I'm just curious how old everyone here is. I get the feeling that I'm probably one of, if not the oldest person here. I'm 33 and remember the days of having to get up to change the channel on the TV, and b4 there was even cable TV. I'm so old, I used to play Pong for cripes sake!!!

So, how old are you all?

Why was that dog year thing made up? The dods live on the same planet as us, and they got their own year system! Weird.....

I'm between 10 and 30

ok sorry..there are too many mistakes in my equation and i'm am not from another dimension
lets try again

{[52+(18-5)+X] 23.532} / 35 = 17.321028571428571428571428571429

You will never know my age ha ha ha
Besides people judge you by your age there was this 13 yr old teenager who gave out stock advice and he made £200,000 cus they did not know his age.Now i really wouln't mind £200,000 think of it a Supercomputer with 90 gb of ram and a nice broadbnd connection.Well actully that might cost more.

argh...

The problem to solve is:
52+(18-5)+X*23.532/35-17.2=0


First, let's work on the left hand side of your equation, the 52+(18-5)+X*23.532/35-17.2
This means, for instance, to see if it can be simplified at all.
18-5 evaluates to 13
52+(18-5) evaluates to 65

Multiply 23.532 and X

Multiply 1 and X


The X just gets copied along.

X

X*23.532 evaluates to 23.532X

To divide X by 1


The X just gets copied along in the numerator.

The answer is X

X*23.532/35 evaluates to 0.672343X

52+(18-5)+X*23.532/35 evaluates to 65+0.672343X

65 - 17.2 = 47.8

The answer is 47.8+0.672343X

52+(18-5)+X*23.532/35-17.2 evaluates to 47.8+0.672343X

So, all-in-all, the left hand side of your equation can be written as: 47.8+0.672343X


Now, let's work on the right hand side of your equation, the 0
The right hand side of your equation can be written as: 0



So with these (any) simplifications, the equation we'll set out to solve is:

47.8+0.672343X = 0


Move the 47.8 to the right hand side by subtracting 47.8 from both sides, like this:


From the left hand side:
47.8 - 47.8 = 0

The answer is 0.672343X

From the right hand side:
0 - 47.8 = -47.8

The answer is -47.8


Now, the equation reads:
0.672343X = -47.8
To isolate the X, we have to divide both sides of the equation by the other variables
around the X on the left side of the equation.




The last step is to divide both sides of the equation by 0.672343 like this:

To divide X by 1


The X just gets copied along in the numerator.

The answer is X

0.672343X ÷ 0.672343 = X


-47.8 ÷ 0.672343 = -71.0947

The solution to your equation is:
X = -71.0947







I tried to solve it for 10 times, but i keep getting -71 :(

allright, arcuss, i understand how old you are. I am 98 in dog years. Lian, we are never going to get your age, unless we track your ip, find your house, go bang on your door, and ask anybody in the house. But thats not going to happen.

Wow, I'm kinda surprised. I thought I was the only "nerd" still playing video games after the age of 30. I'll probably still be playing when I'm 40. Jedi Knight 35 will be out by then. :D
