Re: [Math4u] Re: 26 - 14 : 2 x 3 + 4² = ?

A colon (:) has traditionally been used for ratio.

Brian is right.

It seems like everyone has a different definition of ":"

When you say, "everyone knows" you are implying I am a nobody. When I was in first or second grade, they taught us the story of "The Emperor's Clothes" which has an enormous impact on me.

I believe ":" means ratio such as in similar triangles a:b:c equals d:e:f. I can back this up with the following websites

http://www.pen. k12.va.us/ Div/Winchester/ jhhs/math/ facts/symbol. html

http://www.roma. unisa.edu. au/07305/ symbols.htm# Division

Error! Hyperlink reference not valid.

If you cannot find any websites to justify your definition, then you are not talking a universal language. It sounds narrow minded, but I would like everyone to speak the same language.

Let's say you define the semi colon to mean the horizontal line. In your equation, I wold not know if you wrote this super fraction first and then added the b term later or if the b term is part of the semicolon expression. I think

are using 3 different definitions for the semi colon which are not found on the reputable websites and which I haven't heard of. The only way to change my mind is to produce reputable websites with new definitions for the semi colon.

It is difficult not to believe what we were taught in elementary school. I was taught in elementary school that everyone in Denmark rides bicycles because Denmark is flat. When I got there, it wasn't flat and I didn't see many bicycles.

There is a big difference between the division symbol and the colon.

Let's take the quadradic equation as an example:

-b+ (the square root of b^2 -4ac):2a

we all know that even though this formula is one big fraction, all operations above and below the fraction are done before dividing.

What would happen written like this?

-b+ (the square root of b^2 -4ac)/2a

If I read / as a division symbol, I would complete all equations under the square root and then divide it by 2a before I complete the addition/subtractio n with the lonely b

[forwards4all] Computer Diagnosis,,,,,,

One day Bill complained to his friend that his elbow really hurt. His friend suggested that he go to a computer at the drug store that can diagnose anything quicker and cheaper than a doctor.
''Simply put in a sample of your urine and the computer will diagnose your problem and tell you what you can do about it. It only costs $10." Bill figured he had nothing to lose, so he filled a jar with a urine sample and went to the drug store. Finding the computer, he poured in the sample and deposited the $10. The computer started making some noise and various lights started flashing. After a brief pause out popped a small slip of paper on which was printed: "You have tennis elbow. Soak your arm in warm water. Avoid heavy lifting. It will be better in two weeks."

Later that evening while thinking how amazing this new technology was and how it would change medical science forever, he began to wonder if this machine could be fooled. He mixed together some tap water, a stool sample from his dog and urine samples from his wife and daughter. To top it off, he masturbated into the concoction. He went back to the drug store, located the machine, poured in the sample and deposited the $10. The computer again made the usual noise and printed out the following message:

"Your tap water is too hard. Get a water softener.. Your dog has worms. Get him vitamins. Your daughter is using cocaine. Put her in a rehabilitation clinic. Your wife is pregnant with twin girls. They aren't yours. Get a lawyer. And if you don't stop jerking off, your tennis elbow will never get better."

EXCERPTS FROM A CAT'S DAILY DIARY:

Day 183 of My Captivity: My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while I am forced to eat dry cereal. The only thing that keeps me going is the hope of escape, and the mild satisfaction I get from ruining the occasional piece of furniture.

Tomorrow I may eat another houseplant. Today my attempt to kill my captors by weaving around their feet while they were walking almost succeeded, must try this at the top of the stairs.

In an attempt to disgust and repulse these vile oppressors, I once again induced myself to vomit on their favorite chair, must try this on their bed.

Decapitated a mouse and brought them the headless body, in an attempt to make them aware of what I am capable of, and to try to strike fear into their hearts. They only cooed and condescended about what a good little cat I was. Hmmm, not working according to plan.

There was some sort of gathering of their accomplices. I was placed in solitary confinement throughout the event. However, I could hear the noise and smell the food. More importantly, I overheard that my confinement was due to my power of "allergies." Must learn what this is and how to use it to my advantage.

I am convinced the other captives are flunkies and maybe snitches. The dog is routinely released and seems more than happy to return. He is obviously a half-wit. The bird, on the other hand, has got to be an informant, and speaks with them regularly. I am certain he reports my every move. Due to his current placement in the metal room, his safety is assured. But I can wait, it is only a matter of time ...

:::|Sweet Jokes™ |::: Emergency!!!

Hi All,

Although this married couple enjoyed their luxury fishing boat together, it was the husband who was behind the wheel operating the boat. He was concerned about what might happen in an emergency.

So one day out on the lake he said to his wife, "Please take the wheel, dear. Pretend that I am having a heart attack. You must get the boat safely to shore."

So she drove the boat to shore. Later that evening, the wife walked into the living room where her husband was watching television.

She sat down next to him, switched the TV channel, and said to him, "Please go into the kitchen, dear. Pretend I'm having a heart attack. You must set the table, cook the dinner, and wash the dishes."

Enjoy
