How To: Use the laws of logarithms

ProfessorElvisZap teaches you about the laws of logarithms. When x is positive, meaning 0<x. x times y equals y times x. This is the commutative property. x times (y times z) equals (x times y) times z. This is the associative property. x times 1 equals x. This is the multiplicative property. x times x to the power of -1 equals 1. This is the multiplicative inverse property. You can use these properties with addition: a+b=b+a, (a+b)+c=a+(b+c), a+0=a and a+(-a)=0. A logarithm is a homomorphism...

How To: Solve quadratic equations by square root method

In this video the instructor shows how to solve quadratic equation by the square root method. The square root property of equations states that if k is positive and a*a = k, then a is equal to square root of k or -1 times the square root of k. So to solve a quadratic equation by square root property first get the equation in the form of a*a = k. Now apply the square root property explained in the previous step to get the result. The instructor now demonstrates these concepts by solving some e...

How To: Multiply binomials with the FOIL method

Multiplying polynomials is a distributive property. If you are given with two binomials and asked to multiply them, you need to apply the distributive property and multiply the terms of binomial with the terms of second binomial. To do this first take a term of first binomial and multiply it with the second complete binomial. Now take the second term of first binomial and multiply it with the second binomial adding or subtracting it from the previous result depending on the sign between the f...

How To: Solve quadratic equations by factoring in math

In this video the instructor shows how to solve quadratic equations by factoring. You can solve a quadratic equation by factoring them. To do this first write the equation in the standard from which is a*x*x + b*x + c = 0. Now factor the equation into two smaller equations of single degree. Now you can apply the zero-factor property to solve the equation in this from. The zero-factor property states that for a real values a and b, if a multiplied by b is equal to zero then value of a must be ...

How To: Find the opposite and absolute value of a number

View the absolute value of a number as its distance from zero. When you take the absolute value of a number, you always end up with a positive number (or zero). Whether the input was positive or negative (or zero), the output is always positive (or zero). For instance, | 3 | = 3, and | _3 | = 3 also. This property that both the positive and the negative become positive makes solving absolute-value equations a little tricky. But once you learn the "trick", they're not so bad. Let's start with ...

How To: Solve quadratic equations by factoring

This is a great educational video on how to solve quadratic equations by factoring. Let us take an example and try to learn the method. Here is a quadratic equation: (r+7) (r-9) = 0. Consider zero-factor property. For real a and b, if a.b = 0, then a = 0 or b = 0 or both are equal to zero. So r+7 = 0 or r-9 = 0 > r = -7 or r = 9. Hence, r = -7, 9. Similarly to solve a quadratic equation (13r+7) (6r-18) = 0, we will get 13r = -7 or r = -7 over 13. Also 6r = 18 or r = 3. So r= -7over 13, 3. Thi...
