Re: In the Name of Equity, California Will Discourage Students Who Are GIFTED at Math
I literally know multiple people educated by LAUSD that don't know the answer to:

"If you're traveling at 60 miles per hour, how long does it take you to go 60 miles?"
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74155759


thats easy for even a moron.

Try the snowplow problem....my answer by the way is the question cannot possibly be answered with the given information and they didnt like it when I proved why with simple logic. Here is the "snowplow problem", and variations of it show up on every calculus final:


. One morning it begins snowing heavily, and continues snowing at a constant rate. At noon a snowplow starts down a long road, clearing the snow as it goes. At 1:00 a second plow starts at the same place and follows the first plow, clearing the snow that has fallen since the first plow passed. At 2:00 the second plow catches up to the first. When did it start snowing?


----------------------------------------------------

We are NOT given and DO NOT have all of the information to answer this question with certainty.


To answer it several assumptions must be made, without any given information indicating it:

1. there was no snow on the road before the time t0 when it started snowing.
2.there is no snow on the road immediately after a plow passes.
3.A plow (driven by different driver) can clear a constant amount of snow per unit time.

It also requires the assumption be made that 2 different plow's speed driven by two different drivers is inversely proportional to the depth of snow.

None of these things are true in the real world and thus the correct answer is "there is not enough given information to answer this question"

WHen they tried to mark it wrong I made jackasses out of them

Point being math can be used in some cases but most of the time in the real world calculus is quite useless.

Thank god my youngest is a senior in HS and is currently enrolled in AP Calculus. I would be going ape-shit if some liberal teachers union cubicle worker told me that I couldn't enroll my child into the appropriate class level.

If I ever have grandchildren they will 'NOT' be educated in California.... PERIOD!!

If you were on uneven terrain like driving through mountains, on a perfectly straight road you wouldn't go 60 miles in 60 minutes, nor would you on a curved road.. There is not enough information to give an answer. When you say "how long does it take you to go 60 miles" you could mean as the crow flies on a map, or on the odometer of a car.


And only a truly smart person would see that the miles on an odometer are not how far you actually traveled.. One that thinks he's smart will say an hour, it's the most obvious answer, and the wrong answer almost 100 percent of the time..

This is what the left is all about. Rather than try to elevate people, they instead seek to tear down the best and bring them down to the level of everybody else.

Equalizing the unequal! It's disgusting.
All billionaires, banksters, and people in high-ranking positions of power (both public and private) who have not openly and strongly come out against woke ideology and globalism are our enemies - as are their minions. They are the NWO.

Simple analogy. Say a lake is five miles across and you cross it in a boat. Along the way you have to go around obstructions and other boats. How far did you go?

FIVE MILES. But if you were going five MPH it would take well over an hour.
