I was looking into state school math exam problems and I could do fuck all except first few easy questions. Since school trough math, literature etc. was teaching us how to think logically, systematically, how to articulate and present your thoughts and so on to become well rounded adults i'm thinking that i'm fallen behind. I'm no school dropout but i finished at the bottom of the barrel and And life has proven that I'm fucked up grown up.Should I buy 11,12 grades math, literature, mb some others, and try to restudy it all to become a better version of myself? Is this a legit way? Is there a better one?

All this world with celebrities, businesses, media trying to sell us smth to try to solve our problems, maybe i just need to study some math and read some books?

P.s. Post what novels you had in your school curicullum preferably by the most important/influential.

One of the questions. I hope i didn't mixed the names while writing.

Two sisters - Lolly and Dolly - was catching pokemons for some time. Lolly everyday caught x pokemons and dolly 3 pokemons more. Lolly was catching pokemons 1 day more than Dolly. Dolly caught 484 pokemons total and Dolly 437. Find x.

Lolly=x*(t+1)
Dolly=(x+3)*t

1) 437=(1+t)*x
2) 484=t*(3+x)
Rearrange 2):
t=484/(3+x)
Plug that into 1):
437=(1+484/(3+x))*x
Rearrange:
437/x=1+484/(3+x)
437/x-1=484/(3+x)
437*(3+x)/x-(3+x)=484
437*3/x+437-3-x=484
1311/x-x=50
-1311+50*x+x^2=0
Use quadratic formula:
x=-50/2±sqrt((50/2)^2+1311)
x=-25±sqrt(625+1311)
x=-25±sqrt(1936)
x=-25±44
x=19 or x=-69
Catching a negative number of pokemons makes no sense so the solution is 19.

Btw I typed that on my smart phone so you better be thankful, faggot.
