I doubt your average Math prof's wife will have piercings that can't be smoothed out.

So probably not Jane Pierce.

Didn't see any references on her having piercings, certainly not non-trivial ones.

If 2005 humour is still funny... the English cat 'one two three' and the French cat 'un deux trois' had a swimming race to decide after which country the Channel should be named. The un deux trois cat sank.

Ahh, un deux trois quartre cinq

All numbers are equal! Let $a$ and $b$ be any two numbers and define$$
c = a + b.
$$Multiply both sides by $a-b$:$$
(a - b)c = (a - b)(a+b).
$$Expand:$$
ac - bc = a^2 - b^2.
$$Rearrange:$$
b^2 - bc = a^2 - ac.
$$Add $ab$ to both sides:$$
ab + b^2 - bc = a^2 + ab - ac.
$$Factorise:$$
(a+b-c)b = (a+b-c)a.
$$Cancel:$$
b=a
$$QED.

Nope, because C = A + B, so
A+B-C = 0,
Let's see.

c = a + b.
$$Multiply both sides by $a-b$:$$
(a - b)c = (a - b)(a+b).
$$Expand:$$
ac - bc = a^2 - b^2.
$$Rearrange:$$
b^2 - bc = a^2 - ac.
$$Add $ab$ to both sides:$$
ab + b^2 - bc = a^2 + ab - ac.
$$Factorise:$$
(a+b-c)b = (a+b-c)a. = 0xB = 0xA
$$Cancel:$$
b=a
$$QED.

An old car chuggs up a hill of 1 mile for an average speed of 15 mph.
The car then travels downhill for 1 mile.
What must the downhill speed be, so that for the whole trip the average speed is 30 mph.

Ludicrous Speed
