Doesn't make you dumb though.

Where are you getting this $1.05 from

Where is this 5 cents coming from

you see

The bat costs $1 more than the ball

iq is the ability to think logically and solve complex problems

not $1.05

this question is a great example of this

because a person with a higher iq can resolve that there is, in fact, something deeper to this problem

There is nothing deeper to it

You're throwing in this $1.05 figure

which makes no sense

im sorry but this is proving the point here

You haven't explained how it isn't 10 cents

You brought it out of your ass

thats the answer though

5 cents

Explain how

X is bat, Y is ball, Z is total
X+Y=Z , X= Y+1.00, Z= 1.10, (Y+1.00)+Y= 1.10
2Y= 0.10
Y=0.05

.05 + 1.05 = 1.10

1.05 is 1.00 more than .05

The total is $1.10

the bat costs 1.00 more

1.05 is 1.00 more than .05

Yes

The total is $1.10

soo

do the math

Holy shit you're stupid

,,,;;;;;;.

The total is 1 dollar and 10 cents

not 1 dollar and 5 cents

YES

fuck

I know people who aren't good at math, it's fine, either you can practice it, or decide to have skills in a different area.

this isnt a math problem

this is a logic problem

math problems can be logic problems

they overlap

Where did you get the 2 y from @Chillin Chum

Follow that message again, I edited it so that it's easier to read.

That doesn't answer my question

Where are you getting 2Y

There's 1 ball, not 2

Algebra. It works like that.

You're pretending I'm retarded for not being able to understand this yet you fail to explain it

Nope

There's 1 ball, not 2

Where the fuck did you get 2 from

Hmmm.
It's just that I don't think I'd be a good math teacher. And i assumed you understood how it worked. I apologize for making that assumption then.

we are trying to explain this

And you are failing

we are both trying to explain this to him

I asked you where you were getting $1.05 from

I'll try anyway. X is our variable, or unknown number representative of the price of the bat.
Y is the price of the ball, similarly.
We know that whatever thier prices are, they have to add up to 1.10.

So, we can write X+Y=1.10

However, we also know that the bat is a dollar more then the ball, so what we do is say this.
X=Y+1.00

@Cotton Do you get this

Am I just retarded and don't understand this

What we can do is replace the x in that equation with that info!

X+Y=1.10 becomes
(Y+1.00)+Y=1.10

That's where I got my 2nd Y.

It is information of one unknown number based off the other. But if we know this kind of info, we can isolate the other.

Okay I see now

But how the fuck do you get 5 cents

Oh nevermind

If we want to after, we can check our work, replace the number we found for Y, or the ball, with that number.

okay well you're both terrible at explaining this

do you understand yet

3 trick math questions don't represent IQ

2Y+1.00=1.10
2Y=0.10
Y=0.05
X+0.05= 1.10
X=1.05
1.05+0.05=1.10
And it fits all the requirements.

I'm in the middle of doing an IQ test with a psychologist

I still have 2 more parts to go through but so far, I scored 102 and 103 in some shit

I can't remember what it was, I think one of them was math

Actually I think the other was long term memory

In any case, there's something to be said for mentorship, education, and training.
Sometimes, it isn't the student, but the teacher (or lack thereof.)

I scored 124 in auditory processing and 126 in short term memory

Or something, I don't remember exactly, but the numbers are exact

Obviously I still have to complete the rest but this averages to about 113, almost 114

That's somewhat higher than average

But IQ doesn't measure social intelligence, creativity, ect.

it doesnt

it just measures how well you perform in those areas

These are 3 mathematical questions that relate to speed/calculation

Doesn't predict IQ

Trick questions at that

thats what iq is

Uh, no

the ability to analyze complex problems that seem so simple

I'll admit that I don't know everything there is to politics, but that's ok, because I know that not everything is decided by the government. Can they be opressive? Oh, absolutely, and I am no fan of overly big government. However, it is not the end all be all (isn't that genetics? /s), and I feel some people have yet to grasp that.

aight i have another one

this one has no math

it is quick

you really are a retard

you're gonna get them wrong

In any case, the ability to analyze complex problems doesn't guarantee success by any standard, nor does always inhibit it. It is only one tool in the toolbox.
