Algebra is the easiest subject in mathematics and typically the only one you're usually required to advance up to if your degree in college doesn't require it.

2017-03-11 07:26:14 UTC  

The problem most people have is they can't wrap their minds around the words and letters and require a visual aid to help them conceptualize it and most teachers don't really do that.

2017-03-11 07:26:42 UTC  

Linear Algebra is nothing like high school Algebra

You can try this video series.

Matrices and shiiiiieet

2017-03-11 07:27:39 UTC  

I heard good things about this channel for helping struggling people learn these subjects.

2017-03-11 07:28:59 UTC  

I could probably be a decent mathematics teacher if I wanted to. I'd have to finish my degree though, I never did because of health and financial reasons.

Some kind of visualization always helps understand various subjects. It helps immensely in algebra, trig, and calculus.

2017-03-11 07:30:49 UTC  

Calculus often seems daunting and unapprochable if you just look at the raw equations. Visualizations make it much easier.

@ViperChan Make America Great Again

2017-03-11 07:34:08 UTC  

thanks for the vid

2017-03-11 07:35:47 UTC  

Try watching more from that channel, it should help.

2017-03-11 07:36:10 UTC  

Specific questions I can help with but I won't just give you the answer. It's a poor teacher that does the work for you.

2017-03-11 07:36:30 UTC  

but legit i am so tired i cant concentrate on doing actually maths as practice for my test (which is on next wednesday) so i think this will help me at least learn something

2017-03-11 07:37:17 UTC  

I'm waiting for PBS Digital Studios to create an entry level mathematics channel. They are the absolute best at making any subject, no matter how difficult to compreend, very easy to understand.

2017-03-11 07:38:01 UTC  

Unfortunately their only channel covering mathematics is their new one called Infinite Series. Which is directed towards people like me, experts who are already very knowledgable in most math subjects.

2017-03-11 07:38:40 UTC  

They have introductory science channels like Physics Girl, and a high end science channel called Space Time.

2017-03-11 07:39:25 UTC  

what kinds of jobs incorporate biology 🤔

2017-03-11 07:39:43 UTC  

That's something you should just google. 😄

2017-03-11 07:39:47 UTC  

it is by far my favourite thing to learn

2017-03-11 07:39:52 UTC  

yea i should

2017-03-11 07:39:53 UTC  

lol

2017-03-11 07:40:31 UTC  

Most biology courses are going to require learning more complciated math than others would. Like, say, a degree in some law field.

2017-03-11 07:40:57 UTC  

It's annoying though because most professional biologists don't do their own mathematical work. They outsource it to people like me.

2017-03-11 07:41:05 UTC  

That's the case in nearly every field of science.

2017-03-11 07:41:20 UTC  

ee

2017-03-11 07:41:20 UTC  

Most professional scientists have little to no understanding of basic mathematics.

2017-03-11 07:41:27 UTC  

They outsource it all.

2017-03-11 07:41:31 UTC  

guess i have to learn some maths so i wont be an asshole

2017-03-11 07:41:55 UTC  

That's some of the dirty little secrets they don't like advertising because it undermines the crediblity of some of their more controversial claims.

2017-03-11 07:42:14 UTC  

but really- bioloogical stuff is fuckn amazing and like awtching those cool documentaries as a kid really got me into it

2017-03-11 07:42:43 UTC  

i know a job regarding it is likely different but still

2017-03-11 07:42:47 UTC  

xd

2017-03-11 07:43:02 UTC  

You're going to be required to take some math courses for the degree but once you've got the degree you're likely to have little use of it again because it'll all be oursourced to a qualified mathematician

2017-03-11 07:43:26 UTC  

well at least i can teach my kids maths like my mother taught/still sometimes teaches me

2017-03-11 07:44:43 UTC  

In the larger context, algebra is more like.... well learning division really. To higher levels of mathematics it's just one of the very basic operations, one of the languae rules of mathematics, and not really an actual subject in itself.

2017-03-11 07:44:49 UTC  

I'm studying applied mathematics and computer science atm. 3rd degree. To the person requring some basic explanation of linear algebra check out Khan academy

2017-03-11 07:45:13 UTC  

Actually that's a pretty good degree combination. I was thinking of combining mine with a second but can't decide which.

2017-03-11 07:45:50 UTC  

Yeah the double major is tough but very exciting Emma.

2017-03-11 07:46:05 UTC  

It's not an issue for me now because I can't afford to go back. But I am hoping someday I can.

2017-03-11 07:46:47 UTC  

i have no idea since im still in highschool and not in my last year
