Yay!!!

(3x^2-2)(2x+4)-2x^2+6x+7

Math sucks... :?
(I thought I was FINALLY done with algebra... WTF is the point of having that in Geometry?)

What's really bad is that would have been an easy problem for me last year, but now I don't remember how to do ANYTHING. #-o

...now here's something I remember.
14x-31=12x+8

That's like Pre-Algebra :lol:

Lol, solving two linears for x. I wish specialist maths was that easy. Trigonometric Calculus anyone? With related rates too!

Wow. Kevin Pereira (A G4 host for Attack of The Show) plays Coheed and Cambria's "Welcome Home" on expert and gets high 90s for completion on drums and blew out they're drummer by playing the RockBand part on the real drumset. Haha.

Ah crap, I forgot to use FOIL on a Binomial... >.<*

BTW: How would that second one not work? =/
(I'll over-simplify it for you...)

14x-31=12x+8
14x-31-12x=12x+8-12x
2x-31=8
2x=39
x=19.5

Is it really necessary to bring up math this early? Calculus (optional) in semester 2 ftl.

$15 an hour isn't amazing. I have a job paying $11.40 an hour and all I had to do was walk in the store and ask to be in the electronics department. I basically just talk to customers all day and every now and then sell stuff. Not bad for part time. :)

Hell, if it wasn't for school, I could probably be assistant supervisor or even supervisor for the department and make $13 or $16+ an hour.

Not amazing, you're right, but considering the job pretty much fell in my lap ("You want a job?" "Sure." "Okay, you start tomorrow."), it's pretty freakin' sweet. :mrgreen:

Say that to my future six figure income. (According to CFNC) :wink:

Dual bachelors and a Master's FTW. :P

Holy crap, I just added that up...
Working a 9-5, that's $48 an hour. :shock:
(48*8)(5)(52)

Well, I guess that's what you'd get for around 20 years of schooling.
That's also, of course, presuming I can get into UNC Chapel HIll. :lol:

In other news, the power just flickered... twice. :?

Haha, notice the according to CFNC... (Income Predictors per Carrer choice lol)

And @ Haz: I'll hopefully get that sometime around my senior year. I'm hoping to get a 240, then an Evo, then a G at some point in college.
I'm way to picky with cars. =S

(And before we start with some more BS, notice the keyword: hope.)

You plan on going through 2 brand new cars while in college? :| Talk about being economical.

And that "Income Predictor" doesn't predict how much you will be making the moment you leave college and get a job, it usually shows how much you'll end up earning after anywhere between 5 and 25 years experience at what you do. Good luck finding an employer who will pay a new graduate 6 figures.

I think I speak for at least a few others on the forum when I suggest that you should stop bragging about things that haven't even happened yet... I'm sure you have a great imagination, but you're only 14 years old, and the world ain't as pretty when you have to pay for things other than car and computers.

Jeysus... I plan to get something cheap and decent if I can in uni, and then get an R32 GTR when I graduate... neither are exactly new or expensive.

Actually, it does (as accurately as possible)... and did I ever say I'd be making 6 figures straight out? I think not.

The minimum salary in the state was around 60k, with nothing but that bachelors. I'm (hopefully) going to have my bachelors, another 2 year degree, and my master's. I'm obviously going to have to get experience before I get the job I'm working for.

Geez, just shut up if you're going to make assumptions. I"m sore as heck, have a f***ed up shoulder, and maybe even a minor concussion seeing as it's hard to stand straight, I don't feel like dealing with BS. :wink:

Oh yeah, newsflash... you're 16. Don't preach. #-o

Don't be such a baby. Just because you're sore as heck or whatever, it doesn't mean you can go around telling people to shut up. There are millions of people in the world who are worse off than you, myself included.

We are just having a discussion here, so if you're too out of it and can't be bothered to listen to anyone then gtfo. Nobody cares about your personal problems.
Don't feel like discussing/listening/taking advice? Then don't post.
