Ugh heard that linear algebra is tuff
And Calc 2 kicks my ass occasionally as well
Is this high school or college?
high school
I'm in college
at least i have time to fix it right
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.
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.
Linear Algebra is nothing like high school Algebra
You can try this video series.

Doesn't matter that it doesn't embed in here. You should open it in a browser.
Matrices and shiiiiieet
I heard good things about this channel for helping struggling people learn these subjects.
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.
Calculus often seems daunting and unapprochable if you just look at the raw equations. Visualizations make it much easier.

thanks for the vid
Try watching more from that channel, it should help.
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.
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
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.
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.
They have introductory science channels like Physics Girl, and a high end science channel called Space Time.
what kinds of jobs incorporate biology 🤔
That's something you should just google. 😄
it is by far my favourite thing to learn
yea i should
lol
Most biology courses are going to require learning more complciated math than others would. Like, say, a degree in some law field.
It's annoying though because most professional biologists don't do their own mathematical work. They outsource it to people like me.
That's the case in nearly every field of science.
ee
Most professional scientists have little to no understanding of basic mathematics.
They outsource it all.
guess i have to learn some maths so i wont be an asshole
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.
but really- bioloogical stuff is fuckn amazing and like awtching those cool documentaries as a kid really got me into it
i know a job regarding it is likely different but still
xd
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
well at least i can teach my kids maths like my mother taught/still sometimes teaches me
