True vs Valid
Another very nuanced, but majorly important blog topic that will take a series to properly outline is the difference between True & Valid (or Facts). I've had some eye-opening realizations watching human behavior as a result of operating social media accounts with sizable followings. Seeing in real-time somebody incorrectly conclude something, and then utilize that faulty conclusion as the foundation for a series of responses. In mathematics, while outlining valid manipulations to equations to take steps towards potential solutions, entry-level algebra will teach you that you can divide a value to one entire side of an equation so long as you repeat that exact process to the other side. So, for example, if you are attempting to solve 2x = 4x you might decide to divide both sides by 'x' and resulting in something that doesn't make any sense 2=4 or a false statement. Your parameters you were given were valid, as were apparently your steps. Up until this moment this p...
