TC Math Notes

I can't be bothered trying to type all those superscripts but this was a great problem for someone trying to re-learn maths. I got close but wound up with 48 times x to the power of 17 times y to the power of 7. I multiplied two of the x exponents instead of adding them. I think when I learned maths that the exponents were called indices. Is that right? Anyway, a great problem! If I were your student (I guess I am) I would be asking for at least 90% with a 20% discount for my error and no happy day stars. If I had taken notes in one of your earlier videos, I wouldn't have made the error :(.
