Posted September 26, 2005 In a similar vein to the 0.999rec=1 thread, I shall post the proof that 1>2 1/2 > 1/4 log(1/2) > log(1/4) log(1/2) > log[(1/2)squared] log(1/2) > 2 log(1/2) 1 > 2 Can anyone find the error? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 26, 2005 I think if the ground number (whatever you guys call it) =a is between -1 and 1 or something you need to change the > to <. Might not be intirely correct. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought it would be a little more than half an hour before someone got it. EDIT: Well, you're pretty much right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 26, 2005 I hve no idea what this thread is about... So WTF? Either you're -16 or you haven't paying much attention in math. Or you're doing a non-math course, which would make more sense. Or... you're an alien. All bow for our new alien overlords *bows* Edit Congratulations! I thought it would be a little more than half an hour before someone got it. actually i haven't read it from the moment you posted it, took me 2 mins to figure out :wink: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 26, 2005 1, 2, 3 1 then 2 then 3 1 is less than 2 :P don't really need more convincing than that surely? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.... I could go on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I could go on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on. but the question was to find the error in the prove that had been given. And the only way your answer would be correct is if you proved it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
