How to add a positive and negative fraction
π Learn how to add and subtract fractions whose denominators are not the same. Recall that when we want to add or subtract fractions having the same denominator, we add the numerators and retain the (common) denominator. This is...

How to find the inverse of a logarithmic function, f(x) = log2 (x)
π Learn how to convert logarithmic equations to exponential equations. The logarithm of a number in a given base is the index/exponent to which the base must be raised to obtain the given number. In other words, log [base a] of x = m...

Identifying compression and stretching of multiple functions
π Learn how to identify transformations of functions. Transformation of a function involves alterations to the graph of the parent function. The transformations can be dilations, translations (shifts), reflection, stretches, shrinks,...

What is a radical
π Learn the basics of simplifying radicals. A radical is an expression having the root/radical symbol. A radical expression can also be rewritten as an expression with fractional/rational exponent. The number outside the radical symbol...

Learn to write the equation in slope intercept form & identify the slope & y intercept ex 1
π Learn how to write the equation of a line given two points on the line. The equation of a line is such that its highest exponent on its variable(s) is 1. (i.e. there are no exponents on its variable(s)). There are various forms which...

Given the slope and y intercept graph the equation, slope = 5, y-int = 8
π Learn how to graph linear equations given the slope and the y-intercept. When given the slope and the y-intercept of a linear graph, we first plot the y-intercept and using the slope, we can determine the rise and the run of the...

Solve a literal equation to rewrite in slope intercept form 4x= 3y-7 for y
π Learn how to solve literal equations. A literal equation is an equation where the unknown values are represented by variables. To solve a literal equation means to make one of the variables the subject of the formula. To do this, we...

Adding real numbers positive to a negative, -3 + 2
π You will learn how to add and subtract integers. We will work through adding and subtracting two integers up to multiple integers. We can look at adding and subtracting integers by looking at there values on a number line where there...

Given an equation not in slope intercept form, learn how to find slope & y intercept ex 1
π Learn how to write the equation of a line in a point-slope form. The equation of a line is such that its highest exponent on its variable(s) is 1. (i.e. there are no exponents in its variable(s)). There are various forms which we can...

Volume of prisms ordering them from least to greatest
π Learn how to find the volume and the surface area of a prism. A prism is a 3-dimensional object having congruent polygons as its bases and the bases are joined by a set of parallelograms. A prism derives its name from the shape of its...

Where does the distance formula come from
π Learn how to find the distance between two points. The distance between two points is the length of the line joining the two points in the coordinate plane. To find the distance between two points in the coordinate plane, we make use...

Given a number and percent determine the missing whole number
π Learn how to solve problems using percents. When solving problems with percents we will either convert the percents to decimal form or use proportions to solve. We will look to solve for the percent of change, the original price,...

Learn how to divide whole numbers by long division, 1248 / 81
π In this video series you will learn how to divide integers. We will discuss basic division and then move to division using long division. Integers will be single digit as well as multi-digit problems. When a number the divisor does not...

How to add two fractions with common denominators
π Learn how to add or subtract fractions with common denominators. When adding or subtracting two or more fractions with common denominators, we add or subtract only the numerator while we keep the denominator the same. We will then...

How to subtract a larger decimal from a smaller decimal
π You will learn how to add and subtract numbers in decimal form. When adding and subtracting decimals it is very important to align the decimal points and use zero as space holders. Then you will apply the operations just like we do in...
