Algebra I on Khan Academy: Algebra is the language through which we describe patterns. Think of it as a shorthand, of sorts. As opposed to having to do something over and over again, algebra gives you a simple way to express that repetitive process. It's also seen as a "gatekeeper" subject. Once you achieve an understanding of algebra, the higher-level math subjects become accessible to you. Without it, it's impossible to move forward. It's used by people with lots of different jobs, like carpentry, engineering, and fashion design. In these tutorials, we'll cover a lot of ground. Some of the topics include linear equations, linear inequalities, linear functions, systems of equations, factoring expressions, quadratic expressions, exponents, functions, and ratios.
About Khan Academy: Khan Academy offers practice exercises, instructional videos, and a personalized learning dashboard that empower learners to study at their own pace in and outside of the classroom. We tackle math, science, computer programming, history, art history, economics, and more. Our math missions guide learners from kindergarten to calculus using state-of-the-art, adaptive technology that identifies strengths and learning gaps. We've also partnered with institutions like NASA, The Museum of Modern Art, The California Academy of Sciences, and MIT to offer specialized content.

Idk ive been homeschooled, using khan academy since the 2nd grade, virtually no other resources besides that and youtube. Idk kinda mid. Unless youre doing virtual learning all by yourself, just with sucky teachers, or like youre an extreme introvert, wouldn’t recommend it lol
Real
How come when my teacher explains it I don't get it, but when you explain it makes much more sense! Thank you Khan Academy!!!!!
i felt that to a spiritual level
Because you are stupid
@@samadsameena5606 No , it's just that sometimes teachers overcomplicate things.

great lesson.. I have an eighth grader struggling in math.. I pray watching your videos will bring her up to speed..the kids laugh at her when she gets something wrong and she gets turned off from school really.. I try to tell her everyone makes mistakes sometime.. I tell her I'm happy when you at least try..thanks again for your video
your a good teacher... keep it up!!!1

I hope things are going better now for you and your daughter
What level of understanding is she in?
Khan Academy is great. It makes stuff I have no idea about in my Algebra class be taught in a more simple way.
Hi,im in algebra 1
Ikr
I'm in pre-algebra
Lazy boy
Thank you Khan Academy for the video that saved me from dying
I missed a few days of school due to sickness and came back to algebra class and it felt as if they were speaking a different language. This is so helpful thank you!
ikr
This guy finna save my grades

faxual
ahlie
You are honestly better than my teacher. That is a very high compliment because I rate my teachers S tier.
I’m in 7th grade honors so I am learning 8th grade math so this really helps!!
I wish I could give you a thousand likes, ooh my Allah you are the best teacher! Thank you sooooo much
Thanks for the video,
Now I'm three grades ahead of my curriculum. keep up the good work
what grade are you in?
@@minda1729 8th grade, most likely cuz thats when they teach slope
@@Divinity82 i did slope in 5th grade wha-
Really grateful to have you. Thank you Khan Academy🙌🏻🙌🏻
Thank you sooo much!!!! I didn't understand this in math class and now everything my teacher said finally makes sense!!! You are a true life saver. You just literally turned my c into an A! :-)
Yeah
Increase over run makes more sense
Really Great Lecture!! 👍👍
Much Appreciated ❤️🎉🙏
this makes SO much sense, literally im so grateful to you!! thsnk you very muchh
My physics teacher told us to watch this as homework-
World's best explanation I have ever seen.
thanks for the lesson .... that was really helpful
Thank you so much khan academy you helped me so much so far my math teacher shows us many things like we already know it and doesn't explain his work you have saved my grade thanks
Thanks so much you help me to understand well
Oh! This video is really on time for me. Its our topic for maths
I love this guy so much he teaches better than my teacher
my math teacher talks too fast so this helped a lot!!!
Yay i understand it now! Our class finally is learning it and i know how to do it! Thx in the GEM program we are doing this in the 7th grade book i am in 6th grade
this helps me understand more
wow this video is better than my teacher’s teachings
o(-`д´- 。)
Best explanation I heared!
This was really helpful
This guys a Genius
Thanks
This is awesome!!! Now I get it!!! Really wonderful way to explain this!!!
i love ur videos! pls keep posting them. im actually doing this stuff right now!!!!
this makes so much sense now
Sal you are the best maths teacher!
my child is in 5th grade and she is learning 8th grade math, this really helped her understand how this works
Please put this into "Algebra" playlist at appropriate index.
Best teacher ever!!!
Thanks. That helped
thanks khan acadamy!!!
You did a decent job explaining the concepts in simple terms, change in y over change in x (rise over run). But it would have made the lesson whole if you would have presented the equation in slope- intercept form for each line, plugged the numbers in from the each of the lines and solved the equation in slope- intercept for both lines (showing the difference of the two slopes). That way we can see how the numbers on the line are represented in the equation and the slope of each line. Thank you for uploading and showing the basics
this dude got a nice voice
Thank you so much
not all heroes wear capes
How do u keep making everything so clear if you were a teacher everyone would get a hundred
Can someone please help me out a little more? I am kind of stuck on the "increases" and "measure the slope" kinda stuff, and it is kind of new to me. You can even call me an idiot, if it helps me out in any way. I really want to know how to master this lesson.
That's okay, sometimes it just takes longer to understand. :)
Simply it's this: if the line runs further horizontal, then it will have a less steep slope. A line with a steeper slope with run further vertical. :)
More horizontal rise equals less slope, and more vertical rise equals more slope. That is how quickly a line decreases or increases - when it increases further, a larger slope upward is indicated. When it decreases quickly, that's indicating a slower and small slope range. :)
Hope that isn't too confusing. May not see this but felt compelled to give it a shot for anyone else who may come across this. :) Been out of high school a couple years but I still recall that much :3
@@nocturnalvisionmusic thx so much
@@LordAcastra you're welcome :)
I like that there's a link to extra practice after watching the video. It solidifies concepts that were covered in the video
thanks man i learned every thing
My teacher really likes your channel so keep up the work because this helps me.
This is great you have several series on integral and differential calculus and now you post a video introducing slope :L
nicer expalanation
Great Work !!! I really like your method of teaching !!!
I know this is an old video to comment but I really want somebody to explain to me and answer as to how steepness as Sal puts in the video be defined as "how quickly a line increases or decreases"?? I do understand that slope is the magnitude of how much a line inclines or declines from the horizontal axis or the ratio of change in vertical axis witg respect to change in horizontal axis but the definition mentioned above as by Sal here confuses me. I fail to conceptualise and understand it..can't make sense mathematically. I'd really appreciate and be thankul if someone could /would offer some clarity and explain in mathematical context!:)
No ones answering because your wording is too complicated. I still don't understand what you don't understand.

If the definition of slope that told us that " Slope is the numerical measure of steepness" So can we change "m = y2-y1/x2-x1 to m= x2-x1/y2-y1"?
Yeah I have a similar same question
khan academy is the best
Thank you good sir.
No clue what any of this stuff means, but it was an easy assignment so that’s cool
Thanks

Ski slopes are always negative ;) otherwise you're not skiing lol the thing you ride on is where you experience the positive slope.
Do does that both graphes are increasing?
I still don’t get it :(
felt that
Me too I’m crying cause I’m gonna do a quiz
It has something to do with height or depth or angles? 😢
Just like velocity and acceleration.
As acceleration or deceleration is constant change in velocity,(i assume it to be constant, when it might not be constant in all cases)
Similarly slope is constant increase or decrease in height or depth when you're moving in the vertical direction or mapping something that has height of depth related to the point where you're standing.
Well even i don't really know what slope is 😂
But as far as I understand for example if I'm standing outside a 3 story building at a distance 50 m and the height of the building is 20m, now i have been given a job of connecting a cable from top of the roof to the ground point where I'm standing.
Now calculate the length of the cable or rope which will be connected from roof to that ground point you're standing at and calculate the slope?
A²+b²= c² , 2500+400 = 2900 c=√2900 = 53.85 something metres long cable.
The slope is how much metre it is elevated per 1 metre (unit metre) of the horizontal distance. So slope= total height(or depth) of the vertical object divided by the total distance(on the horizontal plane) you're standing from that object = 20m /50m = 0.8 m
Slope is always more than 0 if you're not standing on the object or are parallel to the top point of the object or you are inside that object, in these cases the slope will be zero 0,
Like if you're standing on the roof of that building the slope at that point is zero, or if you're standing inside the building the slope again is zero.
Slope is nothing but a ratio of vertical distance vs horizontal distance between any two points in a (x,y) plane where x is horizontal axis and y is vertical axis.slope is steepness
This is all i understood about slope , i don't know if it's right or wrong, 😶🌫️😶🌫️
it's ez
i will starg to pass math again thznks
Not English though
pfffthahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahha lol
can't thank enough. i'm just soooooooooooooooooo grateful!
What is the slope when x is funtion of y
Hey, im confused. Slope is delta y over delta x, but to find delta y and x, what order do i subtract it? Like if the points are (-1,2) (-4, -5), what order do i subtract in? Would I do -5 - 2 or 2 - -5. The slope would be different based on which order i do. Please explain the order I should do it in.
y2 - y1 then x2 - x1
will be same irrespective of coordinates
Someone said that Someone else math video's are better but i think this is
What device do you use to write?
dev1ce
But what does slope one represents?
The other week my teacher explained this to us it took her 2 classes
Not all teachers are created equal. The derivative is the next level of slope :)
how can someone write so well on a laptop!
Avigat Gupta he uses a sketchpad with a pen
@@rayanekouni5032 But his cursor is moving, if he used a pen then how would his cursor move
It’s a special one watch salman khan 60 minutes episode and you’ll see
I'm going to need to watch this video a couple more times.
this really helped me in algebra, thank you!
I think im slow (witch isn’t a bad thing) but I have to watch this a few times for me to understand it right and fully. Im just so bad at math yet I want to be good at it I want to understand it but I just can’t :(
- 8th grader
the slight roughness in his voice i-
I thought it was y=mx+b
Uno no amigo
🙏 gracias

Yes but on the Khan academy test it doesn't give you those two points! Graph the slope is the name of the test.
I thought it was y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
It is
An easier equation for the gradient is RISE/RUN for the graph.try it out,it's really helpful.
(Change in y)÷(change in x)
I still don't understand what is this
Perfect 👍 also add .....slope of a straight line is the same at every point on the line ...but when it comes to a curve it changes
Bad lazy boy
T pose Fellas
I still Get it I’ll never understand I’m crying because I have a quiz and I still don’t understand
I pray you did well
I failed but it’s ok
@@andersa222 this stuff is ALOT I found it difficult myself for yrs! but sorry to hear that, if you're having issues with solving the formulas try referencing some videos that help you with distributing properties because its alot of that in these linear equations
@@andersa222 and these Khan Academy videos he does a good job giving you visual representation of what he's trying to explain so try to really pay deep attention to the parts where he's graphing points cuz that makes it a bit easier once you see the lines on the graph
@@SoloACE88 thank you you for caring 💖
Could have put this up a few weeks ago when we were doing slope in class...
he doesnt know when you learn things your so dumb
to be honest , i've always found it easy to learn from this guy,
but unfortunately not for this time
i learned the slope before and i forgot it
but when i tried to learn it here again i was struggling to learn it
this could be the worst explanation of slope i've ever heard
tbh i found it easy to understand but everyone learns differently
heh 600 like
