Bleh...I hate maths...what the heck is that about? I don`t get that math problem...hmm...
Y=4X... that means... X has to be something like 2 or you'd be in year 12. unless you are? is there such a thing as year 13?I solved that problem 11 pages ago. X=7.
hmm... oh... yeah, im an idiot, lets see if i can actualy work it out properly and not mentaly.
Y=4X
Z=5Y+2X
M=Z-3Y
X=M/10
lets de-construct it.
if X = 7 then,
Y = 4*7 = 21
Z = 5Y + 2X = 5*21 + 2*7 = 105 + 14 = 119
M = 119 - (3*21) = 119 - 63 = 56
X = 56/10 = 5.6
What'd i do wrong? hmmm... oh, yeah, miscalculation on Y, lets fix that...
Y = 4*7 = 28
Z = 5Y + 2X = 5*28 + 2*7 = 150 + 14 = 164
M = 164 - (3*28) = 164 - 84 = 80
X = 80/10 = 8
FMT, are you sure its 7? i dont see how i got 8, any ideas? Im pretty good at math, but i dont see what iv done wrong? im just geting more confused the more i look at it...

Re: What Grade Are You In? A Scratch Survey :D
BTW, you haven't added me. I posted a few times before. I'm in 4th grade.
Now only using this account to post in Miscellaneous, but when Miss_Webgal becomes a Scratcher I'm ditching this account.

Substitution.
So they just substituted a random number in?

5th.No offense, but it seems you're a little younger then 5th.
Then you`re about 0 years old.
Well then, I guess I'm the smartest infant in the world then.

Re: What Grade Are You In? A Scratch Survey :D
I'm not sure what grade I am in because here we have a different system (11 grades instead of 12) Here I am in 8th grade, I think that's analogical to 9th grade in America. 
I know what you're thinking! "Neptune! Get rid of those filthy advertisements and give us back the Zarathustra siggy, you horrible person!" Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>Offline
