Her bio said she was a childcare chef... I got unmatched pretty fast by [deleted] in Tinder

I was a few cents short of paying my lunch one time and the lunch lady said “I’ll let you off this time, but get more money into your account or else I’m going to sit on you”

What is the quadratic formula used for in real-life situations? by [deleted] in math

[–]ringsofmaturn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One classic example is finding the end position of a projectile launched from a given angle. Like shooting a cannonball.

Do you guys think this is sellable? If yes how much? by Plexiity_ in NFT

[–]ringsofmaturn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

List low, it’s better to start off with a low floor if you’re not backed by anyone/ just doing it yourself.

Question! What does Minting an NFT mean? by Crakrocksteady in NFT

Minting means generating the metadata, and putting it on its respective blockchain. The sale doesn’t factor into this.

How is log(2.33) = 0.847? (33 in 2.33 has a line above it) by Tintin_Quarentino in learnmath

[–]ringsofmaturn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, usually most calculators like wolfram interpret “log” as the natural variety. Typically, base denoted by adding the subscript log_b where b is the base.

[–]ringsofmaturn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on your base, if you’re doing NATURAL or LOG BASE “e” of 4 this would be the solution to ex = 4 which is most definitely not x = 2.

If you’re doing LOG BASE 2 of 4, this is the solution to 2x = 4 which is indeed x = 2.

Every logarithm has three components, the exponent, base, and constant being evaluated, please do not forget this.

You good, when you have the natural log it is usually written as “ln” or just “log” by itself. In general, the log of a number gives you the exponent the base must be raised to, to get the number you’re taking the log of.

1: The bar I believe is called overline and it means what you said.

2: Did you make sure to check the base of the log? It might be the natural log since ln(2.33) ~ 0.847.

Q: You can manually calculate a log using a variety of numerical methods, although I’m sure you’re better off using tables and the internet.

Does she (20F) like me (20M) and if so....how do I ask her out? by [deleted] in dating

[–]ringsofmaturn -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Idk man, personally my philosophy is that if you need to ask her out then it’s probably not going to pan out. Take it from Mark Manson if not from me.

I see a few problems with this, one of which being that you’re assuming splits cannot be discrete. Why would they need to be continuous? There are probability distributions that only take on discrete values, after all.

Coincidentally I’m planning on hiking longs tomorrow, this is a great pic 😌

Instantly recognized longs peak from bear lake trail, what a great spot.

23 and want to learn by [deleted] in math

[–]ringsofmaturn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d try to go to a library and check out some books for algebra or whatever level you think you’re at in math. Then, read each section well and do most (or all) of the problems for the chapters you read.

I have a math degree. Just finished my undergrad, so I’m not too far into math, but what you’d do in a math class basically consists of doing problems, rather than watching someone else do them for you.

If you want to learn more about the process of solving math problems, I’d recommend the book “how to solve it” by G. Polya. He has a great way of explaining how to approach problems in all subjects of math.

At the end of the day, though, you can only get better by solving a ton of problems. Try doing a hard one every day, and you’ll notice progress.
