I have learned that if a = b and b = c then it follows that a = c.

Is that true, Bobbym?

It's nice that MIFF allows and displays GIFs, unlike many other forums which does not.

Wow! Never clicked on this thread to see what is here. I am really a GK enthusiast and I love each and every general knowledge question I come across.

I had also written an answer on Quora about some amazing GK facts. Here's it https://www.quora.com/What-are-some-goo … kherjee-75

hi iamaditya

No Spam. Spam includes messages that have no relevance to the topic, that are annoying, repetitious or promotional in nature.

I remove adverts because they are (1) sometimes math; (2) they 'clog' up the site with irrelevant rubbish; and (3) it's not fair to the paying sponsors to allow free advertising. If they stop supporting us the forum's very existence  is at risk.

Mostly, these posters join the forum; create one or more posts which contain an advert, either in the post or the signature, then we never hear from them again.

Just once, we had a genuine mathematician who posted a link to the sale of his maths book.  Bobbym had a word with him, and he removed the advert and replaced it with a link to a free download of the book.  That seemed like a good compromise.

Bob

Oh!

I wonder where did bobbym get the free download of the book? Nothing is available for free these days.

That is becoz people (in India at least and most parts of the world), tend to take up either Engineering or Medical and these requires 3 different subjects. Eng requires PCM while med requires PCB. There are only a few who take up both these fields so they happen to be contradictory in that case...

What are PCM and PCB? Are those "PC" referring to the same thing?

"P" here means Physics, "C" means Chemistry, "B" means Biology and "M" means maths. I hope you ca figure it out now.

#14 Re: Help Me ! » Row echelon » 2018-02-26 21:04:26

Are you talking about solving a system of linear equations or just a single linear equation. If latter is the case then you can go here to learn more:http://www.mathsisfun.com/algebra/index.html. If former case, then you can use cramer's rule to solve it. For more info, visit here:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cramer%27s_rule

You can use Desmos Graphing Calculator to learn about it, the best graphing calculator as far as I know. It contains a lots and lots of features, to help you learn graphs.

You are given 8 balls. One of the balls is heavier than the rest which are all the same weight. It is impossible to determine the heavier ball by the shape, size or lifting it up. You are given a 2-plated beam balance. Using the balance twice, how can you determine which ball is heavier.

Why are so many advertisers joining the forum nowadays and getting banned due to advertising there own math websites?

A better option is to close this topic.

Administrators and moderators have access to additional information about each member

Do they include e-mail address also?

See the graph which Ganesh posted. You will see that it converges down to X-axis and almost touches it at that value.
