Math Is Fun Forum

Woot! Official high school graduate here. I can proudly say that I finished 5th in my class (even though it's only out of 115 ppl or so). Can't wait to start college. Woo times flies!! Here's today's joke:

A man took his Rottweiler to the vet and said to him, "My dogs cross-eyed. Is there anything you can do for it?"
"Well," said the vet "let's have a look at him" The vet picks the dog up by the ears and has a good look at its eyes.

"Well," says the vet "I'm going to have to put him down."

"Just because he's cross-eyed?" say's the man.

"No, because he's heavy," says the vet.

Hope everyone had (or is having, it's still morning here) a good morning a day to follow suit, here's the joke for today:

Two guys are walking down the street when a mugger approaches them and demands their money. They both grudgingly pull out their wallets and begin taking out their cash. Just then one guy turns to the other and hands him a bill. "Here’s that $20 I owe you," he says.

Up early again today, but this time it's for my AP calc AB exam O.o
Wish me luck and here's the joke for today:

An old man was critically ill. Feeling that death was near, he
called his lawyer. "I want to become a lawyer. How much is
it for the express degree you told me about?"

"It's $50,000," the lawyer said. "But why? You'll be dead soon,
why do you want to become a lawyer?"

"That's my business! Get me the course!"

Four days later, the old man got his law degree. His lawyer
was at his bedside, making sure his bill would be paid.

Suddenly the old man was racked with fits of coughing and
it was clear that this would be the end. Still curious, the
lawyer leaned over and said, "please, before it's too late,
tell me why you wanted to to get a law degree so badly before
you died?"

In a faint whisper, as he breathed his last, the old man said,
"One less lawyer . . ."

Actually up before the crack of noon today. XD (This is what being off school does to me) Anyways here's an early one:

A husband and wife stepped up to view the body of his mother-in-law. As he began to cry, his wife punched him and said: Why are you crying, you never liked my mother anyway. I know he replied, I thought I saw her move!

Define cheating...

Define Jesus...

Define Isn't...     

Now for today's joke:

Two dumb fishermen decided to rent a boat on a lake for their favorite sport. After fishing for 4 hours at various places around the lake with no luck at all they decided to try one more spot before calling it quits, Suddenly things started to happen, and they caught their limit inside of twenty minutes. Paul said, "Hey we should mark this spot, so next time we will know where to come", Jim says good idea, and he took out a can of spray paint and made a large X on the floor of the boat....to mark the spot.... With that Paul says, why did you do that, now anyone who rents this boat will know where to fish.

Not touching that one, as I'm quite averse to having some vital organs ripped out by Jane Fairfax.

Tis funny.

^a quarter (1/4) plus 3 quarters (3/4) = a whole (1)... so with the "small bit of everything else" are you like more than one person? Cuz if you have a growth like that or something you might need to get it checked out. O.o

And since this turned into a topic about our ancestry I'm 3/4 Sicilian and 1/4 Cherokee.

Could you be more specific so we can help you?

First you start by changing

into improper fractions.
They become

When you multiply

together you multiply the numerators (top) and denominators (bottom) together and you get

which you can convert from improper fraction to the mixed number

.

Hope this helps.

If s=2b the you're sides are (2b), (2b), and (2b). So if all the sides are equal then the triangle is an equilateral triangle. And the area is half of base times height. In this case though the base is already split into two equal parts (b) so the area is b times a (since b is exactly half of the total base).

Hope this helped.

Here's all the steps and the answer:

There isn't supposed to be a 9 there. I need to check my stuff b4 I post it. I'm sorry again. I'll just ask my teacher tomorrow, my mistakes are really adding up and not making this easy. Sorry.
