<p>i might be thinking too much, but this is what prudent means:</p>

<p>Careful in regard to one’s own interests, or exercising good judgment</p>

<p>If the admirer sent a mustache box, then the admirer would be prudent in that the admirer would be exercising good judgment based on what the admirer knows. I do remember the question sounded like it was asking for the word describing the admirers actions in that situation. And in that situation, the admirer thought that the person was a man, so the admirer did exercise good judgment. Paradoxical, but that’s what I thought. And this wasn’t one of the first questions, it was the last one so you can never be too sure.</p>

322

<p>Erroneous IMO</p>

323

<p>K>0. k, square root(K), square root(K) +1</p>

<p>would not work, because try 2, you have
2, 1.41, 2.41 which does not work</p>

324

<p>I still think erroneous, prudent seems to make you think too hard to make it fit.</p>

325

<p>wait are you sure it was just root k?
I thought it was root (k^2 + 1)</p>

326

<p>In actuality it only works for k= 0,1, and 2</p>

327

<p>I think the problem was K< square root of (K2+1)< square root of (K2) +1</p>

<p>yeah okay those K2 are squared, i just can’t figure out how to type it out.</p>

328

<p>yeah I agree, but the last one, was it sqrt(k^2) +1 or sqrt (k) +1?</p>

329

<p>Also, is everyone sure on putting “placid” for that girl</p>

<p>Cuz I thought “diffident” sounded good cuz she didn’t make a big deal of seeming catastrophes</p>

330

<p>It was definitely square root (K2) +1</p>

331

<p>isn’t diffident timid
I think indifferent would work, so I made sure not to mix up the two</p>

332

<p>Placid means not easily effected</p>

333

<p>Ok I get it now. I thought the assertion referred to the one made by the author, not Nash. But no one ever said things that aren’t natural are good, right? Nash is just supporting his/her own assertion that natural things can be bad with a counterexample that a good thing might not be natural.</p>

334

<p>For the dualism one, is one of the answers “sympathy?”</p>

335

<p>Yeah I think the first author was sympathetic towards Descartes</p>

336

<p>yeah that was for the “very human” thing</p>

337

<p>And there was the one with the “curiosities” and “wonders” about the mind “not making it more correct” or something.. I don’t remember what I put..</p>

338

<p>For that “k” question, If I remember correctly the order didn’t change, it was exactly as they had it listed in the question.</p>

339

<p>maybe it was this, mathnerd:</p>

<p>“the awe and wonder about the mind is not dependent on Descartes’ view of dualism”</p>

<p>That is, you can still be amazed by the mind even if you dont believe in dualism but believe in modern biology.</p>

340

<p>For Math, what did you guys get on that question that said:</p>

<p>How many 2 digit numbers in the tens digit are greater than the units digit? or something like that</p>

<p>I remember I was doing the question and I finished it and thought I got the right answer but it wasn’t there so I skipped it but I forgot to go back.</p>
