Then divide by x....

1=2=0/x(or just 0)

Since your equation is 1x=2x=0(or 0x)

 

That is where mathematics falls down...That was my point.

You can't divide by x. In this case, x has to be 0. You couldn't have divided by 0 the first time, because this equation isn't true unless x = 0. Thusly, you cannot divide by x

Why can't you divide by X? If X was 1 then you could divide by X, but when X(which you are supposed not to know, that is why it is algebra...) is 0 you can't....

Maths fail!

 

 

We should rename the topic Mathematics :thumbsup:

 

0/0=0=∞

∞/∞=0=∞

 

0=∞

Nope

Well I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts.

You cannot divide by x because that equation is not true in all cases other than x = 0. The first equation was true in all cases, but you divided by 0, thus changing the equation.

Infinity cannot generally be used with equations. Since infinity minus infinity is still infinity, well...it really messes things up.

Then the equation:

(x-x)x=

Or

(x-x)(x+x)=

 

Fails. Since it is not universally true. Since if 0 is used the whole equation falls apart, since there is no answer.

 

The same is true for any and all algebraic equations...

It is universally true. Let's see what happens...

 

(x-x)x=0

(0-0)0=0

(0)0=0

0=0

 

(x-x)(x+x)=0

(0-0)(0+0)=0

(0)(0)=0

0=0

 

Hmmmmms, I think I'm right. :P

Sigh... Yes...

 

However (x-x)(x+x) cancels to 2x.

Thus 2x=0

If 0=x

Then2x=x <True

Thus 2=1 <False. You cannot divide by X because it is 0.

 

(x-x)x is just un-expanded version...

Sigh....You can but fine.

 

2x=x

Thus 2x=4x=16x=256x=65536x=4294967296x=18446744073709551616x

Ect, ect...

 

 

Thus a computational fail, since the equation can never balance.

Thus mathematics fails.

It can balance. Let's just assume this.

 

2x = (2^19235075892480572394752043957234) times x

 

Then you bring the 2x to the right side. So you get a big number times x, = 0

 

Divide both sides by the big number, and you get x = 0. It does balance. X = 0

I don't think so. We have millions of mathematicians pondering this for hours every day.

Actually you would get

2x = x (Since it is the most simple version of the formula.)

If you moved the 2x to the other side you would get x = 3x...

Since x = 0.....

 

If you minused x from both sides you would just get 0x=1x then -1x=0x then -2x=-1x

It would just be inversing the problem....

Okay, please watch.

 

2x = x

 

Subtract x from both sides gives you

 

x = 0

 

Done

Infinity is not a number. It is a concept.

X/0 then you get -∞,

 

X/0, in any case, is 0...Since if I have 5 apples and I share them out between no people then no one would have any apples...except me obviously, but I don't count.

Well I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts.

Actually X/0 is undefined. You can't apply logic to mathematics like that. On a graph, basically it would be an up and down straight line.

 

Okay Archi, tell me this. If a line goes straight up and down, what is its slope?

No.

If x equals 1 then subtracting 1 from both sides makes 1=0.

If x equals 0 then subtracting 0 from both sides makes 2x=x

If you want to be pedantic about using x as a 0....
