mathmatitio- heres a problem u will never get 1+1=? come on try it out!

stewie · 2005-05-25 04:53:23

thats a tough one, let me reach for my calculator...

stewie · 2005-05-25 04:54:26

Yep. The answer is syntax error

Roraborealis · 2005-05-25 06:43:21

I've used three sheets of paper, and four hours, and I still don't have the answer.

I give up.

MathsIsFun · 2005-05-25 09:34:45

Perhaps if we used some Algebra on it

Start With: 1+1=x
Subtract x from both sides: 1+1-x=x-x
Subtract 1 from both sides: 1+1-x-1=x-x-1
Simplify: 1-x=-1

I think that is as far as I can simplify it.

Zach · 2005-05-25 22:00:06

Hm, a very hard problem.

Roraborealis · 2005-05-26 05:06:45

Is there even a solution?

Zach · 2005-05-27 10:22:48

My mind is stretched to its limits.

Mr T · 2005-05-30 22:58:49

i have the answer you idiots. she said at the start 1+1=?
a little bit of logic is all that is needed.

MathsIsFun · 2005-05-30 23:09:37

Of COURSE, how silly of us ... it was a statement, not a question.

thinkdesigns · 2005-07-27 22:16:01

i get it so ?=2, but it wasn't even a question, OR WAS IT? *spooky music*

shocamefromebay · 2007-06-06 09:52:13

well my teacher told me that if u simplify it down to where both sides are the same number, then every solution works for that problem.
so maybe..
hmmm
i multiplied both sides by zero
and both sides were the same number.
so taht must mean taht 1+1 = the universe
w00t

I wanna see...
I'll use the |img| command in place of the |url| command.

Geez, it's gone!! I guess I'm too late. :sad

1+1 =10

if the base is 2 ;-)

MathsIsFun · 2007-08-09 09:21:23

Indeed so!

mason777 · 2007-11-05 15:16:24

OMG thats the hardest problem ever. When i got my calculater it blew up on me with confusion flying every were.... the answer is 19,672.

man that is AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ezra12145 · 2007-12-07 15:36:27

what? doesn't one 1+1=2????????

How is that hard?

NullRoot · 2007-12-07 15:46:02

1+1=2...

That's a little too convenient, don't you think?

You're making erroneous assumptions by doing that. What we need from you is a rigorous proof that your hypothesis is correct.

mikau · 2007-12-07 17:13:55

proof 1 + 1 cannot be solved

let x = 1+1
then

this is a 5th degree polynomial and thus we cannot find its roots! qed.

Nvm I think I have a proof:

Assume: 1 + 1 = 2

Now add perform additive inverses on both sides:

1 + (-1) + 1 + (-1) = 2 + (-2)

Therefore, 0 + 0 = 0

So 0 = 0

So 1 + 1 = 2

mikau · 2007-12-07 18:19:40

even the dinosaurs couldn't prove this one: http://www.qwantz.com/archive/001092.html

And it's so true. I see Patrick Stewart all the time on the Television playing that Brain Training game.

That guy must be bored! Let's throw him a party! With strobe lights, streamers, and a budget DJ.

Make it so, Number One! (I mean you Identity, of course.)
