math question

[ManBearPig]

-3(8(x^2)+2)^2 * (16x)

x=0

isnt this -204?

 

[oiprocs]

Yes you're a retard. Do your own homework.

 

[Epic Fail]

you can't even post your hw right, no help for you!

 

[flxnimprtmscl]

Answer to the math question is 0. Answer to the summary question is yes.

 

[Toastedlightly]

lol wut?

 

[Martin]

anything times zero is zero. How the hell could that be -204?

 

[OdiN]

Yes.

You figure out to what.

 

[ManBearPig]

uh 0 was right, thanks, but how in the hell did you get that?

 

[oiprocs]

I'm going to verbally harass the first person to try to help him with the answer.

:evil:

It's this new invention called a calculator. You should really look into getting one

Anything * 0 is zero...

x = 0

so 16 * x would equal....

This is not ubuntu. This is ATOT. Take your "everybody helps everybody" approach to some other forum little boy.

...the whole * (16x) comment should be the tipoff, anything times 0 = 0, but if you want you can break it down...

-3(8(x^2)+2^2 =

-3(8x^2)+2^2
-24x^2 + 4

0+4 * 0 = 0

 

[ManBearPig]

ive got no clue lol. i know anything times 0 is zero but wouldnt that be at least like -12...

=-3(8(0)^2 +2)^2
=-3(0 + 4)
=-12

? AHHHHH

edit: oh, i see, it was the * 0 (16x) that did it. out of curiosity, did i even do the above correct? thanks multiband....also, why didnt you distribute the -3 by 2 as well as the 8?

 

[Harabec]

Methinks your math is a bit illogical.

No dude. Look at is this way All this -3(8(x^2)+2)^2 is irelevant. Yes, you get -12 but it's still being multiplied by 16x which equals zero. Anything times zero is zero.

So even if you has 1500^5(59)*16x where x=0 the answer is still zero.

haha, i know it is for sure...i suck at math. but how is this not right:

=-3(8(0)^2 +2)^2
=-3(0 + 4)
=-12

i dunno why multiband didnt distribute the -3 by 2 as well as 8. for some reason i wasnt even paying attention to the 16x which made the problem, basically.

 

[BrownTown]

I feel embarrassed for you just reading this, but anyways

(-3(8(x^2)+2)^2)*0

It don't matter what the heck "-3(8(x^2)+2)^2" turns out to be since its multiplied by 0 the answer is 0, you fail at maths and lifes.

I got

x = do your own homework n00b.

Your math is just as bad as the OP's.

Any time you're given a variable equal to zero, look for quick ways to make the whole equation equal zero. In this case, 16x=0, so you know that the whole equation is zero. Anyway, here's how you'd solve the equation the long way:

-3(8(x^2)+2)^2 * (16x)
-3(8(0^2)+2)^2 * (16*0)
-3(8(0)+2)^2 * 0
-3(0+2)^2 * 0
-3(2)^2 * 0
-3(4)*0
-12*0
0

QFT, PEMDAS.

PEMDAS


Also, you don't deserve a high school diploma if you can't solve that in about 30 seconds, even if you work it out all the way.

Goodness, me! This is sad
