I take Algebra II but its calculus at a college level.. makes sense right? But its pretty hard. Our teacher has a high demand which makes it pretty hard. Fortanutely, I have a 82 in that class
Right now I am in PreCalc/Trig and AP Statistics. I like both of them a lot and have an A in both. For Statistics I get credits to college because it is an AP class.
Next year I plan to take AP Calc AB. It is a semester of college Calc.
ugh I hate math. Currently I am in 8th Grade taking freshmen math, Algebra I, and our teacher doesn't teach. He just shows us how he does it, gives us atleast 40 problems on our math and says "good luck". During lecture though he gets off topic a lot so it's hard to follow him anyways.
yeah i'm in england and im doin all maths at A-Level. 'cept decision maths. I got an A at GCSE level but the syllabus is different to USA. I'm currently gettin Es-Cs at A-Level. At the moment we're doin plynomials and cubics.
Differentiation
f(x)=dy/dx
f'(x)=d^2y/dx^2
i.e. dy/dx=anx^(n-1)
d^2y/dx^2 is the second derivative
e.g.
y=6x^3+8x^2+16
dy/dx=18x^2+16x
d^2y/dx^2=36x
Integration
y=anx^(n+1)/n+1
S ax^n dx=anx^(n+1)/n+1
eg.
S (5x^3+4x^2+5x+6) dx= 5x^4/4+4^3/3+5x^2/2+6x+c where c is the constant of integration.
Feel free to post comments or questions by clicking on my name about maths or anythin else, yeah?
Taking Pre-Calc atm. Really should be in Honors Pre Calc but I get really lazy on hw because it's always farming for answers and I'm not patient enough to check my answers on my tests.
Honors Advanced Algebra with Trig ... I used to think I was good at math, but the hard and easily confused concepts, not to mention the poor teaching (my teacher is cool, but he gets off topic a lot) humbled me to a borderline C.
