This is a question Unusual talents

B3tans! Can you hum with your tongue? (Your Ginger Fuhrer can and he once demonstrated this to a producer on Blockbusters on the hope of getting on TV) Maybe you can bend your thumb in a really horrid way that makes it look broken. (Your Ginger Fuhrer's other special talent) What can you do? Extra points if you fancy demonstrating this with the odd pic or youtube vid.

of very limited use and not a talent that would get you laid
When studying A Level maths at college a few years ago, I could tell if a quadratic equation could be factorised and if so give the solutions within pretty much the same time as it took to write down the equation in the first place.

Teacher: "ok, 6x2 + 7x - 3 = 0. So first.."
Me: "we factorise to give (2x+3)(3x-1)"
Teacher: "Eh?"
Me: "So x = -3/2 and x = 1/3"
Teacher: "Eh?"

I'm guessing you failed,
given you've got two different values for x, there.

yeah
there are two possible values of x for which the equation holds

I'm hoping
that argyleblanket's post was meant to be ironic

I remember spending countless hours
solving these types of equations. I am forever grateful that, over the decades, the knowledge has gradually dribbled out of my ears (along with copious amounts of wax).

It's a quadratic equation
so the plotted graph is a curve that bisects the y-axis twice, hence 2 possible values.

If you can do the same with cubics, that would be impressive.

i assume
You factored in the A level pass rate and took the rest of the term off down the pub!!

Result, was ???

grade A
96%, and that's the truth
