    It's 9. In case of: x / y * z, where you have equal importance, you go from left to right.

    It can be Over or Of, I think Of makes more sense because (Powers) Of y'know?

    I just saw one of my friends make his status the equation. One girl got on there and was all "It's 1, everyone who says 9 has a common mind. This isn't an insult, I was one too once, but now I have made the changes and I'm not a common mind any more."

    What a bitch She then used an equation she dreamed up to prove why her version of following BOMDAS/PEMDAS etc was superior and smurfed that one up hardcore.

    Moral of the story is: Don't act like a high and mighty superior bastard and your fall from grace won't be as spectacular.

    How are you with Taylor Series? And I hope you mastered finding the volume of an object from a rotation of a function. Those topics are favorites to add to the exam. Also Parametric equations though those are really easy. And I hope you memorized all the inverse trig derivatives. You will need to use them. They make the questions based on BC exclusive content harder just because they can.

    And remember, you get no calculator for the multiple choice questions, and they expect you to be able to do something this simple without a thought.

    On my Calc BC exam they asked for a 6<sup>th</sup> degree Taylor series as the final free response question. BC Calc was so much fun.

    So I really don't know if anyone has answered my question yet of if six halves is the coefficient then why isn't it written as (6/2)(1+2)?

    I'm a language major who is currently failing math. I am only asking questions! I just want answers. Why can't I have answers D:

    No one's answered your question because it doesn't make sense.

    If you're in calc then you should probably do fifth grade math right.

    Why not? If I divide 6 by 2 before I add the 1 and 2 in the parenthesis, I still get the same result.

    Because that's not the equation we're discussing. The actual equation is now in the title with less misleading notation. The 2 is multiplied by what's in the brackets, not 6/2 as a whole. Which is the whole source of this stupid debate.

    When in doubt, use Wolfram Alpha.

    No, it's not, because it has a right answer: 9. This is pretty basic smurfing math; there is no debate.

    I can see a couple of people maybe being a little confused because rubah originally posted the equation slightly different from the original one, but the answer would still be 9. Plug it into Google if it makes you feel better; the answer is smurfing 9.
