I can't conceive of any way to make 15 min math work.

15 mins is impossible for 3 without reducing the thickness of the boards.

The teacher is retarded.

Marie used a recip saw for the second board.

Seriously though, the teacher knows how to do math but not word problems.

(It's fake. Teachers also don't bother with 3-part explanations. It's right or wrong, with no commentary. Another argument - were this real - is that it took 10 minutes to measure and cut the board into 2/3rds and 1/3rd, and 5 minutes more to make the second cut because another measurement was not required; the 2nd line was already marked on the board. )

The second board was made out of ice. Therefore, calculus was needed due to the melting of the ice making the board thinner during the time it took her to cut it.

Well I'll admit the 9gag comments are hilarious (re. a solution for 15 mins), as usual. Much better than those dumb posts. And to think: these kids are our future. Jesus....

Those who think that image is factual or meaningful are retarded.

That's all you can think of?

You're confused, right?

I'm guessing you thought 15 minutes was the correct answer.

[–]no_u 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (5 children)

Anyone can see it's a very old fake image and that 9gag is cancer. Have a smidgen of self-respect, you brainwashed lunatic.

Have a smidgen of self-respect, you brainwashed lunatic.

Socks, you douchebag piece of shit. Is that any way to talk to your master?

Go get jabbed, and hurry.

Everyone knows people who died from the jab, but most people didn't aggressively push it, and run cover for the murderers.

I wonder how many people you know were influenced by you, and lost their lives.

Yet you still run interference for the same scum, and can't see that they're playing you for a fool.

Will you regret your poor choices, when your number is drawn? I doubt you have the ability to question your mental programming, so probably not.

And I'm sure multiple jabs have also sterilized you. That's called addition, by subtraction.

Either way, I'm glad to see you're still getting your balls kicked in on a regular basis.

You won't be missed when you're gone.

He isn't the only one here who disagrees with you. I'm not him.

You're trying too hard to think of insults, and failing miserably with ridiculous comments that are unrelated to the topic (you're following the one-answer fits all approach for far right lies: to be against everything that helps society). Get help.

[–]Tom_BombadilBombadildo[S] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

Mkay socks, ya bitch.

[–]no_u 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

nope

You ask so many questions because you're nothing more than a troll, a disengenuous POS who has no interest in the answers. You're also spreading 9gag lies with the hope that fascists will like you. They won't. Nothing is as simple as you want it to be.

You are geh. Why are you geh?

It's just a really bad example. Whomever wrote the problem wasn't thinking so the answer is rediculous in real life.

This is a basic "rate of work" sort of problem. In this case it takes 10 minutes to make two widgets. How long would it take to make three widgets. Divide 10 by two to get the time to make one widget, then multiply by three to get 15.

If you are doing actual cutting on a board the answer is 20 minutes since you need to make two cuts instead of one. It's just a crap word problem.

[–]Tom_BombadilBombadildo[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

You're correct. This is a rate of work problem, and the process bottleneck is the 10 min cutting operation.

The teacher deserves 2 boards; one half cut.

And a pay cut.
