xelander Posted March 12, 2010 Author Share Posted March 12, 2010 Now, at school we had a homework, and we had to show how we did it.I completly forgot about it, so I didn't make it.Anyways…If you were doing this math problem, how would you solve it?It's 397 000% of 375...How the hell can you find out the answear?!Edit: I fixed the %, it was the wrong number. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jna Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Lets say 375 is 100%. If you want to take the 197 000% of 375 you do like this.100=375197 000= ?Its 197000 x 375 % 100\. The result would be 738 750.So 197000% of 375 would be 738 750.x=ya=bb is the number you need to find out. a is the percentage of the number you need to find out. x is always 100 and y is the number you already know, being 100%.Its a times y divided by x. It works for any percentage.Oh and here you can prove my result is right:http://lmgtfy.com/?q=197000%25+of+375Hope this is what you wanted.

Godlord Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 It's about integrals and if you didn't know that, you could have checked the image name of the most-left symbol.@NinjaCat:> Sweden is to be honest the second worst country on math. :PChange that, then.Regards, Godlord.

Adulese Games Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 The integral is the anti-derivative. Basically when you take a derivative of something such as dx/dy you would come out with an equation that represents the slope of the original graph. Take another dx/dy and you get an equation representing the curvature of that original graph. It is also implemented in physics where, if you derive a function of position in regards to time, you get a function of velocity. Derive that and you get a function of acceleration. Multiply the y-axis values by the mass and then take the integral and you have it's momentum.Now, integrals represent the area under the curve of a graph. It came about when Newton was trying to find an equation that undid derivatives. The original equation, known as the midpoint rule is:Where i is the subscript of the number for x*, changing by 1 each time, n (the number of x* in the summation) approaches infinity, and (delta)x is the interval of change between X*'s.Simply put, the integral of secant of x to the ninth power is probably one of the longest simple integrals on the face of the earth. The integral is as follows:Where sec(x) is the secant function and log(x) is the natural logarithm. I hope this has enlightened all of you. ;D- Adulese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In7el3ct Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 While it is actually supposed to be maths, it just doesn't sit right on the tongue. Math is the generally excepted term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adulese Games Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 You know, maybe we should have a board for mathematics. Game related of course. Oh what a joy that would be.- Adulese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
