the first time i solved this was literally in preschool
it's $1.50 and OP can't count for shit.
>>699370915

>>699372617
damn straight
also game of war, not even sure anyone plays the game but the ads won't die
>>699372047
1+1/2x equals 1.5x
so game costs 1.50
>>699372477
what does the pic have to do with anything
Assuming it's written to be on sale, and costs a dollar plus half the GAME'S price, you get a formula of (x/2)+1, where x is the usual price of the game.

>>699373228
Agreed
>>699370915
There is not even an indication of it's price.. It can't be solved and If you think you've solved it you should probably kys
So it's impossible to answer.
Even if the game costs $0 it'll still be $1 because of the wording. Or there's some bullshit irrational number or something. Regardless. Impossible to solve in the real world. You're welcome, autards.

>Game costs $1 plus half its price
We need to find the price. This means:
price=1+(half of price)
Still with me? good.
Now with the magic of math, we subtract half of price from both sides:
price - half of price = 1
>inb4 why u do dat
Algebra. Pay attention in school, fags.
The full price minus half the price is... yep, half price.
half of price = 1.
this means that 2 halves is... WHAT
$2?
WOAH
price = 2
>but y isnt it 1.50? 1+ half of 1 is 1.50
It didn't say >Game costs 1 plus half of 1
It said >Game costs 1 plus half of COST
>as in FINAL PRICE
>not 1 + half of the number 1
>>699370915
If the game costed $1.50 half of its price would be $0.75 and adding that too a dollar amounts to....
If the game costed $1 half of its price would be $0.50 and adding $1 would be....
If the games costs $2 half of it would be $1 and then adding another $1 would cost... OOHHHHHHHH
I was just typing out how much of a tard OP is, and then realized he's right and felt like an enormous tard for not realizing that right away.
Good on you OP, y'got me.
It is a divergent series, so its price is infinite
1+.50+.75+.1.125+1.6875+...
It would be two dollars if it went up by half of the last increase each time, not the going up by half of the total sum

Then it's not a riddle. It's just an incorrect statement.
theres only one variable it should just be 1+x/2 where x=1
>>699376447
x doesnt equal 1
x equals the answer
1+x/2=x
>>699376654
x = 1 + (1/2y)
Math is easy.
1 + 1/2x = x
Multiply by 2
2 + x = 2x
Subtract x from both sides
2 + x - x = 2x - x
2 = x

>>699376966
checked
$1.50 and $2.00
Not enough information so both are correct. 1/2 total price or 1/2 original price? The world may never know.
>>699377114
finally but it has to be 1.5 since the original price is $1 then again you are correct on it could be both...
Holy shit, you're all fucking idiots
It's one dollar
It says it on the first fucking line. "A Game costs 1$"
There is no math involved you fucking niggers.
What kind of shit game would cost only $1.50 anyways?
People who are saying the answer is $2 because they are trying to create an equation are missing something important.
The price of something is the same thing as "how much it costs." Something cannot "cost" something that is higher than its "price" because those two things are the same.
X cannot be equal to X + X*0.5.
The problem is unsolvable, because anything you do to the "price" also changes the "cost."
The item costs a dollar, plus half of its price. The price, as stated, is a dollar, so that plus half is $1.50. However, that means that the item's price is $1.50, and the cost is equal to that plus half of itself, so now the price is $2.25. Oh, but now the cost is that plus half of itself...
It's a recursion, and this is a trick question, and I guaran-fucking-tee that someone is going to argue with this and call me stupid, because the internet is full of fucking retards who literally believe that this question has an answer and that this is something worth arguing over in the first place.
>>699377294
a game during steam summer sales console peasant
Depends on what the "its" is referring to, if it's referring to the $1 then it's $1.5, if it's referring to the game then it's $2.
The question is meant to be confusing.
The answere is 66.6 (repeating) cents you fucking retards
Reminds me of those jokes where you over-complicate things to make someone forget a piece of key information in order to make them look stupid.
IE:
You are driving a bus. At the first stop, four people board the bus. At the second stop, two more people board. At the third stop, one person boards and three people get off. At the fourth stop, three more people board and four people get off. At the fifth stop, two people board and nobody gets off. What is the bus driver's name?
1+x/2=x
(1+x/2)2=x(2)
2+x=2x
2=2x-x

>>699377356
Price is not the same as cost. Cost is the dollar value the company paid to produce the game per unit, and price is the offer that the company gives to consumers per unit. They are completely different.
>>699370915
58bucks because of dlc
>>699378159
That isn't actually true, anon. Cost doesn't necessarily mean "cost to produce." Cost and price are synonyms.
In order for your definition to be correct, the question would have to specify that cost means cost to produce. It would also mean the company is retarded as balls because they would be selling something for less than they spent on making it.
>>699377356
>can't sell something for more than its cost
I buy a candy bars in bulk at 1 dollar per bar. I resale them at 1.50, therefore 1 + half the price. you're a faggot, this is basic marketing.
>>699377068
Half of the price? Well if the price is $1.50 then half is $0.75, so that plus a dollar is $1.75. 1.75 =/= 1.50
Dumbass
>>699378456
If you're selling them for $1.50, the candy bars cost $1.50 now. It is you who are the faggot, as you lack a basic understanding of the English language.
>>699378428
>It would also mean the company is retarded as balls because they would be selling something for less than they spent on making it
You are literally retarded
>>699378662
no, just because you want it to be the same doesn't mean that's the truth. they aren't in economic standards. let's say they were in your faggot world, that still makes you wrong because cost would be relevant. meaning, I set the new price at 1 + price/2, price before the adjustment would be 1, only changing after ri reset it. thus relative, so you're still a faggot

Anyone who responds to these threads is just falling for a simple trap.

>>699370915
Trick question. We don't know the price. Since we do not know if the game is being bought new of second hand/digital. If it's a physical copy, we need to determine the tax. Which is also even more impossible because tax has a different rates depending on your geographical region. This question isn't very specific.

exactly its not always true, just like how price always equals cost fagboy
ITT: People who think the answer is $2, and retards.
1 + 0.5x = x
0.5x = 1
x = 2
fucking morons
>>699370915
its $1 as its costs $1, its play on words. for it to be anything else you would have to replace costs with price
>>699387875
Dude fuck off we're not going by "national averages" here we're going by what numbers we're given in the problem asshole.
How can a game cost itself and half itself that's like saying i can shove a pineapple plus half of the same pineapple up my ass and i know from experience that that dont make no goddamned sense
1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1= 118 you fucking morons
The correc answer is $1.33 repeating niggers cos the final price is constantly changing
>>699370915
initial cost: $1.50
total cost: 1+1.5=2.5
$2.50
>>699375090
Approaches 2...forever
>>699387857
Walk me through you're thinking.
its $1 as it states thats how much it costs and not what would the price be if you add half its price to = the cost
>>699374384
Game = 1 dollar = Price
1 + 1/2 = 1.50. Go back to elementary school and learn Addition and Division
>>699388323
>you're
I fucking hate you people.
>>699370915
1 + cost/2 = cost
cost = 2
>>699388382
it says thats its cost not its price retard
>>699388323
e=the game price
e/2+1=i
i-e/2=1
e/2=1
i comes before e =1
$0 Cause who in their right mind would ever fucking price anything like that
Game cost somewhere between 1 and 2 dollars
Game costs 2 dollars because what kind of jew carries change

Only if cost = price. There's no reason to believe they are equal.
>>699388474
Cost and price are the same fucking thing you faggots are over thinking this shit and its making my faith in humanity slip away
>jk that was gone when gender neutral bathe Ron's became a thing

they were way to messy to explain a simple thing anon
So x=(x*.5)+1? If so, the answer is false.
>>699388931
Price and cost both have the same meaning: "the amount of money you pay for something or that something costs." But the main difference is one of perspective. Price is generally used to refer to the amount of money that a seller is asking for something, and cost generally refers to the amount of money that buyer will spend rather than the price that a seller is asking for. In many Western cultures, the amount of money that a seller wants for something is also the amount of money that a buyer will spend on it, which means that you will see price and cost used the same way in many instances. But there are some instances where those numbers are not the same. Let's look at this sentence:
"The price of the part was too high, but the mechanic gave me a deal, so the repair costs weren't too bad."
Here, price is clearly used for the amount of money that the mechanic wants to sell the part for, and cost is used for the amount of money that the buyer spent on the repair.
Cost can also be used of prices in general, especially in idiomatic phrases like "the cost of living." You will occasionally see price used this way ("The price of housing has gone up this quarter"), but cost is more common ("The cost of housing has gone up this quarter").

Math doesn't matter. It's $60+$50 season pass+$10 pre order bonus
Never actually specifies what cost we are looking for. Should say how much does the game cost. "it" could refer to anything

it's ok guys i do math for a living the answer is 1.50. $1.00 + ¢.50=$1.50
>>699373975
shut up nigger
everyone in this thread is so god damn stupid, arguing over the definition of the word cost and price.
Tards: (price is x)
x = (1/2)x + 1
x - (1/2)x = 1
2 (x) - 2 (1/2)x = 2 (1)
2x - 1x = 2
x = 2
1+.5x=x
1=x-.5x
1=.5x
2=x
1+.5 (2)=2
1+1=2
Price is 2
1.75
>>699371440
PEMDAS YOU IDIOT....also X minus X does not equal X. It equals 0

????????????????
Cost = 1
Half of 1 = .50
= 1.50 fucking idiots

What do I win?
>>699392139
To anyone who doesnt get it, let me simplify.
1 + .50 (1 plus half of one)
>1.50
1 + .75 (1 plus half of 1.50)
>1.75
Where are you guys getting two from????
>>699370915
C = 1 + .5C

Infinity, because as soon as its $2, then its $2 plus half its price. duh
>>699370915
1+.5x=× (multiply by 2)
2+×=2x
2=x
Game is $2. If you can't do this you failed grade 8 math.
>>699392470
Yep, but people will assume their grammatical mastery of the English language can dictate a different answer for a poorly-written question.
It is not our fault the idiot who wrote it did not include a comma.
The answer is $1.50.

Yay, semantics! Autism: The Thread.
>>699392887
C≠P
Price=x
Cost=y
y=(x/2)+1
>>699393149
and you failed grade 1 reading. cost≠price
1 + .5*x = x
1 = x - .5*x
1 = .5*x
2 = x
listen you anons
work backwards
what plus itself equals 2?
This game costs less than 2 dollars because if it costed more, then it would be unprofitable to sell it.
How much is the retailer marking it up? Is it on sale? Will your mother die if you don't reply to this post? Yes.
>>699393226
dumbass^
>>699389332

>1.50
Lets plug that into the question to check.
Game costs 1+.75 = 1.75
1.75 =/= 1.50
Ergo this answer is wrong.
>>699393595
dont forget the season pass, with unincluded dlc that requires dubs or the old bitch dies anyway
Its 3 dollars
Sumthing=1+haf of sumthing
Meaning 1 is haf
Haf+Haf=Sumthing
1+1=3
The game costs three dollars.
You all stupid.

People say new /b/ sucks but this shit has been going on since day one. Also, if you can't see how the answer is $2 and also $1.50, you may have autism.

Something that is figuratively literal is literally figurative.
its not a math question guys
>1 dollar plus half it's price
This means no matter how hard you faggots try to math this youre always going to add half of it to it.
its probably infinity
