Proof that 2 + 2 = 5
Start with: -20 = -20
Which is the same as: 16-36 = 25-45
Which can also be expressed as: (2+2) 2 (9 X (2+2) = 52) 9 X 5
Add 81/4 to both sides: (2+2) 2 (9 X (2+2) + 81/4 = 52) 9 X 5 + 81/4
Rearrange the terms: ({2+2}) 9/2) 2 = (5-9/2) 2
Ergo: 2+2 - 9/2 = 5
Hence: 2 + 2 = 5
This was calculated in Gaelic BTW.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] n00b4life Your starting highschool at algebra 2? My HS started us off at algebra 1 :\[/quote]Hahaha as does mine, but before the year starts we have a math placement test. The students who score in the top 5% of the test get placed into algebra 2. Then it's geometry and algebra 1 for the rest. Needless to say, I placed in that top 5%.
