Oh you have NO idea...

You shouldn't hate fractions >_> It's like saying you hate multiplication and division

Ewww. I was eating something and I saw that and I laughed and now everything is everywhere!

Hahahah skipping over every post until you find Guido's and Squeek's posts XD

I guess.

**GG_Guru** · 10-13-2009, 04:28 PM

I dunno man, I just find math to be one of my main weaknesses.

Like there's bound to be at least ONE class that you don't like and mine just happens to be math.

NFD · 10-13-2009, 04:29 PM

I wonder why.

Mine was Accounting but that was because the teacher.

I started to read the questions Rubix posted but every time I just end up watching that cute little asian chick girl like 20 times in a row. she's ****ing hypnotizing.

**TC_Halogen** · 10-13-2009, 04:29 PM

Just thought I'd say it but...this is in the wrong forum. >_>

**GG_Guru** · 10-13-2009, 04:30 PM

Dude AJ we know man.

We know.

leonid · 10-13-2009, 04:30 PM

I understand. Many of my buddies hate math to death as well =P

That being said, I'm weak against any subjects that aren't math or computer science.

**GG_Guru** · 10-13-2009, 04:33 PM

Like P.E.

Ohhhhhhh!
Burn.

Lol.

Did you mean E[(Y-X)^2], instead of [E(Y-X)]^2? I tried to solve the latter one.

I guess the former one is 1/3.. I could be wrong lol

2. 9/19

3-1. about .3664
3-2. you are expected to lose a quarter

Var(X) = 1/48 is correct. And yes [E(Y-X)]^2 is what I was after (the E(X) is its own expression and so E(X)^2 means you are squaring the output), and yes, 1/3 is correct -- nice job!

3-1. That answer is way too high
3-2. Nope nope

NFD · 10-13-2009, 04:35 PM

Oh **** we get to watch Apocalypse Now next week in US History

**GG_Guru** · 10-13-2009, 04:35 PM

Rubix finds this thread as a scapegoat to show off his intellectuality and geniuseses'.

High five.

jugglinguy · 10-13-2009, 04:37 PM

jealousy

leonid · 10-13-2009, 04:39 PM

FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUU stupid mistake >_> whoa I feel dumb

3-1. about .0458
3-2. $-3/8

MrRubix · 10-13-2009, 04:39 PM

I was good at most subjects in school but my weakness is definitely History. I just cbf. Luckily, history is primarily memorization + essays, but it just was not fun for me.

I actually can't remember for the life of me what math class I had in 9th grade... I already knew multivariable calc though by 10th grade, and we only had Calc AB senior year lmao. In college, my first math class was supposed to be an augmented Calc BC-style course but I tested out of it and jumped right into vector/multivar calc. Math is pretty dry **** though, and I feel like it gets really impractical after multivar calc. I prefer just being well-versed in math that I would actually use... real analysis courses can suck my cock.

3-1. Yep! It's basically a negative binomial distribution.
3-2. Nooooope.

In other words: This **** is not important and does not benefit my future career(s) in any way.
