It has been proven. So please give me 3 AL points! You won't lose anything because it's equal to 0 AL points!!!

I don't!

the answer is obviously 8===>

The answer is 42.

the answer isn't

it just isn'ts

The answer is more questions.

We have been talking all this time about x, BUT WHAT ABOUT Y???

Why aren't we talking about y?

Is y in any way worse than x???

Please, think about it!

I’m not sure what kind of math that was but it wasn’t algebra.

Even though the concepts of algebra was sorta used.

There is no error! All steps are legitimate. They're simple mathematical operations like division, multiplication etc.

It even excluded x which is 0 in the beginning, so no one can claim that there was division by 0, which would be an error.

WE MUST ACCEPT THE CONCLUSION! IT HAS BEEN PROVEN NOW!!!

The 2nd step takes a leap and changes the formula based on a different first step that did not take place.

In other words the 2nd step is not math at all. You cannot use two different 1st steps in algebra to arrive at a 2nd step contrive from both.

Algebra follows a logical sequence to arrive at the correct answer. Which means two 1st steps cannot be taken to arrive at a 2nd step. Use must use one or the other 1st step.

The formula just proves math can be done wrong which occurs often and therefore you arrive at an incorrect conclusion.

If you have a set of two equations you can substitute the variable from the first one to the second one, right?

Like e.g. here: https://www.purplemath.com/modules/systlin4.htm

And you can just use the same equation twice. It's not an error.

In other words, you start with a set of two equations which happen to be identical:

x^2 + x + 1 = 0
x^2 + x + 1 = 0

(The two equations cannot be contradictory, because it's the same equation and an equation cannot contradict itself.)

You divide the first equation by x (x is not 0).

x + 1 + 1/x = 0
x^2 + x + 1 = 0

You find x from the second equation.

x + 1 + 1/x = 0
x = - x^2 - 1

And you substitute.

-x^2 - 1 + 1 + 1/x = 0

-x^2 + 1/x = 0

The next steps as in the post above.

So there is no problem at all.

And this problem has nothing to do with substitution.

Thus it’s a pointless point.

Substitution occurs after you solve for the other not while you are solving a problem.

Again this isn’t math.
