Reality Check by Dave Whamond for September 20, 2021

Yeah, it’s only the 11th night.

Don’t take it so literally.

Without knowing the final answer; you could make “b” anything you want. They should have included the answer at the end.

@TStyle78 is correct. In order to solve for “b”, you need a real number on the other side of the equation. So far, “b” is the only variable, so there is really nothing else to solve for.

The teacher don’t knows maths. You doesn’t gives an incomplete equation to solves. Maybe this is the new math they teaches at some places these days.

69 – 3b

What is the square root of 4b^2?

IF the equation =0 then B= 23 BUT we need a value after the = sign. I assumed 0

…years later he became the most famous writer of all time! Still hated math!

Is ‘b’ 25 or 624?

“Will! Just ‘Simplify the equation’.” [Shakespeare seemed to find ways to do just the opposite – to make things sound more complex (or at least harder for some of us to understand).]

The teacher doth protest too much.

Considering the answer is 69-3b, even his attempt to cover his bets is wrong.

I figure your down 3B but with up 69 in change.

2b or…wait a farthington minute!  2Ralphs?!!  Is that another Ralph under the teacher’s desk?

Wonder if Shakesphere there is gonna get his a## kicked because of that outfit.

Ok, I’ll say it … 2b or naught 2b (is that a question?) ….

Eventually, “not 2b” is our correct result.

42

We need to call in Hobbes, who reminded Calvin that some equations use invisible numbers.

no respond, but I still am still slightly amused.

=−6b+105

Great, now solve this!
