Equals Jokes

So, you think a gallon of gasoline is expensive? Well! !!
Here are a few things that Autoweek brought to our attention to compare.
This is what it costs to buy a gallon of...
Diet Snapple 16 oz for $1. 29 equals $10. 32 per gallon
Lipton Ice Tea 16 oz for $1. 19 equals $ 9. 52 per gallon
Gatorade 20 oz for $1. 59 equals $ 10. 17 per gallon
Ocean Spray 16 oz for $1. 25 equals $ 10. 00 per gallon
Quart of milk 16 oz for $1. 59 equals $ 6. 32 per gallon
STP Brake Fluid 12 oz for $3. 15 equals $ 33. 60 per gallon
Vick's Nyquil 6 oz for $8. 35 equals $ 178. 13 per gallon
Pepto Bismol 4 oz for $3. 85 equals $123. 20 per gallon
Whiteout 7oz for $1. 39 equals $254. 17 per gallon
Scope 1. 5oz for $0. 99 equals $ 84. 84 per gallon
And this is the REAL KICKER......
Evian water 9 oz for $1. 49 equals $ 21. 19 per gallon... $21. 19 FOR WATER! !
You get the idea?? So next time you're at the gas pump, be glad your vehicle more...

Why you should learn to use algebra. . . After applying some simple algebra to some trite phrases and cliches a new understanding can bereached of the secret to wealth and success. Here it goes. Knowledge is Power Time is Money and as every engineer knows, Power is Work over Time. So, substituting algebraic equations for these time worn bits of wisdom, we get: K = P (1) T = M (2) P = W/T (3)Now, do a few simple substitutions: Put W/T in for P in equation (1), which yields: K = W/T (4)Put M in for T into equation (4), which yields: K = W/M (5). Now we've got something. Expanding back into English, we get: Knowledge equals Work over Money. What this MEANS is that: 1. The More You Know, the More Work You Do, and 2. The More You Know, the Less Money You Make. Solving for Money, we get: M = W/K (6) Money equals Work Over Knowledge. From equation (6) we see that Money approaches infinity as Knowledge approaches 0, regardlessof the Work done. What THIS MEANS is: The More you Make, the Less more...

First, these basics

Knowledge is Power
Time is Money and as every engineer knows,
Power is Work over Time.

So, substituting algebraic equations for these time worn bits of wisdom, we get:

K = P (1)
T = M (2)
P = W/T (3)

Now, do a few simple substitutions:

Put W/T in for P in equation (1), which yields:
K = W/T (4)

Put M in for T into equation (4), which yields:

K = W/M (5).

Now we've got something. Expanding back into English, we get:

Knowledge equals Work over Money.

What this MEANS is that:

1. The More You Know, the More Work You Do, and
2. The More You Know, the Less Money You Make.

Solving for Money, we get:

M = W/K (6)
Money equals Work Over Knowledge.

From equation (6) we see that Money approaches infinity as Knowledge approaches 0, regardless of the Work done.

What THIS MEANS more...

This poem was written by Jon Saxton (an author of math textbooks).
((12 + 144 + 20 + (3 * 4^(1/2))) / 7) + (5 * 11) = 9^2 + 0
Or for those who have trouble with the poem:
A Dozen, a Gross and a Score,
plus three times the square root of four,
divided by seven,
plus five times eleven,
equals nine squared and not a bit more.
'Tis a favorite project of mine
A new value of pi to assign.
I would fix it at 3
For it's simpler, you see,
Than 3 point 1 4 1 5 9.
("The Lure of the Limerick" by W.S. Baring-Gould, p.5. Attributed to Harvey L. Carter).
If inside a circle a line
Hits the center and goes spine to spine
And the line's length is "d"
the circumference will be
d times 3.14159
If (1+x) (real close to 1)
Is raised to the power of 1
Over x, you will find
Here's the value defined:

Here's a limerick - looks better on paper.
