  • Wtf! My teacher has me do the plus.negative thing....why the hell would u.add a negative!?!?!?! Just subtract it! This is why math is so freaking.confussing to me!!!

  • i wish my teacher was nice like him

  • Ahh the joys of Pre-Algebra in 9th grade where I would do the same thing this teacher does changing the negatives to addition and my teacher would mark me wrong. lol

  • i am only 11 and i skiped six grade math. I barely can mange a B for pre-algebra!!!!

  • I am so confused.

  • @H20MichaelMyers He is just showing you an easier way to look at this problem. Some people have trouble looking at problems that have negatives in them.

  • @JustinBeiberRocksFTW

    Fair enough. I never liked changing it though. For example when he changes 9x - 10x to 9x + -10x, it would be easier for me just to move the 9x over to the right side in my head so it's -10x + 9x = -x. It gets tedious changing all the signs after awhile. Anyways from pre-algebra onwards in math there are always negative numbers so you just get used to doing these in your head. :)

  • why the fuck did he changed to plus? and the number to minus?

    someone tell me i got test soon and i want to leave special high school

  • @DarkMan649

    I honestly don't know why he did that. You can do it but it's an unnecessary step . If you have a number minus a number (like 5-5) it's the same thing as writing (5+ -5). Another example: -5 - 5 could be re-written as -5 + -5. It's just to show you that you add -5 to -5 to get -10. If you have two negative numbers you add them. If you have two positive numbers you add them. If you have one positive and one negative you subtract the negative from the positive.

  • @KimJong7hrill thanks bro.

    and do you learn this grade 7.

    i'm in special education and i got test coming up.

    and i learn i'm smart enough to leave and i always get easy work.

    so what you think i should learn? can you tell me please bro i got test coming real soon. and i really want to leave. i learned A LOT of stuff. and i'm just making sure if i'm good enough to pass the test

    or you mail me if you want.

    peace

  • @DarkMan649

    I learned it in 7th grade yes, I'm in college now. What math are you taking? Pre-algebra or algebra? I'd definitely learn how to do this stuff (adding and subtracting with negatives). Also equations like he is doing in the video. I don't know what your class goes over though so it's hard to tell you what to be prepared for. If you can solve an equation like 5(x-3)+17=3x+2 than you're good dude. That's pretty much the hardest you'll get at this level.

  • @KimJong7hrill

    If you have any specific questions on any problems I'll help you dude. Just send me them in a private message.

  • @KimJong7hrill Hi, can you help me solve this word problem ?

    A gardener grows apples, pears and plums. Half of the orchard consists of apples, one third consists of pear and the rest of plums. Unfortunately, two thirds of the plum stock is affected by plague, with tons of plum discarted as a result. What percentage of the entire orchard was plague victim?

  • @afghanistanable

    I sent it to you in a private message. Hope it helps!

  • @KimJong7hrill He does this step to show people an easier way to look at the problem.

  • This Is Sooo Simple...

  • im in 7 grade and im getting pre algebra O.O

  • my teacher sucks she doesn't explain anything and makes everything more complicated! THIS IS SO EASY WITH A NORMAL PERSON TEACHING!!!

  • I'm taking pre algebra next year so I'm REALLY glad I understood this even remotely!

  • @722kittycat Me too!!! May i ask how old are you?

  • @pipomn1699 I'm twelve but have taken advanced math for two years now.

  • @722kittycat Same here

  • JESUS!!!

    

  • -6x+10=-38 is my problem so..WTF?

  • @leciberlanga lol your one is different than this.

  • @leciberlanga

    I doubt you're still having problems with this after 4 months but you need to get x by itself on one side the of the equals sign and everything else on the other side. X stands for a number and the equation is saying "what number multiplied by -6 and added to 10 equals -38. To get x to one side first subtract 10 from both sides to get -6x=-48. Then divide both sides by -6 to get x=8. You can check it. -6(8)+10=-38 ----> -38=-38 so it checks out.

  • i need a problem like -3+6(4)-45+5

  • + stfu +stfu +stfu  lol

  • right now it is one o clock on a Saturday morning, not having school sence Monday because weather, watching this because i'm bored....help me

  • woudlnt it be squered tho ?

  • @JOKAWILD26

    No. You only get exponents when you multiply variables with other like variables. For example x*x = x^2. Or x^2*x=x^3. When you add x+x you get 2x. Or x-2x=-1x

  • How can anybody struggle with that WTF
