  • Khan does a good job explaining

  • I have to agree with most of these comments. For some reason college math professors don't know how to teach the material. You do a much better job,thanks.

  • omg, everything comes together with your videos i swear. Thank you so much c:

  • Genius: now i will not be wasting the money i paid to do this uni math course. Thankyou VERY much

  • You can apply this method to variable coefficients too, but now r=r(x) and y=e^(∫r(x)dx).

  • I WANNA HUG U RIGHT NOW !

  • I think...no, I'm pretty sure you just helped me pass my math exam... and I think I love you!

  • i love the structure of your videos. many professors with math degrees can't even formulate a sentence as clearly as your whole 9 minute videos

  • i dont understand y u chose e^x...my teacher told me its trial and error to find a solution...which is very time consuming...can i always use e^x?

  • @princemikechoy e^x doesn't work. e^rx does.

  • seriously, i learned an hour of university maths lectures in under 20 mins.

  • great teacher

  • C1 and C2 in themselves could also be functions (not just a constant such as C1 = 3 for instance)??? Could C1 = cos(x) ? I imagine that this would complicate things significantly but I was just curious.

    Thanks.

  • I can never thank you enough, but I will try: thanks * lim(x -> 0) 1/x

  • @Casowsky Better take the abs. of x, otherwise it could be -infinite when approaching to 0 from the left ;) xddddddddddddddd

  • I was looking for a proof. x(

  • this makes too much sense compared to my textbook . . .

  • This guy is a real teacher, you will probably get me though Diff. Eq! My teacher here at Texas A & M is not very good at teaching, he seems to go on the whole memorization concept. I have always hated memorization, because it makes no sense to me (being an Engineer). This video put the whole idea into perspective, and I no longer need to memorize, but simply approach these problems with actual knowledge. Thanks! Thanks! Thanks!

  • my prof fucking sucks ur did amazing job i understand it so well now

  • How the fuck can this man explain in 5 minutes what a PAID university professor couldn't in one hour?

    You sir, are a God among mortals.

  • omg dude i want to suck your dick!!!

  • Quite common to describe oscillations in physics and engineering.

  • is it possible for u to post a video about series solutions? thank you

  • I can never thank you enough...but I will try.Thanks a million. It's nice to know that there are people like you.

    Namasté Sal.

    From Sweden.

  • *applause* Bravo! Bravo!

  • you are true teacher!

  • OMFG i'm about to take my first prelim in this class in like 2 minutes. you just saved me like half a letter grade in these 8 and a half minutes

  • Awesome... Simply awesome... My professor never showed how the characteristic equation is formed by assuming the solution is e^(something)*x. Makes perfect sense. She just did the whole "memorize that to get the characterisitc equation, if its y prime prime, it turns into y^2. If it's prime, it turns into y^1. and if there's no derivative (just y), it's y^0 (or otherwise 1)"

  • Sal !!! YOU !!! are The Shit!...

    In the best way of course XD

  • you are amazing man!!!

  • something says its negative 5 y i dunno of im correct can yu jus chek it up tq regards

  • I love u man ! u explain it all thx :) now i even know why we solve 2nd order ode like quadratic equation

  • I have been reading my lecture notes without a clue for an hour. When you explain it in 8 min, it has become crystal clear to me. Just like a magic.

    you are really wonderful.

  • Your video just saved me probably a few hours of time trying to figure this out myself. I missed some class this week because of the flu, and my math book absolutely sucks. You're a lifesaver.

  • YES. You sir, are the man. I can't believe you do these videos for free. I cannot thank you enough for all these!

  • seemingly...youtube pays him quite well

  • Thank you for your videos! I now have hope that I can understand this.

  • solo las matematicas tienen el carater universal de ser entendidas ...

  • YOU ARE GENIUS

  • wow man thank you very much now i dont have to drop my course XD

  • "maybe there's some other wacko function that would've worked here"

    lol xD

  • Yea, you can also find the solution for Y if you use eigenvalues and eigenvectors. But thnks to you Sal, Everything starts to make sense. I just need a geometric meaning behind them so I can imagine ways to apply them to the real world.

  • Damped Harmonic Motion.

  • Yea man, I need that for my electrical engineering course. That stuff comes in handy.

  • Thankyou

  • I have a question.

    If b^2-4ac less than 0, what is the solution of the differential equation?

  • Complex solution.

  • you get a complex solutions.

  • u er really awesome

  • you do your math magic once again. Love your videos

  • thank you!

  • you have some of the best videos out there. My teacher can't speak english so I have to watch your videos. Thank you.

  • Amazing!

  • Excellent !!!
