Probably good, if you're actually learning something. We never had that when I was in High School. At least I don't think we did :uhoh:

Yeah, you learn a lot in that class. It's boring as all fuck, though. It also didn't help that I had it first thing in the morning.

q.rabbit: He was having problems with factoring, and since it's probably the first few weeks of school I chose something a little more advanced than what he was talking about in hope of helping him out. Considering the level of math he is in also, that little calculator trick will help out a lot.

and ex.... I was  drunk and probably forgot I wasn't in the Gen. Smack Talk section. But, that doesn't mean what I said wasn't right. You only truly took offense to my words because you've taken such a defeatist stance with this. I'm certain of this, but I apologize for what I said.

To be fair, I was a little hot-headed with my words as well.  I know the point you were trying to get across, math just takes work to get good at, like anything else.  I'm not totally defeatist though - I spent a cool 6 hours pounding away at functions and graph equations today.  Actually learned quite a bit too.

Anyway, sorry for the misunderstanding.   :thumbsup:

Apparantly there was a back story. From the context of this thread I got "trouble with linear equations" / explanation of factoring higher-order equations. I've always thought solving linear equations was pretty straightforward. ;)
