Girls are EVIL, as shown by Maths

Post by Heptzul »

First post here so, Hi.

Right, so:

Girls are Time and Money -
Girls = Time x Money

Time is Money -
Time = Money

Thus:
Girls = Money squared

Now, we all know that money is the root of all evil -
Money = Root(Evil)

Substitute "Money" for "Root(Evil)" in the "Girls = Money Squared" equasion and we get ...
Girls = Root(Evil)squared or Girls = EVIL!

Old. So very, very old. Still, I don't doubt that somebody will probably find it funny since they'll never have seen it before.

You can prove pretty much anything with maths for example 2=1.

AFAIK the very famous equation is actually not true... I cant give you a demonstration, as I am no math genius my self, but I think it was on this very site I saw someone pointing out a mistake in the 2=1 equation...

the only way you can make 2=1 is when you divide my 0.

so get out a calculator, and type 5 divided zero. you should get something called an error or error 2.

Oh yes, something like that. It is not possible to divide by 0. Thus is the rules of math.

As R4V3N correctly pointed out, the problem of equations proving that 2=1 invariably involves dividing by zero. In ordinary (real-number) arithmetic, such an expression has no meaning.

However, a somewhat similar invalid proof that fascinates me is the one that proves that ∞ = 1/4. The funny thing with this type of invalid proof is that it can be "checked," unlike the ones that rely on division by zero.

Proof that ∞ = 1/4

Since an infinitely large plane has the coordinates of (-∞,∞) × (-∞,∞), this means that

∞ = [∞ - (-∞)]²

Which can be simplified to

∞ = (2∞)²

The rest follows naturally:

∞ = 4∞²

∞/∞² = 4

1/∞ = 4

1 = 4∞

∞ = 1/4

This proof's fallacy is using ∞ (infinity) to represent a finite value – in reality infinity is thought of as a direction as opposed to a destination.

PS: The girls = evil proof is only funny if you've heard the expression "girls equal time times money". The way you present it, it should be girls = time + money or girls = time AND money, none of which would give you the desired result.

???

unless I'm very mistaken it should be (-∞,∞)², and as a ',' isn't the same as 'x' this can't be simplified any further

So, am I doing something wrong or are you? :P

The problem is that 1/∞ = 0 and can't be 4.
Another problem is that ∞/∞ = ∞, because ∞ has no definition.

Why it has no definition? Because the mathematicians need an area were they can postulate problems which you can't proof: In the infinity, everything is possible...^^

Was it comprehensible? :D

I prefer the boobies joke on the upside calculator. Yet I have never been able to master the secrets to that one. Jus have to wait to find a similarly childish person to do it for me...

Even then... ?/? is undefined. so is ?/?². Anyways, don't bother with it fellas. Every mathematician trying to figure out infinity turned crazy!

Not really a boobies one but theres a little story that goes a bit like ths....

A 13 year old girl has 84 boobs and wants 45 so the doctor gives her 2 pills but she takes 4 and ends up...
Type 1384452 in to your calculator as you get to the numbers in the story and when you get to "but she takes 4" multiply 1384452 by 4 and turn your calculator upsidedown to find how she ends up.

That's exactly why it's not a correct proof. I'm treating ∞ as any other value and not the concept of infinity. If infinity hadn't been infinity, ∞/∞ would be 1 and provided that the area of an infinite large plane is (-∞,∞)², ∞/∞² would be 4. Of course, this isn't correct; infinity is probably a lot greater 1/4 and can't at any rate be given a proper value - it's infinite.
