Welcome, quilly!
This site has been around for about 5 years. It is a MATH forum where you can get any MATH questions you may have answered by real people. Anyone who happens to be signed on can answer (or attempt to answer), your Q's. The answers may have an explanation (usually...but not always).......and there are no guarantees they are correct....but they usually are.
Please try to keep your posts related to MATH if possible....if you have a follow up question about an answer you have seen posted, please post in to the original thread to avoid confusion and clutter on the forum site. Please ....DON'T post the same question multiple times. Sometimes looking at others Q's will find the answer for which you are looking. We are not here to do all of your homework, but rather here to assist you with understanding your homework so YOU can do it.
This is not a dating site, so please message someone from the Messaging Center if you need a slightly more private venue.
It is also not a forum for posting poems, jokes, songs, tirades or religious musings....try to keep it 'Math-y'
I have never used Yahoo Answers, so I do not know how it compares !
Have fun !
