I haven’t had to solve inequalities in years

no it isn’t

oh

It goes up to 12 years (senior)

i see

You learn about factoring or parabolas?

i learned mostly about factoring in algebra 2

but im learning on my own because we are learning the very basics of algebra in 8th grade

oh I see

like f(x)=-5+2x^2

I was wondering how would you be learning it at 8th grade when I learned it last year

oh

yea

Algebra II is a fun class

Oh you are doing parabolas

I really liked dividing polynomials\

that was fun

Oh it’s good you’re using function notation

I hated factoring tho

Function notation is f(x) right?

yes

Really dividing polynomials is fun?

factoring was boring and long

ya

I never liked dividing polynomials with long division, I always just used synthetic division

if it’s ax^2 + bx + c than factoring is pretty easy

Made more sense to me

whats synthetic division

What’s synthetic division?

i know long and short division

and I totally forgot long division

same i really didnt use it for dividing normal numbers

i used short division

It’s long division but easier imo

I use a calculator for number division

I know prime factorization. Idk if it’s related to that

we arent allowed to use calculators unless they allow u to which kinda sucks

That’s to make sure you understand the concepts of what you’re supposed to do

Dude calculators is such a lifesaver

but who will know if its remote learning hehehe
