Math From Scratch 35: Defining Polynomials
The latest chapter of Math From Scratch is here, and details the formal definition of polynomials.
Math From Scratch 34: Order of Operations and Isolating Variables
Lesson 34 of “Math From Scratch” is available here, detailing the order of operations for mathematics and the methods of isolating variables.
Math From Scratch 33: Constants, Parameters and Variables
There will no longer be summer breaks in Math From Scratch to ensure that the iTunes feed stays active. The latest entry can be found here, dealing with an important piece of understanding algebra which far too many public school curricula ignore almost completely.
Math From Scratch 32: Real Numbers
This installment completes volume 2, and defines real numbers.
Math From Scratch 31: Limits
In this installment, we introduce limits and use them to lead to the notion of complete sets. This is the last piece we need to define real numbers next month.
Math From Scratch 30: Implications of an Impossible Number
This month we look at the implications of an impossible number constructed to examine the value of infinite processes. We look at limits next month and formally define the real numbers in June with the end of Math From Scratch: Volume 2. After that, Math From Scratch will return in September.
Math From Scratch 29: Decimal Representation
This month we closely examine the decimal representation of numbers here.
Math From Scratch 28: Rational Exponents
Our latest lesson covers exponents composed of rational numbers.
Math From Scratch 27 – Infinite Sequences and Series
In the second part of our look at sequences and series, we pay particular attention to the infinite variety.
