American Education

…why????

6=4+2=5+1=6
tadah

You can solve 1 side.

American Education

oxymoron

4+2 = 5+1

4(+1)+(1) = 5+1

5+1=5+1

and dont gimme any of that 5 +1 = 6 or 4+2= 6 because my sunday school teacher said so crap

4x+2x=5x+1

6x=6x

x=x

Common core. Blacks don't think as well so they are focusing on how you think about the equation. I think you are supposed to subtract one from the 2 on the left and add it to the 4 so both sides are 5+1.

can you prove that 6=6 without mathing

Maybe I'm just a moron, but I'm not getting the point here.

What it wants is for you to be able to state that since 5 is (1)one more than 4, and since 1 is (1)one less than two both sides must be the same.
The differences in big and small numbers cancelled out.
I didn't need to solve either side.

This prepares you for cancelling out parts of equations in algebra.

I also thought that is how you’re supposed to answer the question, either way it’s completely retarded.

What, you mean first graders aren't reading Principia Mathematica any more?
It only took, what, 300 pages to prove that 1+1=2? this should surely be a pretty easy extension of that.

5x +1 is not 5x+1x anon.

The entirety of common core is a mistake. They attempted to go into the actual thought process behind solving stuff and micromanage it. Its the opposite of how kids are usually taught. Pre puberty the brain just absorbs everything so route memorization and drills work really well. Its only during puberty and after that the brains needs some kind of reward to remember. Its why kids are so good at picking up language.

They are literally controlling the way you think.

You can't. This is actually an unconscious bias test. You figured it out, but they want you to pretend you didn't. But the fact is that you have solved it and that will influence your answer no matter what. They just want you to act like you didn't.

If it mattered, they wouldn't use numbers. It would a + b = x + y.

1Il

What the fuck is wrong with that font?

What if x=1?

I'm retarded in math so I'll guess like all the other retards.

4 + x = 5 + y

Even plus even = even
Odd plus odd = even
1 is less then two, 5 is more than 4

That's the best I can do.

I love redditt

solves both sides of the equation

Sasuga, mutt-sama.

6 = 6 I'm not explaining anything it's just math retard

This is how Trump calculates tariffs.

Just write "yes" in the answer field.
Problem solved

What do they want? Do i just add both sides to both sides?

1+2+4+5 = 1+2+4+5?

Then its not solved but its definitely equal.

I take the 4 + 2 then stick it in your ass forcefully and proceed to do the same for the 5 + 1. If both sides fit neatly without blood loss, then they are equal.

can you not use your brain in order to fulfill my stupid request

It's a logic problem they're asking, not a math on.
Even plus even equals even, logically.
Odd plus odd equals odd, logically.
2 > 1 logically by 1
5 > 4 logically by 1
So the resulting answer to the problem MUST logically be the same number.
Without solving either problem, we know the answer must be even, and must be the same. We don't need to know the numeric answer, just that it must logically be the exact same answer.

Do not think in math, think in logic. Easy as fuck to do if you aren't mentally retarded. We learned this logical deduction in elementary school in the 80s and 90s.

No. It's impossible to prove this without solving both sides.
Let me explain.

If you didn't immediately solve them both as you were reading the question, thus solving them BEFORE you were told not to solve them, you're a brainless cunt.
If your brain didn't see that and immediately go SIX then you're a mental reject and I don't care about your foppery in trying to solve this without solving it.

You should have, immediately, disqualified yourself from the question.

Thats quite the assumption youve made

4+(1+1)=(4+1)+1
easy, next question

solve this without solving it

Huh?

prove that 6 = 6 without proving it, chud.

Literally the meme

Solve 2+2 but don't say it's 4

I myself dream of marrying a high-IQ (pic related) American woman with raven hair and blue eyes, and a vocalist in a Christian rock band.

definitions
2 is defined as 1+1
4 is defined as 1+1+1+1
so its 1+1+1+1+1+1=1+1+1+1+1+1 if you expand all terms to their definitions

what is the answer they want
the question makes no sense

it certainly has a lot of morons on oxy in it

4+2=5+1
4+2=4+1+1
4+2=4+2

polish education

We need a vote of confidence for the education system in the next election. I don't know how it became so fucked up over the last twenty years, but our kids are not learning from this crap. We should be starting class action lawsuits

No. It's impossible to prove this without solving both sides.

I just did it right here- They aren't asking you what the problems add up to, only how they add up to the same result. You're trying to think in math terms, that's low-order thinking. Using logic is high-order thought.
It's a trap for retards that can't fucking read. It's a philosophical grammatical question using numbers, not math.

Nigga how can you be so smug when you don't know the difference between solve and prove

"without solving the equation"

It's probably this.
Common core math seems to be all about visual pattern recognition because they think that makes it easier for subhumans to comprehend.

You're not supposed to assume X has any value when writing the equation

i look at it and it's true
the end

6=5+1
6-1=5
4=6-2
i guess since both sides give the sum to either the left or right it proves that both sides must equal 6.
idk

1+1+1+1+1+1=1+1+1+1+1+1

This is not a bad question to think about reasoning outside of the narrow framework of numbers themselves.
You have some operators: x$y = m$n
and then some definitions of the x, y, m, and n as numbers defined by some relation
Translate the operations into the relation

An abstract approach could invoke anti-relations (an inverse) which generates a solution expression. For example:

(x#k)$(y$k) [$p]= (m#z)$(n$z) [#p] | [x] only appears on one side of an equation
Where our our condition Q{p = 0} (in a case like this) or that can be taken to some other relation as well.

In short though, mathematics is analytical. The evaluation/simplification of abstract strings into recognizable definitions is a requirement for proofs. This is one of the most critical arguments against induction proofs which leverage irresolute terms like infinity.

Remember: if you control for race, White American education is better than most European countries'.
The problem isn't the education system, it's niggers.

Commie Core.: lets make shit retarded because niggers cant math

The people here replying to a reddit thread

The people there probably circle jerking how smart they are for solving a children's exam question

Who's worse without bringing up either side? Explain.

This an autism test

4+2= OP IS A FAGGOT

How do you prove 4 = 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 without evaluation? You have just moved the goal post.

Based.

four is one less than five

two is one more than one

therefore, it weighs out

pretty easy

easy 4+2=6

Becayse The Deciders have decided it is so.

How do you answer the question without solving the equation?

4 is two away from 6 and 5 is one away from 6.

4+2 = 4 + 1 + 2 - 1 = 5 + 1
It's pointless but not hard.

Draw four dots and two dots on one side
Draw five dots and one dot on the other

Proof is, there is now same amount of dots on both sides.

I was simply offering a scenario where it could work.

Anybody with higher order thinking eventually rejects negative numbers in their entirety.

the polish algebra that sends astronauts into the sun

4 = 1 + 1 + 1 + 1
2 = 1 + 1
5 = 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1
1 = 1

So
4 + 2 = 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1
and
5 + 1 = 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1

Same number of 1s on both side, therefore grug prove

ah an intuitionist has shown up. I also do all my accounting in braille

4+2=5+1
1+1+1+1+1+1=1+1+1+1+1+1

Nigger questions deserve nigger solutions

why are you retards introducing algebraic variables?

Poles can't into order-of-operations.

How about this
6-2=4
6-1=5
This is supposedly first grade so they probably don’t know anything about algebra

There you go. Bingo. Basic logic.

4+2=5+1
(4+1)+1=5+1
5+1=5+1

tf

tp

LMAO

Common core was designed to keep whites from doing well in school, the creator openly admits this

Negative numbers are just subtractions in disguise

You guys are stupid lmao, just move the 1 over from the 2 and make both sides equal, it's a like a scale

4+2=5+1
the SPQR solution
IV+II=V+I

5-1=4
1+1=2
4+2=4+2

you can't demonstate two number equal eachother without evaluation

lets add a third one in there to really clarify

Ah yes, argument from obfuscation.

+1 both side
5 +2 = 5 +2
technically I have not solved either side

Poland was never a nation of great minds and it shows.

it was an attempt by a jew to teach avg 85 IQ niggers in the US mental arithmetic in the hope it would make them perform the same as 100 IQ whites

he failed obviously because he is wrong about humans, the world and reality and because he is jew

Reduce all numbers to the sum of their units:

4 is 1+1+1+1
2 is 1+1

5 is 1+1+1+1+1
1 is just +1

Now you have the exact same number of +1 in both sides.

This is the most clear and simple one I can thing off and is something that a first grader can understand well, but I like the guy here that just added +1 to both sides. It's not as clear for a first grader, but is much more simpler and elegant.

Because I'm always right, even when I'm wrong.
I'm the RIGHT kind of wrong.

4+2 = 5+1

(2+2)+2=(2+2+1)+1

(2+2)+2=(2+2)+2

2+2=2+2

2=2

U=U

UwU

4+2=5+1
(1-1)+4+2=5+1
(1+4)+(2-1)=5+1
5+1=5+1

Write No. And then refuse to elaborate

Not to sound boomer here but I think it's the damn phones
Modern children have been coddled by technology since like 2010, I'll watch my 12 year old niece struggle with her homework so she just yells "hey Alexa what's 5x7" and gets her answer without any thought
The opioid epidemic also did a number on gen Z and gen alpha, their parents gorked out all hours of the day or in jail weren't around to nurture any intelligence into these children

It is a stupid question, so the affirmative action subhumans cannot get it wrong.
Mathematical prove is in the solving

Would be a nice exercise for 4 yo learning to count and sum. 5 yo if girl.

you cannot.

I understand what you did there and it’s not wrong.. but something about it was cringe

Based

I solve 4+2=6.
I get a buddy to solve the other side and report the answer for comparison.
I have not solved both sides of the equation.

The point is a white boy/ man will solve the equation, because that is what supposed to prove it out. The white boy/ man will get the answer wrong.
A nigger or a cunt will write about their feelings. Write about their oppression. Write about muh nubas n sheeeeit,

its the jews for the nigs not the phones, we have the guy who created common core on video

It came to me in a dream.

1+1+1+1+1+1=1+1+1+1+1+1

Here is how you do it without solving both sides:

on the left

4 is 1 more than 3
2 is 1 less than 3
Together they are equal to 2 3s.

on the right

5 is 2 more than 3
1 is 2 less than 3
Together they are equal to 2 3s

I just can't believe they'd rather do this shit then just wait like 10 years and give niggers brain chips.

4+2=6
1+1+1+1+1+1=6
(1+1+1+1+1)+1=6
5+1=6

You just moved it, it said without solving not without evaluating both sides retard

this guy common cores

I like phone so it's not phone

I hate blacks and Jews so it's them!!

You are as retarded as the average American child

feelings/oppression test

Ah. Just like the FAA ATC exams.

Because using variables allows you to prove it as true without actually solving the equation since you assume the variable has no value

Assume the equation is not valid. Therefore 4 + 2 is strictly greater or smaller than 5 + 1.
We distinguish between two cases:

First case: 4 + 2 < 5 + 1.
This means there is a positive real number x such that
4 + 2 + x = 5 + 1.
Since the integers with addition form a group, x must be an integer. Also x must be positive and unique. From previous work we now that 1 < 2 holds. This leads to the following estimation
4 + 2 + x < 5 + 2
Canceling out the 2 yields
4 + x < 5
However a positive Integer x fullfilling the above equation clearly doesn't exist and we get a contradiction.

Second case: 4 + 2 > 5 + 1.
Analogously to the first case there exists a unique poositve integer x such that following is true
4 + 2 = 5 + 1 + x.
Again we use 1 < 2, this time by adding 3 to both sides wich results in 4 < 5. Hence we can estimate as follows
5 + 2 > 5 + 1 + x.
Canceling out the 5 yields
2 > 1 + x
Again, a positive Integer x fullfilling the above equation doesn't exist meaning we also get a contradiction for the second case.

Thus our assumption was wrong and 4 + 2 is indeed equal to 5 + 1 as claimed.

I refuse to do this, math is racist

fuck off snownigger, you haven't done shit in like 1000 years

(2+2)+2=(2+3)+1

sorry, you're probably not white
so just nigger

4+2-5=1

just go
5-1 + 1+1
are you retarded or just not white?

My son hates this garbage. He says the math is retarded. This is math for niggers. Theyre trying to make all the other kids as dumb as niggers. At least all the white kids can easily ace this garbage. Unfortunately the miggers can also ace it because it's literally retarded nigger math.

Fortunately, Trump is gutting the department of education. Those kikes can get fucked.

Adding an X simply changes the equation to a different one so he is wrong

????? I guess the only real answer to this stupid question is simply putting "they equal to the same result, they're just different variables."
Why tf would they add without solving both sides of the equation?

it's a terrible way to "teach"
and only exists because the "education" system has to come up with a new approach roughly every 10 years

read picrel and be shocked at what American education is really all about
(keeping you dumb, building consoomers) and how they do it

can you get to 6 in an infinitely harder and more inefficient way

no

4+2=5+1
5 -> IIIII
4 -> IIII
2 -> II
1 -> I
IIII+II=IIIII+I
IIIIII=IIIIII

Both sides have an equal number of I's.

Can you prove that?

Yeah.

Explain

Right, it's because I'm smart.

verbal gotcha in 1st grade

What's the fucking point of it?

is this actually a 1st grade problem? Like yes adults here can say "well 4 is 1 less than 5 and 2 is 1 more than 1 so they cancel out" but how many 6-year-olds can actually do that? How many 6-year-olds can even understand what this problem is asking and be able to write an answer? Most 1st graders can barely read or write at all.

you're almost correct except

most

you mean "ALL"
We aren't better than "most" European countries we are better than ALL European countries. Pic-related. If you control for immigrants:
American Asians are #1 in the world.
American Whites are better than any non-Asian country.
American Hispanics are better than any Hispanic country.
American Blacks are better than any African country.

Control for race and immigration and America is the #1 education system in the whole world.

4+2-5=1

And what the fuck does that prove, Hans?
I'm I supposed to count all of the 1s and thus solve the problem?

That is the stupidest shit I have ever read. You don't have to break something down to the point where it looks like a riddle from a brothers grim story. Common core needs to fuck itself

THIS GUY IS A PRODUCT OF THE AMERICAN EDUCATION SYSTEM

retarded shit cropped in a twitter screencap with no context

glad to see pol still falling for obvious rage bait

we got the jew who created it on camera saying why he created it for what purpose
sorry that your boomer brain can not parse that

Hey look another white person on brown pol
Hello sunshine

Disappointed it too somebody this long.

(4+1) + 2 = 5 + (1+1)
5 + 2 = 5 + 2

Most 1st graders can barely read or write at all.

the brown kids can't read, sure, but the White ones are being taught proofs in 1st grade. I know what you're thinking, back in your day, that was an optional college-level class for those extra interested in higher mathematics, but yes, we are teaching it to first graders.

You move a number over across the = sign (which reverses the number).

4 + 2 = 5 + 1 turns to....

4 + 2 - 1 = 5
or
4 + 2 - 5 = 1
or
4 = 5 + 1 - 2
or
2 = 5 + 1 - 4

It's "Higher Order Thinking" because the two answers are

No

Sentence fragment

EVERY COUNTRY gets one score
but the USA has to divide their racial groups lol

FACT: USA = #20 on that list (without the stupid racial groupings)

It's actually a fun math problem, NPCs cannot think beyond solving both sides.

4 + 2 = 5 + 1
4 - 1 = 5 - 2

you only have to avoid solving one side, the obvious solution is to just solve the right side

This is a question asking if it can be proven without proving it essentially the answer is no.
They should teach this shit. I had a Chinese exchange student when I was in 5th grade and that mother fucker could do calculus without paper.
We dumb down the education for niggers and then none of the whites pay attention because they're fucking bored and then they have all this time to be exposed to retarded niggers and this is why no one can divide.

Anon just proved Denmark Anon is a nigger.

I am so glad I don't go to public school these days. They where decent when I was growing up but if you put your kids in government school these days you straight up don't love them.

Homeschool your kids!

Homeschool your kids

as someone that was homeschooled, don't. it should be a crime desu.

the burgers ITT trying to explain OP's pic
bless your hearts

This thread is overthinking personified, remember dummies this is a 1st grade problem

I like how this thread proves exactly why these types of questions are needed in school math

S(S(S(S(0))))+S(S(0))=S(S(S(S(S(0)))))+S(0)

A=S(S(S(S(0))))+S(S(0))

A=S(S(S(S(0))))+S(S(0))=S(S(S(S(0)))+S(0))(byrule2)=S(S(S(S(0))+1))

S(S(S(S(0)))+1) = “S(S(S(S(0)))+1)”

Q.E.D.

but I'm not getting the point here

same. just some shit question created by an idiot who doesn't know how to teach in a way that you can understand. i stopped answering this kind of shit in school when i was around 12. the reason i got an F was because the "teachers" weren't capable of teaching. it's easier and faster just to figure it out yourself.

FACT: USA = #20

let's give you 100 million third-worlders and inner-city Blacks and see what number you get.
pic-related is what happend to France after getting a few immigrants, now immagine what would happen if they had what the US has

4+1 = 5
2 -1 = 1
5+1 = 5+1

Rather than solving both sides, you can perform some operations on just one side. But 1st graders really shouldn't be being asked to use this level of reasoning. Their brains aren't really developed enough for most of them to be able to start thinking at a higher level.

we have to guess the retarded ways in which the common core creator thought, it is a very intriguing question, mine is technical correct
but it would not get points for the answer

4 + 2 = 5 (-1) + 1 (+1)
4 + 2 = 4 + 2

This type of thing is called "rote calculation", the goal with rote calculations is to get them out of the way as fast as possible. Dwelling on them, or trying to develop "intuition" about them, is a complete waste of time.

Marcus Aurelius disagrees with you.
besides, no one said "homeschool poorly".

were you homeschooled for reasons other than providing a superior education?

it really doesn't.
it merely provides proof that gimmicky teaching is gimmicky, and that gimmicks get in the way of both teaching and learning.

ummmm akcshyually im not SOLVING it im just EVALUATING it okay???

Koala fucker.

you know, seeing this thread... maybe they really are forced to import indians and there is no ulterior motive.

This reminds me of when I was like 8 doing a monthly review with my teacher, and I was supposed to count some ducks or something. They kept asking me to count them, I'd look at them and then say "seven"

No, you need to count them

I did, there's seven of them

That went back and forth a couple times before they told me I had to count them individually

show me the statistics that say american first graders are now flunking math more than ever because that would have to be the case if they were looking for the retardedly overthought answers in this thread

obviously would get points as would

that looks like Savvas Envision 2020 or some shit
common core has done you well

4+2-5-1
I didnt solve the other half, i made a new equation, where subtracting the other numbers shows by comparison that it is equal.

reddit math

4 + 2 = 5 + 1
Since 5 = 4 + 1
4 + 2 = 4 + 1 + 1
Applying the commutative property on 1 + 1 4 + 2 = 4 + 2

Good for you germ, I'm not saying common core is God's gift to this green earth but you can't deny that ai assistants and other bullshit hasn't removed the need for thinking, especially if you're a plastic brained autistic child whos formative years were spent watching 15 second videos and stopping mom from nodding out

Yeah just subtract 5 from both sides. But I wasn’t aware American schools taught proofing in first grade

they can't read memeflag they must just pooooooooost.

move everything to one side then solve that because they are the same

Trick question. You cannot prove this is true without solving it first. If you want an even Higher way of thinking, you can say that the answer is irrelevant because numbers are a made up system that inherently have no value, just like the concept of “time”. If you want to go even Deeper, you can thusly explain that such as the existence of this very question is even more meaningless because it only exists to purposefully confound the reader. And since such a question was even devised, it means that the person who came up with it then means to do harm to the reader by way up setting up the reader to FAIL… there, I did it. Where’s my cookie?

Add 1 to both sides.
(4+1) + 2 = 5 + (1+1)

They don't teach math they just pretend to as a pretext for teaching jewish mental gymnastics. This is the perfect type of exercise to create people who are vaxmaxxed and still think it's good and 100% effective (if you wear your mask, preferably 2).

America is a jewish cattle tax farm.

See

The = sign means they are either A) equal, or B) the entire education system is dumb. There you go. I didn't solve anything at all. What a great way to teach math. It seems like the answer all along was C) all of the above.

4 + 2 = 5 + 1

5 + 1 = 5 + 1

Is the opposite of rote calculation though, you have to solve it by not calculating anything. Intuition is important for really hard problems

you don't need to

I was following the instructions you autistic fuckwad

Look how good of a goy i am! I did the mental gymnastics! Treat?! Yes treat please! Fiat currency will do :D

Right?? That’s when it went to shit IMMEDIATELY after Trump lost. Glad I wasn’t the only one who saw… ah well, it’s not like screaming into the wilderness is anything “new” for ppl like us. Hope (You) have a good day anon. O7

fuck off back to leftypol you dickless faggot troon. you and your fat tub of lard ass and insufferable narcissist me me me.me.me me personality

they probably have politically conditioned leftist children you can molest over there

Real math does not involve rote calculation. It involves symbols, variables, calculus.
You spend more time thinking about dependent variables to integrate over, or how to parametrize an equation, rather than "does 1 + 1 really equal 2". That shit is a complete waste of your time.
It's such a waste of time that above a certain level they just give you a calculator for the test. Or write the test in such a way the rote calculations are simple and easily done in your head.

Terrence Howard would like to form a partnership with you

Trump lost.

No. You lost.

4 - 5 = -1

2 - 1 = 1

-1 + 1 = 0

Therefore, they are the same.

came into a thread about a trolly problem

ignores entire thread

attack actual anons noticing

(((1 post))))

Ok, bot. lmao

you are assuming that both the sides are equal cuz there’s an equal sign saying it is so.

If words and symbols that have defined meanings mean nothing at all, then why would you type them to make your idiotic point? Just faceroll your keyboard next time.

No, anon. The World lost that day but now we are winning BIGGLY.

Think the proof required would be
(1+1+1+1)+(1+1)=(1+1+1+1+1)+(1)
So you can *show* that each side has an equal amount of amounts

estimate

But what if you don't need to? What if you can just do that in your head? What good is dumbing yourself down by estimating?

Anyone who has actually dealt with rigorous proof would just answer that question with "no".

I toyed with proof by contradiction for a moment but after realizing I was solving each side for the two cases, I decided that I'd need to be allowed to solve everything

the answer is: israel has a right to exist and black lifes matter, I ain't got no pencil

Yep.

I’m reading the context clues of the sentence Before I go ahead and try to participate in the question itself. How can you say, FOR A FACT, that something is going to work if you are not allowed to prove it? “Trust me bro” is your answer? And yes, words and symbols mean nothing to me when posed in such a question as Op has stated. Assume you know Nothing. “Higher thinking” apparently means nothing to anyone either.

It’s a trolly problem. You cannot say something is true without proving it is or isn’t true. That’s literally the answer and that’s why the question says “Explain”.

Absolutely useless exercise
