You should make some more basic algebra tutorials like this! I would've loved math so much more if you were teaching me.

I have been a fan of yours for years.
You show the standard methods for whatever topic you address.
Thank you for your versatility and adherence to rigor.
p.s. Your videos on series convergence/divergence are the best treatment of that topic. “Best Friend” is so useful.

literally the only video I could find that was helpful thank you!!

Finally, a video of the basics instead of the advanced stuff that boggles my mind

Thank you so much. Trying to help my daughter with homework. You saved me.

I love it when you carefully show all the steps for the beginner students. 👍 So many teachers skip things and confuse the newbies!

Along those lines, perhaps you could draw a quick diagram of a 2D graph and say something like, "The 'x intercept' is where the line 'intercepts', or crosses, the x-axis, so y is zero at that point." (And vice versa, of course.) So many students have difficulty remembering that the *x* intercept is when *y* equals zero, and vice versa, so I think a quick drawing can help those who are more visual learners.

Thanks again for the great content on all your channels!

Teach us some Vector Calculus and/or Matrix Algebra.

You can use x/a+y/b=1, it would be faster.

Is there a direct formula to find only the slope

[leonardobarrera]

How do you make that cool photos for your videos?
Because is very

[therealsillygoofguy]

thank you very helpful prolly wouldnt have to watch again

5x-2y=8

x intercept
y=0
5x-2(0)=8
5x=8
x=1.6 ♥️🧡💛💚💙💜

y intercept
x=0
5(0)-2y=8
-2y=8
y=-4 ♥️🧡💛💚💙💜

Slope
5x-2y=8
-2y=-5x+8
y=2.5x-4

5/2 is the slope ♥️🧡💛💚💙💜

Why didn't they call the x-intercept xintercept (cin-ter-cep) and the y-intercept yintercept (yin-ter-cep) (this is a joke btw)
