Writing a Linear Equation from a Table - Algebra I

In this video, you will learn how to write a linear equation from a given table of values. In order to write the equation, you need to know the slope intercept form of a linear equation, which is y = mx + b, y and x being the values, m being the slope, and b being the y-intercept. The slope is always the rise over run, meaning you have to find the change in the y values (y-axis rises/falls), over the change in x values (x-axis left/right). Once you find the slope, you can substitute it into the y = mx + b, and take any coordinate to fill in the x and y variables. Then, you simply solve for b, which is the y-intercept. Once you have the slope and y-intercept, substitute into the slope intercept form, and you have your linear equation.






Graphing Absolute Value Functions - Agebra I

In this video, you will learn how to graph absolute value functions. Absolute value is the distance of an number from 0 in a number line. The absolute value of any number is always positive. When graphing absolute value functions, keep in mind that the graph will not be a straight line like in linear functions. Instead, the line will look curved and bent. Before you graph an absolute value function, it is important to find all the coordinates. In the chart shown in the video, the x values of six coordinates have been listed. As for the y values, there is a function given: y = Ix - 5I. In order to find the y values, you have to plug in the value of x into the function, and then find the absolute value of the answer that you get. Once you have all your values, graph them to get your final answer. Thanks for watching this video, and hit like and subscribe for more videos every week!






Direct Variation - Algebra I

Direct Variation - Algebra I

In this video, you will learn about direct variation. Direct variation is the relationship between two variables that is consistent. In most examples of direct variation, you will be given the values of the two variables, and asked to find the value of one of the variables, when the other variable equals a quantity. In order to find that value, you must use the formula for direct variation. The formula is y=kx, in which y and x are the two variables, and k is the constant of variation. The constant of variation is the ratio of variation between the two variables that is constant for all values. To find the constant of variation, substitute the values given for x and y into the formula. Once you have the constant of variation, substitute into the formula with the third given value to find its varying value.

Quadratic Formula and the Discriminant - Algebra I

In this video, you will learn about the quadratic formula and the discriminant. The discriminant is the value that determines how many solutions and the type of solutions that a quadratic equation has. The quadratic formula is a method for solving a quadratic equation.

The first step is to put your quadratic equation into ax^2+bx+c form. Next, you identify the values of a, b, and c. Now you will substitute these values into b^2-4ac to find the discriminant. If the value is positive, there are 2 real solutions. If the value is negative, then there are 2 complex solutions. If the value is equal to 0, then there is one real solution.

Factoring a Perfect Square Trinomial - Algebra I

In this video, you will learn how to factor a perfect square trinomial. When factoring a perfect square trinomial, you first need to identify whether the trinomial is a perfect square trinomial. You can do this by determining whether the first and last terms are perfect squares. If they are, then it is a perfect square trinomial. Next, find the square root of the first term. This is the first term in your binomial. Then determine the square root of your last term which will be the second term in your binomial. The sign is determined by the sign of the second term of the trinomial. Once you have your binomial, put parenthesis around it and put it to the second power, or square it. So the result of factoring a perfect square trinomial is a square of a binomial. That means that is you square the binomial, you will get that perfect square trinomial.

7th Grade Math - Types of Triangles

There are 6 basic types of triangles which are distributed into 2 different categories.
The first category is based upon measurement of angles. These triangles are Right triangle, Acute triangle, and Obtuse triangle.

The second category includes the triangles based on the measurements of their sides. These triangles are called Equilateral triangle, Isosceles triangle, and Scalene triangle. Here is a description of each of the triangles:

Right Triangle: One angle of exactly 90 degrees.
Acute Triangle: All three angles are less than 90 degrees.
Obtuse Triangle: Only one angle is more than 90 degrees.
Equilateral Triangle: All of the sides are of equal measurement.
Isosceles Triangle: Two of the sides are the same in measurement.
Scalene Triangle: All of the sides are of different measurement.

7th Grade Math - Vertical angles

Vertical Angles are two pairs of opposite angles made when two lines intersect. These two angles are same in measurement. So knowing this you can find the measurement of one of the angles using the measurement you already know. Also in total 4 angles are formed in vertical angles. For more details watch the video below.



What are Vertical Angles - 7th Grade Math

What are Corresponding Angles -7th Grade Math

Corresponding angles are angles that are in the same location at each intersection of lines. For example, let's say that a pair of parallel lines are being intersected by a transversal line. The two angles on the same location for each intersection will be known as corresponding angles. Also if the two lines are parallel then the corresponding angles will be of the same measurement.



What are Corresponding Angles -7th Grade Math

7th Grade Math - Circumference of a Circle

Circumference is the measurement of the outer boundary of a geometric figure, especially a circle. In order to calculate the circumference of a circle, you have to use the formula C = 2(pi)r in which C stands for circumference is equal to 2 times the value of pi times the radius. Once you have all of the values, you can simply substitute to find the circumference. In the following video, you will learn in complete detail how to calculate the circumference of a circle using various examples.



Circumference of Circle- 7th Grade Math

7th Grade Math - Area of Rectangle

In order to find the area of a rectangle, you simply multiply the length times the width. When it comes to seventh grade math however, we use expressions for the measurement rather than simple numbers. The formula stays the same. Once you have multiplied the length by the width, you substitute the value of the variable and calculate your final perimeter. Watch the following video for a more detailed explanation.

Supplementary angles are two angles that will always add up to 180  degrees. Let's say that we have an acute angle that is 80 degrees and an obtuse angle which is 100 degrees. If we add the two angles together, we get a supplementary angle. Therefore, supplementary angles are very easy to understand. For more details about supplementary angles, please watch the following video.

7th Grade Math - Types of Angles

There are 3 basic types of angles which are the following:

  1. Right angle
  2. Acute angle
  3. Obtuse angle


A right angle is exactly 90 degrees in measurement.
An acute angle is less than 90 degrees.
An obtuse angle is more than 90 degrees.
