    The test I took was mostly y=mx+b problems and evaluation of expressions

    Just wanted to say thanks. Just got my results back and made a 7/9. Average on algebra, above average on reading. I’ve got my interview in a few weeks. Looking forward to it

    I see what you did there good sir and I appreciate the heck out of it. This video was relatively short but concise. I take my test soon. I waited until after I got my letter with the test date in the mail to actually start studying and I am extremely grateful I stumbled upon your video. I'll let. you know how I do. Again, thanks for the great content.

    You are not allowed to use a calculator for the test.

    On question #13- how would you know to divide both sides by 3, instead of subtracting both sides 3?

    • @ColfaxMath
      @ColfaxMath  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The reverse of multiplication is division. The reverse of addition is subtracting

    Sorry I am a complete dummy w/Math-for question #2 It asks what would it be compounded in 2 years-did You not calculate for only 1 year above?what am I missing(a brain)

    • @ColfaxMath
      @ColfaxMath  ปีที่แล้ว

      You find the interest for one year first, than find the interest on that interest for the next year.

    • @ColfaxMath

      Thank you, you move the decimal over two places when converting from a percent to a decimal. It is the same.as.dividing by 100

    Hello good sir, very grateful you've created this set of videos. Perhaps my question is too rudimentary but I'm left with certain questions upon watching you do things such as 6:22 where you convert decimals to percentages. There's not much explanation as to why/how you move over that amount. Why not just move over one step? You do this again at 7:19 where you say "I could just knock that over to get 30". Again, not sure why you're only moving it over once instead of twice like you did before?
    Lastly, the whole calculator thing. Seeing as how they're not allowed in the test if you could just briefly mention what it would take to solve it without a calculator that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you again for having made this!
