You just taught me something in about 6 minutes that my teacher's been trying to teach me for seven months. Can you just be my teacher

[@dylanramos7828]

Lol I know it takes teachers forever to teach something

[@user-rp4kt9kg9e]

.-. if after 7 months of your teacher teaching and you still had to search up this video then maybe you should pay attention in class lmao

You teached me in 2 and a half minutes something that my teacher couldn’t do in a whole week. Thanks I have a test today and this is really helpful

[@layla1018]

Exactly

[@LightningAnimeFox]

Your better at teaching than my teacher that take 45min just to explain this.

[@6Uzer]

You're*

[@6Uzer]

I was telling the person they spelled your wrong, I was telling them that they should have used the word you're instead of your. You is a possessive pronoun. So given the context, you the person should have used you're. I see you have obviously failed English. So think before you make yourself look more idiotic than you are. Logic is clearly something you are oblivious to.

[@6Uzer]

AguynamedRagnar Obviously if I'm correcting a person on what words they should use in context, then I understand what they meant. Stop making yourself look stupider.

[@aguynamedjames8956]

you obviously did't read my full comment and look having a criticism about the comment you gave me doesn't make me stupid for challenging your criticism about the usage of the word your and you're all that i was trying to say was maybe just maybe you can already understand what he ment by just saying your instead of saying you're which was why i called you a fucking word Nazi. look man all i'm saying is that people on this site aren't always going to use the correct grammar or pronunciation of all words so i apologize for offending you in anyway i really am sorry i may or may not have had a bad day when i wrote that comment so i am sorry it seems vary idiotic to have a fight over the internet about the correct way to say your XD so yeah again i'm sorry.

[@itachi47uchiha31]

LightningAnimeFox Q

[@TheLivieGirl]

Okay..... I'll be honest. I look at math and feel completely stupid. I'm more of a writing, history, and reading person lol. I'm doing independent study homeschool & it's so hard to look at a bunch of jumbled letters and numbers and make sense of it. But, having an easy video (like yours!) to watch and listen to made it so much easier. Thank you so much!

[@patrickjmt]

come back any time!

[@patrickjmt]

@SunshineIsNeeded just realize that most of what happens in class will often be confusing. you might ask your teacher what the next topics are and trying watching some videos before you do that material in class. it will make much more sense then

[@patrickjmt]

you are actually trying to find a value of m so that the functions are inverses of each other... i would just do both compositions, set them equal, and try to solve for m!

[@RoyHoy]

Ok

You shouldn't need this in 9th grade math

[@ayeshaqureshi1699]

Thank u so much! You are my go to math you tuber when I can't understand something-- which is often. You have a video for like every single topic! Thanks!! ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️

[@aquariusleah-playz4807]

Dude you helped me so much 13 years later and your still helping people thank!

[@Xanti2648]

Thank you so much!! I was about to email my teacher because I had no clue as to what she wanted me to do and since I am not in school i can’t ask her so this really helped a lot! Also I would like to add a interesting little thing. ☺️ -> me: clicks on video *ad plays* ad: “are you stuck on math? are the ads from 7 years ago REALLY helping?-“ me: *skips* also me: *checks the date this video was made after watching the video* me: No ad. They are not helping. On the other hand, these video from 11 years ago are! 😊 edit: Again thanks so much! You don’t know how much time and effort you saved me! 😭❤️

[@officiallyade]

Amazing how you managed to te teach me in 5 minutes and 29 seconds what my teacher couldn't this past semester... Algebra II midterm, I'm so acing you! Thanks :)

[@stephanyy565]

I missed one day of high school and this helped me so much. Thank you sir :)

[@AdiesBoyz57]

Anyone in 2023 i really need to understand Function notation when this video was recorded I was just 2 years old I can’t believe now I’m 18 years old watching it to help me 😂😂😂😂

[@frankadams5407]

Thank you so much Patrick! I was freaking out on my homework, because my teacher had not taught the lesson to us well. Then I looked to the internet and her you were. A hero to all advanced algebra takers in 8th grade! If you are not working at another school, come to mine!

[@Dog-je5le]

Thanks so much :p everything in class went over my head, it's nice to have this.

[@ladygagafamemonst100]

Seriously you managed to teach me that in five min WAY better then my math teacher did. Props to YOUUU!(:

[@patrickjmt]

good luck on the midterm!

[@ariyabawa907]

Right before I watched this vid I got an ad saying I shouldn’t be watching math videos from three or more years ago 😆💀

[@zerbiesf4370]

Bruhh that’s a rare name right there

[@lucianwindgates]

I just had a test yesterday, I didn't know how to to do this and I didn't remember going over it. my teacher exsplained it to me and it helped alittle. but u helped me understand the rest. thx u so much. my midterm is next week and now I wont miss these questions :)

[@Mac_Sauce43]

Thank you so much! My teacher has failed to teach me in an efficient manner, so I have turned to the internet for help, guidance, and perseverance. My math skills aren't the best, but maybe a couple months after studying hard and watching these videos, they will be back up to where they need to be.

[@patrickjmt]

congrats :)

[@bigglesworthe]

You taught me more in these few minutes than my teacher in 85 minutes

[@GeoffRosenstein]

"I think the notation could be better, but this is what we're stuck with and this is what we use." Very honest description.

[@patrickjmt]

good luck on the test :)

[@KanamiShojo]

omg you have no idea how much simpler you have made my hw. my original teacher just reads it out of the book and doesnt further explain it. THX ^.^

[@mahfudhashur1052]

15 years ago... and I still understood it, I appreciate it

[@GINOSAURUS999]

1:03 The notation is perfect because f(x) means a function of x which is y because y is the dependent variable of x

[@hunali7343]

So on the second example you're having f(x-3) can you change that "x" in some number? to make it better i mean the goal in math is to use the least resources to find the answer, but i find that to be more fun and easier for me. i just want to know if i can change it in something like x=5 so it will be f(5-3) etc.

[@stale4094]

The point is to use x as it makes it more complex. The question is meant to be more abstract, it wants the solution in terms of x.

[@SunshineIsNeeded]

I actually cried in math class the other day. Thank you soooo much!!!!!

@Fbitalian17 agree 100%

[@mshehe1717]

Woah I totally get it now. Thank you soooooo much! Also I really like your voice it's very strong and clear. You'd make a good public speaker.

[@patrickjmt]

@GamerfulCody it also seems that students are way worse in person as well. coming to class late, whining about everything, texting all day, not doing homework. and then they bitch about how they do not understand. teachers are rushed to teach the curriculum. this is not the teachers fault. people higher in the food chain get pissed if you do not cover all the material and then you get in trouble. and get used to having lots of students in a class. all the teachers are losing jobs now.

[@karatejack1996]

you are great, you really helped me on my quiz that i had!

[@madavisoori]

You. Are. My. Hero!!!

[@patrickjmt]

@GamerfulCody well, i think you are one of the rare ones ( in that you go to school to learn). and do not get me wrong: i had a lot of terrible teachers especially in middle and high school; i can name 5 immediately. i am just saying that is not good to do broad characterizations such as : teachers are worse in person. better to say: some teachers suck as teachers and some students suck at being students. i have been on both sides of it for many years and think both sides have responsibility
