(See siggy) I will make the prizes more often. DON't CHEAT if i catch you cheating you are "banned" from getting a prize from this contest for one month. 1.)The local Market recieved a shipments of walnuts and almounds.

Mira Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 I'm not making a guess, but are you doing this to cheat on your homework because I worked this kind of stuff when I was your age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Izzy ♥ Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 You can simplify Anime's equation too: Total weight = 2w + 10 And I have to second Anime's request - I've done university level calculus, some harder ones would be nice :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anime Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Why do I always forget to simplify? @_@ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dillon Posted March 7, 2007 Author Share Posted March 7, 2007 I'm not making a guess, but are you doing this to cheat on your homework because I worked this kind of stuff when I was your age. No i am not doing it to cheat. Any who. Im in 8th grade taking grade 10 geometry to. I have done the problem and either way is correct. ATTENTION:All prizes won up to now shall be rewarded but no prizes shall be rewarded after this. No it was an MSA warmup. And now it will be the problem of the day. As the week progresses it will get harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anime Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 So you're saying you're incrediably smart? There are times I REALLY doubt that.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awesome_Paul Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 yeah dillon, no offense but i have some really smart friends (some for good projects, some for bad idiotic ideas :P ) but from TDN, you don't seem that smart. well not smart enough to take a 10th grade class in grade 8 anime doing a 10th grde in 9th grade, is more believeable, because on TDN she actually acts smart and mature etc (well can be very immature/angry/weird but everyone is) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
