By graphing the exponential function y=2ˣ and the logarithmic function y=log₂(x) on the same coordinate plane, this video shows how the graphs relate as inverse functions.

Order of Operations

This video highlights the correct order of operations to solve mathematics expressions using PEMDAS. PEMDAS is an acronym for the words Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction. For any expression, all expressions in parenthesis should be performed first, followed by exponents, followed by multiplication and division (from left to right) and, finally, addition and subtraction (from left to right).

This video teaches us how to read matrices: rectangular arrays of numbers, symbols, or expressions, arranged in rows and columns. Matrices are covered in our mathematics and computer science courses.

Motion Problems: The Difference Between Displacement and Distance
Click here to view link.

This video defines the difference between displacement and distance. The definite integral of a velocity function gives us the displacement. To find the actual distance traveled, we need to use the speed function, which is the absolute value of the velocity.

Formulas for Position, Velocity, and Acceleration
Click here to view link.

This video explains the relationship between position, velocity, and acceleration. If position is given by a function p(t), then the velocity, v(t), is the first derivative of that function, and the acceleration, a(t) is the second derivative. This concept is covered in our mathematics and physics courses.
