unreality

and B would be solely responsible for C's murder (just strengthening the point lol)

lmao we know its impossible, but ther was no time limit, and no specifications that say you MUST travel on that road... you could take a longer route to reach the average of 60

okay all we need is #1 and #4

hehe... nullity what's L'Hopital's rule?

1. does "hotter" refer to temperature? 2. does it start off dirty? 4. hmmm 5. what WERE you thinking? 6. however much Rich has 7. time to get a new clock

by "mine" i meant "my own" as in "my own answer: dead ppl" not like a "gold mine" or something. lol

exactly. N is an infinite number of things. any number. every number. we're talking all positive numbers, all negative numbers, 0, all fractions, all endlessly repeating or endlessly crazy decimal numbers (like pi). Or even imaginary numbers (i). and N*0 = 0 so 0/0 = N you can replace N with any number you want but even that can be questioned, if you question the rule that is based on... sure 5*2=10 can also be expressed by 10/2=5, but do you have to use algebra to make the switch? 5 * 2 = 10 divide by 2 on both sides 5 = 10 / 2 or can you just automatically make the switch? thats the question. if you can, 0/0=N. If you cant, my equation equals out to: 0/0=0/0 lol

but the statement rookie gave guarantees a kiss. See, without the kiss part of his statement, it would be: "You will not give me your photo." It's a paradox. But if we have another part to it, it gives an opportunity to break out of the paradox to prove it wrong and still not give a photo, which is to kiss him. think of it this way: if the statement is true: she will give neither photo nor kiss But then she would have to give her photo because it was true. And then it would be false. or if the statement is false: (meaning both true and false point to false) she will give EITHER photo or kiss But if she gives the photo, it would be true, so she can't do that. He gets kissed, no matter what.

1. assuming "hotter" means temperature-wise, my answer is: lack of heat. Think about it. If lack of heat is getting colder, it's temperature is getting hotter... right? i dunno. lol 2. a black man's c*ck (??? lol sorry if thats offensive, its all i can think of) oh wait, maybe one of those magic board things where you shake it to make it black again? 3. a towel, duh 4. Chuck Norris 5. zillions of answers for this... mine: the number of people dead (assuming some dude like Jesus or something doesn't come along and start resurrecting ppl) 6. how much do you need to be poor? 7. whatever time ur clock says 8. the first three make a three-sided equilateral pyramid with no bottom or anything, just all three pointing up and meeting each other at the 'peak' of the pyramid. The fourth stick up from this at the same angles as the other ones. No matter how you throw it, it will land on 3 'pyramid feet' with one match sticking straight up. Like a caltrop.

When I was like 5 my dad told me you can't divide 0 by 0. I set out to prove him wrong... 1) N represents every and any single number 2) A*B = C can be rewritten as C/B = A Example: 5 * 2 = 10 is the same as 10 / 2 = 5 3) A rewrite of the A*B=C: N*B = C C/B = N 4) Substitute C and B for 0: N*0 = 0 (this is correct, think of 5*0 = 0 or 100*0 = 0, N=anything, anything times 0 is 0, so N*0 = 0) 0/0 = N The logic is undeniable. 0/0 equals any possible number, and every possible number. Even 0. Using reverse multiplication or whatever its called. BUT then a couple days ago I realized that its possible for the entire base of the logic to be shifted... yes NB = C can be rewritten as C/B = N but to do so, don't you use algebra: NB = C /B /B (divide by B on both sides) N = C/B remember B and C are both 0... so dividing by B is dividing by 0. So yeah once again 0/0 evades the only solution possible.

ahh, yeah

nope i saw it in a book... i hardly even get the answer mate ;D

lol i got 10/11 then

8/9... i didnt get the apples one

there are 2 solutions: 1) It's impossible, if you are going in the straight line that's 120 km from A to B 2) If you take a detour to even it out, you can do it. The simplest way is to extend your trip so the second half is 90 km not 60 km, and then go at 90 kmh. I think that works. Well its something like that. You can do longer detours, too, if you go faster accordingly.

yep. see my second, less confusing spoiler. it explains it.

exactly (but he didnt)

thats why

an even better explanation (less muddled):

Where I saw this, the solution was long winded and didn't make sense. I'll clear it up:

this is of similar style to my Three Philosophers problem, except this one is easier: The three wisest sages in the land were brought before the king to see which of them were worthy to become the king's advisor. After passing many tests of cunning and invention, they were pitted against each other in a final battle of the wits. Led blind-folded into a small room, the sages were seated around a small wooden table as the king described the test for them. "Upon each of your heads I have placed a hat. Now you are either wearing a blue hat or a white hat. All I will tell you is this- at least one of you is wearing a blue hat. There may be only one blue hat and two white hats, there may be two blue hats and one white hat, or there may be three blue hats. But you may be certain that there are not three white hats." "I will shortly remove your blind folds, and the test will begin. The first to correctly announce the colour of his hat shall be my advisor. Be warned however, he who guesses wrongly shall be beheaded. If not one of you answers within the hour, you will be sent home and I will seek elsewhere for wisdom." With that, the king uncovered the sages' eyes and sat in the corner and waited. One sage looked around and saw that his competitors each were wearing blue hats. From the look in their eyes he could see their thoughts were the same as his, "What is the colour of my hat?" For what seemed like hours no one spoke. Finally he stood up and said, "The colour of the hat I am wearing is . . ."

okay i will. gimme a sec okay u edited ur post so iguess u dont want it explained any more?

veracity's logic is perfect Ok... let me try and make this clearer to you... The actions of A were intended to kill C by poisoning him C died since A depleted C's supply of DRINKABLE WATER. Once A added the poison, C had no drinkable water. C died of thirst thereby making A's actions responsible for the murder. It is irrelevant that C did not die the way A intended for him to. The actions of B were intended to kill C B's actions did not play a part in killing C since B just took away poisoned water from C which was irrelevant to C's death. B's actions in no way caused C's death. It is irrelevant that C died the way B intended for him to. I thereby question the veracity of your conclusion. okay lemme copy the important part of what you said: "B's actions did not play a part in killing C since B just took away poisoned water from C which was irrelevant to C's death. B's actions in no way caused C's death." shortened down to the essence of your point: "took away poisoned water from C which was irrelevant to C's death" WHAT? It's how he died! It doesnt matter if there was poison or not in the water... he didnt die from poison... he died as a direct result of B's actions. It doesnt matter if A put koolaid powder or poison or nothing at all in the water... because C NEVER TOOK A SIP OF THE WATER! B killed him. A tried to kill him but B got to him first. That's all. B- murderer! A- attempted murderer of course A and B might have died by dehydration long before that, and if they didnt nobody would really know anything and there would be no witnesses anyway, and in the courts, anything could happen, but the essence is that B killed him. It makes no sense that A killed him because A doesnt matter. Whatever A did to the water doesnt matter. That water is draining down in the desert sand.

in case anyone didn't get how i solved the problem, u start at the back of the problem and work backwards. Do the same with this second problem.

Now you know how to solve these kinds of problems... If I am twice as old as you were when I was your age, and when you are my age the sums of our ages will be 63, how old am I now and how old are you?
