This content is absolutely beyond expectations -truly phenomenal. I've always loved Crash Course and I absolutely loved my time studying at ASU (: Having both of them combine for the best alegbra lessons on RU-vid is a dream come true! ^-^ thanks so much for this invaluable gift!
Go Devils! Thanks for the positive feedback. Are you subscribed to our channel yet? We have several other playlists available on topics like Data Literacy and Chemistry (this playlist is called Study Hall: Algebra). Head on down to ru-vid.com to keep learning. 😈
@@arizonastateuniversity Sure thing 🙏 thanks for the learning opportunity 😁 and yupp I was already subbed. oh excellent! Thanks for the tip. Those are topics I indeed would love to delve into, especially data literacy. Thank you very much for sharing 👊💯 I'll definitely be hitting those up. Cheers! Take care (:
Well, hopefully I will find this helpful with my non-verbal learning disorder. I find that it really helps me learn whatever I'm learning if I can study it to the enth degree. That is, look at it inside and out and look at every single little step and sub-step and why things work the way they do.
Hopefully it helps! There are more videos like this in our learning playlist Study Hall: Algebra. You can can check it out on our channel and subscribe for video updates at ru-vid.com
I'm 44 years old with a college degree. I never figured out a reason for algebra; no rhyme or reason for it. I've used only two formulas of it, since I took it. I hope that I can learn something from this man during this video. LATER, after watching: Yes, I learned something. Yay me!!!
I hate to say this, because I was sure this would be a great video. I've already been thru algebra and calculus and I'm confused by this presentation. I can't see how this will make anything easier. Speaking to the teacher now: Do you remember the delta process in calc 1? Do you remember that once you learned it, you never learned it again? Do you remember the chain rule? Please tell your students to balance equations by isolating terms using simple rules we all know and love. Change the plus/minus and do the numerator/denominator thing when moving terms across the = sign. I prepped a failing student the day before her test and she got a decent grade for the course. It's really quite ridiculously easy to do. They always pick it up right away. I'm sure this course is amazing. I'm confident it works.
I finished high school math with a straight A and I had no idea you could have two independent solutions for x. (facepalm) We only ever got two solutions when dealing with squares, as x could then be either positive or negative. And of course I also divided by x without considering it might be 0. I thought I'll just refresh my memory on what I've forgotten since school, instead I learn I didn't even know the basics. Humbling. Now I'm looking forward to watching the rest of the series. You've set a very high bar with this first video.
I searched Crash Course to check if they had something before going to Khan academy and freecodecamp.com and I was shocked to find my own college that I attended in collaboration! 🤩 ♥️♥️♥️

holy crap where were you when i was asking questions in math class, i feel like he wouldn't send me to detention for asking how a problem can be applied to the real world.
I've always detested algebra. This tells me I need to man up and do the needful. It's a strange attitude considering I LOVE Calculus and want to really be able to grasp things like Linear Algebra. This should be interesting.
When balancing an equation, you can divide anything into a zero, but ‘not 0 itself’ and therefore not 0/X to balance. Hmm, that makes sense and I’ve never had that explained before. Algebra is too confusing for me when you do not know the Axioms or what you can do to either side of an equation. Like, is an exponent subject to a “+1” to both sides rule or just base variables? Similar to the 0 example above, I did not know you could do this.

The simplification if math is different here than from math is fun! It will take time again to do this for me since I get x by the negative portion of the equation. Not bad though.
OMG Why does algebra make sense now....how come I was never taught to just balance both sides...all those year learning steps when the concept is so simple. Never thought Id see the day I could do equations in my head like this...I feel so dumb
When he broke putting the "math googles" on it was helpful for me and understood the scale explanation and how to balance the equation. However, I am confused about the 2nd equation and why he divided it by 2. He stated the balancing technique still works but he divided the equation by two. Why did he do that? Is he just showing a different approach? It confused me to see it done two different ways. Could the first equation be divided by 2 as well?

I'm completely lost as to why he's representing the 2 in 2x as a box with an x on it. I'm so lost I didn't even understand that's what that extra x was (because it doesn't appear anywhere in the equation) until I counted the frogs he piled on there and realized they represent the other numbers. Process of elimination is suggesting it's the 2 in 2x that he's representing as a box with x on it, but why? It's a 2, isn't it?

I totally agree that math is an universal language, just like music and art. It’s also the language that God communicates with me. Creative Math with Ching-Hui🤗😊🤪🥰
I dont understand how oranges times lemons = fruit salad (A step away from understanding) and Meters times seconds = nobel prize (A step away from.....?)

At 7:24, your popup says 0/0 0! You're right, but zero factorial = 1, which probably added a layer of complexity you didn't intend. It may have been more sensible to just mention divide by zero errors here? Or eliminate the exclamation point?
