  • You shouldn't rush. Quadratic equations need more attention! You didn't even give the formula X(subset1,2)=-b+/SQRT(b^2-4ac)­/2a

  • Indeed the quadratic formula is important, I may even spend a video deriving it. However, I'm assuming calculus students have taken a solid background in algebra and precalculus, and thus have encountered said formula. Besides, solving the quadratic is not so important in terms of the calculus we can do on quadratics (or polynomials in general).

  • I cannot thank you enough for helping me awakening the skills that I somehow lost after Pre-Calculus. You're work is great.

  • I am very happy to see the vidoe after you give this The second part to the lecture.

  • I Really Like The Video From Your Lines, Parabolas, Circles, and Translations

  • Your Video Is Very Useful Sharing The second part to the lecture.

  • after i watched this video, my insight is very open because the video is very good to give information The second part to the lecture

  • You're confusing me, when you're talking about circles the K value was the radius or the diameter? I am familiar with the translation principle. I am taking precalculus next year and then calculus.

  • @joshnghiem your an idiot

  • Ya, I don't get that either. Shouldn't it be + to move to the right or up, and - to move left or down??

  • Quick question. When translating the circle in the positive x direction (right) why is it (x-k) and not (x+k)? Surely you would require a positive number to shift it to the right and a negative number to shift it to the left? Great videos by the way, thanks.

  • ummm why are you trying to do this math in grade 8 if you dont get it when u ussually dont have to know it till like later on in high school...im in grade 7 and I just finished studying trigonometry but i get it....my advice to you is dont try to do this untill you have pretty good knowlege of both algebra and trigonometry
