If anyone is wondering if there was an error in math by the teacher, in short he didn't distribute his negative. Distribute your negative and you'll get your correct answer.
evn my algebra book has incorrect answers printed in the answer key? its sooo frustrating to work the same problem again and again only to discover the answer ur trying to get is actually wrong! i wonder if it undermines the position of power in this country if the majority of the population gets a good education instead of a small elite :(
1:56 here the 12 will be negative 12 according to the multiplication property { (-) x (+) = (-) } so the -4/5 is negative and the 15 is positive and we are multiplying it . so answer will be -12. and the final answer will be 5.
@@alexkennedytv7323 Division also works here because the fraction is really just a number multiplied by the X, so u can apply the inverse operation here
Love your vids but you talk/explain too fast sometimes. At least for me personally. I'm trying to relearn all this to help my kiddos it's been way longer than I'd like to admit😏I'm sure your students can follow along but perhaps not all can? Just a thought anyway thanks for content.

YES!!! thanks mike for noticing and letting me know. Will pin your comment so others are not confused
Brian McLogan Thank you sir for helping others in Algebra.

@@brianmclogan THIS VIDEO SHOULD BE ELIMINATED. no one reads comments.... just watches the video and expects to learn......

final answer is -5 not 5. try replacing these number in the place of 'x' in the question .
This is why Math antics need to make more videos.
Yes lol
Thanks! This helped out a lot!
"Are you making a video"
"Yes, I would appreciate it if you were a bit quieter"
"Sorry"
Im in 6th grade, I love your videos so much
happy to be able to help
@@brianmclogan 10 years later will you still reply?
Does anyone listen to what he has to say or do they all think it is easy. He always keeps his temper and cool.
When you multiply the 4/5 by x & 15, isn't it a -4/5? -4/5x - 12? Thanks
And at the end he multiplied by 4/5 instead of dividing 4/5
Because the dash in between 4/5 means to divide so therefore you need to do the opposite which is multiply ! 🙂
@@alexkennedytv7323 Division also works here because the fraction is really just a number multiplied by the X, so u can apply the inverse operation here
12 - 8 = 4, so 4/5(x+15) has to be 8, so if x = -5 one gets (-5 + 15) = 10 x 4/5 = 8
x has to be -5, not 25????
Thank to goodness, I have been searching comment section for the answer and I too got -5, NOW I THINK I AM NOT THAT DUMB
There is a mistake, THE REAL ANSWER IS x=5
Umm actually its -5...
@@rekhakewlani3732 thats what i am saying
I don’t mean to hate because you helped me but I think you did do a step wrong
supposed to use the negative which then ends up with 12 cancelled out.

slow down the audio
@lorih2568 ok, so you CAN do that?!!😵How? Ugh, yep, I officially feel much older now😫
teaches class when there’s a mistake smh 😂😂 how’d they do on math finals😂 other than that pretty good though
sometimes my mistakes are noted during the video sometimes it is not till after the recording is through
where is the mistake
@@brianmclogan I'm still rooting for you teacher.
Didn't distribute the negative bruh
My answer to X=-5
X=-5 not 25 😉
y u got + 4x /5 + 60 when u were multiplying -4/5 (x + 15 ) the answer should be negative and the x = -5
Who else was annoyed by the girl coughing 😩
I have a huge test tomorrow and I think I’m screwed
-25
my answer is -5
Do you know where the mistake is?
you are supposed to -4/5 times x and -4 times 15, I think that was the mistake
I did do that, I just simplified it
maybe 4 u... wasn't simple for me :)
It would still be the same answer
this video has a mistake
ohh now I see it
Horrible! Just buy a book and teach yourself..
haha exactly!
Elita Ali Don’t be mean...geez
Damn...
Horrible! Just don’t comment again and go off the internet!
It’s actually good you’re just bad at understanding
