Thanks for watching!

[@zianjohnillustrisimo9375]

This was very useful especially since we are still studying quadratic equations in high school😁. Thanks a lot.

[@mariammansour4461]

Seriously awesome video. Explained everything in a few minutes, more useful that hours of class at school .

[@yourmathtutorvids]

Thank you! So glad this helped. All for learning things efficiently haha

[@boracolin]

Love the way you gave realistic exam question examples! Great vid.

A big thanks…subscribed!

Late to the party but this was wonderful help. Thank you

Thank you tahnk you thank you

If your frame of reference is at the top of the building, then the height h = -200 not 0. So t = 5.16 sec.

[@serahmulenga2243]

Is the value of n ok? I mean the max poin

[@MrTesfayesus]

Thanks for the video! Also, what are the formulas?

[@humphreymulenga2145]

Wow you made it look so easy 💯🤝.That's was very well explained, plz another video, or is it okay to email you a question?

[@yourmathtutorvids]

Late response - but feel free to ask the question here if it’s not too late!

[@roginutah]

Was asked if the quadratic applied to equations where x has a power greater than 2. anyway, nice work. Oh, dropped the 2 when rewriting your sq root?

[@yourmathtutorvids]

There would be multiple maxes and mins for equations with a power greater than 2. There are questions about things like absolute maxes in more advanced classes. For algebra 1, we’ll stick to power of 2 only!

[@yourmathtutorvids]

Where did i drop the 2? Trying to find it 😬

[@roginutah]

@@yourmathtutorvids When you rewrote -5 +- square root of 12825, you rewrote it as square root of 1285. Dropped the 2 from the tens place. At the end of the section you asked us to find the error. (2:39 bonus points!)

[@yourmathtutorvids]

@@roginutah omg yes! I did drop the 2 there. I was replaying the video and could not figure out haha. Good eye!

[@user-jz8uq9gk1p]

you have messed up while entering equation into the calculator

[@norvegicusbass]

Can I ask is the answer to the first question correct?

[@IyadElBaz]

how you go from 12825 to 1285 on the first one

[@yourmathtutorvids]

I accidentally dropped the 2 :( it’s supposed to be 12825 not 1285

[@harhukamaulakh9410]

@@yourmathtutorvids So was your answer wrong or right in the end?

[@zikresarkar]

it was √12825. So it should be 113.24 and then calculate it.

[@ponzianomanning3071]

Shouldn't the question in PT 3 be "how to maximize.revenue" instead of "how to max profit"? Higher revenue doesn't always equate to higher profit.

[@yourmathtutorvids]

Late reply to your comment but yes! you're right. this problem is actually to maximize revenue since we're not considering the expenses that are being used in the situation. awesome catch. too bad youtube doesn't allow edits after uploading!

[@emanueldikirr2680]

@@yourmathtutorvids I love the way you take corrections so positively🙂

[@JacksonWinkates]

Regina should not be tossing rocks off buildings, that is extremely dangerous.

[@yourmathtutorvids]

Yes I agree
