    You guys should try parametric equations ._.

    If practice makes perfect and perfection is impossible, why practice?
    Oh, wait... No need to practice. iHax.

    Do you even know what is the point of solving an equation? Finding value of a letter in a particular situation.

    Next time you call someone idiot, think about your own words Thanks.

    You can state that a letter will take the value 1 if you wish.. You could do the same with X=3 but then, at the end, it would do 3=6, which would be as wrong as 1=2

    Easy noodle, easy
    Try to make some differential equations
    And try to find the "e" value



    Right now, I'm working on this :



    Sounds cool, doesn't it ?

    actually no, it'd still end up with 0=0. As you said before, if 2(2-2)=(2+2)(2-2), (2+2)(2-2)= 4(0)= 0, and 2(2-2)=2(0)=0, so 0=0 making the x be equal to any number, there is no 1=2, or any variation of the such. Just 0=0.

    We firstly fix :
    X=1 and by definition, X = X (Don't tell me you don't understand ._.)
    <=> X² = X² (square)
    <=> X² - X² = X² - X² (subtract X²)
    <=> X(X - X) = (X + X)(X - X) (Factorize, Note that a²-a²=a(a-a), and that a²-b²=(a+b)(a-b))
    <=> X = X + X (Simplify)
    <=> X = 2 X (addition)
    <=> 1 = 2 (because X = 1)

    1=2 ??

    So hard to explain >.<
    Limitations stuff like dat

    You stated at start that X=1, and at the end, you get X=2X, if you replace X by 1, you get 1=2..

    About that, yeah.. that is the reason why dividing by 0 bugs it all it gives crazy stuff.

    You just said aboce that "x can be equal to any number", in another word, X=X could give 1=2 or 455=42422424.. x).. x would be equal to any number.. and any number would be equal to any number

    X equals any number, but it has to be the same in the equation so that you get the equations to be equal, that means when you start X could equal 1, 2, -1000000 and the equation would work, you took it out of context and incorrectly used the x equals.

    If you find a letter in equation you just take it out cuz it doesnt belong, if thats the point for u, i would guess you are just a editor for math books

    The point of an equation is (most of the time) to find an expression/a value of an unknown letter.

    Example :

    3x^2 - 4x +1 = 0
    x1 = 1/3 x2 = 1

    Here you have an example of an equation, with a letter.

    Your cool with math and equations, brilliant. Can you help me? I have some real-life math problems, I know that what we are currently doing is wrong and its bugging me. So here are the facts:

    1. These are involved: A = Zonal values, B = Fair market values, and C = Selling price. Among the 3 choices, we need to pick the highest to determine the Z.
    2. To get Z, all you have to do is multiply 6% x (the highest number among A,B and C).

    Here is the real-life problem I encounter:

    The above statements involves the computation of the capital gains tax (Z). To get Z, as said previously, I need to choose the highest amount among A, B, and C. and then multiply it by 6%. In capital gains tax, the seller of the property is the one liable to pay the tax since he gained profit from the sale. Now, if the buyer is stating on the document that he'll pay the tax (Z) instead of the seller, we need to add Z to the selling price. We add because, the buyer will now pay more, instead of paying only the Selling price (C), he needs to pay Z as well. So Z becomes part of the selling price.

    Question: How do I determine Z?

    Can you please give me the formula? Much appreciated if you can help me solve this problem.
    The Forum here is more FUN!

    Can you please give me the formula? Much appreciated if you can help me solve this problem.
    As for this problem, i'm not american, so I'm not 100% sure I fully understood the sentences (Zonal values is the range of prices?) and Z is the tax the seller has got to pay once he sells the stuff?

    However, I could do those stuff :

    If the seller is clever, he will try to get profit from its sales, so that,
    Z=(6%)C because he will sell at his selling price (C); which is higher than B (which is the market price which is under C if he wants to make profit)

    If the buyer has got to pay the tax (Z), he will have to pay (Tax+selling price): Z+C=C+(6%)C= (106%)C (106% of the price the seller wanted to sell the stuff for), the seller will get (C-B)$, since he bought the stuff for B$ and sells C$ and the rest will go as a tax.

    106%C-Z=C so the seller should get ((106%C-Z)-B)$ profit, and the buyer pays (106%C) and get the item


    Should be this Nevertheless, I didn't implement A to esuations so I don't think it is ok :/.. I don't know what "zonal values" mean so..
