Caleb Harrison That's great! I'm really glad to hear that you're happy with your instructor! The more good teachers we have, the better educated future generations will be. Enjoy! P. Leonard
Caleb Harrison That's fantastic but if your instructor/professor is so great then why surf youtube for calculus videos? Just saying. These are invaluable resources for non-traditional students. Much luck in your Calculus career. Cheers.
Professor Leonard , I'm not sure if I got this right, but the graph you were working on from 28:00 and on..., isn't the concavity of that graph increasing from neg-infinity to approximately negative one? If the graph is going from left to right, shouldn't the slope be increasing from (-infnty, -1)?
Leonard, I can't tell you how grateful I am that you exist. let me tell you how much easy you have made my life, maths is my all times favorite subject now. I pray you live a long and happy life, so that you can continue making students' life easy all around the world. please keep posting more brilliant videos. I am struggling a bit in trig: I hope you read this and I'll really appreciate if you reply.
+Maha Agro Hi, thanks for the comment!! Videos are always in the works, and Calc 3 is being posted this semester. I have some other projects in the works, and I hope that Trig becomes a little more understandable for you. Good Luck!
Sir, you are not only raising the education standard of your own country but the world. I am enjoying Calculus here in India. Your youtube channel is probably the best place on the Internet. Thank you for the lectures.
Instead of music when practicing other stuff, I just listen/watch these. When I do come and give 100%, I already understand about 30-60% of the video. Keep being the Calculus 🐐
I feel extremely fortunate to have you for pre-algebra, trig, calc 1, calc 2, calc 3, and differential equations. Maybe linear algebra is coming?! Seriously though, thank you for doing SO much! You’re getting me through my statistics and comp sci degree.
Prof Leonard, you've got a gift for teaching. Thank you so much for helping us all get through math class! By the way, keep telling jokes because you've got a witty sense of humour.
Thank you so much!!!! Sometimes I need to be taught like I'm a 5 yr old...very simple, absorbent, and concise...I actually have hope of passing my online class.
I think an easy way to represent concavity is through velocity and acceleration. You may have a negative velocity but you can still be accelerating/decelerating and vice-versa.
Thank you Mr. Leonard. I credit your style of explaining Calculus for my new found confidence in applying the Product, Quotient, and Chain Rules, Differentiation by Substitution, Implicit Differentiation, and Related Rates; and now Concavity. Part of it for me, I think, is in the way you speak of the common mistakes you see and warn against doing them. Like when you've warned against distributing terms that are not distributable. With this concavity, there are times when the slope is decreasing in the mathematical sense while it is getting steeper in a graphical sense as at point c at 35:00 in this video. Where the graph is getting more steep in the negative direction the slope is decreasing. To the graphical mind this may be an initial stumbling block. Also your "follow the d/dx" has been very helpful to me. Thanks again.
I love maths but then there are most times i can't do things myself. We don't have proper classes (offline or online) in India which sucks honestly. But i love your explanation the most. I've been searching for an english free tutor for a long time, then with God's grace i found you sir Leonard. I am in grade 12 currently and this it so helpful. Thank you sir!❤
You are the GOAT. The real MVP. So easy to understand when you explain it. Thank you professor, you saved me and a whole bunch of other students from struggling. I am now striving for an A in my calc math class.
It is a point where something interesting happens, because the original function has a vertical slope at this point. It is interesting, but frustrating, behavior of the function.
Leonard, Thank You for making these awesome videos. The way you teach is very effective and fun. Also, making these videos free was the best part, some people are at a financial disadvantaged, and it's good to see there are still people who are this smart and still like to help others without expecting something in return($$) . Honestly I have never had teacher that can teach as effectively as you do and never expect to. Hope the best for your future! Keep on doing GREAT things!!!
at 1:15:32 solution of x^(-2/3)=0 will not give x=0 as solution. In fact it will give 1/x^2=0 so x has to go to infinity for 1/x^2 to be 0. In fact at x=0 the slope is not defined. It is still a critical number
At 1:17:56, why is the function not undefined at -1? Wouldnt that give a root with a negative in it? My calculator even gives me a domain error when I put it in.
this is awesome!!!!! i can't believe calculus could be this interesting. thanks Sir. i'm going to tell my friends about your videos.... and yeah they will loveeeeee it!!!
Hey Mr. Professor Leonard. Thanks a lot for your lecture, i watch this series really carefully. But i think on the 1:15:40, at x=0 this function is not differentiable. Because x^-2/3--------> 1/x^2/3. Denominator cannot be 0 :)
Calc exam tomorrow, and I'm in the middle of an amphetamine powered study extravaganza that'll last at least 10 hours. BLESS THIS MAN FOR MAKING THESE VIDEOS. These are the damage control for my poor decision making : ' ]
Sir ur way of teaching is fabulous..but as I m learning calculus for the first time..so plz add subtitles on all ur videos for calculus...I will very thankful for this.
Respected Professor Leonard, I am very grateful to you for sharing such type of great knowledge. I hope you will must go ahead to keep help of younger. But I am confused on 47:00 to "If you have a denom, set denom=0 as well" What does it mean. I am not a native speaker may be it is due to language difference. If you please could not mind and can explain me I will be very thankful to you.
There is a break at 19:56 where he comes back and it is clear that some material has been skipped. There was no prior discussion about the 2nd derivative test, so this feels a little confusing... like we missed part of a lecture.
Just have a question is it really x=0, when you take the value of x in x raise to the negative two thirds = 0. Is there a specific rule in it? When I use calculator it shows undefined and as I also try to calculate it it seems that it will result to 1/x^2/3 = 0 which means that if x is 0 then 1/0 is undefined. By the way this channel is great!!
Thanks a lot for such quality lectures. It's really helping me and my friends a lot. Really I can't express how thankful I'm to you. Btw which book do u recommend for practicing problems? Please let me know sir. Once again thanks a lot. 🙏
Around that part, I thought (-infinity,0) were indicating the coordinate, until he wrote inflection point x =1. Then I know it was increasing from -infinity to 0, but not the function at the point (-infinity,0) was increasing.
also what do you mean by holds water... I think of holding water as in MY COUSIN VINNY "does the defense hold water?" is that how you meant holding water? like the poetic metaphor way or do you mean curved shaped to fill up with liquid water that can be transported and saved for another moment in the future?
Random question, but is this the same class throughout the entire Calculus series? I mean litearlly the kids he's teaching...is it the same bunch through the whole class?
wow.... I just came up with a genius idea... the double like button... only the God's can receive such an applause. how freakin awesome is it that an exponential function is constantly climbing? like its a U shape and even when it goes down its really going up bc its just less negative less negative less negative, pause (Nate dogs voice) HOLD UP, positive more positive more positive... poopie caca I say gosh... its not difficult to think of its just very odd its like trying to remember a dream its cloudy and its like wait the truth is right in front of me I just need to clear more of this gases mist smoke in the way
Does anyone have a link to the type of sign analysis test that's done round 1:25:30? I've done sign analysis for inequalities but I can't see how plugging in two random "test" x-values close to the asymptotes necessitates that the sign of the entire interval is the same as the output of the test values . . .
@@AliSeyed I think you're right, instead of factoring I turned the exponents into fractions with surds then added the fractions, now equating to zero, only the numerator would lead to zero, even on the calculator 0^(-2/3) = Math Error. I am not sure how the professor concluded x could equal zero. However, I also took the denominator into consideration to determine where the slope is undefined (equated it to zero). And THAT's where x=0.

1:19:41 for the x^{-2/3}, isn't x can't be 0 because if it's 0, then it will become 1/0 because of negative exponent?
Yes, I noticed that as well.

x = 0 cannot be a critical point. x^(-2/3) = 0 does not yield any solutions. Other than that, this was a wonderful lecture. Thank you!
