Has anyone else spotted a pattern that is driving me mad? Most people ask nicely, but for some reason all maths students just put the question - it comes over very arrogant,
Example tonight:-
"simplify 2(a - 4b) + 4(6b - 3a)?"
And that was it - no "please", or "Can you help with my homework". It happens every night.
If we all stopped answerring them, perhaps they would try more politely.
Yes, I know I am a Victor Meldrew, but I do like to give and receive respect.

I know right!!! It seems like they're just saying "do my homework!!!". I never answer those unless there's a please or an "I need help with this".

I agree. If I see one of those, I`ll just explain how to achieve the simplification, instead of giving the answer. After all, just getting answers teaches nothing.
