It literally took about a minute of research to find out the President has nothing to do with the nomination or approval process for this medal,...
So what is 1 - 0.(9)? Any number that terminates with or contains a digit that isn't 0 can be show to NOT be the difference between the two. 1 -...
I was under the impression that writing the number as "0.999..." or "0.(9)" implied an infinitely recurring digit. If I was wrong about that then...
No it isn't, but 0.(9) is. It isn't philosophy, it's math.
If 1 and 0.(9) are different numbers, than there should be a third number that is between them. What number is between 1 and 0.(9)?
0.(9) doesn't end. That's precisely what It means to have digit that repeats an infinite number of times, that there is no end. 0.01 0.001 0.0001...
1.(0)1 is an impossible number. If there is an infinite number of 0s, then there can't be a 1 after them.
0.(9) + .0000000000001 = 1.0000000000000(9) Try again. And yes, I use a typical notation for recurring decimals rather than "0.9 sideways 8".
No, 0.9 does not equal 1, and that isn't what I'm arguing. However, 0.(9), 0.999..., however the hell you want to write it DOES equal 1. 0.9 and...
People keep referring to this as advanced or theoretical math. It isn't, it can literally be proven with basic algebra. Writing ".999..." Is a...
Pi isn't a rational number, 0.(9) is. So I'm not sure what one has to do with the other. "1" also has an implied digit that repeats an infinite...
He isn't saying 0.9 = 1. He's saying 0.999... (an infinite number or repeating 9s) = 1. You can prove that using basic algebra. If x = 0.(9) Then...
OP isn't wrong. 0.(9) IS equal to one. It's not infinitely close to one. It isn't approaching one. It IS one. Try and covert 0.(9) to a...
I understand that, what I'm trying to say is that there is no difference between 1 and .9999..... If you subtract them you would get an infinite...
If you subtract .9999.... from 1 you wouldn't get .0005, .00005, .000005, and so on. You would get an infinite number of 0s. - - - Updated - - -...
You can prove .9999.... Equals 1 by converting it to a fraction. If x = .9999.... Then 10x = 9.9999.... 10x - x = 9x 9.9999.... - .9999.... =...
The constant need of some people to assert their “masculinity” reeks of insecurity. I’m not impressed. The only people who are...
To be fair, libertarian political ideologies WERE associated with the left for a long time, although the first people who called themselves...
Even with a wage system, the wages themselves aren't really the incentive to work. Wages only serve as the means for an individual to satisfy...
Socialism is the Social ownership of the means of production. State ownership is one interpretation of that.
How exactly is this self imposed
The atheist position only exists as a response to your claim, and your inability to prove that claim to us.
Of course this is what the atheist movement is concerned with. Rejecting the assertion that "God exists" is precisely what atheism is. To not have...
Maybe they mean Anakin, who was explicity acknowledged to have abilities before ever receiving any training. We don't know that Rey was fast...
Your whole premise is based on your own ignorance of what you think Muslims believe. It's true that eating pork in most contexts is forbidden in...
