Here is how you rape loli girls with math
Let's assume a=x
Therefore, a+a = x + a (Add a to both sides)
2a = a + x (Simplify)
2a - 2x = a + x - 2x (Subtract 2x from both sides)
2a - 2x = a - x (Simplify)
2(a-x) = a - x (Simplify)
2(a-x) = 1(a-x) (Simplify)
2 = 1

I apologize for my stupidity, but where exactly did you get the 2x from? You can only subtract something from both sides if one side has that value and is cancelled out. For example:
2x+1=0
-1 -1
2x=-1
You cannot pull a value out of thin air and subtract both sides by it.
-
Is this calculus or something? It looks very confusing :/
-
Exactly what hazard said. Even if a and x are the same value, you cant take a from one side and x from the other.
If you take a from one side, you have to take a from the other side. Therefore reflex, DO YOUR DAMN HOMEWORK. :)

unlike terms are equal wtf?

2a - 2x = a + x - 2x (Subtract 2x from both sides)
2a - 2x = a - x (Simplify)
lulz (Simplify) and hope nobody understands maths.

I fail to see what is wrong with this
Let's assume x = 1 = a (because x = a)
2a = a + x This simplifies to 2=2 if we insert the 1
2a - 2x = a + x -2x This simplifies to 0=0 if we insert the 1, making it still a true equation
2a - 2x = a -x This simplifies to 0=0 if we insert the 1, making it STILL a true equation
2(a-x) = 1(a-x) (He factored the common multiples) This simplifies to 0=0 if we insert the 1, STILL A TRUE EQUATION
2=1 (He divided out the (a-x)) This is just WTF
Therefore, it is still a true process of simplifying, and I commend thee on finding out this odd formula..

We learned this in Geometry.
This isn't possible because you can't divide by zero. Since a=x, when you divide by (a-x), you're dividing by zero.

Exactly.

Welp, case closed. Y'know, we should open up an educational subforum for people who haven't snorted enough OCRPowder today.

You already went in the wrong in the first line.
You assume that a + x = 2. But no, you cant add apples to pears and suddenly have 2 apples. a + x is still 1a + 1x. Not 2<nothing>

But if a = x, and x = 1, then a = 1, rite? So a + x would be the same as 1 + 1, which is 2

Actually, you're wrong. Sorry. Since a=x, 2a= a+x is true because (a+x) is really (a+a).
Like I said, the only thing wrong here (and what makes this false) is that he divides by zero. Most people learn this equation in high school.

Now if you take the square root of impossible and multiply it by sarcasm you get this thread.
Case closed.

Don't post shit on the thread, for the math discussion only
your just too dumb to even do it

Please, flame and math are the two things most hated on the internet.

1. If your saying a=x then that is the answer.
2. Why are you adding a to both sides in the first place.
3. The final 'simplify' doesn't work due to the fact that only works when things are being multiplied, not as an equal to.
-
It seems the answers needs to be No solutions or All solutions because A=X can be any digit which means all solutions, If 2=1 is the answer it's no solutions because X or A would need to equal the digit 1 or two. And as what nikoali said with your final outcome with 2(a-a)=1(a-a) would equal 0=0 so it's an error in math then because you're dividing by zero.
-
Alongside that, if your saying a=x then a would have to be equal to x, being that of the same number - so therefore 2=1 is wrong.
-
According to my textbook, everything he's done in here is right, except for the last step, where he divides by (a-x) which equals zero because a=x. So..case closed. You guys can argue about anything else wrong here, but there isn't anything else wrong. It's only the last step.

Many textbooks are different to others due to specifications and such.
There are a few errors in there, and its not as if im retarded, I got an A grade in GCSE(up to 16 yo) and im doing A level mathematics at college.
Its a random equation where he adds stuff for no given reason, the middle is okay and the end is wat.
