    It's really sad when you pay $30,000 a year and your college professor doesn't even cover the material they grade on and you have to turn to youtube for help. Thanks for the video man, helped a lot!

      Probably because professors have to keep you focused for hours on end even though the human brain needs rest intervals every 40ish minutes. It's not necessarily your teachers fault... I mean it might be. But the education system is just dodgy in general. This guy is explaining it well because it is a short concise video not something he has been told to talk about for hours

    I could not find a tutorial online for the life of me that showed how to actually solve the dang thing, I could find the equation... but without an extensive background in math this was all far over my head. I guess people think "oh you'd know to distribute here" or "you'd know to divide by this term here" so they gloss right over it, which is maddening let me tell you. I can't stress enough just how much this helped me, I might actually have a shot at my exam now, haha! Thank you so much for this!

    Thanks had this taught to us today and teacher went way to fast, I got lost where the second value came from( in this case the "86.9085").
    This is the way I learn everything written out and slowly, not a bunch of shortcuts so this video is great
