The Math Help Topic

[Jman]

Yep, I think we have one, but this is for those who need math questions answered, or needs homework help or something like that. I don't know where to put this topic, so I stuck it here.

My question:
How do you write a compound function?

 

[Holy Crap]

I have one: What on earth is that?

 

[Xenon]

If anyone's willing to help me out on a seven page essay on Shakespeare I'd be happy for them to give me a hand

 

[Holy Crap]

That's not maths!

 

[Hunchman801]

How do you write a compound function?

Either f(g(x)) or fog(x). Both notations are used.

Actually, I was thinking about making a topic like this in Maths today

I found an awesome way of doing long multiplication without a calculator XD

 

[stan423321]

Well, we have an easy way of this in 4th primary class.

 

[Xenon]

Yeah, I also learned how to multiply a very easy way a long time ago. Perhaps we use different techniques though. I use the Nappiers Bones method.

 

[Hunchman801]

I use the Nappiers Bones method.

I use my calculator

I believe it's called looking at the back of the book where all the answers are.

 

[El Dango]

What's 2+2!!!???
Kidding. But if i ever get trouble with my homework, i just go here.

 

[Serza5]

2+2=72
Lolz, I miss fosters.

 

[Holy Crap]

I use the Nappiers Bones method.

I use my calculator

The people at my school have become dependant on calculators.
"What's 5x7?"
"uhhh...let me check...."

 

[Xenon]

I know all my times tables up to 100 in my head now. Got so used to reciting them.

 

[Holy Crap]

So, you could tell me 67x86 in an instant?

 

[Xenon]

I meant the answer has to be <100.

 

[Holy Crap]

Oh. That's completely different, 10 year olds can do that.

You caught me

 

[Holy Crap]

I can't always do taht because sometimes there aren't any in the back...or they're wrong.

 

[Xenon]

Plus you'd never learn how to do the calculations
