of course, but this problem is solvable without any understanding of complex numbers, and 10*i^2 is a really clunky, multi-operation expression whereas -10 is just an integer.

simplifying one’s answers is standard practice and any grader who received the answer in the OP would be obligated to point out that while technically correct, they’re missing the basic fact that the answer is -10.

The Rube Goldberg comment is apt as the solution is absurdly complicated and overengineered for the task it performs.

😔 now you’ve gone too far.

birds are dinosaurs

then we agree that it’s incorrect to definitively say that a “palm tree” is not a tree.

rigidly defending the boundaries of a biological category that’s not a monophylitic group is an exercise in futility. or maybe in linguistics, because if it’s not monophyletic it’s not “real” in an evolutionary sense and the question is in the cultural realm and somewhat subjective. It’s like the discussions about whether a certain food is a fruit/vegetable/etc.

lol

getting into plants was like this for me but only in natural areas because the vast majority of human placed plants in my area are non-native. like just living here is not enough, they need to do settler-colonialism with the plants too.

Gotta say this is one ASD trait that I very much don’t have and is kind of hard to relate to.

The DOI number is nowhere in this post so 🤷
