<p>That’s like saying</p>
<p>dog = cat</p>
<p>I agreed with this statement.</p>
<p>You’d need a pretty precise measurement to tell them apart.</p>
<p>You can’t tell them apart.</p>
<p>.999… repeating infinitely equals 1. I agree.</p>
<p>I agree. 2 = 1.9999… is true also.</p>
<p>For those who don’t believe it, try to subtract 1-0.9999… What do you get? 0.00…01? That’s impossible because there’s an infinite number of 9s in 0.999 and thus an infinite number of 0s in the difference.</p>
<p>x=.999…
10x=9.999…
10x-x=9.999…-.999…
9x=9
x=1</p>
<p>
I disagree with this statement, but I agree with the statement this statement agrees with.</p>
<p>.9999… = 9/10 + 9/100 + 9/1000 + …
= (9/10)/(1-1/10)
= (9/10) / (9/10) = 1</p>

Q: How many mathematicians does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
A: 0.999999…</p>
<p>This is madness.</p>
<p>This thread needs to be removed right away.</p>

<p>splenetic, I saw someone use the proof to attempt to show that 1/3 does not equal .333…</p>
<p>1/81 = .012345679012345679…</p>
<p>As long as it helps my GPA, then yes.</p>
<p>x^2 = x+x+…+x (x x’s)</p>
<p>take derivative of both sides</p>
<p>2x = 1+1+…+1 (x 1’s)
2x = x
2 = 1</p>
<p>I agree with it ^.^</p>
<p>.999… equals 1. It’s just true. No matter what my engineer-father says.</p>
