Nintendohnut Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 Man I totally already answered number 5, you guys is well slow innit. Also: Dyson when/if the question was opened up I was gonna put that Also again: gARYgREATIE* I think you may be raped for the size of your sig, its too big as far as I know? EDIT: Aah I was correct Rinky-dink for rules
The fish Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 5) Mother-fuxxing Black-currant! (or just Black-currant, if you're not into random swears) Yarp. Still a few to go, peeps! 8) I was going to say The Netherlands, but it is in fact Denmark. I missed this one, sorry. You're right!
jayseven Posted May 9, 2008 Author Posted May 9, 2008 Ok, kiddies, here's my questions: 9. Find a post by Supergrunch, and look at his signature. What has the speaker missed? Has the speaker failed to take into account the sun, a huge source of energy outside Earth?
MoogleViper Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 Has the speaker failed to take into account the sun, a huge source of energy outside Earth? Isn't it a joke?
MoogleViper Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 Oh ok. I thought there was something missing from the quote. Like a word or something. A quick google shows that it's a religious quote so you may be right.
DomJcg Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 For the co ordinates one... All i found was that it was just outside new zealand...but there wasn't anything special about it...
gARYgREATIE* Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 Ok, kiddies, here's my questions: 9. Find a post by Supergrunch, and look at his signature. What has the speaker missed? The first sentence to the quote. "One of the most basic laws in the universe is the Second Law of Thermodynamics. This states that as time goes by, entropy in an environment will increase. Evolution argues differently...etc"
The fish Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 1) -1/2x+2x^-1/2+x+c That's probably wrong Yup, it's wrong. Has the speaker failed to take into account the sun, a huge source of energy outside Earth? Correct! I always thought it would a tough one to miss... For the co ordinates one... All i found was that it was just outside new zealand...but there wasn't anything special about it... There is something very special about it, damn it!
gARYgREATIE* Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 Ok, kiddies, here's my questions:4. What is odd about the point 39 12 13.58 S 179 39 50.39 E? Is it the centre of the Water Hemisphere?
MoogleViper Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 1) the line doesn't cross the x axis. 1) I'm changing it to -1/2x^-2+4x^1/2+x+c Although that's probably still wrong.
The fish Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 I'm guessing Fish wants an indefinite integral. For clarification purposes, what he said. I'll give ya'll a clue: - split it using partial fractions - ??? - integrate - profit.
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted May 10, 2008 Posted May 10, 2008 I don't see anything special about the coordinates, either. It's around the north-eastern shore of New Zealand, right? Oh, and Mozambique hasn't got ALL the vowels - there's no Y!
MoogleViper Posted May 10, 2008 Posted May 10, 2008 I don't see anything special about the coordinates, either. It's around the north-eastern shore of New Zealand, right? Oh, and Mozambique hasn't got ALL the vowels - there's no Y! Y isn't a vowel. I don't know anything about partial fractions but I got this: 4x^3/2+8/3x²+c When the answer is posted can you explain it to me please?
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted May 10, 2008 Posted May 10, 2008 Y isn't a vowel. Then what the hell is it? Here in Denmark, it sure is a vowel!
Dyson Posted May 10, 2008 Posted May 10, 2008 Then what the hell is it? Here in Denmark, it sure is a vowel! AEIOUY? Are you serious? It's a consonant. Consonants: BCDFGHJKLMNPQRSTVWXYZ. Vowels: AEIOU
jayseven Posted May 10, 2008 Author Posted May 10, 2008 it's a half-vowel thing innit? Supergrunch'll fly in in a bit and be way more precise, I'm sure.
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted May 10, 2008 Posted May 10, 2008 AEIOUY? Are you serious? It's a consonant. Consonants: BCDFGHJKLMNPQRSTVWXYZ. Vowels: AEIOU Did a little reading on Wikipedia. It seems the definiton of vowels and consonants are not as simple as I've always been taught. Well, here in Denmark, there is a very sharp and clear definiton of vowels and consonants: Vowels are sounds that can only be spelled by themselves, like A or O. Consonants, if spelled like they sound, need a vowel and one or more consonants: B = be; L = el. In Danish, AEIOUY(ÆØÅ) are vowels and abide the rule that they can only be spelled by themselves. BCDFGHJKLMNPQRSTVWXZ are consonants and abide the rule that they need both consonants and vowels to be spelled like they sound. it's a half-vowel thing innit? Supergrunch'll fly in in a bit and be way more precise, I'm sure. Yeah, that guy knows a lot about languages.

Well I'm again no expert on danish, but english pronounciation certainly doesn't allways treat the vowels the same way - think of how "a" sounds in saw, awe, jaw compared to grass, pass, bath. Phonetics-boy will save us.
The fish Posted May 10, 2008 Posted May 10, 2008 Y isn't a vowel. I don't know anything about partial fractions but I got this: 4x^3/2+8/3x²+c When the answer is posted can you explain it to me please? Y is a vowel some of the time - such as when it's in "sky". However, it's not a proper vowel. As Jayseven said, it's only a half-vowel. Oh, and that's still wrong. Hint: it involves natural logs.
