I started watching your videos last year in high school and many, these are going to save me. You teach at just the right pace and don't belittle your audience, giving problems that actually make sense regarding how they increase in difficulty? And you don't just assume that because you've explained a rule once it'll be clear when and where it applies, especially in more complex problems. Fantastic content, can't believe this is free.

[@marvelgeekie9897]

Ikr my math teacher gave us a paper with all the exponent rules and was like I can’t teach it to you guys so you should know it also you have to know this in 3 days then we test and I don’t understand a thing

^ imagine you owe me 6 dollars. You are 6 dollars in the hole.(-6). You then come back and ask for 5 more dollars, which I loan you. You are in the whole for another 5 dollars (-5). You now owe me 11 dollars (-11) +11 for me means -11 in your pocket

cutting it a lil'close eh? if we (myself included) would spend as much time studying as we do watching TV i bet grades would improve drastically! if there is ONE thing i learned in HS... tests r easy if were prepared :)

[@JordyIsDone]

Amanda S i usually dont spend time on tv suprisingly. I just have a lot in my schedule that week and i couldnt find any time outside of school until then to study. Also my teacher rarely gives us more than a week to learn a whole lesson before we take the test. And she confuses me when she teaches. Sorry if it just sounded like im lazy but it just seems odd to me that math always came easy to me and when i get into this class when i even study and participate in the class i still get confused and my grades have gone from straight A's to C's and D's.

[@amandas1270]

Been there :) i think we teach math wrong? were taught rules that elicit a correct answer like.. how to solve the pythagorean theorem..then we do a ton of similar problems. we're hardly ever asked to solve problems were not familiar with? i came to think math was a series of rules to be memorized without knowing how to do different kinds of equations... bugger. i wonder if the establishment evn wants EVERYBODY to get good at math? or jst a chosen few ?! good luck... we're gonna need it :)

[@JordyIsDone]

Amanda S thanks you too

[@scisarah3770]

@@amandas1270 I agree with your statement full-heartedly! I always wondered why I did so poorly on mid-term/final exams related to maths, and I think that very much has to do with what you stated. Many students learn *how* to do a problem and not *why.* I hope both of you are doing well with your education!

Great stuff. A question: When you get to about 8:49 in the video, and you go a^3 - a^7, how do you know a^-4 goes in the numerator?

[@eshaanbarkataki9198]

Because a^3 / a^7 = a^-4, or 1/a^4

[@FishyRaijin]

@@eshaanbarkataki9198 anything with a negative exponent goes down

[@eshaanbarkataki9198]

@@FishyRaijin Ya, and I did that. a^-4 = 1/a^4.

[@naznaz1378]

@@FishyRaijin It can also go up if the negative exponent is within the denominator.

[@vahotwa464]

When the base is same and they are dividing then the power of the denominator gets subtracted from the power of the numerator that’s why a^3/a^7= a^3-7; a^-4
