- In this third video of the Math 144 club, Kate and the class take on the types of algebra problems that can show up on your math test. Follow along as we interpret what each problem is asking and review the basic algebra unit of the Crash Course.
Thank you so very, very much Kate. Please know that we appreciate and love you for all the effort that you have put in to help us gain our confidence to ace GED💯
Thank you for encouraging me, Sherit! I was just feeling a little discouraged. You've brightened my day!
@@LightandSaltLearning awwww you're welcome so glad i did!
Very good video as usual, 👍👍, enjoyed the conversation. whenever I watch the video, I first pause, and solve the problem by myself, then watch the solution, just to make sure do I know how to solve the problem? Most of the time my solution and your solution turn out the same👍but today I stuck with 3rd question of quadratic, my calculation did not give me the same answer, that showing on your calculator. on the fourth time I figured out the difference of minus and negative, accidentally I put minus instead of negative☹️. I always listen to you very carefully and note everything in my notebook, and in my head 😀by doing this I learned a lot from your videos and your suggestions, thank you, thank you for being a great and kind teacher.💖💖💖💖
This is a great way to approach the videos! You'll always remember a lot more of what you DO than of what you just hear or watch. I am so proud of your determination and persistence and know you will go far because of it, Saira!
@@LightandSaltLearning thank you, and I am so proud of you, your hard work,your help with kindness and generosity.❤️❤️
So nice, I'm so happy you are helping me. I did my GED actual one and got 140. This part i was blind.

Thank you very very much dear. You are so kind to me. I appreciate it very much and I'm studying. Because by next week I will retake again.Also number line absolute value this I have to study hard. Thank you and God bless you.
48:25 one thing that would be super confusing to me on the test is; if i see the mistake on step 3, wouldn't that technically mean they made the mistake on step 2?
Really I love you Kate. And love the way you make things easier. I'm fati malak from ged group
Thank you so much, Fati! You are such an encouragement to me!
another good video ,I did not finish today ,tomorrow I will complete it. thanks Ms. Kate
Wonderful!
At 1:06:01, I don't understand why the 21, became -21. I'm getting stuck here. Whenever you have a quadratic and a number other than 0 is moved to the other side, does its sign always flip?
Thanks in advance!
To move number from one side of the equal to the other sign, regardless on what type of equation we are solving, you use INVERSE OPERATIONS (opposites). So to remove a positive 21, we subject 21 so we do get 0. We can do whatever we want to an equation, as long as we do it to both sides, so we balance our change by doing the SAME THING on the other side. Does that make sense?
do i always have to put my squares outside of the parentheses? i didn't do it for the question on 13:56 and still got the right answer.
It will give you the same number in some cases, but not ALL. It is important that you put the exponent outside so that you ALWAYS square the entire number. When what you are squaring is a simple whole number like 2 or 17, you'll get the same answer. However, when squaring more complex numbers like negatives or fractions, you will get a wrong answer if you put the exponent inside. Does that make sense?
on the question at 13:54 why isnt 2.75 multiplied by 3.1 as well? i perceived 2.75 as being the value of f and that i needed to multiply it by 3.1 too
Hi Kate, do you happen to know if you can use a piece of paper for your equations in the virtual test?
I just passed my GED practice test all thanks to your super helpful videos so I'm finally ready to take the proper test!
Unfortunately, you can't use scratch paper on the online test. However, they do have an online scratch pad you can use. It is a bit of a pain so I highly suggest you head over to the ged website to practice with it before testing
Congratulations on your progress!
@@LightandSaltLearning I will, thanks again!
How did you get 10x and the 40, when you -5/4 *8 and -5/4* -32 using the calculator? I didn't get neither 10 or 40 when I put it in on my calculator like you said. I don't understand.
Did you multiply? -5/4 times eight? -5/4 times - 32?
Thank u so much I been so confused 😕
You are so welcome!
@@LightandSaltLearning I really appreciate your video your teaching style fits my understanding skills .Your video pull me out of a deep depression because I barely pass the practice test for math
@@billpracells8876 Wow! I am so so glad that they had such an impact! Are you using my website www.lightandsaltlearning.org so you can remember what you've learned by going in a logical order and completing practice activities for each new concept?
Hi Kate, is it possible to pass the test if I don't understand quadratics?
Absolutely. You may have to solve one or two quadratic equations on your test, and you only need to get about half right to pass, so no big deal if you have a few weaknesses. If you decide you do want to strengthen your skills with quadratics, here is the lesson page from the Crash Course. Check out the example video at the bottom that shows you how to do it almost entirely with a calculator. www.lightandsaltlearning.org/1-algebra/solving-quadratic-equations-with-the-quadratic-formula
@@LightandSaltLearning Good to hear, thank you so much. Your videos have been so helpful, will check out the crash course :)
the answer c for the question factor6m-13m-5 has + before 1=(2m-5)(3m+1)
sorry , but
IAm confuse??? thank you
Yes, +1 times -5 equals -5.
How did you get 2.75? Is this calculator on the test ?
Can you tell me which problem or timestamp that that answer came up on so I don't have to watch the whole vid to find it?
And, yes, if you are taking the GED test, this is the calculator you will have on screen or, if you are taking in person, you can have a handheld version. Check with your particular testing center to see if they provide handhelds or if you have to bring your own if you want one.

Hello for question in 30:12 u multiplied and then u combined like terms but in question 46:10 u didnt multiply u added after distributing the negative sign, is this because the negative sign was there other wise u would distribute the 2 meaning u would multiply is this how i would tell the difference also thank you for this video i am 2 years late haha
No problem! Happy to help.
If you still need assistance with this, please post the problem to our FB group facebook.com/groups/lightandsaltlearning
I thought additional mean add and per means divide so I thought it was b
Which problem are you talking about here?
