    But you reminded me of the one thing I'd forgotten about, distributing after pulling the exponent in front.
    -_- I don't know why i keep forgetting that, but now i can take my Algebra final this week with a little more confidence.
    Keep up the Vids Dood!
    They are easy to understand and since i can pause I can take them at my own pace. They have helped me study for my final far better than simply doing problems over a over again ever could. :D

    Thanks for the reminder. I completely forgot that you could just pull out the exponent when its in a log. I needed to calculate the number of rounds a tournament would have programatically and it is 2^x = y; where y is the number of teams. so x = ln(y)/ln(2). For 16 teams ln(16)/ln(2) = 4. Perfect!

    @MrCapeVerde the amount of work to understand intermediate algebra is rewarding. i had to take it a couple of times to let the material sink in. i'm glad that i did, because it built a strong foundation when i took calculus. once the math clicks in your head, you'll enjoy the material a lot more. that goes to any subject once you understand it. and i agree, it takes a lot of time, but it's worth the "eureka!" moment. :)

    • @oZqdiac
      @oZqdiac Год назад

      Because in logarithm rules log(a) + log(b) = log(ab)
      So basically when you add logarithms together you can multiply the two numbers in the logarithms together and make one logarithm with the product of those numbers.
      Also works for subtraction as well
      log(a) - log(b) = log(a/b)

    • @majidal-busaidi5137
      @majidal-busaidi5137 10 лет назад +3

      first divide both sides by 3 , the result is
      (5)^(2x-1)=6
      then take the log in both sides
      (2x-1) log 5 = log 6
      then divide both sides by log 5 , the result is
      2x-1=1.11328
      add 1 and by 2 in both sides you will get
      x=1.05664
