so 3x3=9 and 9 times - = -9

[macki123pi.]

B is -9 you dumb hoes

he's right...:( we failed
2^0 IS E ASSHOLES

no, it equals 1

[2800 Block]

SMH NUMBERS WITH EVEN POWERS ARE ALWAYS POSITIVE....PORKY IS THE ONLY DUMB ASIAN IN TEXAS

hes the only dumb asian .. period.. and hes the only asian that sucks at video games and cheats on em :smh:

[I Run Dis Shit]

no -3 x -3 it's 9

two - = equal to +

i guess both are right..

no

there's no brackets


so ur just squaring the 3, not -3


if it was (-3)^2 then it would be 9


but since there is no brackets, it is -9 :sips:

[Weezy_Baby_BRAZIL]

If it's (-3)^2 then it's 9 but the problem says -3^2 so you do the power first so 3x3=9 and 9 times - = -9

hmmm yeah you prove me wrong :(

[macki123pi.]

If it's (-3)^2 then it's 9 but the problem says -3^2 so you do the power first so 3x3=9 and 9 times - = -9

yeah, I remember that in college algebra. :(

[gming]

fuck i didnt read the problem right :smh: The answer is D, like porky said....

[Porky]

:smh: @ saying it's B :laugh: Ethered

[macki123pi.]

hes the only dumb asian .. period.. and hes the only asian that sucks at video games and cheats on em :smh:

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say :ban:

[SKID17]

he's right...:( we failed


no, it equals 1


2^0 IS ANSWER CHOICE E ,DUDD...

[macki123pi.]

you must be in 10th or 11th grade I hope :(

<<<< feels dumb.

[Weezy_Baby_BRAZIL]

one of the best threads by the way :laugh:

[SKID17]

MEH OK IT IS -9

[Tha Root Of Evil]

*bites tongue*

[GoodFeLLa07]

lol, that was easy.

[2800 Block]

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say :ban:

play me pool :shifty:

[macki123pi.]

MEH OK IT IS -9

:(....:hug:

[gming]

this thread got ppl thinkin again :laugh:

[macki123pi.]

play me pool :shifty:

meet me at the levee, it's going down

[..M0N$T3R..]

:laugh: woow ur a retarded :smh:

[nineoneone]

b/////////////////

[macki123pi.]

lmao @ people still saying B

[SKID17]

BUT THEY DIDN'T SIMPLIFY D DOWN ENOUGH...SO THEY GAVE YOU A TRICK QUESTION

[gming]

lmao @ people still saying B

co-sign

[Weezy_Baby_BRAZIL]

A = 7
B = -9
C = ...
D = Right One
3 = 1

[the boogeyman]

what a butthole u r

[2800 Block]

dman firefox dont wanna start pool :( , i guessyou blessed today :(

[Tha Root Of Evil]

:smh: @ Asians ownin Math...

[macki123pi.]

Anyone good with maths

maths?

[Pimpmeister]

yea, it's D, although it would be better if it was further reduced

but since the other ones are obviously wrong, then you have to go with D

good job porky :smoking:

[chrismiller]

will prop everyone when i get back from uni.

Its a question from Stats101, and yeah am clueless about math now...last time i did the shit was 2 years ago.

Thanks again to everyone who answered.

Peace

[Ŧ®ǐǐ£££ααα]

porky is asian, so therefore hes not wrong

THROW SOME Ds ON THAT BITCH

[anaheim1503]

its B, u can't have a negative absolute value

[guamboi30]

yeah it's D

a) |-3| = 3 ; wrong
b) it would have to be (-3)^2; since there is no parenthesis around the -3, it's wrong
c)anything divided by zero is undefined
d) CORRECT ANSWER because everything in the parenthesis is cubed and is exactly equaled to the right side
e) anything to the zero power is equaled to 1

[mpls06]

D. If you say B..wow B = -(3)^2 = -9

[mr.me2]

B
:zzz:
easy shit

[mr.me2]

brackets have to be put in
-3^2 = 9

-(3^2) = -9

[Decompozed]

only D is correct

[piff blower]

just good at countin my chesse

[DJ Squeeky]

it aint B

[masta y]

B is -9 you dumb hoes

yes, if you type it in your calculator its -9

but if you use your brain it is 9

B and D are both right

[Shaolin Monk]

i hope youre not in college

you're probably in the slow math class with wcg

[meganaxx]

B.... - x - = positive...basic algebra

[kingjc919]

its D

[Tha Root Of Evil]

B.... - x - = positive...basic algebra

:smh: -3 x -3 is SOO different to -3sq'd

[Tha Root Of Evil]

never knew there was more than one "math"??? :hmmm:

:laugh::smh: *dies*

[mr.me2]

lets just leave it as the question isn't expressed properly

[Jowy]

its B

[Porky]

:smh: @ ppl STILL saying it's B :smh:

No Child Left Behind failed :(

[macki123pi.]

lmao.

[$tunnafresh]

D u idiots...in order for -3^2 to equal 9 it would have to be in parenthesis (-3)^2=9 not -3^2=9

[$tunnafresh]

yes, if you type it in your calculator its -9

but if you use your brain it is 9

B and D are both right

no u idiot -3^2 means ur only squaring the 3 so 3^2=9 and then u add the negative to make it -9

[MKDaMan1818]

Its D

[G-MONEY]

not sayin b is wrong, but i worked d out & they both = the same #

[¤TuRbؤ]

I think it's D.

[AgenT_Zer0]

B... :laugh:

[AgenT_Zer0]

damn u guys are dumb :smh:


D

lmao @ you...

how you gonna be bad at math :smh:


*reps 92% on report card on trig this marking period* :smoking:

[SKID17]

lmao @ you...

how you gonna be bad at math :smh:


*reps 92% on report card on trig this marking period* :smoking:

TRIG AIN'T SHIT.:supersad:

[AgenT_Zer0]

yeah it's D

a) |-3| = 3 ; wrong
b) it would have to be (-3)^2; since there is no parenthesis around the -3, it's wrong
c)anything divided by zero is undefined
d) CORRECT ANSWER because everything in the parenthesis is cubed and is exactly equaled to the right side
e) anything to the zero power is equaled to 1

it was -3^2 = 9.... for what you said about b. you just take the simple order of operations.. you dont need to put parenthesis around -3^2 in -3^2=9 because they're stating 2 sides that are equal, they arent actually doing the problem right then and there they just have it set up for you..

D. If you say B..wow B = -(3)^2 = -9

lmao stupid do it on a calculator.. dont forget to put parenthesis around the -3 dont just type in -3^2 cuz it'll do 3^2 then put the - at the end :laugh: stupid ass

[AgenT_Zer0]

TRIG AIN'T SHIT.:supersad:

it is if you're in 11th grade :woot:


regular 11th graders at my school district are in algebra 2 :supersad:

i'm smart :woot:

[AgenT_Zer0]

wow does the right end of this skin get cut off for anyone else?

[Pimpmeister]

why do people still say it's B?

:smh:

[SKID17]

it is if you're in 11th grade :woot:

[AgenT_Zer0]

:smh:

cuz you're stupid and think it's something else :laugh:

lmao @ the people saying it's D and they dont even know what 3 Sq.Root of 2 is...

....I WAS A BEAST IN PRE-CAL THAT TIME...

word? :shock: you gotta be a senior and in the next class up to take precalc at my school :(

i'm not takin it next year though cuz i fuckin hate math even though i'm so good at it :(

[macki123pi.]

cuz you're stupid and think it's something else :laugh:

fuck outta here ass clown

you showin off your trig grade when this shit has nothing to do with that shit

have you forgotten order of operations?

Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally, to make it easier for you

-9^2 is a question i see in people's tests in pre-algebra, and you can't even figure that out?

:smh: how they let you pass into trig

now you're changin the problem around

lmfao

are you blind also? there are no parentheses in that problem, if there were, then it would be completely different

[AgenT_Zer0]

WELL WHAT DOES THAT SAY ABOUT YOUR SCHOOL DISTRICT???....STEP YER GAME UP...

it's full of a bunch of stupid white people (about 98% of the school is white btw) that all get high everyday at school, before school, etc etc and fail all their classes...

thats what it says about my school

*doesnt smoke though* :hmmm:

[Pimpmeister]

HMM WELL, TO BURST YOUR BUBBLE...YOU HAVE THE PYTHAGORAS THEOREM...WHICH DEALS WITH NEGATIVE AND POSITIVE EXPONENTIALS...
uh, no

in these problems you dont need to know any trig to be able to solve them

so you and pythagoras can stfu

[AgenT_Zer0]

now you're changin the problem around

lmfao

are you blind also? there are no parentheses in that problem, if there were, then it would be completely different

no stupid its simple order of operations that -3^2 = 9

only way one of us is gonna concede being wrong (you) is when he posts the grade on here of which one was right..

grab yourself a TI-83 and see what you get

and dont try to sneak any parentheses in there

if you wanna be ignorant, then so be it, i tried to save you

[SKID17]

uh, no

in these problems you dont need to know any trig to be able to solve them

so you and pythagoras can stfu

I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT THE PROBLEM...IN GENERAL YOU NEED SOME SORT OF "EXPONENTIAL" SKILL WHEN DOING TRIG...YOU REVERSED MY POINT...LOL..SILLY GOOSE.

[BeUnliMit3d]

its B you guys

[AgenT_Zer0]

-3^2 = 9 is how the problem looks on the paper, but to solve it via a calculator, you have to put it into the calculator as (-3)^2 so the calculator recognizes that you want to square the -3 first and not just 3 then put the - at the end..

[Pimpmeister]

I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT THE PROBLEM...IN GENERAL YOU NEED SOME SORT OF "EXPONENTIAL" SKILL WHEN DOING TRIG...YOU REVERSED MY POINT...LOL..SILLY GOOSE.
i reversed your point because you reversed mine, lol

whatchu talkin bout willis :hmmm:

and nah i'm straight with not getting high..

U A BACKPACKER?

[AgenT_Zer0]

grab yourself a TI-83 and see what you get

if you wanna be ignorant, then so be it, i tried to save you

*holds up TI-84 Plus*

poor motherfucker can only afford a TI-83 :smh:

[SKID17]

i reversed your point because you reversed mine, lol

WELL WE'RE BACK WHERE WE STARTED...START OVER?

Exponents and Negative numbers

Subject: Exponents and negative numbers

Dear Dr. Math,

In different texts about this same question, I can find two different
answers. The solution to: (-3)squared = 9. But when -3 is squared
(without the brackets), one source may say 9 while another source
says -9.

In context, the -3 squared used in sequence will always be -9; why
would the exponent apply to the negative sign unless it is enclosed
by a sign of grouping? In short, why wouldn't the answer to -3
squared, standing alone and without parenthesis or brackets, be -9?

Thanks very much.

Sincerely,
Marvin E. Crim

Hi Marvin -

After a lengthy discussion among the Drs. Math to make sure we had our
facts straight, I think we have an answer for you.

If you ever see the expression -3^2 evaluated as 9, that's incorrect.
The exponentiation is always done before the negation unless there are
parentheses there to indicate otherwise.

However, there are some contexts in which it _looks_ like texts are
saying that -3^2 = 9, but a closer inspection will either reveal a
subtle interpretation or a misunderstanding. For instance, what is the
difference between the following statements:

"If I take negative three and square it, I get nine."
"If I square negative three, I get nine."
"If I evaluate negative three squared, I get negative nine."
"If I take the opposite of three squared, I get negative nine."

All of the above statements are correct. The reason some of them
end up with 9 as the answer and some end up with -9 is that some of
the statements have groupings implied in their phrasing. The first
two statements translate into algebraic notation as (-3)^2 = 9, the
third statement translates to -3^2 = -9, and the fourth statement
translates to -(3^2) = -9.

So the confusion here is not really about mathematical notation, it's
about how to translate English into mathematical notation. Either
that, or your textbook is incorrect!

I hope we've cleared up some confusion. The bottom line is that
-a^b is always evaluated as -(a^b).

lmao @ you googling this shit

look all i know is that if i see -3^2 on a test i'm puttin 9 and i get it right... so you can blame my teachers if i'm wrong :laugh:

CAN WE CLOSE THIS WACK THREAD NOW...I THINK PORKY'S IDEA ON STUDENT SECTION IS SLOWLY FAILING...DUMB NIGGAS AND SMART NIGGAS SOLVING PROBLEMS FOR DUMB NIGGA AND SMART NIGGAS CANNOT DISSOLVE

but there are none, for a reason: to fool people who will just rush to an answer

there are parenthesis surrounding it in D because there's a NEGATIVE fraction... they put it in parenthesis to not confuse order of operations with a complex problem like that..

ITS -2*sqrt(2)/27

[BeUnliMit3d]

that man's wrong ^

can you please elaborate how im wrong. i MIGHTve done a step wrong but please tell me so i can learn :)

[BeUnliMit3d]

WRONG SAUCE:
ITS -2*sqrt(2)/27

where? haha damn i guess i did mess up

[AgenT_Zer0]

how is 3sqroot2 x3 = 9sqroot4

[SKID17]

3sqrt2 * 3= 9sqrt2

[BeUnliMit3d]

how is 3sqroot2 x3 = 9sqroot4

what step? youre confusing me now haha:smoking:

[SKID17]

LOL HE THOUGH SQUARE OF 2 SQUARED = SQUARE ROOT OF 4....WHOOOADDEYY IM TATTOOED N BARRED UUUPPP!!!!

[AgenT_Zer0]

3sqrt2 * 3= 9sqrt2

3sqroot2 = sqroot8 isnt it?

thats the fuckin thing i hate the most about algebra.. how they make the sq roots that dont figure out to a solid integer into fucked up numbers..

[SKID17]

WHEN MULTIPLYING AN INTEGER WITH A SQUARE ROOT TIMES AN INTEGER ONLY, YOU NEVER INVOLVE THAT SQUARE ROOT UNLESS IT CAN BE ROOTED TO A REAL NUMBER.

are you guys talking about

first one... first of all you cant even multiply those 2 like that and 2nd of all

sqroot2 X sqroot2 = 2...


who taught you algebra :smh:

[SSGT05]

The first one

[BeUnliMit3d]

first one... first of all you cant even multiply those 2 like that and 2nd of all

sqroot2 X sqroot2 = 2...


who taught you algebra :smh:

lol i know sqroot2 x sqroot2 = sqroot4 which simplifies down to 2 and then in the next step i used 9xthe simplified 2 which is 18

[macki123pi.]

LOL HE THOUGH SQUARE OF 2 SQUARED = SQUARE ROOT OF 4....WHOOOADDEYY IM TATTOOED N BARRED UUUPPP!!!!

LMAO, that birdman video was priceless.

[AgenT_Zer0]

lol i know sqroot2 x sqroot2 = sqroot4 which simplifies down to 2 and then in the next step i used 9xthe simplified 2 which is 18

ok i'm glad you know sqroot2 X sqroot2 = 2 :laugh:

you cant multiply those 2 numbers like that though..

[BeUnliMit3d]

ok i'm glad you know sqroot2 X sqroot2 = 2 :laugh:

you cant multiply those 2 numbers like that though..

of course you can. you can multiply radicands(the 2 in this case) and radicals together

edit://

an example would be sqroot9 x sqroot9 = 9

[AgenT_Zer0]

no i mean you cant multiply them cuz they are a number with a radicant times a number with a radicant

[I Run Dis Shit]

no i mean you cant multiply them cuz they are a number with a radicant times a number with a radicant

yes u def can


u multiply whats outside the radical with the other number thats outside the radical, then u multiply the number inside the radical with the other number inside the other radical

[AgenT_Zer0]

yes u def can


u multiply whats outside the radical with the other number thats outside the radical, then u multiply the number inside the radical with the other number inside the other radical

:hmmm: idk thats the only thing i struggle with is those fucked up numbers n radicants that you get from changing sqroots of random numbers into them

i mean i kno you can multiply them but i know that cant be right..

[SKID17]

LMAO, that birdman video was priceless.

MOST GUYS ON HERE DON'T THINK ITS FUNNY...BUT IN REAL LIFE BIRDMAN ACTUALLY ACTS LIKE THAT...SOME MOFO'S JSUT DON'T KNOW...POSERS..

[I Run Dis Shit]

u can do it either way look, it works out either way

[BeUnliMit3d]

^^word

i took this shit only like 2 years ago so im still fresh

[SKID17]

http://i30.tinypic.com/wlsi9j.jpg

TURN THAT ONE INTO A TWO AND SEE WHAT YOU GET....*WAITS ONE SECOND*...POINT PROVEN...THAT'S A TOTALLY DIFFERENT PROBLEM

[I Run Dis Shit]

naw mayne, it still comes out the same...

http://i29.tinypic.com/ajwa2u.jpg

[BeUnliMit3d]

so in conclusion:

B is the right answer

[I Run Dis Shit]

so in conclusion:

B is the right answer

:laugh:

huh? its d. :laugh:

[SKID17]

naw mayne, it still comes out the same...

http://i29.tinypic.com/ajwa2u.jpg


AWWWWWW.......:supersad:

[SKID17]

LOL THAT NIGGA ANSWER STILL WRONG

[AgenT_Zer0]

we've known B to be the right answer its just people think just cuz they didnt put parenthesis around the -3 in the equation that they didnt want you to square -3 :smh:

[BeUnliMit3d]

:laugh:

huh? its d. :laugh:

what? lol i just worked it out and showed yall.

:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

YOU'RE A BAD BILLY

[AgenT_Zer0]

if its one thing we've learned here today it's that kimbo slice > all

[I Run Dis Shit]

its fucking d.


its not even that hard at all.



they HAVE to put parenthesis around b for it to be negative. thats the way math works.


http://i25.tinypic.com/2nrlok7.jpg



its not even hard at all, i learned this shit in like 9th grade :laugh: its basic algebra....

[AgenT_Zer0]

i didnt know that sqroot2 X sqroot2 X sqroot2 Xsqroot2 = sqroot8 since

sqroot2 X sqroot2 = 2 so that X 2 = 4...

[BeUnliMit3d]

OMGGGGG this question blows. i just saw that they didnt simplify it :mad: thats what got me....i guess it is D then. if i had this question i would argue it

[I Run Dis Shit]

here man look at it like this


the square root of 2 is 1.4142135623730950488016887242097


take that times itself, then take the product and times it again by that.

you get 2.8284271247461900976033774484152


then take the square root of 8, and you get 2.8284271247461900976033774484194



its elementary watson :sips:

[I Run Dis Shit]

sqroot2 X sqroot2 = 2 so that X 2 = 4...

no, sq root of 2 x square root of 2 does equal 2


but u take 2 times the SQUARE ROOT of 2, not just 2, which equals
2.828427124746190097603377448418

[Porky]

u dumb retard still arguing over this shit :smh: I ethered everyone like 30 hrs ago

[I Run Dis Shit]

:supersad: :supersad:

did that shit with windows calculator i didnt type it out lol

[rone]

lmaoooooooo at the people in this thread saying -3 squared is 9

its -9 cmon people

now if the -3 was in parenthesis, then the answer would be 9

[Reloaded47]

Answer is D, heres y B is not
B is not true because -3^2=-9
but (-3)^2=9

[doeboy540]

imma just say B cuz everyone else said B.. HAHA!! IM RIGHT!!!

[GT-R]

D lol

B isnt right because theres no bracket...

[jameswitalldadames]

-2^3 is -8 and 3^3 is 27 n 2^2 is 8 so it is D!! ppl r dumb trust me on this one math n science is what im excellent at not english or history that shit is boring

[m1z_h34d7urn3r]

B would be right if -3 was in brackets.. however the right answer is D. be careful, math can try to trick you

[meganaxx]

yes, if you type it in your calculator its -9

but if you use your brain it is 9

B and D are both right

thank u, someone with a brain!!! Didn't your teacher tell u guys about parenthesis?

[vmoney7]

answer is d
:smh: @ all the college kids who said b and e
