Listen up, chucklehead! This joke is funny because Romans used the letter "X" to mean the number 10. So, when the joke says "X is always ten," it's playing on the Roman numeral system. It's funny because algebra involves solving for unknown variables, but for Romans, "X" was never a variable. You probably still use the number 10, right? You are so awesome!
