first inner outer last does NOT MEAN

(1 + 1)(x + x)
(x + 2)(2 + x)
(3 + x)(x + 3)
(x + x)(4 + 4)

please keep this in mind less you fall victim to what I just did two hours ago and end up bombing your math quiz

(but then again I would've bombed it anyway since I missed the class and didn't study at all, and I haven't done FOIL in years)

yeah...

I suck at math. I love geometry and trig and even understand what calculus I've been exposed to. I'm good with spatial relationships and whatnot. But I can't do the freaking algebra involved. Polynomials kick my ass. I hate factoring...

Haha, of all things? Then again I guess if you don't go with the material a lot, you do forget how to do it (obviously).

Ugh, I can't even remember how long I've been doing factoring in Math. 3-4 years maybe.

I'm the opposite of Kasdarack here though, I don't mind Algebra at all, but Geometry annoys me. Its either that or I'm just lazy and want simple equations with variables to solve instead of anything else.

I like being able to visualize it. I can reverse engineer a lot of math if I have a picture. That's how I pass my classes.

My memory is just crap, though I can usually figure it out if I can remember how to even do it...

I learned next to nothing in HS because my dean was a dickhead who put me in Elementary Algebra out of spite (since I was constantly getting on his and Fatas-- I mean Mr. Wilson, the computer guy's nerves by spamming Norton messages under the anonymous account ). (I should also mention I got kicked out of Computer Science for trying to recover assignment files that someone deleted... and it was the only class I passed that semester)

One of these days when I learn how to shape shift I'm going to make big $$$ taking people's math exams for them .

You don't need to shapeshift. Just do it for the courses that have very large sections and sit in the back. Chances are they're not going to call you on it. Especially if the person you're impersonating only goes to class to get the syllabus and take tests.

Yes, Tarale, that's what it is.

Also I don't know what I would do if I forgot how to algebra.

Probably go all emo.

You know what's REALLY bad?

"j = -5/4t * 2.1d + 14. What does t equal"?

I mean what the HELL, there's too many letters

So... solve for t and leave the answer in terms of d and j...

it's impossible to find t based on that equation.

I'd like to beg to differ, t = - ( ( 4 * ( j - 14 ) ) / ( 2.1 * 5 * d ) )

Okay, now solve for x mister "I beg to differ!"

Dude... no. The cubic equation is not something you wish on people. Much less to have them post it on the board.

such basic math here in this thread...

Tatrion's

t=(2(j-14)/(105d)

spel werdz rite:
Do you have some other equation for a system?
Else you would be stuck with

x(ax^2+bx+c)=d

and finally xk's math:

4x
x^2+4x+4
x^2+6x+9
16x

I always got FOIL until they put dang square roots with it. But the worst thing I did was used Distance Formula instead of Midpoint Formula on a couple of problems.
