Let's see how smart Veeky Forums is.
A baseball bat and a ball together cost $1.10.The bat costs a dollar more than the ball.
What is the cost of the ball?
Let's see how smart Veeky Forums is
5c
5 cents
50/50 it either costs a dollar or it doesn't
>It took 3 replies to get the correct answer
Veeky Forums confirmed retarded.
What? Its 5c.
bat=c+1.00
ball=c
c+(c+1.00)=1.10
2c+1.00=1.10
2c=0.10
c=0.05
is this correct? i'm too much of a brainlet to have confidence.
good meme honestly
X+y = 110
Y=x+100
X+X+100= 110
x+x= 10
2x= 10
X=5
A dollar or not? Kek
The ball is free.
The bat is a $, and the tax is 10%.
Yes you got it
I like this approach too haha
>the ball is free*
>*included in the price of the bat
Then price of the baseball is $0
the goat is behind the third door, OP.

Have a blessed day.
Theoretical Mathemetician here
a = baseball bat, b = ball
a + b = 1.1
a = b + 1
(b + 1) + b = 1.1
2b = 1.1 - 1
2b = 0.1
b = 0.5
The ball is free but it's America so you have to tip the ball and bat salesman
>0.1/2=0.5
Thank god you're just a theoretical mathematician
>muh fairytale
kill yourself
(You)
Hard mode: use only words, al-jabr style
Laron is 2 inch taller than Lavon when he was six years old, and Laran is 3 inch taller than Laron was when Lavon was 2 years younger than Laran. When Laran is twice as old as Lavon was when Lavon was taller than Lavan, how tall will Lavon be when Laron is half as old as Lavon when Lavon was three inches shorter than Lavan?
>0.1/2
2 dollars
the answer is to kill whitey and get mo money fo dem programs
They asked me if I had a degree in theoretical physics.
I told them I had a theoretical degree in physics.
Ball is 5 cents
Next question
ball is 10 cents
$0.10 + $1.00 = $1.10
Top kek
are you legit retarded
What? It's a dollar more you fucking cuck
>Cuck meme
A dollar more than 10 cents is a dollar and 10 cents. Then they add together to make a dollar and 20 cents.
cuck currency that doesnt make sense.
Ball = 5c
Bat = $1.05
Why? Bat costs $1 more than the ball
therefore $0.05(Ball) + $1 = $1.05(Bat)
Thus $0.05(Ball) + $1.05(Bat) = $1.10
This thread is fucking retarded.
The shopkeeper owes you $1/12.
>(((shopkeeper)))
Commence the jigglin'
Why is this bullshit allowed on here? Where are the mods?
x+y=1.1
x+1=y
