I wasn't entirely truthfull. Still, 4, 6, 7, 8 are all 'A' solutions. I went back over them and googled some words, now I do understand those. I guess all I showed was that if you don't want to learn, you're not gon

minor chords continuously slide into a major one hasn't really been done by orchestra's in the hundreds of years before MIDI either. I don't think this is MIDIs fault.

The server should pay tax on the tip. If I understand correctly, tips now go to the server, but the restaurant owes tax on the tip. So the more the server makes in tips, the more the restaurant owes in tax. Therefore the server should deduc

I struggle with this a lot, too. Maybe "complex numbers" is a misnomer, and we should call them "complex operations", or "complex methods". I have a hunch that for math people complex numbers are tied really cl

You might have hit the nail on the head here. The belgian king once resigned for a single day so the parliament could pass a law on abortion. Could Linus have pulled of a similiar stunt? https://www.nytimes.com/1990/04&

How I've come to view math is: all math is made up, parts of math seem to correspond with nature (physics), and can be used to build things (engineering).

“Imagine taking all the numbers that you could reach by counting,” I said. “Then add one more, after all of them. That is infinity.” Disclaimer: I'm an adult that doesn't understand infinity. If you "add one more" you&#x
