Should one ever take a break from reading?

Should one ever take a break from reading?

cat = 7
rabbit = 3
dog = 17

so answer is 27

if you're a wimp, sure

wow really made me think

But sometimes it's necessary to absorb and reflect on what you've finished reading, which can take up to days, even weeks.

No, you should switch styles/topics/genres instead.

truu

hey I'm really dumb. how the fuck do you solve this?

Easy way, add all three figures together, divide by two

Since they all get weighed twice

substitute the cat as (rabbit+4) then act like there are two rabbits and a 4 pound weight on the first scale. Then subtract a rabbit from the second scale to get the dog's weight.

friend

Yes. Sometimes in heavy traffic it interferes with your ability to drive, and during complex or energetic sex your book may get fluids on it, or hit your partner(s) in the face and annoy them. Sleep is also necessary.

i didnt use any of those but you just have to guess l

My first thought was to represent everything with equations
c+r=10
d+r=20
c+d=24
Then just mix and combine them until you get individual numbers. is a neat and easy alternative.

still don't get it. damn I'm dumb haha. show your work nigger

it's kilograms

look it's by default holy shit

Okay since
rabbit + dog = 20
cat + dog = 24
then you can infer that the cat weighs 4 more than the rabbit
rabbit + cat = 10
cat - 4 = rabbit
cat - 4 + cat = 10
cat + cat = 14
cat * 2 = 14
divide by 2
cat = 7
rabbit - 7 = 3
dog - 3 = 17
17 + 3 + 7

are you just fucking with me right now. making up random numbers. I followed you for a couple lines then you lost me after you found out the cat was plus 4 or something.

>all these English majors unable to figure out a simple arithmetic problem

I never read on sundays
But a longer break, I don't know, maybe if you read too may dense books in a row

If your math is shit go with trial and error

Start with something like rabbit 2, cat 8 and if it don't add up, try 3 and 7, than 4-6 and so son

as I said OP you have to guess
Ok the cat is bigger than the rabbit
cat+ rabbit:10
so i can't be 5+5 so let's say 4+6
then dog + rabbit 20-4=16
16+6=22 doesn't match let's try once again
3+7=10 20-3=17 17+7= 24 uuh it matchs!
not even to write it down in a paper

haha that's what I was thinking in the first place! you really know dumb people. you should be a special ed teacher. you really get me.

>you have to guess
no you fucking don't read my post you illiterate nigger

Difference between the first two is +10 so the dog must weigh 10 more than the cat
Dog + cat weighs 24, subtract ten and halve the result to get the weight of the cat (7), then what's left is the weight of the dog (17)
Cat + rabbit weighs 10, subtract 7 to get the weight of the rabbit (3) then add them all together to find the weight of all three (27)

Watch the racism /pol/tard

c + r = 10
d + r = 20
d + c = 24

r = 10 - c
r = 20 - d

c = 10 - r
c = 24 - d

d = 20 - r
d = 24 - c

10 - c = 20 - d

10 = 20 + c - d

-10 = c - d

10 = d - c

d + (d-10) = 24

17 + 7 = 24

10 = 17 - 7

7 + 3 = 10

c = 7
d = 17
r = 3

hahahaha holy shit are fucking serious

definitely bigger than 24

It's just algebra, dude.

27

Jesus christ Veeky Forums you should be ashamed of yourselves. This is a elementary school level algebra problem. The dog, cat, and rabbit weigh 17, 7 and 3 kg respectively, meaning all three weigh 27 kg

the dog weighs 10 more than the cat
so on the third you add 10
30

how can you guys not get it????

no

>Difference between dog/cat and dog/rabbit is 4
>Subtract 4 from cat/rabbit (10) which equals 6
>Divide that equally between the cat and rabbit, so 3 and 3
>Add back the difference of 4 to the cat's weight so it equals 7

So, now: Cat=7, Rabbit=3

>Take dog/cat (24) and subtract cat, which equals 17
>Verify by adding rabbit and dog for total of 20, which works

Now: Dog=17, Cat=7, Rabbit=3

17+7+3=27

So, there. Are we all good, now?

but literally everyone got the answer except one retard

Now do it without working out cat, dog and rabbit. There's a quicker way.

The difference between dog+rabbit and dog+cat is 4 kg, so the cat must weigh 4 kg more than the rabbit.
And just go from there.

It's impossible to know for sure

The dog, being about 17 kilos, could differ by enough to change the rounding depending on if he has eaten or shat since the previous weighing.

We also have zero proof that the animals are the same as the previous animals or just look the same

Fuck this thread is shit.

Not sure how you can take a break from reading, like seriously how? Just ignore all the words you see around you?

Oh God, it would fucking suck to be blind.

just close your eyes lmao

there's no way to prove the animals are even there or that the scales are calibrated properly
we don't even know why things have mass so how can you define "kilogram"

That's a really big cat.

I love autism tests like OP's pic.

ayy lmao
