What did the mathematician say after Christmas dinner? 164\sqrt{\frac{-1}{64}}

Hint



Why did the mathematical tree fall over? Because it had no real roots.

Why was 6 afraid of 7? Because 7, 8, 9.

Would you like to do some maths?
OK
Let's go to your room, add the bed, subtract your clothes, divide your legs and multiply :biggrin:
And yes, I have posted that before. I have no life, I know.

I like those DeathAwaitsU, especially the first one! Though it doesn't satisfy the OP's suggested criteria of being rude!
My signature :smile:

No, mine was:

What's the square root of 69? :cool:

I dont get it, even after reading the hint :redface: What's it meant to say lol?

Maybe its just a further mathematicians thing :confused:

The first one that comes to mind is one that my maths teacher told me, although this is probably a butchered version of it:

There are two mathematicians in a restaurant and they are in dispute over the mathematical abilities of "commoners". The first of them believes that the average person wouldn't even be able to do the most trivial of integrals while the second has some "faith" in the commoner.

The first one goes off to the toilet and while he is gone, the second calls over a waitress. He tells her in a short time, he will call her over and ask her a question. All she has to do is answer 1/3x^3. So she goes off and mumbles "one third x cubed" to herself.

The first one then returns and the second mathematician offers to make a bet with him about their recent argument. So he calls the waitress back and asks her "What's the integral of x^2?"

She answers "1/3x^3" much to the amazement of the first mathematician. But as she walks away she mumbles, "...plus c."

:p:

164=164=i/8\sqrt{\frac{-1}{64}} = \frac{\sqrt{-1}}{\sqrt{64}} = i/8.
oh, sorry, the question mark is part of the joke lol.

Oh, OK!

I took time working it out, even though it was a pretty standard integral. :p: :redface:

164=164=i/8\sqrt{\frac{-1}{64}} = \frac{\sqrt{-1}}{\sqrt{64}} = i/8.


Ohh I get it now :smile:

Thanks.

Gosh I feel like such a dumbass lol

No, it took me a while actually, only after about 5 minutes did I remember that 64 was 8 sqaured!!!! :eek: :biggrin:
Unparseable latex formula:

Hehe at least you got an answer, much better than me :smile:

These Further Mathematicians eh? Making the rest of us look stupid :p:

oboat1/boatdboat\displaystyle\int^{boat}_{o} 1/boat \, \mathrm{d}boat

Log boat? :confused:

Yup...lol ok its not great but its all I could think of...
