  • Here is math for kids https://www.mathsisfun.com/definitions/distributive-law.html

    Distributive law means you are allowed to distribute, not that you must distribute. I'm so sorry for the amount of effort you're futilely putting into this lmao. Nowhere in all your sources and screenshots is it stated you must distribute, and thus the entire argument breaks down.

  • Nowhere in your "proof" screenshots does it say anything about distribution being part of the brackets step. Distribution is a method that can help solve equations, but it isn't required. If you have 2(3+5) you're free to solve it as 23+25 or as 28, whichever is easiest. That is because juxtaposition means multiplication and nothing else.

    Math textbooks almost universally will either use clear brackets or simply write divisions in 2 lines, which avoids the confusion altogether.

  • Yes, the math textbook says exactly what I said, that it's a multiplication. There's no mention of it being a separate operation taking precedence. The parentheses in your example are added for clarity.

    Whether you give priority to juxtapositions is an open debate with the consensus being to just use parenthesis around when writing in a single line to avoid confusion. However, there is no distribution step taking precedence, as you mentioned, and the whole debate centers around whether the writer was too lazy to add parenthesis.

  • But factorised terms are multiplications, so they're still following the same rules: a(b+c) = a*(b+c)

    Example: 2(3+5)=16, and also 23+25=16

  • Wouldn't we just assume function expressions are always "in parenthesis"? Then it's just a substitution and no rules were changed.

  • No point sending the code to your phone when it's displayed right there. The idea of doing this is making sure nobody has stolen your password, because they still need access to your phone before they can access your account.

  • The user probably wasn't running as admin (elevated) while deleting the file, so as far as the system knows, he may not be allowed to know which process is accessing the file.

  • If you can't see which program is using the file, that means it's a different user than yours. Your computer doesn't know more than the users it's been set up to have.

  • Something about this seems odd. There's no way they could know what her last thought was!
