But you're missing the whole point of the album cover.<br /><br />They weren't trying to say "Mariah Carey" squared. They wanted to say (in a cute way) "Mariah Carey twice." What the graphics wound up saying was "Mariah Carey Carey".<br /><br />If you want to say that (MC)^2 also means Mariah Carey twice, that's fine, but someone else will argue that (MC)^2 is Maria Maria 2(MariahCarey) CareyCarey. All of this is totally unimportant because you don't square names.Minnesotastanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01382888179579245181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-66377714019234317542009-10-20T17:53:05.221-05:002009-10-20T17:53:05.221-05:00WRONG. You wrote it should be E=2(MC) but in fact ...WRONG. You wrote it should be E=2(MC) but in fact it should be E=(MC)² or E=(MC)^2. It's a power not a multiplier.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-83490325604903785662008-12-31T13:44:00.000-06:002008-12-31T13:44:00.000-06:00not time 2: to the second power, = maria carey x m...not time 2: to the second power, = maria carey x maria careyNeohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16739762694942621947noreply@blogger.com
