    You don't need to make those lists. Lets call the first number "x". That makes the othe number "x+3". (x+3)^2-x^2=1989. This becomes x^2+6x+9-x^2=1989. The "x^2"s cancel each other out leaving you with 6x+9=1989. I think you know how to finish this.

    Lol. I think he has to do something violent before you can legally tase him.

    Can you arrest him for withholding information related to the investigation? It might not do any good but I guess you could try an interrogation.

    After what peace*out said, ask about how he knows Mateo.

    I guess Unicorn got it first.

    It's OK. I think my brain has declared a strike. Among other memory issues, I almost went to school on a no school day last week.

    In an attempt to return to the games and geeky things theme. . . "Random chance seems to have operated in our favor." Darth Legion: I am not sure what time zone you are in but I do not usually go online in the morning and am at school at noon. It is not necessary to continue your comments on my wall. I am sorry there is a time gap between posts but I will post as soon as it is possible.

    No problem! I've gotten to the point where algebra seems rather fun. Algebra never asked me to carbon date a tree that fell when Mount Mazama erupted. =.='

    This is the point where I start to get alarmed. Sometimes, I wonder if people think they will survive getting hit by a car because they have another "life". I was thinking the same thing! Except, I probably don't know what 90% of the things on here are. =.='

    Oops. I just went through the other posts and found out there was a games and geeky things theme. Oh well.

    I'll let someone else do the next quote.

    Not quite. Where did you get the 8 from? Let's start with the equation you have. 18x(number of 18-foot pipes)=20(x-10 sections of pipe) Using the distributive property, we get 18x=20x-200 Solving for x, we get -2x=200 x=100 Substitute 100 for x in the term 18x. 18*100=1800

    Search for stores that sell that particular boot and ask for sales records.

    Investigate the house and hope the "scene of the crime" hasn't been contaminated.

    I am assuming a few things: 1. The cat and dog stop when they get to the other side. 2. The chicken stops walking after 10 minutes. 3. The question is referring to the amount of time that it takes to get to the farm from the time the farmer wakes up. A couple of things: 1. Your chicken walks ridiculously fast for a chicken 2. How do you walk faster than you run?
