Assuming you're meant to be asking us to find the value of a you either mean...
-2a = -36

so a=18

or

a^1 + a^7 - a^10 = -36 which is outrageously negative. and not worth working out.

Okay here's one from Facebook (of all places. I know)

Why can't we devide things by 0?
Title: Re: Math help thread
Post by: Jellyfish on May 25, 2011, 02:31:23 am
Dividing by a number very close to zero gives you an astronomically huge number. You know that dividing a number by a fraction, say a/b, is the same as multiplying by b/a. So x divided by 1/10 is x * 10 = 10x. And x divided by 1/100 is 100x. And x divided by 1 / 100,000 is 100,000x. So as you divide by numbers closer and closer to zero, the result gets bigger and bigger.

So x divided by 1/10 is x * 10 = 10x. And x divided by 1/100 is 100x. And x divided by 1 / 100,000 is 100,000x. So as you divide by numbers closer and closer to zero, the result gets bigger and bigger.

If people can't understand this.

Let's say we want to devide 5 by 0.

5/0.1 = 50
5/0.01 500
5/0.0001=5000
5/0.00001=50000
5/0.000001=500000
5/0.0000001=5000000

The closer we get to 0, the higher the result is.. It's called infinity.

(http://oumathclub.files.wordpress.com/2010/07/infinity.gif)

Hence limit exists.

lim x->0 (5/0) = infinity (depends on how to approach 0 to say it's plus infinity or minus infinity; if you approach with values closer to 0 on the right, you get +oo and if you approach on the left you get -oo).

Hope you understand. :D

Aha, I see what you did there ;)

I was taught both BODMAS and BIDMAS, but BIDMAS always made more sense to me, as I was never actually told what the O stood for in BODMAS  :D

And yeah, I'd say 12 in that case, and it would work with the order of BIDMAS anyway  :redface:

Majoring in Mathematics? I'm in England, not America, and I'm not in university or w/e they say that  :trust:

In case you haven't noticed, I have admitted where I am wrong, so you can shove your book somewhere I can't see it.
My education is at a normal comprehensive school in the UK, so I can hardly be called a snob. I brought up my education at the beginning, so people could ask me questions if they wanted to, because I'm always there to help. I later brought it up because it was brought under question. Does that comply to your book, or are you narrow-minded enough not to have written anything like that in, as such?

Also Cofi the one I gave was supposed to be confusing because if you follow PEMDAS or BODMAS to the letter you will get the wrong answer. People don't know or forget that the DM and the AS are actually equivalent and that you read them left to right if written as such.

N(3A+1)=-3NB => 3A+1=-3B => 3(A+B)=-1

What you're doing isn't possible, since he never said that N3A + N3B + N = 0. He never gave an equation.

He just gave:
N3A + N3B + N

This is not an equation. However, this would be an equation:
N3A + N3B + N = 0

I need help with Physcis, it is an assignment regarding Kinetic energy;
Someone knows how to solve this? I tried using the formula Ek=mv^2/2
Also the speed has to be converted to m/s? If so then I guess 55/3.6=15.28m/s
Do I need to count the potential energy aswell?

A roller coaster trolley and its passengers have a mass 840 Kg. The trolley comes over the top of the first hill with a speed of 55km/h. The hill is 85.0 m above the ground. The trolley goes down the first hill and up the rest of the second hill 64.0 m above ground. Ignore the effects of frictional forces. What is the kinetic energy of the trolley at the top of the second hill?

Help  :(

a = situation on the top of hill #1
b = situation on the top of hill #2
v_a = 55 / 3.6 = 15.28 ms^-1
g = 9.81 ms^-2
h_a = 85.0 m
h_b = 64.0 m

Ignore frictional forces, means no loss of energy. So:
E_total,a = E_total,b
E_kin,a + E_g,a = E_kin,b + E_g,b
E_kin,b = E_kin,a + E_g,a - E_g,b
E_kin,b = 0.5mv_a^2 + mgh_a - mgh_b
E_kin,b = 0.5 * 840 * 15.28^2 + 840 * 9.81 * 85.0 - 840 * 9.81 * 64.0 = 271109 = 2.7 * 10^5 J

So the kinetic energy on the second hill is 2.7 * 10^5 J(oule).

a = situation on the top of hill #1
b = situation on the top of hill #2
v_a = 55 / 3.6 = 15.28 ms^-1
g = 9.81 ms^-2
h_a = 85.0 m
h_b = 64.0 m

Ignore frictional forces, means no loss of energy. So:
E_total,a = E_total,b
E_kin,a + E_g,a = E_kin,b + E_g,b
E_kin,b = E_kin,a + E_g,a - E_g,b
E_kin,b = 0.5mv_a^2 + mgh_a - mgh_b
E_kin,b = 0.5 * 840 * 15.28^2 + 840 * 9.81 * 85.0 - 840 * 9.81 * 64.0 = 271109 = 2.7 * 10^5 J

This.

Thanks for the help!  :D

N ^3 or like 2^2 = 4

Ah, you know we have commands for typing it like that :) anyway then you'll get

3N2(A+B)= -1

Christ thats a tuffy. Specially at this time of night.
I'll get it.

No problem. ;)

Now here's one for you guys, for fun.

(x^2 + 6)^9. Write out it (leaving no more brackets), and yes, you don't need a computer program to do so.

And that makes...

(a+b)9=a9+9a8b+36a7b2+84a6b3+126a4b5+126a3b6+84a2b7+36ab8+9+b9

So....

(x2+6)9=x18+
54x16+216x14+18144x12+163296x10+979776x8+3919104x6+10077696x4+15116544x2+10077696
