You ever watch mythbusters? right now I'm watching the giant slingshot episode. It worries me that I am seeing exactly where they are going to run into problems before they run into them. Not because I forsee the problems, but because I've made them myself.

Here's the item needing to be proofed (this is not homework, but I'm very interested in it). Show that for each odd prime number y, there is exactly one positive integer x such that x(x+y) is a perfect square. Thanks for any help/leads, etc.. -Steve

Lately I've been using my mp3 player to listen to lectures given by college professors. Each course is divided into 12 to 48 lectures each one 30 to 60 minutes long. Which is about how long I sat in most of my college classes. I just wish I could have gone through college as fast as I'm going...

Assuming it exists(and upon checking the answer is 1, but I'll be damned if I can get it) (e^x * tan^-1 y) / y the limit as (x,y)->(0,0) I can't find a path where the denominator isn't 0 or cancels out that goes through the point 0,0, so I can't, you know, solve it.

Hey everyone. New member here. Thought I would say "howdy." I'm not really scientific though I did use a stripped down lamp cord to jump start my girlfriend's cat's heart when it passed out, don't know if that counts since it was pure instinct but now she thinks I'm a hero and the cat doesn't...
