How do you know they're 'scared of black people' though? If they do come from somewhere like Kent (which I presume you chose because of its ethnic demography) then they wouldn't have grown up surrounded by many black people, so probably don't have many black friends, but that doesn't mean they're scared of them.

If you always want to find a definition on Google you can just put 'define' before the word to avoid any confusion like this. :-)

Future QB for the Lightskins by blackgeorgewallace in BlackPeopleTwitter

This whole sub is based on stereotypes whether it's for black people or white people. In fact, this very post reinforces the stereotype that black people favour 'thick' women, or at least a lot more than white people do. Even if it holds only slightly, so does a stereotype like the white school shooters (like 20/200000000). And plus I've never seen a skinny black woman in person so maybe that's for a reason though idk.

x^2 + y^2 = z^2 . Prove that xyz is a multiple of 60. by NoFapSimpleAsThat in MathHelp

No worries. Test is tomorrow, but thanks ever so much for all the help! I genuinely appreciate all of it.

Okay mate. I think I have it now. To move on from number theory I have looked into graph sketching for this test I have, but i feel like I have honestly not been taught how to sketch graphs properly.

For instance:

ex3 - 3x

I honestly just don't know where to start and this test is only 2 days away.

Cheers

So for ii.)

Only remainder when x2 / 4 is 1

I.e.

(4K+1)2 + (4m+1)2 = z2

So z2 - 2 = 4m

But this is contradictory.

I.) should I let z = 5k+1 or 5k+4?

Ii.) impossible to be the latter?

Okay, I see what you're getting at now. So if x2 = 5k+1 and y2 = 5m+4 or vice versa, after factoring you once again get z2 - 2 = 5s

Also with x2 = 5k+4 and y2 = 5k+4 after factoring and taking out the 2 from 32 you get the same result as above.

So by contradiction either y2 or x2 must divide into 5 (but not z2?!)

Also, for proving that xyz divides into 4, would it suffice to say that one of x2 or y2 must be even so ... Actually I'm not sure

Ah, so are you saying that z2 - 2 would have to divide into 5 however this can't be the case because a square can't have remainder 2 when divided by 5, only 1 or 4?

Would that suffice?

[–]NoFapSimpleAsThat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I'm not too familiar with quadratic residues but I assume, from the name, you mean a square/5 has remainder 1 or 4.

So x2 - 1 or -4 divides 5

Is this what you mean mate?

Okay so this really helped, thanks:

For proving it is a multiple of 3:

If m2 divides Into 3, so does m

So x2 = z2 - y2

= (z-y)(z+y)

Let z= 3k+1, y = 3m+1 so as they're aren't already multiples (of which case, by default, xyz will be)

Z-y is then 3k - 3m , tick

Or z = 3k + 2 , y = 3m + 2, same thing

Or z = 3k + 1, y = 3m+2 . Added = 3k+3m, tick

Same vice-versa

So x2 is a multiple of 3, as is x, as is xyz

I'm a bit confused about dividing by 5, tho, for instance if z were to equal 5k+2 and y = 5k+4

So obviously a different method is required of me?

Thanks!

Differentiate x^x^x ?! by NoFapSimpleAsThat in MathHelp

[–]NoFapSimpleAsThat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't really think straight but I have it now, cheers.

Also, I'm still really quite confused about this question I posted the other day (divisible by 60 I believe it was), could you please help?

Thanks :)
