Need help with this math problem. - Off-topic

So here's the problem.
Jones invested $18,000 in two accounts. One account pays 6% simple interest and the other pays 8% interest. Her total interest for the year was 1290. how much did she have in each account?
I know the answer because i looked for a solution and here it is.
6% account has x dollars 8% account has 18000-x dollars Interest = Principle * Rate * Time Interest from 6% account = x(0.06)(1) = 0.06x Interest from 8% account = (18000 -x)(0.08)(1) = 0.08(18000 - x) Total interest: 0.06x + 0.08(18000 - x) = 1290 0.06x + 1440 - 0.08x = 1290 -1440 -1440 -0.02x = -150 x = 7500 6% account has 7500 which earns 450 interest 8% account has 18000-7500 or 10500 dollars which earns 840 interest checks out to give a total of 1290 interest.
What i need to know is why was the 8% used to multiply on (18,000-x) instead of 6%?

I think the equation should read:
0.06x + 0.08y = $1290
Since the two variable represent different accounts. In this equation x would equal the amount in the account receiving 6% interest and y would equal the amount in the account receiving 8% interest. You substitute "18000 - x" because that is what y equals:
y= 18000 - x
So using substitution the equation would be:
0.06x - 0.08(18000 - x) = 1290
Now you only have 1 variable and it makes it much easier to solve the problem.

My real question is why was the 8% used to multiply with the 18,000 instead of the 6%?

You could have had it set up this way:
X=18000-y
You could have multiplied that by the 6%, but as you would work it out you'd have to get rid if the negatives at the end.
The equation would be:
.06(18000-y)-.08y=1290

This would give me a different answer.

$7500 in the 6% account would earn you $450
$10500 in the 8% account would earn you $840
The question could read: what is the bank account that would give you 6% interest 1.6 yeah!

Sorry, second equation should be
.06(18000-y)+.08y=1290

i can't even look at the numbers

If this is boring boring anyone. Try this.
If you have 1 $ which doubles (1 - 2 - 4 - 8 - 16) everyday, how long will it take to make you a billionaire.

That depends on who you talk to, as some areas of the world consider 1000 millions to be 1 billion in which case it would be 31 finally equating to
1,073,741,824
But if you go for a million millions = 1 billion it would be 41 with a final of
1,099,511,627,776
I feel sick and my brain hurts.

Geometric Sequencing
S = (first term)*(1 - r^n)/(1-r)
In this case the first term is 1, the ratio, r, is 2 (the amount of

2:Line through (-1,3) and parallel to the line 3x + 5y = 15
When x=0
3(0) + 5y = 15
5y=15
Y=3
So when x=0,.. y=3 ,...(0,3)
When y=0
3x + 5(0) = 15
3x=15
X=5
So when y=0,.. x=5,.. (5,0)
Plot both on graph, then join the two.

In 2 and 3, first isolate y.
Then take the multiple of x, and use it as a in the function I wrote earlier. x0 and y0 are the coordinates you're given

.9999999999 = 1?

Well it will only equal one if you are rounding up to the nearest whole number! Other wise it obviously is itself.

Yes, there's some skewed logic that makes .999 repeating equal 1. I'll have to look in my calc book and find it.

Guys, I'm happy for you, and Ima let you finish, but .9999...=1 is only approximate.

Did you even read the two links I provided?
Is 0.9999999999 = 1?
No. The clue is in the question.
Mathematicians make assumptions, and this is a classic case of that. They're saying, "It's so close to 1 that we may as well call it that." I'd love to see the mathematician that agrees with the thread title working for NASA and calculating safety measures for rockets. (Actually I wouldn't because it would mean people would likely die!)
It's because your calculator wants to output numbers beginning with a whole integer. 0.999 instead of .999. So it cuts off the last digit and rounds with it. 9 is greater than 5 and so it rounds up. Then carries the addition over to make it 1.
Does that make sense without having to go into great detail? Once you get into advanced mathematics, you need to learn how all the different types of calculators are programmed to operate. Cause you learn you can't trust them because of problems like the one you are using. So you learn some don't follow order of operation, some round off the last digit, some cut it off.
It's why I always liked programming my formulas and theorems in cpp and getting the answers that way with the libraries that we made in my group.

707 + 707 = 1414
1>0.999999999, but the approximation is close.
It depends on what you're working on. If you were building a part for an aircraft and needed accuracy to be +/- .0001, it's the same. However, if I ordered to trade to $0.999999999 x 10^15 for $1.00 x 10^15, you'd be getting ripped off.

An easy test to figure out if your calculator rounds the last digit or cuts it off is to do 10÷6. Is the last digit a 6 or a 7. If it's 6, it cuts off, 7 it rounds off.

Edit after so many days:
The answer doesn't matter. No matter what happens, I'll be proved right AND wrong, having been the point of countless arguments forthcoming in the thread you're about to read.
Its so pointless/repetative/annoying, I don't even wanna argue.
If you use order of operation the answer is 9.

PEMDAS, BIMDAS, whatever you want to use, the way it's written the answer is 1. You only get nine if you divide first, which is not how it works. Order of operations states that you take care of the parenthetical operators first, then multiplication, then division.
Honestly, the problem is poorly written and would never appear in a text or problem set that way.

Temple Run 2 HighScore thread

Hello.
First of all, I know we have a Gaming thread, but I think that's about general gaming on Nexus 4, recommendations, and techniques.
This thread is about only Temple Run 2. This game has clocked 5M+ downloads in first week so I think we should have one.
post your high score: with screenshot
I'll try to keep the first post updated with the username and score + screenshot of the number one player.
Let's keep it fun and game. Eh? No cheat codes please.
When you get your high score in the hall of fame you instantaneously have the bragging rights to show to your friends.
@moderators: I was not sure if this should be in Themes & Apps, so I posted it here because IMO its not an app I'm introducing so it shouldn't go there. Feel free to move it of you will

However I have played both the first and second on iOS and while enjoying the first one, the second is horrible and lagging like no other game I have ever played on iOS. I'm hoping that on android it will run much smoother. To put into perspective, my high score on the first one was ~18 mil, in TR2 I think I may have been able to break 1mil only once.

True but I'm still level 8.
You need 1 million total distance and 500k total coins before you can even get to level 9. And that takes ages
I'm sure there's lots of people out there with higher scores though. I saw 36 mil on some iphone screenshot.

Proof or gtfo.
AW: Temple Run 2 HighScore thread
Just completely smashed my previous record, which was around 8 million. Got almost 14 million now. Still need to get to level 9 though. It takes ages...

Still need to get to level 9 . I probably could easily get a higher score but saving my gems for future much higher high-scores!

I believe the score should be supplemented by the number of retries you used (i.e., SAVE ME via the Green Gems). I'll start. Here is my score with three retries/save-mes.
Here is my low score after 44 tries. Hmmmm....

Oh, I meant, the SAVE me option. Lol. You cannot possibly afford 44 save mes cause it would have costed you 400 gems by then. Lol.

Divide by zero... brainstorm with zero and infinity calculations

What happens when you divide a number by 0? Since this is a dev forum, we know some maths what is your theory?
I especially love this one:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_fallacy#Division_by_zero
Funny facts about them: (legend a = any number (including ∞), f = finite number)
a * 0 = 0;
∞ / f = ∞;
1 / ∞ ~ 0;
∞ * a = ∞;
2 * a = a; (theory above)
Anything else, you post it
0 = nothing
when you divide something by nothing
you open up the time/space warp hole
Sorry just posted what you had done in the url. Look before you leap!
Any CPU will throw an interrupt/exception if you try it.
This happens.

From another thread we have:
x²-x² = x²-x²
On the left side: Take out x as a common factor.
x(x-x) = x²-x²
Treat the right side as the difference of two squares.
x(x-x) = (x+x)(x-x)
Cancel out the (x-x) on both sides of the equation.
x(x-x) = (x+x)(x-x)
x = (x+x)
x = 2x
1 = 2

Ummm, that's flawed logic
x = 2x
0 = x
So x = 2x would be correct
0 = 2 * 0

To OP.
You'd have to ask Chuck Norris since he's the only one that can do it
When you divide by zero, you blend a blender inside of another blender.

Wut! That's cool. Anyway division by zero equals to infinity since zero fits infinite times into whatever number you pick. For negative numbers it's negative (-)infinity.

I'm not really sure if division by zero equals infinity. I think the limit of a/b as b approaches zero is infinity. Thus a/0 cannot be defined.

Divide by zero is called "UNDEFINED"

Stop with the memes!
I'm in advanced math. My friend who is boss at math says dividing by 0 is like getting nothing, and nothing is the same thing as 0.
