y = x + 6 y = 2x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The answer is wrong.The correct answer is x=6.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

omgoodness- i was over thinking that one!!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's wrong, riyadh?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oops lol, x = 6 right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@sassyj this method is known as method of substitution x + 6 = 2 x 6 = 2x-x 6 = x :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because 6+6=12?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@sassyj come to me some time ,I'll teach u some math.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ riyadh lol!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know that 6+6=12- I was just ASKING if that was how the answer was determined

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you dont have to be sarcastic

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@riyadh this place is for teaching only....................double lol :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ikr, but on a serious note, sassyj, use the method aperogalics just used

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6+6=12, 2x=12, x=6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I was trying to UNDERSTAND, not just copy. Thanks all for "helping".

OpenStudy (anonymous):

"helping" and LOLing at me in the process

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the point of the technique is not to rely on guess work, but follow a series of steps to solve for the unknow

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we weren't "loling" at you, we were "loling" at riyadh for his comment

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@sassyj this method is used for verifying :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

his comment was uncalled for

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm going to school now. Have a great day.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok....i think you did not understand that we were "loling" at his attitude and nothing on your part, but good day to you too anyway...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@findme leave it now:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

as always :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have to get up every morning at 4am to try to find out how to understand this ridiculous subject (probably the first subject I will ever fail). My father cant help me because he isnt "good at math" but he expects me to figure it out in my "stupid head". So instead of copying your help, I tried to rationalize it so that I can learn and not just cheat. Instead of LOLing at someone's ignorant comments, maybe let them know that everyone who needs help isnt stupid.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@sassyj i totallu agee with u and if u ever need my help in maths and physics especially you can ask me anytime:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sign....if were are here this early in the morning helping others, why would you think that it's due to that mentality you have stated we have?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you, Aperogalics- I appreciate that offer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@sassyj did u get last question??????????

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@findme This is how I came to that conclusion: (copy and paste) riyadh @sassyj come to me some time ,I'll teach u some math. findme @ riyadh lol! Aperogalics @riyadh this place is for teaching only....................double lol :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but, what about this? "ok....i think you did not understand that we were "loling" at his attitude and nothing on your part, but good day to you too anyway..."

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just cut the crap @sassyj and @findme both

OpenStudy (anonymous):

love too, don't like sensitive cr@p....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, you tried to save it. still, an LOL (and especially a double LOL) tends to mean that you find something humerous in one's words. but thanks for saying it wasnt anything against me- because it did originally look that way.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm "cutting the crap" now, LOL. Gotta catch that school bus or I will hear it from Daddy-O. (double LOL)
