ademoladeji:

Thread na for Ogun not for comparison with other state(s).
Gbam i salute u bros, i find it hard to believe why people reason like this, always finding a negative connotation of ones opinion,there is no single state that does not have an achiever, you either celebrate with us or look on, must you always find a reason why one should not be happy for coming this far?

Yes, I must admit there are cases where it is extremely close. But I don't think there exist a situation where it is actually 1.

There's an exception though. When the index is 1. e.g 1250 grin

For the instances above:

3129 has 62 digits.

129log3 = 61.5486... (Rounded up, we have 62) valid

317 has 9 digits.

17log3 = 8.111... (Rounded up, we have 9) valid

Oh isee thts ur idea of rounding up
and ofcourse not there is never a case where it is 0.1 or 1 exactly
it comes from the idea that it comes from the fact that every exponential expression a^b>1 is such that 10^n-1<a^b>10^n infact it was from this axiom i thought that a^b could be at any point at infinity very close to the lower boundary or the upper boundary, if it is very close to the upper boundary, where logk <1 normally based on your rounding up if you had n=999.62 forexample it would be 1000 but actually if the value of k is to considered you could have 999.62 + 0.4 which gives 1000.02 which should be approximated to 1001 somehow we would not be able to test all numbers to infinity, but we can test as many number of digits as possible, i am not trying to disprove you bro,i am just saying based on my assumption there is a possibilty of having that +-1 problem somewhere at infinity unless my assumption is wrong which is also another possibility, we are in a mathematical world, there are just too many things that are not exactly predictable.All the best

It is not an assumption. Check the solution again.

Note:

0.1< k ≤ 1

Therefore -1 ≤ log k ≤ 0

This implies that we will always round up
Thıs observatıon ıs especıally for u is prime where u is the power of exponetial expression for which the total number of digits are to be found, try 3^129, 3^17 though logk<1 but there are cases where logk is very close to 1, thus altering the actual approximation of the number of digits

The answer should be:

5000log3

which is 2385.60627...

Since there can only be whole digits(always round up), the answer is 2386

Explanation:

35000 == k x 10n

where n represent the number of digits if 0.1< k < 1

finding log of both sides and simplifying:

5000log3 = logk + nlog10

n = 5000log3 - logk

since logk is inconsequential since logk <<< 5000log3, we can ignore first.

n = 5000log3
n = 2385.60627...

Note that -1 lessorequal logk lessorequal 0

Therefore we can only round up our answer

n = 2386


Also, by extension:

logk = 5000log3 - 2386

k = 10(5000log3 - 2386)
k = 0.40389976...

It follows that 35000 = 0.4039 x 102386


Good Morning Nigeria

Well you might be or not be exactly right it could be 2385, i am trying to verify that, there are cases of application of the formula were approximating it gives u a number 1 less or 1 more than exact, but you don try respect

Sorrry but the church has no business in doing this. This is the full functional right of both families. That is how pastors will start causing problems before even the marriage kicks off
well farely right, you did not understand me too well,ı also agree ıts not the most ımportant thıng ın a union, but for the current disorderliness in churches, it would have been a near necessity also, cos we are one body, grafted onto jesus, so the happiness of one is the happiness of all and the sadness of one is the sadness of all

Christianity Etc › Re: How Biblical Is Church Wedding? by benji93: 12:12pm On Dec 06, 2015
Let us not dispute unnecessarily abouth these things, we must do just as the bible teaches us, Jesus never spoke of a particular location where a wedding must be conducted, it is like we are overly concerned about the physicality of our actions, Jesus specifically says in the book of mark ch 10 vs 8:For this cause a man shall leave his mother and father and be clung to his wife, and they shall be joined together in one flesh, whatever God has joined together let no man put assunder. So let us discen this, a man leaves his mother and father and clings to his wife, there must be concent here, without which a man cannot cling to his wife, now in those days morality was at its peak, people rarely get married for wealth acquisition or material benefits, either by the parents or by any of the couples, so then when the parents approve a marriage God approves to, once they willingly concent, that is it, but today the same cannot be said, some parents marry their children out because of the material benefits they hope to derive from it, likewise some people also get married because of the material benefits they hope to derive from it, so the question now is does God approve of it. No ofcourse, God cannot be mocked, he does not approve of anything sham. It is important to be careful when we talk about traditional wedding, the isrealite state then was established by the doctrines instituted by God himself, so their traditional wedding were always according to the dictates of God, though i cant peak for those that deliberately deviate from the the pathe God layed down. So their traditional wedding was the dictate of God. The same cannot be said about our traditional weddings, i can say much about Muslims, asccording to general christian doctrines, our traditional stuffs are fetish. So if we are not sure of the Godliness of the complex marriage, why not do just the simplest, and the needful, obtain the concent of your parents when when you are sure you sincerely want to live with your to be wife or husband for the rest of your life, organize a small party that brings the two families together, thus cementing and formalizing the relationship and afterwards registering according to the laws of the land. The latter would not have been that important if the world was inorder. So the conclusion of the matter is the most important pre-requisite for a union is consent, i mean holy consent, without this God does not approve,this is the honour God gives your parents for accepting the responsibilty and doing the imperative. We will all have that honor, if we decide to get married. if you if you do a church wedding, its not sinful, its only an addition infact through that the church recognizes you as a couple, and it is a good thing to dicuss our woes and happiness with the people of the household of faith, as the bible directs. Whether overtly or covertly the holy consent is most important. God bless Nigeria. I rest my case.

I think the cross product of two or more vectors is as scalar as the dot product of the two vectors, but most mathematicians all over the world believe in it as a vector. I think there is something illogical about the general derivation of cross product.What do you think?

As far as i know, physics is the only science and the others are rubber stamps, you should not make a decision to study physics becos you have no other option, but because you want to understand nature and unveil certain other mysteries.Physics is not for those that want to engage in a lucrative job, it is for those who are ready to sacrifice the wealth the world offers for a lifetime of endless search of answers to questions that nature keeps posing.I rest my case
Christianity Etc › Re: Ghana Millionaire Says He Does Not Pay Tithe by benji93: 12:50am On Nov 22, 2015
CharlyNick:
God asked u to eat your tithe yourself? Where did u see that?

You are misunderstanding this whole thing bro
The guy only did quote a part of the verses just to support what he thinks but out of curiousity i read that chapter Deuteronomy 24 myself and i found out that God explicitly instructed us to give to the levites, and he gave the reason why we should do that-- The levites have no inheritance with thee, but in a subsequent verse God further added that you shall lay up thy tithe in their gates and the levites, the poor and widows shall come an eat of eat- This means, out of your increase you must keep a part for those category of people. It is not wrong to pay the Tithe to the church, as far as the same purpose is served, distribution of your Tithe to the needy, but most churches do not serve that purpose today, so what happens, by giving to the church that purpose of distribution to the needy is not fulfilled, so you can decide to give to the poor yourself and give a part to to the Pastor, in the case where you give a part to the pastor who does not serve his purpose, do not bother about it, because you had executed the dictates of God so the Judgement now lies betwenn God and the pastor. Now this particular verse precedes Malachi 3 vs 8, so we can deduce that there was a process in place the tithes were taken to the church, then these were distributed to the designated people. The needy did not have anything to feed on, and this was because there was no food in God's house, because that is the most probable place they would be as the commandments God laid down for the Isrealites to obey were occasionally read out to the hearing of the Isrealites, so the poor understand that by the dictates of God, that is were they would find food. but they get there and there is no food, will that not make them turn away from God, and most definitely God provides for them through you, so the poor lament to God and God tells you but have i not instructed you to bring tithes to my house so this people can be fed. But today what do we see, the people pay their tithe, but it is the levites that are not keeping their part of the instruction. So what do w do as humans, with the express purpose of fulfilling the purpose of God, we keep the tithe and give to the poor and the levites.In this case we are are just actualizing the mind of God, especially in this era where the whole of christiandom is not bounded by certain tenets, htat tells us who serves which purpose, and even if there is one of the parties defaults in his responsibilities, but all in all the purpose of God must be fulfilled. My piece.
Sports › Re: Nigeria Vs Brazil: FIFA U-17 World Cup Quarter Finals (3 - 0) Live by benji93: 5:32pm On Nov 03, 2015
The Nff are doing well maybe, based on the new development structures they are building. Also excellence at age-group competition does not single handedly translate to to success at the senior stage, between the under 17 level and the senior stage, each player has a period of time during which they must take certain vital decisions concerning their future.within this period you either make your future or unmake it. I think for Nigeria to excell at the world level at this point in time, we must teach and learn the art of football. There must be some technicalities that must be considered in the process of development. This technicalities must not be ignored based on the fanciful though that they will grow up and do it better. After selection of raw talents, then must come the teaching of technicalities, i define a person as talented in a particular activity when his senses naturally distinguishes him in that activity. Now what is his senses trying to tell onlookers. They are trying to tell us what they can do, it is left to you to hone that skill perform it appropriately and in a refined way. The NFF must have a policy that implements that players must be able to understand certain technicalities by the time they represent Nigeria internationally. They should state that by the time we get to the under 17 world cup all the players should be able to play like this, strikers should be able to do this, in a difficult situation, you must consider this before making your decision, they must be taught how a team must behave as a unit too in all kinds of situation. The coaches are not left out of the education, they must learn how to understand the tempo of the game, and its direction, there are so many indices that defines that, they must learn to make difficult choices. Some years from now, the NFF needs to put in place measures that define the technicalities a coach of any of the national teams must have, this should be after they have ensured that there is a system present to educate indigenous coaches to acquire those technicalities. Oh i forgot this one, the NFF should be educated too, they should be competent in managing the federation, so who appoints the NFF committees, some people do that, they must be educated too and objective as well, to spur the desire of other people in educating themselves, who elects those that appoints the NFF, me and you, you must educate yourself too, we must be able to see not just true ideologies, but appropriate and effective ones. So i think that we must all educate ourself, as this will influence, how other systems work. And mind you i have not mentioned the word formal. I mean education through whatever means, know something, understand it and do it for the benefit of all. You do not have to be able to speak English to be seen as an educated one. Infact the nations that claim to be the custodian of English, are no where among the best achievers in the football world. In other fields however they have established themselves. Until there is a system we can rely on, we must create smaller effective systems to effect our education, the smallest unit that can do this is the family.

abeg no vex,explain how d tin take fall abi descend from heaven..
Our mode worship is a replica of the heavenly mode of worship, and do not ask where in the bible this one too is, that is why jesus passed on the presence of the trinity on earth to the holyspirit, and tells us the holyspirit would guide us right and bring to remembrance everything he has told us, the holyspirit works in unfathomable ways. and to others that are castigating and sounding self-righteous, i can vividly tell you that Jesus could not have been able to perform all the works of the holy spirit in his life time, even people that lived over 100 years were unable to complete their mission, but he did enough to lay the foundation, so he remains with us in the nature of the holyspirit, 1st cor 12-6 says that their are diversities of activities but the same God works all in all, can you bodly tell me that the spirit of God that moved over the waters in the beginning, the spirit that directed Elisha to heal the water by pouring salt into the water at its source, and then he said, i have healed this water, and there shall be no more death and barrenness in this land anymore(2 kings 2-19) or maybe you have not read in the bible where moses was instructed to raise up his hand until the amalekites all fell(Exodus 17-11), in my human wisdom i would consider that a punishment meted to moses, or where God directed moses to deep a particular tree into the bitter waters of Marah and the waters were made sweet(Exodus 15 vs 23), or God rained manna from heaven(Exodus 16 vs 4) or where Elisha healed the son of the shunammite woman, Elisha sent Gehazi first to lay his staff on the child but there was no answer, he then went there prayed to the lord and laid on the child, the child warmed up and arose, or maybe that was performed by the old spirit of God, and he that has stagnated his mind with the thought that all demonic deliverances and miracle work of holy divine were done by only the utterance of a word or the laying on of hands, has to read his Bible again, have you forgotten the situation where Jesus healed a deaf and Mute by touching his ears, spat and touched his tongue(perhaps he even spat on his hand before touching his tongue) before finally saying "Ephantha"(Mark 7 vs 34) maybe that was barbaric, in human wisdom he could have made just a sentence, and healed the deaf and mute as he did to others, if all the spirits that did all this works are actually one, the spirit must have not lied in any case, or did Jesus order that the spirit of God should work in a different way now, this would mean the spirit of God was wrong then, meanwhile the spirit of God is God who knew everything from the beginning, if the trinity make up one body, then the work of one at one time could not have contradicted the work of another at another time, because they exude the same power and Glory.Proverbs chapter 26 vs 4 says that do not answer a fool according to his folly lest you be like him, the foregoing message is not directed to one person but to all, so please if you want to criticize sth, criticize it for the act for which it came to your notice, do not because of this descend hell on the whole church, you are only being unwise, and the bible also foretold the emergence of false prophets, and there was the case were the position of certain apostles threatened the unified existence of the church, Jesus also spoke of the parable of tares that were planted among seeds, this is oppressive is it not, but it is the will of God that they may grow together until the end time, you need to make enough enquiries before drawing conclusions, ask questions politely and i know you will get answers in like manner, and fellow celestians i can take some positives from what our brothers said, study to show thyself approved, but for our doctrines, i don't understand why people call it barbaric or uncivilized, if everything becomes civilized must the worship of God to be civilized, know it that civilization is the making of man, there is nothing like olden religion or mode of worship, something is either true or untrue,the problem some people have is that they find the doctrines inconsistent with modern times. do you need to see everything the holyspirit does in the bible,the holy spirit itself is the word, if the holyspirit tells you something, and you confirm tht it is truly from God, read john ch 21 vs 25, the bible is a foundation to build on, if you need everything to be in the bible, then why do we need the holyspirit in the first place, remember that Jesus warns explicitly about sinning against the holyspirit, so if the holyspirit actually uses the prophets in the church or directs certain activities it is not for you to judge, even i will only consider your judgement folly, acts 5 vs 38-39 and my closing note is in revelations 22 vs 12.Thank you.

undecided
i very much support you dear compatriot, school grades do not necessarily measure intelligence, but it does measure determination and discipline over the years prior to the exams taken, especially our system deviates in its measurement of intelligence of students, and it saddens me that there are just no other outlets in this system for those that have deliberately oriented their faculties towards particular fields or subjects, infact infact this system just doesn't suit some of us, even some are really having a tough time adapting to the system, some of us care to much about details we forget about the tune our system is singing, that with the basic education we have acquired we only need to be put in a lab, and the there will be a breakthrough that will win global aclaim, you can draw some inspiration from Albert Einstein, he was almost not admitted into ETH Zurich because he did poorly but they admitted him because he had excellent marks in physics, even after his diploma, he could not get recommendation from his lectures, because they though he was insurbodinate, he preferred studying alone, skipping classes in the process, but he got job at the patent office, a job to review works, others would normally do just hte job for which they are employed, but Einstein looked beyond that, after reading some scientific works his childhood dream was rekindled, and that was where he wrote his fist paper, the same paper that threw the scientific world into confusion, some of us will be better of out of school and receiving first hand training from events themselves, some will only need to sit under a tree and carve our way to greatness like Isaac did a long time ago, but if you do that who will feed you, infact you might only be able get a substantial result of your research work many years after doing the same thing-think and rethink before an idea dawns, but do that here, your father will call you a nuisance, na research i go chop i say go to the university, graduate get a good paying job, some particularly will be more content with unraveling the mysteries of nature, but their parents dont understand that, i believe there should be institutions that will accept exceptional students that the system cannot absorb, some people are so intelligent that they do not even know how intelligent they are, as soon as they are very good at communicating ideas, they will approach such institutions when they realize they exist, the institutions then evaluate these people and the relevance of their ideas, and then apply them to the stuffs that will enable the materialization of their ideas
