Give the volume of a cylinder is ∏r²h, what is the volume of a pie whose radius is z and height is a?


pie*z^2a?

I've been trying to say it outloud but I'm not coming up with anything.

Why was 5 afraid of 7?

Because 7 8 9 (seven ate nine)!

There are three types of people in the world. People who can count and people that cannot count. What type of person am I?

This forum has seemed to become the home of either the best geek pick-up lines or innuendo. Hilarious. xP

Chaotic Nonsense
Self explanatory:

money = evil^(1/2) (that is to say, money is the root of all evil)
time = money (time is money)
women = money*time (Women are money and time)

Substitute time for money:

women = money*money
women = money^2
women = (evil^(1/2))^2
women = evil

Tada.


I have always hated this joke, even when i was nine. It butchers math.

Women are money and time. That translates into, money + time.

Women = money + money
Women = 2*money

I have never seen it phrased in a way that made sense.

Well, actually, if we view it in terms of either a boolean or a more general pair of independent probabilities, "and" translates into multiplication; "or" would be addition.
There are deep epistemological issues with viewing "and" as addition.

I agree completely. This joke bothers me not so much because it is wrong, but because most people who say it would not understand why it is not wrong.

I would gladly apologize to anyone who uses this joke and could actually explain why it made sense. I suspect it would be a small number.

There's also the "Nice Asymptote," but I don't have a picture for that...


Those are awesome!

Friday in math, we're graphing the whole polynomial divided by a polynomial thing... and our teacher was talking about doing the verticle line test and how you should ignore the asymptotes when doing that... I couldn't help sharing with a friend who sat behind me (Chris).

Teacher: "Ignore the asymptote--"
Me: "Are you looking at my asymptote!?"
Teacher: "...just look at the curves."
Me: "Look at my curves... they're just so proportionate."
Chris: "I'd tangent that."

The square root of negative one walks into a bar and sees a cute two-thirds. He walks over to her and asks, "Hey, Baby, can I buy you a drink?" She looks at him, scoffs, and says, "Get real!"

I think you misunderstood what Layra-Chan said. Applying and as it's used in probability results in a process of multiplication, not addition as you said. For instance, the probability of A and B happening is P(A)*P(B). Hence 'girls are time and money' does, in fact, become girls=time*money. The joke makes sense.

ok here goes

what do you call a triangle superstore
Pythag R Us

f(x) walks into abar and orders a pint. the barman says "sorry but we don't cater for functions"

sin x cos x and e^x are at a party. sin x and cos x are dancing and generally having a good time. sin x goes over to e^x and asks why he doesn't join in. "i would" he said, "but everytime i try to integrate i end up with myself"
