Spanish Fry

[#121 :]

Spanish Fry. I'll take my 0.50 points thanks.

[#122 :]

*I wonder what I'll do if more than 9 people reply. Oh well, I'll deal with it if it ever happens.*

Q16: Matt Groening did his last commentary for this episode.

+Q17: What were three charges against Bender when he was arrested by Smitty in "The Cyber House Rules"?+

   

[#123 :]

1. Child cruelty, endangerment and depriving children of food.
2. Selling children as food.
3. Misrepresenting the weight of livestock.

Techncially 5, but I think the first 3 all come under the same general topic.

[#124 :]

*How often are you on Beamer? It seems you've always answered first.*

Q18:

(Total money 5 weeks worth of government checks Bender would get in "The Cyber House Rules" ) x (# of episodes in Broadcast Season 3) x (the # of pts. "The Route of All Evil" is worth, according to the Volume 3, Disc 2 DVD menu) = -?-

[#127 :]

11000.

Also, I'm usually on for about 7-10 hours each day, and I check the board every half-hour or so, hence why I'm usually in the first few people to reply. 

[#128 :]

Yeah, 11000.

Also Beamer, what about your internet hours? You must run out often.

[#129 :]

I'll make up a harder math question next time.....

*chuckles* as he imagines a quadratic formula question

^Damn, that looks really stupid.

+SEE MY PREVIOUS POST FOR NEW QUESTION+

[#130 :]

11000. what an eye saw, I think i should have paid more attention in maths when i was in school!

I don't get charged by the amount of time I'm on, I only pay for the dial-up costs, then pay a monthly fee for the internet.

[#132 :]

11000.  Damn you and your flat rates, Beamer.  Not like I pay hourly for the internet either, but damn you for continuously getting here first.

[#133 :]

11000. Same internet as Beamer and Ricky.

[#134 :]

11000

A: (6,000)x(15)x(1) = 90,000.


*I don't know where you got 11,000 from. Bender adopted 12 kids. Each kid will get him $100. So he gets $1,200 per week. So $1,200x5=$6,000. According to www.gotfuturama.com,  there are 15 episodes in Broadcast Season 3. So 6,000x15=90,000. ("The Route Of All Evil is only worth 1pt., so it isn't a factor.)*

[#138 :]

Dammit Beamer!

(Mucho apologies for the double post, but I had to say it and I don't think Fearless Topic-starter likes us to edit our answers.)

[#139 :]

Cyber house.

Dammit Beamer!

Heh.
'The Cyberhouse Rules', title parodying 'The Cider House Rules'.

*Q20 will be the first, and most likely, the last complex math question asked. I may still ask simple adding, multiplying, etc..., but this is most likely the last complex formula you will have to use.*

*And you have to find out the what the formula is on your own!*

+Q20: Use the following values of a, b, and c, and substitute them into the quadratic formula. Then solve the quadratic formula, and post that answer.

a= # of times Matt Groening did commentary for an entire episode.

b= # of times Professor hasn't been in an episode.

c= # of voice-overs David X. Cohen has done for Futurama+

+REMEMBER THE RULES OF THE QUADRATIC FORMULA!!!+

*As a matter of fact, this is probably the last complex problem I'll post. But remember I'll still post simple math problems!*

[#142 :]

*figures out A, B & C*

*grabs a dictionary and looks up the word 'quadratic'*

...

Fuck that. 

[#143 :]

may as well delete this, since I screwed up the math, guessed the figures, and don't really want to give my opponents any clues.

[#144 :]

OK, OK. I'll post the quadratic formula. Both of you guys can REPOST, but DO NOT EDIT.
 http://www.sosmath.com/algebra/quadraticeq/quadraformula/quadraformula.html


^Go to that link. There should be some box near the top of the page. IN that box, there should be two formulas. You will want the second one.

*In any case, just go to google and find quadratic formula.*

Just to sweeten the pot, the first person to post with the correct ANSWERS, will get double points. (ex. 1st=12, 2nd=10, etc...)
BUT I WILL NOT ACCEPT ANSWERS BEFORE 4:00p.m. PACIFIC STANDARD TIME. POST AFTER THAT TIME ONLY. IF YOU POST AN ANSWER BEFORE, THEN I'LL SUBTRACT THE REGULAR POINTS FROM YOUR OVERALL SCORE.

*^And notice I said answers.*

[#145 :]

I suck at maths so here's my answer.

[Bender] 56ish. [Bender]

[#146 :]

X1 = -0.1428 + 0.1684i
X2 = -0.1428 - 0.1684i

Answers rounded to 4 decimal places.  I have imaginary numbers. 

[#147 :]

I'm glad we can get imaginary numbers in this problem 

[#148 :]

Helped work it out with Anday and Nick:
X1 = -0.1428 + 0.1684i
X2 = -0.1428 - 0.1684i

[#149 :]

Nothin' to see here, folks...

[#150 :]

my complete guess is 5000! (i cant add!) and aint it before 4pm PST?

[#151 :]

X1 = -0.1428 + 0.1684i
X2 = -0.1428 - 0.1684i

I win again!

*You're right, but I can't tell what time you guys posted. (I don't understand how that number thing next to the date works.) So if any of you did answer before 4:00p.m.[pst], you lucked out.*

_____________________________ _____________________
A: a=71 (He left to make a phone call in "The Farnsworth Parabox", and never came back.)

b=2 I don't know which episodes, but it is two.

c=2 This is Vergon 6 voice (1ACV04)
Phone voice (4ACV18)

*Substitute into the quadratic formula.
*Answer should be +0.15315 or -0.18132 .

*No exceptions. (There would be an i somewhere where my answers are.) Sorry, because I'm not good in math, I probably shouldn't have done this. So I won't do it again. So even if I am wrong, too bad.*

[#153 :]

*Sorry for the double-post, but I don't want to clutter the new question with all that other stuff I wrote in my last post.*

*If any of you posted an answer to the old Q21, you may repost the answer to the new question. DO NOT EDIT YOUR POST!*

+Q21: David X. Cohen says the voice actors are afraid to impersonate his voice in which episode commentary?+

[#154 :]

The Cyber House Rules.

[#155 :]

Cyber house?

[#156 :]

*I'm gonna have to come up with harder questions.*

+SEE PREVIOUS POST FOR NEW QUESTION.+

[#157 :]

That'd be good... unless by "hard", you mean "complicated maths shit", in which case - I'm getting the gun. 

[#158 :]

Cyberhouse Rules.  And you just did this one in Jeopardy.  And I'm positive your answers to the last one are wrong, because they have no i's and also, they should be (some real number) +- (some real number)i, rather than just (some real number)i/b], which you imply.

[#159 :]

Also, shouldn't a be 73? I'm pretty sure Groening also did the 2 alternate commentaries for Jurrasic Bark & Roswell That Ends Well...
