What is whats the word, whats the word?
-No resubmiting asked questions, don't break the rules

If you must know, it would be the same as a regular one, zero, he doesnt go faster no matter what he is carry if he is dead.
-see above post
-what

Derive the mathematical term phi three different ways. Make sure one of the ways comes from the Fibonacci sequence, and one of the other ways involves a square root. The third way is up to you. . .
1, phi, (phi + 1), (phi + (phi + 1)), ((phi + 1) + (phi + (phi + 1))), ...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Each term in these two series is equivalent. For instance:
1 = 1
phi = phi
2
phi = (1 + phi)
3
phi = (phi + (1 + phi))
4
phi = ((1 + phi) + (phi + (1 + phi)))
Graphically
2
phi - phi - 1 = 0
we get these values for a, b, and c:
a = 1
b = -1
c = -1
Plugging into the Quadratic Formula gives:
________________
/ 2
-(-1) +- \/ (-1) - 4(1)(-1)
phi = -------------------------------
2(1)
_______
1 +- \/ 1 + 4
= ----------------
2
___
1 +- \/ 5
= ------------

Your pocket calculator, computer, or slide rule can tell you, with varying degrees of accuracy, that the precise value of the square root of 5 is (approximately)
2.2360679774997...
So that we get:
1 + 2.2360679774997...
------------------------ ==> 1.61803398874989...
2
and
(remember a square root has two values, one positive and one negative)
1 - 2.2360679774997...
------------------------ ==> -0.61803398874989...

Sorry, your math skills are slightly less than l337, they are closer to n00b.
