I'm about to start my Alg II final, facepunch. Got any advice?
2+2=5 for very large values of 2.
Get off of facepunch and start revising.

I before e except after c. [editline]07:34AM[/editline] Wait thats not right.
[QUOTE=davidofmk771;22320193]I before e except after c. [editline]07:34AM[/editline] Wait thats not right.[/QUOTE] I'd say i is smaller than e, but i is imaginary, so equating it to a real 'size' seems relatively useless.
Good luck to you sir.
Inform us of your results promptly :dance:

[QUOTE=sltungle;22320343]And everyone knows that 'j' is actually joules :v:[/QUOTE] In that case it would be a capital "J" and come after the number, rather than before :downs:
[QUOTE=metallics;22320446]In that case it would be a capital "J" and come after the number, rather than before :downs:[/QUOTE] Isn't current a capital then, too? We've always written it as a capital, not lowercase.
[QUOTE=sltungle;22320282]I'd say i is smaller than e, but i is imaginary, so equating it to a real 'size' seems relatively useless.[/QUOTE] Well if you chart them on a graph of the complex number set and find the absolute value of them both, [i]e[/i] has the higher absolute value, so I suppose with that you could swing: [i]e[/i] > [i]i[/i]
[QUOTE=sltungle;22320467]Isn't current a capital then, too? We've always written it as a capital, not lowercase.[/QUOTE] I is current, usually the average over a long period, in the case of AC usually an RMS value, or sometimes the peak value for sinusoidal waves (if not stated it's safest to assume RMS), i is the instantaneous current (at dc I and i are interchangable since nothing is changing, i.e. the instantaneous value of current is the same as the average over a long period).

Now listen here you floozy; when you do algebra, you need more lesbian. The bitch police they live inside of my head..abdomen, and some dried fish.
Algebra 2 is Year 11 right?

a + a = 2a
[QUOTE=Luuper;22321474]Algebra 2 is Year 11 right?[/QUOTE] Yes it is. and I can't do it.
I have exams in a week. 7 exams. Last exams before uni. Someone make me revise.

[QUOTE=MakeR;22321703]Revise, or you will end up working in shop somewhere with low pay for the rest of your life.[/QUOTE] I already work in a shop with low pay. Well, not that low for a student. :buddy:

fuckfuckfuck Maths here I come
[QUOTE=Rasrap Smurf;22321521][img]http://i46.tinypic.com/ht5gz7.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] Made me lol pretty hard. Although, a thought crossed my mind. Could you not say 'i' is smaller than 'e' by reasoning that, when both numbers are squared (i^2 and e^2), given that neither number is in the domain (-1,1) (one of those IS in the domain [-1,1] though), the latter yields a larger result? Although, then again, -19^2 is larger than 7^2, and, unless we're going by absolute values, -19 is smaller than 7. However, even in the case of i^2 and e^2, going by absolute value AND the 'regular' value e^2 is bigger. I'm entirely certain that reasoning is probably not mathematically sound, but... better than not making any effort at all to make sense of it all.
How to show 2=1 with algebra a = b a^2 = ab a^2 - b^2 = ab - b^2 (a+b)(a-b) = b(a-b) (a+b) = b a + a = a 2a = a 2 = 1
