Good Job Dawn! I had most of those I think, but I was really late.

*wonders who Dawn will nominate*

Great job Dawn!

This competition wasn't about who sent it in first, if you had got them all right and sent it in last, you still could've won. It was the tie breaker question which gave Dawn the HOH position.

Argh! I got all but the Parrot and the Pig (I put Cow) and was off by one on the bonus. I wanted to put 9, but then decided to do 10...u.u

Trust your first instinct. :)

By the way, for the sake of GO RANDOM (ignore that) passing time, here's a real difficult problem.

XY=X10+Y10+XY+100

X=?
Y=?

The winner gets: APPLAUSE!!!

Dang. You're smart. By the way, I've been looking for a way to solve this... I came up with it today, but couldn't explain how to get those answers without dumb luck. How did you arrive at your answer?
the answer I was thinking of was X=Y+10 and Y=X+10. But they're basically the same thing. :) APPLAUSE FOR o_0!!!

OMG, o_0 beat me to it!

I'll explain it for o_0 XD.

XY=X10+Y10+XY+100

there's XY on both sides, so you cancel it:

0 = X10 + Y10 + 100

Then you divide by ten on both sides.

0 = X + Y + 10

Then you can solve for Y and X. Therefore
-Y - 10 = X and
-X - 10 = Y

Actually Tested, it's not really the same thing XD. Because you'd have to negative the other side too.

wow. two people already fimiliar with the problem.
and I thought I came up with it.
scary.


By the way, here's the "back-door" explanation I came up with when I "developed" the problem today. (using positives with adding.)

XY=XY+X10+Y10+100
(X+10)(Y+10)=XY+X10+Y10+100

Using the distributive property, this equals

XY+X10+Y10+100=XY+X10+Y10+100

(By the way, the distributive property shows that, for instance, 1(2+3) = 1*2+1*3)

Edit: By the way, technically, they are similar, because

1+1=2

is the same as

1-(-1)=2

and

(-1)-1=2

Stage, or film?

I'm confused now... I thought (-1)-1 = -2?? *sweatdrop*

Anyways, I used a simple solution and yours was more complex... ahh I don't understand this complicated math :P. I'm only in grade 10!
