To put it into perspective, think like this.

How will boomer teachers affect the next generation of Americans?

The answer my friend is blowing in the wind, millennials and their ideology (Social Justice) is the product of the 60s hippies, who now run the academia, so once our generation is in charge of academia - it will produce a much more radicalised generation.

Our future is grim now that the bad hombres are in charge.

What's wrong?
They already sawed one piece, so it's safe to assume that they will be twice as fast now working on a new piece to saw.

cutting a board into 2 takes 1 single cut. That single cut took her 10 minutes (fucking woman).
cutting a board into 3 pieces takes 2 cuts. if 1 cut takes her 10 minutes, how long will 2 cuts take her? 20 minutes.

The question should be "Why are women so fucking useless?"

depends on where she cuts the board, entirely. Without this, we don't know the answer they're looking for and 20, 15, or 2.46 minutes are all plausible answers

That's why you demand the pupil to explain his reasoning in 2-3 sentences. It requires him to think critically and refines his reading comprehension. But I guess that's too much work for the teacher?

>>130650867
1 board, cut into 2 pieces by making 1 single cut which takes 10 minutes to complete. Take 1 board and make 2 cuts to get 3 boards. Your answer is 20 lads, stop hurting your brains. 10 minute per cut, 2 cuts to get 3 boards = 20 minutes.

Too much effort mate, let's watch some hearthstone unpacking instead

Teacher is a moron, she has never cut wood in her life and couldn't conceptualize the problem.

It's like restriction enzymes in DNA, circular plasmid, to linear, to pieces.

She imagined 2 pieces required 2 cuts, instead of 1 board becoming 2.

If the answer is 15 then the board was halved twice. The student should have anticipated that there was information not in the question that he had to understand.

>>130647717
If we assume periodic boundary conditions then 15 min is correct.

>>130650960
She cuts a 1x1 meter board down the middle. It took 10 minutes because she is a useless cunt and now she has 2 boards. If she takes one of those boards, which now has the dimension of 0.5x1 meter, she could cut it down the shortened length. It is half the length of the previous cut and would take half the time. However, the teacher never explains where the second cut takes place, so any length and any amount of time is the right answer because the details of the question are too vague

Also, here's a proof that her logic is flawed:

>20 minutes for 4 pieces
>15 minutes for 3 pieces
>10 minutes for 2 pieces
>5 minutes for 1 piece

That's nonsense because it takes you zero minutes to cut an object already in one piece into piece. She's trying to make them solve a mathematical function like this:

Time = Pieces x 5 minutes
y = 5x

But in reality it's this:
y = 10(x - 1)

>0 minutes for 1 pieces
>10 minutes for 2 pieces
>20 minutes for 3 pieces
>30 minutes for 4 pieces

This is why you don't let women teach math. All of our airplanes in the sky would crash if it were the case.

>>130650867
this. you can cut a board in 2 pieces and have a bit of throwaway material, means 2 cuts.

the question is simply too open and both answers are valid, althought 15 makes more sense.

I think that's what your saying at least.

The answer is supposed to be 15, but the question is just worded incredibly badly.

Took her 10 min to saw that stick (see op pic)
So girly arms factor is taken into account

>>130651805
it took her 9 minutes to find a man to do the work and 1 minute for him to saw it in half
the answer is 11 minutes

1 board = 1
2 peices = 2x
time = 10

2x * 1 = 10
x*1 = 5
x=5 minutes

Yes, the formula is y = 5x but that doesn't mean it makes sense for the example, which is the entire gist of OP's point. It's actually y = 10(x - 1) but you can't argue either because it's not written clearly and requires assumptions on the person answering the question.

See: >>130651855

Neither answer is wrong, it's just a question of which formula is right for the situation.

>>130650960
you're assuming what dimension the board is, lad.

if it's a square board, cut in half, that takes 10 minutes, then cutting one half along the short side would take 5 minutes, therefore 15 could be the correct answer.

But, if she cut the board along the long way, it would be another 10 minutes, where 20 would be the correct answer.

The dimensions of the original board is missing

This is pretty much it. It's either:

or

Mind you, it's a two variable equation, because there's the amount of time taken AND the amount of pieces made.

>not 15

This is the dumbest fucking thread I've seen today. Obviously, Marie will quickly become faster at cutting the wood. (x times y) divided by z. 10 minutes, then 15, then 20, then 15 again until it takes her less than a second to cut wood. Eventually, she'll be cutting wood so fast she'll travel back in time and teach her previous self how to cut wood so fast and then have that Verizon of herself cut wood creating a paradox opening up a rift to an alternate dimension. I really don't know how some of you retards made it out of elementary school desu.

it also depends on the way youre cutting the board.
But if the length of the trajectory of the saw thats cutting the board is the same, you will always need 10 minutes. And to create 3 pieces you have to make 2 cuts, one to turn 1 into 2 and another one to turn the second into 2 leaving the first one in tact, 1 + 2 = 3 This is assuming the "cutter getting better and needing less time" which is negated by the text of the assignment.

This happens far too often as well.
I remember giving exact same answers as the person before me during an oral exam and we got different grades.
Grades are not the biggest issue though, there is no way you fail no matter what the teacher does subtly, my issue is disinformation, people see the little check mark next to their answer and think theyre correct without considering the duality of the question and different applications of concepts it applies. At any rate it teaches people to be dumber.

>>130651523
>>130651725

Actually both of you have a point. Yes pic in OP's post shows clearly the "Stick", however, the educational system, especially in the UK and United States have fallen so below par, just to give an advantage to the Negros and Spics, and other Minorities.

In the US alone, President Bush (The second one) Instilled the "No Child Left Behind." Policy which made it where no child can fail, no matter how dumb. This wishful thinking only lead to children who was not getting it, to really not get it. Because these children didn't understand the material, the teachers didn't care to even teach and the entire class adverage was lowered as a result and teaching became babysitting.

Then the UK and America pushes this "Common Core" Bull which the teacher, like the block of wood, can cut it at any which way they want to make the answer valid. They can pass or fail anyone because they change everything about the answer. The Sky is Red, 2+2=5, and I am a Coconut.

Ir remember kids getting different scores for the same answers in highschool. I personally would get a lower score than others on a report. Even though i was the only one who had seriously researched the topic. Many older people have told me there are a selected few in universities who get to have others take their tests and do their homework without any protest from the teacher. Education is bullshit. Some study a while back showed coal miners with a GED can school their children to a higher standard than the average public school. Public school is all about social control. They promote the next generation of psychopathic, social managers to the top while wasting everyone else's time with state propaganda and mental conditioning

If I were the kid's parents I would threaten to break the teacher into 1 pieces.

But the board also is half the size the second time you saw it.

>>130656578
And you can also just cut corners and get 50 pieces in the same time. The question is open to so many interpretations that you would actually need a proper framework within which you are calculating.
They could be half the size, and they could not be. If youre cutting parallel lines thent he time is always the same, if you are not it isnt.

>the educational system, especially in the UK and United States have fallen so below par, just to give an advantage to the Negros and Spics, and other Minorities.

You Europeans should line up every sub90 IQ arab and kill them. I transferred from a majority white school to a half beaner school. It was night and day. The half beaner school had no standards and the beaner attitude had rubbed off on the white people. Carl Jung was mostly right in his "Your Negro and Indian Behavior" book. Once the tards get citizenship they destroy everything. Arabs are all genetically damaged and retarded from inbreeding. They're probably worse than Mexicans.

>>130656959
It's not open to interpretation. Cutting a board into pieces means something completely different than "cutting pieces off of a board" which would be the required wording for the teacher to not be a retard.

>>130657197
Again, are you doing parallel lines or lines at a 90 degree angle.
If you split the whole board into 100 pieces, then you made 100 pieces of the board. If you cut 1/100th of the board into a piece, then you are cutting pieces off of a board. Where is the line? Equal proportions? If such is the case you need 20 minutes for the trajectory of the cut needs to stay the same. Uneven proportions? Then when does cutting a piece off of a board become cutting a board into pieces?
No matter how right your answer may be, realise that this is an argument on semantics.

>>130651926
By your logic:
>it will take me 0 minutes to cut 1 board into 0 pieces
>I will go back in time 5 minutes to cut 1 board into -1 piece

You can't treat this situation as a function.

>>130657469
Except the teacher breaks down her logic. That it takes 5 minutes per piece (because 2 pieces takes 10 minutes and 3 pieces takes 15) thereby leaving no room for interpretation. She (I'm assuming it's a roastie) literally believes that it's possible to cut a board into 1 piece.

>>130657677
if you cut the board half way it's still 1 piece you fucking pirate faggot

>>130647717
1 Board, 1 Incision = 10 minutes/cut
1 Board, 2 incisions= 10*(2) minutes/cut

No. Even though the boomers were wrong about a lot, their movement and the feeling behind it was genuine and came from the heart. You need that to create any art of lasting value. Those they inculcated lack this. They are just following program intended to make them feel self righteous. This why 60s produced Warhol and SJWs produced some bitch shitting in a Campbells soup can on her period.

INFERNO DIFFICULTY: IT'S A PIECE OF CHIP-BOARD.

Could be a ring-shaped board.

>>130658020
That still makes cutting it into one piece logically impossible. Cmon guys. We have to save this teacher's credibility. We have to figure out how to cut a board into one pieces.

>>130650020
I never understood this. For example, back when i was in high school, the textbooks were never "2n = 1y 4n=?". No, they were always "A new theme park opened in Mathisfunville . Mary and her best friend, Jessica, brought 2 tickets for 1$. Next day, she and Jessica went to the theme park and bought 2 more tickets, one for Jessica's sister, Ann, and another for Mary's sister, Sophia. How much did they pay for the second trip ?

Literally why ?

>>130657677
She leaves no room for interpretation of her logic, sure, that doesnt mean that the question has no room of interpretation.
What is the best food? Question open to interpretation
Well best food definitely has to be rice because its easy and cheap to make in large amounts. Logic not open to interpretation.
Doesnt mean that the answer is right, since if you change your interpretation of the word "best" from "cheapest" to most tasteful, then rice falls of the chart and so on.

>It takes 5 minutes to cut a board into 1 pieces

Hmmmm, really makes one ponder

>>130656578
The length changes, yes, but the thickness through which Marie cuts through in 10 mins doesn't. As such, each cut through takes 10 mins regardless of length. To cut a board into three pieces, Marie needs to spend 20 minutes.

calm down

correct answer is just a social construct

>>130658144
Except we're not talking about subjective intangibility here. You can literally follow every word of that question and recreate the scenario in the physical world.

What kind of retard spends 10 minutes cutting a single board?

>>130647717
what is this shit? 3rd class primary school? how retarded you have to be to give wrong answer?

>>130658284
It's on a spectrum

>>130658074
She didn't write anything about one piece. Cutting a ring into two pieces requires 2 cuts. Cutting a ring into 3 requires 3 cuts.

>>130653299


you are correct in what you have stated. However the teacher is wrong because her text says cut a board into 2 pieces and three pieces.

She does not say cut 2 or three pieces off a board.

>>130658074
Easy.

1 piece - 5 min
2 pieces - 10 min
3 pieces - 15 min

Explanation: 5 mins goes for preparation, so actual cutting takes

1 piece - 0 min
2 pieces - 5 min
3 pieces - 10 min

Problem solved.

Go to a building supply store, purchase a ring shaped length of wood and come back here with a picture of it and I will call you anything but a retard.

>>130658305
Yes i can, and within that question i can do 2 cuts necessary to make the board into 3 pieces as such: board1 | board2 |board3. But i can also do
Board1| Board2
| - -------
| Board3

In case the formatting breaks upon posting. Here is a picture anon posted for the second version of cutting. As well as the first one.

Board n.
>a thin, flat, rectangular piece of wood or other stiff material used for various purposes, in particular.

It has to be thin, flat and rectangular to be technically defined as a board.

It's going to be bad. Most don't have the capacity to think critically nor the attention span to sit and deeply consider concepts. As said elsewhere this is not their fault, but rather the boomers and other postmodern ilk.

The good news is gen zed is based and nature has programmed in adolescent rebellion for exactly this kind of situation. I have faith they'll see through the programming and look for other better sources of information. Zeds have already done this in media, choosing youtube over mainstream.

>cut the board along its height in half so it's 1mm thin in 10 minutes
>cut one of the pieces in half in an instant because it's 1mm thin
it's 10 min + 1 sec

>>130647717
Now I understand why my gf expects all our diy to be done instantly.

This is a retarded question. Whoever made that question should not be a teacher.
It depends how you cut the board. You can cut a board into 3 pieces by just sawing 2 tiny little edges off of it and that would take 2 seconds.
Maybe I'm just autistic?

>>130658126
Because equations are racist.

>>130647717
If it took her 10 minutes to saw it in 2 pieces, and if she were to work just as fast, it would still take her 10 minutes to saw it into 3 pieces.

Sawing it in half gives 2 pieces, so sawing one of them in half again will still take the same amount of time. Since she is working just as fast, we can assume she is doing two times faster. 10 divided by 2 is 5. Both the student and teacher is wrong.

>>130647717
Doesn't matter because I'm not letting my kid step into public schools.

>>130658835
That's usually the case with all of those memes. The question is fundamentally flawed and people argue over it based on the first way they assumed it to be.

Though, it's not quite as bad as those threads with the arithmetic problems written to have an arbitrary order of operations.

>>130658908
I like this answer.

>>130650672
It's just a dumb question, really.
The teacher should've picked literally anything else,like
>John makes 2 lightbulbs in 10 minutes, how much time it will take him to make 3 lightbulbs if he does it at the same speed.

>>130658908
objectively correct, i withdraw my argument that the teach was right.

>>130659102
It depends on how lazy John is as he might as well make a lightbulb in 2 minutes and being a lazy shit in the remaining 8 minutes.

>>130659255
John lives in a communist regime and has a consistent paycheck regardless of how good he performs

>>130657020
Well, I come from a traveling family so I have experienced many schools, and with it, many school systems. Both Public schools and Private. I agree, it is night and day.

Arabs though gave us Algebra, they aren't that dumb where did those arabs go? Who knows but the ones which flood American and the UK are dumber than a box of rocks. And the Negros are truly dumb. You won't see allot in a private school, and that is because they just can't keep up with the whites.

I personally witnessed the biggest night and day when the school that I was attending broke the students into 2 separate "houses". Discovery House and the Explorer House. I was apart of the Discovery which was predominantly white, and it was more advanced in learning. However, thanks to a quite pervy teacher, many students, I included was moved out of that house and into the Explorer house which had many minorities, to which didn't give a darn about their education and were highly disobedient.

I remember a student being escorted out for threatening the teacher. It was a whole new world and even myself have come under threat by the rambunctious students. And for where I was in the Discovery house, we were about 3 chapters back in all subjects if not more and it felt highly watered down in comparison.

But something that makes me laugh looking back is that this was no more than Segregation, and to be honest it worked. It was unfortunate that I was pulled out from one of the house, but it gave me something that I probably would of never seen if not for that incident. The minorities, being hispanic or negros never once showed discipline nor care for themselves or education and for the few that do, it just holds them back. It is why I hate this "No Child Left Behind" and "Common Core" so much. It holds everyone back.

John spends 2 hours making light bulbs as fast as he can and meets his daily light bulb count requirement so he can fuck around the rest of the day.

Arab countries were smart when the Greeks and Persians they conquered were still alive. Arabs are all inbred retards.

I saw unofficial segregation at the half beaner school. One teacher moved me into the smart kid science course. The one where people actually did the work.
