[Q] Old timer needs help with algebraic equation - Off-topic

Guys, I've been approached by a young girl and she asked me to show her the answer to the root of 69 using only integers. My algebra computation unit (aka brain) is quite unused up to the point that A, L, G and E has completely rusted of the equation. I suppose the answer could be:
69 <3 i
but that is a little too cheeky. What do you think guys?

.... sqrt(69)....is "eight something" ("eight" is pronounced like "a.." errmm)
Here's the actual answer, though:
1. Find the closest perfect square -- 64, in this case. Subtract 64 from 69. The result is 5. Add two zeros after the result.
8.
√69
-64
-----
5|00
2. Double the number above the radical sign (exclude the period), and place the new number next to 500.
_8. _
√69
-64
-----
(16_) 5|00
3. Fill in the blank with a number, such that 16x times x is less than or equal to 500.
8.3
√69
-64
-----
(163) 5|00 (16x times x)
-489 <--163 times 3 = 489
-----
11|00
4. Repeat steps 2-3:
8.3_ √69
-64
-----
(163) 500
-489
-----
(166_) 11|00 <--double 83, and you get 166. remember, you exclude periods

sorry m just a bit tensed that i cant pay proper attention
2:Line through (-1,3) and parallel to the line 3x + 5y = 15
When x=0
3(0) + 5y = 15
5y=15
Y=3
So when x=0,.. y=3 ,...(0,3)
When y=0
3x + 5(0) = 15
3x=15
X=5
So when y=0,.. x=5,.. (5,0)
Plot both on graph, then join the two.

In 2 and 3, first isolate y.
Then take the multiple of x, and use it as a in the function I wrote earlier. x0 and y0 are the coordinates you're given

5y=15-3x

Is 3/5 the multiple of x to use?

Guys, I'm happy for you, and Ima let you finish, but .9999...=1 is only approximate.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Did you even read the two links I provided?
Is 0.9999999999 = 1?
No. The clue is in the question.
Mathematicians make assumptions, and this is a classic case of that. They're saying, "It's so close to 1 that we may as well call it that." I'd love to see the mathematician that agrees with the thread title working for NASA and calculating safety measures for rockets. (Actually I wouldn't because it would mean people would likely die!)
It's because your calculator wants to output numbers beginning with a whole integer. 0.999 instead of .999. So it cuts off the last digit and rounds with it. 9 is greater than 5 and so it rounds up. Then carries the addition over to make it 1.
Does that make sense without having to go into great detail? Once you get into advanced mathematics, you need to learn how all the different types of calculators are programmed to operate. Cause you learn you can't trust them because of problems like the one you are using. So you learn some don't follow order of operation, some round off the last digit, some cut it off.
It's why I always liked programming my formulas and theorems in cpp and getting the answers that way with the libraries that we made in my group.

1>0.999999999, but the approximation is close.
It depends on what you're working on. If you were building a part for an aircraft and needed accuracy to be +/- .0001, it's the same. However, if I ordered to trade to $0.999999999 x 10^15 for $1.00 x 10^15, you'd be getting ripped off.

It's because your calculator wants to output numbers beginning with a whole integer. 0.999 instead of .999. So it cuts off the last digit and rounds with it. 9 is greater than 5 and so it rounds up. Then carries the addition over to make it 1.
Does that make sense without having to go into great detail? Once you get into advanced mathematics, you need to learn how all the different types of calculators are programmed to operate. Cause you learn you can't trust them because of problems like the one you are using. So you learn some don't follow order of operation, some round off the last digit, some cut it off.
It's why I always liked programming my formulas and theorems in cpp and getting the answers that way with the libraries that we made in my group.

An easy test to figure out if your calculator rounds the last digit or cuts it off is to do 10÷6. Is the last digit a 6 or a 7. If it's 6, it cuts off, 7 it rounds off.

Nexus 7 32GB - request to run Androbench

Would any body lucky enough to have picked up a new Nexus 7 32 GB, please run the Androbench benchmark on it, I'm curious to see if they have improved i/o performance.
Thanks
Same as the others

OK, thanks, so is the model number still C90?
I am starting to think they've had this model for a while and didn't want to sell it right away.

Yeah, it's C90 - build date is early Sept, which is why it was running 4.1.1 out of the box.

I wouldn't say ready, as in stuck in a warehouse, but they probably had option clauses in the contract to supply a 32 GB model, if certain conditions were met, price / QA / stocks levels of older devices etc.
Yes it's a C9O which means Sept build date.. My 16GB was a C8O and 100% perfect, and this 32GB is also 100% perfect.. No lift, no creeking, no dead pixels... Notta.

It doesn't - I used the 720p mod.

Sounds like little ol' Nexus is ready to take on the iFad mini, this forum is going to get messy post Christmas with all the new noob owners, refusing to use the search button.

Eh.. I don't mind new users.. I was new, you were new, everyone was new once and more than likey ( I know I did ) asked a million dumb questions.. Hell, I still ask the random dumb question now and then. :laugh: Android is a constant learning process.
Help a new user out today and he could be the guy (or girl) developing your next ROM tomorrow (figuratively speaking).

Didn't want to seem that I would not help any newcomers, I'd be happy to help, but when people don't do a little searching before asking a question, it does them a disservice.

Gotcha, and completely agree. :good:
A little faster

I seem to have gotten a little faster. This is the 32GB + 3g model - after the 4.2 update, and then I did a factory reset. Took the benchmark before anything else was installed.
I guess I can't post a link as I haven't posted enough.

What case is that? Mine has straps over the corners of the nexus and I hate it!
