$100.00 reward for Dwain Piggybottom if he can
make me understand what the "1x3" means in his riddle
z+1x3 = ?

DWH says: This is the simplist equation imagineable that anyone purporting to
be any sort of cosmologist would know. I first saw it used by a member of the
Cerro Tololo high z reasearch team in 1998. Take the z number, which is the
light emitting galaxies red shift as a percentage of the speed of light, say
1.5 which is 150% light speed, and add 1 which equals 2.5 and multiply by 3,
which is the rise time of the light curve of a Ia type supernova in a non red
shifted environment in weeks, which totals 7.5 weeks or 55.5 days. They work
the equation backwards by observing the rise time first which gives them the z
number which is confirmed by the red shift of the spectrum EXACTLY, which
proves conclusively the galaxy is indeed moving away at precisely 150% of the
speed of
light. Stick your $100 up your ass! Regards, DWH

So you write
(z plus one) times 3
as
z+1x3
?
