well start with x+y+z=18, z=4y, and y=6+x. The 3rd can be changed to y-6=x, then you can substitute the two back into the first to get (y-6)+y+4y=18, solve for y and just plug them back into the other equations to get the rest

That came from a report I read right before getting on here.

Tom Mattson, I downloaded a couple songs by Super 400 and they're pretty good, any particular favorites that I should listen to?

My favorite band is AFI (heck, my name is ripped off from the lead singer, Davey Havok). As for guitarist... Cobain or Tom Morello (guy from Rage Against the Machine).

I just did a really quick yahoo search and found this right away... http://www.frontiernet.net/~imaging/graph_my_equation.html

Wow, that is simply the largest number I've ever seen. How long did it take you to look up all those place names? Or is there just a pattern in there that I just didn't see (god knows I didn't look through them all)?

Actually I don't think the 'and' is supposed to be there, because 'and' implys a decimal point. It would just be "one thousand one"

I just looked up what a McNugget number is... I can't actually believe that this is a mathematical term, found on wolfram nonetheless. McNugget Numbers ... I don't see how this had anything to do with my sequence though. Mine was: (prime number+2)^2-prime number Please explain how you got that from McNugget Numbers gnpatterson.

I didn't know this was based on a sequence actually, I just made it up in my head. 344 is right, might as well just say the pattern now gnpatterson.

Nope Martin, not it

Yup, you got it, how'd you cheat though? I thought you said that site didn't work?

If you only want it to a couple decimal places, I find this method useful. [math]\frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}dx+ \sqrt{x}[/math] Here's an example: [math]\sqrt{24.8}[/math]. Pick the closest perfect square, in this case 25. So x=25, and dx=-.2. When you put the numbers in you get -.02+5, which is 4.98. When you put it in a calculator its really 4.97996, so it's pretty close.

Your numbers are wrong, that's the problem. In the row that you have 1,3,3,5,3,3, it should be 1,3,4,5,4,3. Also, you went one to many rows. Oh yeah, Peppers, I recounted and got 56.

no, it's purely mathematical

55?

no, I meant just the cube root of just 8 (2) and he said we could use roots

I found AP Chem the hardest, but I think that's because we had to go through the whole thing in half a school year because our princple sucked and didn't want to give us the whole year. Sad thing is, next year (since our principle quit), it's a full year course, I just took it a year to early. I found AP Calc really easy

I got it. The (cuberoot of 8)*7-4=10 (the cuberoot uses the 3) edit: I added parenthases to lessen confusion

Find the next number and explain the pattern: 14,22,44,74,158,? Good luck!

well that'd make a big difference should've realized that. how about: 1st:4,6 2nd:7,1,8,2 3rd:3,5 ?

I'm just going to go in order across from the top: 3,7 2nd row: 8, 1, 9, 2 3rd row:6,4. That's what I got from your picture at least.

That's odd, I can beat all the easy ones like nothing, but then I tried a medium and couldn't get it. Curious at how hard hard was, I tried one and did it easily. Maybe I just got lucky or maybe the difficulty system is a little messed up.

Oh, that's what those are called! I bought a puzzle book and it had tons of those in it, one even went bigger, 16x16 and you had to use 1-9 and all the letters in NUMBERS. I got quite good at them but then I ran out. Thanks for the site. (oh yeah, this stupid book just called them "number places"... bleh, Sudoku sounds a lot cooler)

Yes you do, but it may just be asking you to solve for k or t. For instance, you could subtract 72, take the log, and divide by -k to get [math]T= -\frac{log_{26.6}(24.8)}{k}[/math] If you want to get values for either you need another equation though.
