Well, I don't believe that's a fair conclusion based just on the fact we observe most people are "innumerate" and "hate maths". Most people also never had the fortune of having someone describe why resolving qu

I am fine with the research results, it's important to note that it does not control for pedagogical variance. [Edit: I'd like refer to the last 2 paragraphs on the Discussion section to point out other issues in the paper the aut

Isn't that the case though? Where's the separation of powers or the rule of law in the US? To be clear, I'm not favoring any kind of such action, just holding the honesty of the statement.

> The fact that such a fuss is being made about low-grade oil is a concern in itself. Keep in mind there's a lot of 'idle' refining capacity at the southeastern coast of the US which was built for heavy oil.

You can use some form of real extensions, e.g. the extended real line (+inf, -inf is often useful for programmers) or the projectively extended real line (+inf = -inf). This is not about infinity in math not being a _specific_ value, it can
