I don't want to add to your burdens, however.

So let's say you start with 1.

What do you know about x?

You might have other liabilities.

This is going to be, right here, non negative.

E eh? I somehow seem to feel a very threatening aura...

You lose.

You have lost.

You have lost!

You lose!!!

All its buildings and its employees and its brand.

Because essentially, or you can view it this way, if you subtract liabilities from both sides, assets minus

Perhaps with a little less delicacy... my forces will not be defeated by a mere woman.

Aren't you traumatized, sir?

GAME OVER. You lost!

Thank you.

Now, when you resign, you put your hand gently on the piece stand, or just above the piece stand, and say, makemashita , or arimasen , and make a bow. makemashita means I've lost . arimasen means I have no more move to make .

Let's see, if I have plus 1.085 to the 12th, you'll owe me 2.66.

Sorry, you have lost the game.

Sorry, you lost the game.

You're not in control.

We've now excluded all of the negative numbers.

We just want to get rid of this squared sign.

Total assets.

And we'll assume right now that your debt is your main liability.

And A says, C owes me 1 billion, and that's all fine.

So right now, the short seller, he has assets and

We are all responsible.

This is implicitly saying that the absolute value of y has to be negative.

And then, the right hand side becomes what?

And now all of a sudden when things go bad, they don't bear the risk.

I think we've come to an agreement.

You shouldn't have lost your temper. We lost the game.

You must bear the unbearable.

In general, you have your integers that contain both the positive and the negative numbers and 0, depending on whether you consider that positive or negative, or neither.

The money's got to come from the nation of Japan.

This is 120,000 in equity, market value of equity, he has another 105,000 in liabilites.

The responsibility is mine. I must have it, sir. I shall not give way.

(Laughter)

I owe the bank 750,000.

If I had a negative divided by a positive, that's also going to be a negative.

Well they're saying that, OK Bank A, that's nice, you say that your assets minus your liabilities are worth 3 billion, but I don't think that's true.

You take the square root of both sides, and, of course, you want to take the positive and the negative square root, because 4x plus 1 could be the positive square root of 8, or it could be the negative square root of 8.

So, he starts off with a negative balance, so a negative balance means that he's overdrawn his checking account.
