Algebra 2 - Factoring Differences and Sums of Cubes

In vintage Yay Math fashion, we explore the elusive topic of factoring differences and sums of cubes. A next step above differences of squares, we find the pattern required to solve these beasts. In addition, we cover completing the square, the quadratic formula, and imaginary numbers to complete the solving process. YAY MATH!

Much better than my teacher

[@maeannenglishprogram2584]

thank you for sharing your teaching techniques .. i want to share it also in my math class

[@lucynsh.7302]

You are one of the best teachers. ..

[@alialhamady6260]

you are one of the best teacher

[@kayajones527]

This helped me so much, Thanks!!!

[@ashleyb2537]

Great video- as always. Isn't the last one going to have 3 solutions too? Can someone tell me why that only applied to the first two?

[@andrewm6424]

All 3 problems had 3 solutions. But he erased the easiest factor to solve for 0 (the x-5 in the case of the last problem) to make room on the whiteboard for figuring out the remaining two factors.

Fractions is not the problem, must face the problem without avoidance 🖤

[@harol311996]

Why did you re upload? Was there something wrong with the old vids?

[@catherineferreira4518]

@mahnoor lol that is not nice!Mr Ahdoot your awesome ,I like how you can just be yourself around and in front of everyone .

[@randywilton3466]

haha, "I dont like fractions," "but fractions like you!" "Nuh huh"

[@andrewm6424]

You should have listened to the student who said “one more time” at the beginning of the video. You only did “Yay math!” two times. One more would have been three times. And the whole video was about cubes. What multiplied by itself three times?

[@nanim7423]

where do you get x square

[@dwightsarmiento9124]

how did you get 16 from (4)cube!!!!!! but it should be 64 whattt!!!!

[@Ckdude100]

dwight sarmiento because he's not cubing it, the b term is 4 and he needed to square it for the c term

[@ghazishaaban5253]

why he multiplied both sides by 1 over 4

[@andrewm6424]

He was completing the square, which *only works* when the coefficient of the x^2 term is equal to 1

[@UwUChito]

well I just went to class when i didnt had too.

[@davidmedina5643]

I didn't know Oscar Isaac was into math.

[@titgriffin1512]

Painfully unfunny

[@JuanTorres-ny9ff]

i agree

[@Immvnvvl]

I agree math isn't funny it's interesting if you could understand it just like physics

[@robvangessel3766]

Good instructor when you get to the topic, but clowning around too much gets distracting and frustrating for viewers.

[@andrewm6424]

@robvangessel3766 Don't speak for everyone. Clowning around might help a bunch of people you don't know. We, the KZbin viewers, have the advantage of fast-forwarding through the parts we might find annoying.
