>>16523683It's a consequence of both operators having two inputs, which is also the quantity for all inputs.

>>16523683No, its not a coincidence that two twos is the same thing as two twos, its the law of identity, I don't know how "deep" you believe that law of logic to be, but its one of (if not) the most fundamental rules of logic there is.
>>16523683>>16523865Same for 4 cubic roots of 4. Notice a pattern yet?
>>16523865this is nuts
>>16524295>>16523865>>16524311Yes the numbers for which "multiplying it X times is equal to adding it X times" are the (X-1)th roots of X and 2 is the only number where you get a (2-1)=1th root and therefore an integer. Except 1 because 1 times nothing = 1 plus nothing but Big Multiplication won't tell you that
>>16523683you're almost there...
[math]\forall n\in\mathbb{Z}^+, 2 \uparrow^{(n)}2 = 2+2[\math]
>>16524378[math]\forall n\in\mathbb{Z}^+, 2 \uparrow^{(n)}2 = 2+2[/math]
>>16523848Because x^2 - 2x is a parabola, and the two operations are equal only where the parabola intercepts the x-axis

that's actually insane

You forgot exponentiation and tetration.The pattern is literally n/a,4,4,4,4,16 because fuck you.

wait until you find out about 142857really i'm surprised there isn't at least one religious cult based around it
>>16523683Is this a science board still, or am I on the wrong board? Aren't we supposed to ask intelligent questions?

Aha, I've already got an answer for that!X+X=X*X 2X = X^2X=2X+X+X=X*X*X3X = X^3X=3^(1/2)Or the square root of 3.X+X+X+X=X*X*X*X4X = X^4X=4^(1/3)Or the cube root of 4.X+X+X+X+X=X*X*X*X*X5X = X^5X=5^(1/4)Seeing the pattern?N*X=X^NX=N^(1/(N-1))
>>165364003*5 = 5 + 5 + 55*3 = 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3since 2*y = y + y for examplei didn't know, that Saturn has a hexagonal polar patch

>>16536367>>16536524>>16536731then what does 1.7x3.6 mean? you can't sum a number 3.6 times. this is what I mean when I say multiplication has a deeper meaning than that
>>165371421.7×3.6 = 3×3×17÷5÷5Thus division is also involved.I believe, that trigonometry is beneath, or behind, number theory.That trigonometry is the deeper, or underlying, thing.
>>16537142>then what does 1.7x3.6 mean?I do not get it? Is the decimal point bothering you?just move the decimal point over then restore it.1.7 x 10 = 17 3.6 x 10 = 36so our result will be 10 x 10 = 100 times bigger (move decimal 2 places to get correct answer)17 x 36 = 612612 / 100 = 6.12 (moved decimal 2 places to get correct answer)therefore1.7 x 3.6 = 6.12

>>16538052>>3/3=0>lmao this is the level of the science boardYet, you will happily say that 0!=1 simply because it's convention. Not because it makes any logical sense. There's definitely a trend going on there that you dismissed away with one typo.>>16538032Here is an expansion of your list -0-0 =00+0 =00/0 =0 (undefined)0x0 =00^0 =0 (undefined), 1 often given as result0! =0 (undefined), 1 often given as result0root0 =0 (undefined), other results are given7 same answers1-1 =01+1 =21/1 =11x1 =11^1 =11! =11root1 =15 same answers2-2 =02+2 =42/2 =12x2 =42^2 =42! =22root2 =1.414.. etc3 same answers3-3 =03+3 =63/3 =13x3 =93^3 =273! =63root3 =1.442.. etc2 same answers4-4 =04+4 =84/4 =14x4 =164^4 =2564! =244root4 =1.414.. etc0 same answersSo yeah, self-operations with the same answers decrease as the size of the natural number increases from 0 to 3.From 4 and above no natural numbers display that property.
