tellwisdom: Op, this is for u: 10 fishes were divided btwn four people. A gurl came in and requested for a share of hers. Now, 3 raise to power of the balance of the fishes, is what??

xynerise: @poster. This may sound funny but its maths.

Prove that 4 cabin biscuit is equal to 1 Akara.

Richiez:

nice try bro, although you made some some mistakes especially at the point where you took log of both sides. e.g it ought to be log(x+y)= log5 and not logx + logy = log5. but i must admit, you did a very good job.

here's another approach;

x + y = 5.......(1)
x^x + y^y =31.......(2)

from eqn(1), x=5-y, hence we substitute this value for x in eqn(2).
(5-y)^(5-y) + y^y = 31.......(3)
now, we have reduced the problem to what value of y that must be inserted in eqn (3) to obtain 31.

a thorough look at eqns (1) & (2) shows that the values of x & y must be positive integers within the range 0<x<5 and 0<y<5
clearly, y=3
i.e (5-3)^(5-3) + 3^3
2^2 + 27
4+27=31
now that we have established that y=3, we shall substitute the value of y in eqn(1) to get x
recall that x+y=5
therefore; x+3=5 or x=5-3=2
hence, x=2 when y=3

Eze Promoe: I LOVE THIS THREAD AND I'LL LOVE THE MATHS GURU TO SOLVE THIS EQUATION FOR ME!

A boy, X sleeped with my girlfriend, Y and produced 2 kids (2XY), using the onyonyo meter I saw that the pikins is not my own shildren. If Y is 22 years old and her name is Gracie
i)find X?
ii)find X's father, X^2
iii)can X beat me, Z if we fight?

Do that equation quick before i go gaga

Chuks0485: (1)why is it dat in integration of say, dy/dx we separate dy/dx as dy=dx in order to perform our integration wer as d operator (d/dx) is inseperable?


(2)What is d proper definition of d term mathematics?


(3)What is a number?


(4)In mathematics, what is a point(.)?

PortHarcourtBoy: Una say na "Mathematics" thread meanwhile all of una dey speak "English"

Some dey solve Indices, others dey solve Simultaneous equations...very soon another person go come solve Quadratic equations...abi na SS1 students dey here?

Wey the Engineers dem make we solve some First Order Differential Equations...and apply am to Fluid transfer and Thermodynamics

Meanwhile wey my Gala and La Casera?

Richiez: This thread is the meeting point for nairaland maths gurus...i dare you all to ask me a question in mathematics without me having an answer to them, LETS START

1stknight:

I believe that your equation is logically correct, if 0/0=c no matter the value of c you will still get the same answer. Therefore, 0/0 does not mean any particular number - or even anything until we give it some new meaning. And you my brother gave the value to be 12 and bro I can as well as you to cross multiply to make 0=0.
Bottom line is 0/0 is nothing

tunalism: Solve dis partial fraction. - : 3(4x^3+x^2+5)/x(2x^3+1)(x^2+3)M PLEASE SOLVE IT

Youngsage:
x + y =5 -------- eqn i.
x^x + y^y=31 ----- eqn ii.
From equatns i & ii, take the log of both sides
(xlog^x + ylog^y) = log 31------ eqn iii.
logx + logy = log 5 ------------ eqn iv.
xylogxy= log 31 -------- eqn v.
log xy = log 5 --------- eqn vi.
(Using elimination method);
xylog5 = log31
xy = log 31/log 5 =6.2 approx. 6.

Recall, from eqn i, x + y = 5.
So x = 6/y or y = 6/x.
Therefore x=2 when y=3.
ans: x=2, and y=3.

thumbs up bro

xynerise:
if not that we are in a new year I would have said you are very very stu.pid.

4 cabin biscuits is equal to 90 degree each. Add all and it will give u 360 degree(a circle i.e Akara). Antelope

Lie lie mathmatician, wetin carry log enter the equation?
No come put anybody inside bottle.
You think say na only you do mathmatics?
