Confessions

[JDog]

I confess that I did the same thing. :D

[Aureliano]

I confess I swear way too much sometimes. And I have a temper problem.

I confess that makes two of us.

[Uximadesk]

That makes three of us.
I confess I like getting older people mad just for the heck of it.

[Rinku]

I confess I like annoying older people too, especially the counseler at school just to see the look on her face. (Sovelis knows what I'm talking about  ;))

[Keaton]

I confess I am incredibly sexy.

[Vaati]

I confess I don't admire anyone but Vaati! Haha! :D

[o0Zelda0o]

I confess I cheated in my History test today.  ???

[Peka]

I confess I did very well on my finals today!  :D

[BaconWarrior]

I confess I hate english.... :(

[MagmarFire]

I confess that I love mathematics. :D

Heh, I even came up with a division by zero theory. :P

[Twilight Wolf]

I confess that I've forgotten how to do proofs over Christmas Vacation.

What's the theory you have on division by zero, MagmarFire? Sounds pretty interesting.

[o0Zelda0o]

I confess I can't stand I.C.T

What's the theory you have on division by zero, MagmarFire? Sounds pretty interesting.

Well, if you insist... ;)

Well, to start, we all know that zero has no real reciprocal. After all, if it were, (according to my theory) it would be 1/0. As we all know, we can't divide by zero in the real number set. But! We also can't take the square root of a negative number. I mean, after all it was Euler (I think) who screwed the rules and thought up the concept for i, so why couldn't I screw them and divide by zero? Know what I mean? :P

Anyvay, let's just say that zero's reciprocal is 1/0. That would mean, of course, that 1/0 x 0 = 0/0 = 1. (0/0 is technically not a real number, but if you can divide by zero, you should be allowed to reverse the process, which leads to 0/0.)

Next, we know the product of two perpendicular lines' slopes is -1. We can't use vertical lines because they don't have a defined slope, but alas, DIVISION BY ZERO GIVES ME SUPER-STRENGTH!!! We have x (slope of a vertical line) times 0 (slope of a horizontal line) = -1. After solving for x, we get x=-1/0, which I refer to as (null).

Where does this have any "plausible" use, you might ask? Let's try putting it in the Point-Slope Theorem. Let's say we have a vertical line that goes through the point (6, 12). Just by looking at it, you can see that its equation is going to be x=6, but we can "prove" it using (null).

After plugging all the numbers in, we get this:

y-12=(null)(x-6) which also gets us y-12=-1/0*(x-6)

Now let's put it in slope-intercept form. But we should get rid of that zero in the right side of the equation... We do that by multiplying both sides by zero, giving us...

0=-1(x-6)

Now we solve for x. First, let's divide both sides by -1. We get this:

0=x-6

Now add 6 to both sides to get...

x=6 !

OMZVG! dats teh same equashun as b4!!! O_o




Y' get me? :P

I confess Im mad because they delyed the release date of Super Smash Bros. Brawl again.......... Its as of now Mar. 9  :(

Y' get me? :P

You know what? I confess that I actually understood all of that. That's a very nice theory you have there!
