Algebra Prayers

  • Prayers Alone
    Lee was the single mother of 3 children. She worked so hard to provide for them, she hardly got to see them. She wanted her 3 to have a better life than the one she had. But being away so much from her little ones, always made her sad. Although so tired from working 2 jobs, after she got home; she'd make the best of her time reading stories, and never letting them say their prayers alone. As time went by and the children grew, they knew how things were. They helped each other while she was aw Read More...
  • Algebra for Dopes - It Aint That Hard - The Quadratic Equation - Part III
    In Part III of this series, we examine how we solve factorable quadratics of the form ax^2 - bx + c, in which both the a and c terms are positive, but the b, or middle term, is negative. Such an example would be x^2 - 5x + 6. This class of quadratics, which we will call the "b-negatives" are easily solvable using the factoring techniques we learned about in Part II. To get right to the chase, let's look at the quadratic in the first paragraph: x^2 -5x + 6. Remember, we are looking for the so Read More...
  • Algebra For Dopes - It Aint That Hard - The Quadratic Equation - Part V
    In Part V of this series, we examine how we solve the last class of factorable quadratics of the form ax^2 + bx - c, in which the b-term is positive and the c-term is negative. Such an example would be x^2 + 4x - 5. This subclass of quadratics are as easily solvable as those of the "bc-negative" class discussed in Part IV of this series. To show how similar this class is, let's examine x^2 + 4x -5. This is the same quadratic as the first example in Part IV of this series, except the 4x ter Read More...
