I thought that was going a completely different direction.

[DeadEye_Dan]

Yeah.

She totally wants to ride the baloney pony.

[(MT)Montanafowler]

well...did you pass or fail?

failed there was only one real math problem on it, the rest was shit like Jim's daughter has to do, apparently i don't understand what is the "best" way to solve a problem. i wrote "It's best to just solve the fucking problem.".

the math problem is the one i wrote out, i got full credit.

today's math: Revisiting second grade: writing word problems.


I can't fucking believe that i'm actually paying money for this horse shit.

"Use cue words and well chosen letters to write a formula expressing the information."

Q) Rose paid twice as much as Mike. [Use R and M]


Rose is obviously a dumb bitch who needs to let Mike do the buying in the future if she paid twice as much for the same shit.

M2=R

or

R=M2

or

R(0.5)=M

or

M=R(0.5)

or

R (1/2)=M

or

M= R(1/2)

[(MT)Montanafowler]

M2=R

or

R=M2

or

R(0.5)=M

or

M=R(0.5)

or

R (1/2)=M

or

M= R(1/2)

I know.

[assateague]

[NuffDaddy]

M=R/2
R/2=M

[assateague]

Depends on how many the fucking box holds. Good hell.

[Olly]

No.... It says "evenly" the there are 13 oranges...

[assateague]

What if the box holds 25?

[Feelin' Fowl]

Are the items the same size and/or symmetrical?

[Olly]

Haha you're reading that wrong. It's just saying which fruit can be divided evenly in two.

[assateague]

What if one box holds 10, and one box holds 20?

That may be what it means, but that is not what it says...

[Olly]

It doesn't matter, it's just ask which of the listed fruits can you put equal amounts into each of the 2 boxes.

so, math quiz today asked what the four words in question 6 of the fall test from 3 years ago was.


my answer: This is NOT math. turned it in and left, this shit fucking infuriates me.

good news is that everyone in the class is failing

Who says you can't mix the fruit in one of these imaginary-sized boxes?

[assateague]

How many shotgun shells evenly fit in a box?

[NuffDaddy]

Divide by 2 assa

[assateague]

I know that. But "evenly" does not necessarily mean "by twos". If you put 26 shotgun shells in a box, would they be "evenly" in the box, or would it be a clusterfuck?

If they're going to pretend to make kids think, rather than teach them the basics they need to know, then I'm willing to play their game all the way through. No half-assedness allowed.

What if the two boxes in question hold 6 each?

Your thinking too deep into this. We have all agreed with you up to this point, but I do believe the government shutdown is getting to you... You're wrong on this one.

[Feelin' Fowl]

Your thinking too deep into this. We have all agreed with you up to this point, but I do believe the government shutdown is getting to you... You're wrong on this one.

I'm with Assa on this one.

One of the basics that all children should know is, Say what you mean & mean what you say.

The example here fails to uphold this basic concept.

You know, it doesn't surprise me that Mossberg boy is on the wrong side of yet another argument...

[3legged_lab]

I know that. But "evenly" does not necessarily mean "by twos".

No but the fact that there are "2" boxes does.

[assateague]

I got a box of Hevi-Shot and a box of Xperts. I have two boxes. I have 30 shells. Tell me how they "evenly" go back into their two boxes.

Damn I was going to be a smartass but the Hevi-Shot derailed my logic train.

Arnt there 25 to a box?

[assateague]

The Xperts, yes. The Hevi, 5. Unless they make a box of 25. If so, the fact that I'm still alive means I haven't seen one, since I barely survived seeing the price for a box of 5.
