Algebra Shortcut Trick - how to solve equations instantly 

I've learned more in 4 minutes in this video than my whole semester in my high school algebra class

Dear math: I'm not a therapist. Solve your own problems

I’ve never been one to understand math or do it easily but after watching this video it was a life saver thank you so much you really helped me!

I learnt more in 10 minutes and 14 seconds than 4 weeks in school LOL

This guy is the best teacher and I've been watching him since 2011 and he made me get min 80% in test.I owe him so much.

lmao the 500 people that disliked this video were all teachers.

Mind Blown! I have always struggled with math. I wish that they taught these tricks in school

After having a breakdown due to algebra earlier I stumbled across your video and all I have to say is God bless You!

If your X comes back Remember to ask Y

Thank you kindly mr. Techmat. I'm 45 yrs old . I have struggles in math in my childhood. But now I can understand it easily and enjoy learning. Happy to subscribe here in your channel. .my daughter is growing up. Ill teach her the basic . Rule and law in math.. Things are very simplified here with your teaching.. Jesus bless you sir. Salute and hats off to you.

I had Allegra I & II in high school a hundred years ago. Haven’t thought about algebra in over 30 yrs. now I gotta past a test for a position at work that includes algebra. Nobody made algebra sound this easy. God bless you man. I appreciate you😊

If schools taught this we would have flying cars by now

Nicely done. I love the attitude. I as adult student at 52 fell in love with Maths. Now 70 and still trying to learn. I watch your videos over and over again and as soon as you write the numbers I try and work it out first. Before seeing these videos, I may as well have been looking into a ditch. Keep it up sir........

Where were you when I was a kid? Oh yeah; the internet had not been invented yet! Your videos are helping my kids a great deal. Thanks.

Thank you so much I was never taught algebra and am now expected to solve equations such like these. Your a real life saver.

This teaches me more in 10miutes than how my teacher tried teaching me for 3-4 months

You sound like Bruce the shark from nemo!

What's the point of school when I can learn it here in 10000% less time

Omg you just made this so damn easy I have to take my ged test in three weeks omg thanks happy I got this opportunity but I have one question are you still doing oder of operation when you revising

Kudos sir. I’m a 60 year old man doing this for recreation and to stay sharp. You made it so enjoyable and fun. And, mostly importantly easy to understand. Thank you!

Dude. I almost wanted to cry because this was so hard for me in school and you made it easy to understand. Just an older guy who decided to to try an re-learn this stuff. Thanks.

I'm so blown 🙄 the entire time I've struggled with the quadratic formula when I could've just done this!

Wow! I'm going back to college and had COMPLETELY forgotten how to solve Algebraic expressions. This was SUCH a tremendous help! Thank you!

This is one of the best videos on RU-vid for learning a trick to solve equations using opposite function and direction. Thank you for teaching

Really that easy? So why does school made it look so difficult?..hahahaha..this helps a lot..thanks dude :)

OMG!!! This guy is awesome, for the first time ever I have figure out how to solve equations the easy way, man... I have never been so happy in learning something new in all my life. I was so overwhelm with excitement after he presented the first problem that I was able to pause the video and work out the remainder of video questions before he reveal the steps and the answer and I got them all right and analyze them the same way he did. I am indeed very happy and proud I've learn a new way of solving math problems.

THIS HAS CHANGED MY LIFE OMG!!!

It’s 2019 and THIS REALLY HELPED

he sounds like hes baked. baked with knowledge. Lmao

I wish this guy had been my algebra teacher in high school. I would have done great. Glad I've found his channel. Thanks for posting.

Buddy, You made my Whoooooole day. I do equations just like that. Mentally. Multiplication is division when you mentally multiply two numbers 7 times 2 is 14. You did it exactly the way I do it. A teacher told us how to do this, when I went back to school to get my Diploma. I was 32, when I finished. I started when I was 28 yrs young. I'm now pushing into 60 in two short years from now.

Me: plays algebra video for the exam Tecmath: "Goodoy m8" Me getting a flashback in 4 grade when I saw a vid of him teaching me to do minus and plus

Is it inappropriate to say I love you, you have just saved me from the stress of my math class. I always knew math is not hard , it's just understanding it. You have given me confidence, all the confidence that my college math classic have stripped away from me. I am on anxiety medication because I felt like ..... Let's just say not understanding my class work was slowly killing me. Thank you for saving me. I really feel as if you just saved my life. I almost drowned in a lake when I was younger, I was blessed enough to be saved. Even that can not compare to that you have done to restore my confidence in my ability to understand this math. Thank you so very much.!!!!

You are a miracle to me. I've already learned so much from you. More than I have from math teachers.

Im in my 80's, and have been learning some of the stuff I could never understand when at school (or since). How I wish I had, had teachers of this guys ability. PLUS, this is the first time I realised, that Square root is the opposite of squared! thank you

ive gotta say your tutorials and teaching style are brilliant. i was never any good at maths at school, now im in uni and maths is a key subject area these are absaloute GOLD. thank you

Omg, you're a genius really! I used to suffer so bad with my maths, always going to extra maths lessons and being a dissapointment to my math teachers. I was actually really bad, everyone used to laugh whenever I gave an answer out so I just stopped trying. I stressed so much about it that I began to fail my other lessons too. After watching this particular video I carried on and on the playlist and as cheesy as it sounds I'm glad to say that even my math teacher said she was impressed! Thank you so so so much! If only you were my actual teacher!

this guy even taught me a quicker way to write the letter X

Thank you so much!! God bless you for all the work you put into making these.

I really just watched 3 videos and didn’t understand it but you were straight to the point and didn’t go in circles so I understand it Thankyou sm

Why couldn't you have been my teacher in math? Omg they were so awful , I actually understand what you're doing

Thank you so much! Soon I have my high school math exam. I was scared that I wouldn't be able to pass it sucessfully but now I feel more confident. *Your videos are a real life saviour;* thank you for existing hehe And your voice is really relaxing and positive, makes me feel less sad about my no math skills.

I got 50/50 a test, coz you helped. What you did in 10mins the teacher did I 2 months. Why can't we learn watching RU-vid? Less time, Less fuss.

You have a voice for audio books. I can imagine you reading a children’s book 😊(no hate comment!)

This is awesome!!! Thanku so much sir! :) never thought, it could be done in this amazing way....so happy...😊😊

Dear Algebra, Stop telling us to find your X She's never coming back. And don't even ask Y lol longer version :D

Thanks for the help I was having trouble at first but this really helped me

Tech maths thank you a lot it really helped me on algebra because this was one of the thing I really struggled on

Nice explaining, my teacher goes way to fast in math so I always like to learn it at home. If I don't get something in the video, I can keep going back until I understand.

Thank you so much, damn my teachers teach my a whole different way and I couldnt get it right and we both were frustrated... now you just helped me ALOT thanks so much!

This is amazing and helps me enjoy algebra again after many years of not studying it. Thank you!

Starting to understand my high school math all over again. Needed a refresher 😂

Thank you Bruce sincerely Nemo!

This video is amazing! I loved the giggles 😂

OMG!!!!!! 50yrs of math terror, cleared up in 3 seconds. Unbelievable! I'm so grateful! At the age of 63yo, I've decided to go back to school for my degree, & after watching your videos, I feel I've been released from math prison. Now, I'm no longer terrified of taking placement exams & math classes. I always knew there were hidden secrets to unlocking the math mystery, I just never had anyone take the time to teach me. Not only am I voraciously consuming your videos, but for the first time in my life, I'm excited about math. Who'da thunk it? Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!

YOOOOOOOOO I LITERALLY WAS SO CONFUSED IN MY MATH CLASS AND THIS METHOD IS SO MUCH MORE EASIER!!!!!!!!!!

There is nothing wrong with him being smart on math. Its nice i wish i was smart as him

actually this is the how normal of solving algebraic questions I think

Thank you this really helped me hopefully I’ll remember it for my GCSEs

I am so excited about this!! This is actually something I won't forget in two days. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!! I am learning this very thing in college right now, (developmental math) and I just could not soak in all of the rules and whatnot of evaluating, simplifying, solving algebraic equations. I'm too old to be a freshman in college and must be out of my mind attempting this. But, this I can do. Thanks a million.

OMFG why did my math teacher not teach me this way!!!!! i have always had trouble with equations until now omg thank you so so so much!!!!

I love your channel because it helps a lot in tests. (THUMBS UP) :)

Thanks for the lesson. It's super useful

THANK YOU SO MUCH ! This is really helpfull.

Problem with that is if you did that in an exam you'd fail for not showing your workings correctly.

absolute life saver

thank you so much this is an very helpful video i searched for alot thats the only one that helped me understand the steps clearly.

Excellent presentation! Cool as heck.

Before i really hate Math, but now luv luv luv, thank you for this vedeo more vedeos please!!!

you are a freaking genius!!!!!!!!

I love this channel. These tricks make it a snap. This video was just as helpful as percentages and fractions.

That was a great help! Thanks so much!

1:15 wrong! there is missing a bracked

when you done that evil equation with the root, you sounded like a child on christmas morning :) thanks

Truly helped a problem ive had for years thank you man

Great teaching. Could you do a video on BODMAS. Your way of explaining maths principles is very clear and logical.

math quiz...If you have 7 pencils and I have 4 apples, how many pancakes will fit on the roof?

That was great unfortunately my short term memory dictates me watching it over and over again to get it to stick, however, that was very easy, just not easy for me to remember. Great job

These are pure brilliance, gaining so much confidence right now

thank you so much. 💕I feel more confident to take my Ged math test a second time. much love

why the heck can i understand you but not my original math teacher like jesus christ.

I love this guy i lewrned this in 5 mins and in school i take loke 1 hour or more

Awesome video man thank you for the help

tysm for sharing this! 👍 it helped me so much and u explained rlly well! I'm learning algebra again from scratch!

-TheOriginal- Dear Algebra, Stop telling as to find your X,and don't ask Y

this guys a freakin genius he belongs at Harvard or something

Holy cow!! Now i know how to make it easy. THANKS MAN👍👍👍

I love your accent and I love you man! This old girl is trying to prepare for the MCAT and you just gave me some hope. Thank you so very much. I'm literally crying. Thank you!

You sound like Bruce the Shark

ehh..maths should try to solve it's own probs....

I have a math exam today (I’m in year 7) and I haven’t learnt algebra and It’s manly on algebra! So this has helped me heaps 😂

Thank u very much, really appreciate it and all ur videos

This is exactly the same as normal equation solving. You just used another notation. I don't really think it makes things any faster, you still have to know how to inverse the operations. You can solve all of them fast and without much effort using the "standard method". (5x - 8) / 3 = 4 5x - 8 = 4 * 3 5x = 4 * 3 + 8 x = (4 * 3 + 8) / 5 x = 4 It's all just basic algebra.

I remember one time my math teacher said, "Algebra...is your bruh."

You are the absolute mathematics master. You talk at at great speed and you have a lovely friendly voice. Thank you :-)

Watching your videos for the last two days. A few videos showed up in my YT feed. None ever taught like this. As I don't do maths in my profession nowadays, but if I remember these, will definitely teach others hopefully.

√9 = +3, -3 Am I right?

I really hate algebra it's cause of my stress and give me alots of problems with every day.

I passed my exam. Thank you so much for your videos, they were a fantastic help!

Josh fantastic, really good explanation and follow along. Took me two listens but now I’ve got it. Now can be of help on this to my children 👍🏽
