* Start with the identity
- 20 = - 20
* Express both sides in slightly different, yet equivalent ways
25 - 45 = 16 - 36
* Factor both sides
5^2 - 5 \times 9 = 4^2 - 4 \times 9
* Add the same thing to both sides
5^2 - 5 \times 9 + \frac{81}{4} = 4^2 - 4 \times 9 + \frac{81}{4}
* Now factor both sides again
\left(5 - \frac{9}{2}\right)^2 = \left(4 - \frac{9}{2}\right)^2
* Take the square root of both sides
5 - \frac{9}{2} = 4 - \frac{9}{2}
* Cancel the common term
5 = 4
*Proof 2+2=5

Answer #1: Sure, just give me Fortran.
Answer #2: No, because 2+2 = 3; that is, it follows the pattern: 1+1=2, 2+2=3, 3+3=4, 4+4=5, etc.
Answer #3: Sure -- I'll give you two $2 bills in exchange for your $5 bill.

yes of corse,2+2=5 can be proved.let the father be equal to 1 and mother be equal to 1 but they togetther can give a baby.so here 2 has been converted into 3.and the parents of either of the parents together makes2.so 2+2=5.if there are more family members we can form new new equations like 3+3=7.

Take a philosophy class and you will find out that 2+2 can equal whatever you want it to.

Let 2=2.5
2 + 2 = 2.5 + 2.5
2.5 + 2.5 = 5

no, cause 2+2=4. you know... for example, if you have two apples, and two oranges, and you add them together... one, two, three, four.

sure, since you can't spell "no one" or "that"...I guess you can consider that 2+2= anything.
