A FRIEND OF MINE knows that selling 80 franks costs a total of $73 and selling 100 franks costs $80. Assume that the total cost (c) of the franks is lineraly related to the number of (f) franks sold.
MY FRIEND'S question is this: what is the cost of selling 90 franks?
:help:

Hey Earl, we got any franks back there? I'm fucking starving.

From a linear algebra perspective, those two systems of equations are linearly independent. That is, there is no constant cost per hot dog.

i dont eat hotdogs so this question is really hard...maybe if you reword it as "things in a similar shape to hotdogs" rather than "hotsdogs" maybe i could come up with an accurate answer

... and in the oracle - we're mostly just on our way to a penis joke.
success! My experiement's outcome matches it's prediction. Though the guy who first answered correctly is here...
something tells me this wasn't double blind.
Oh well - I have to go figure out when two trains are going to collide.
Cya!

though later in time, the correct answer was in the 2nd post of this thread.

if you were a hotdog, would you eat yourself?

sailor - you know some fucking math.
I thought that was just some bullshit- what's that a shortcut?
