Okay guys, there is no excuse for you to be bad at math anym

algebra? that's not real math. that's middle school shit. where's the geometry?

>>154462766
Is this a meme? Geometry is also middle school math.

wheres the trig and calculus?

>>154462766
Linear algebra is usually an introductory college course, or sometimes an easier version is presented at high school levels. You're confusing regular algebra with linear algebra.

Everything you learn in calculus is essentially a linear transformation.

>>154462493

Differential Equations and Linear Algebra were covered in my 2nd year of secondary school at like age 14.

Do Americans actually learn this in COLLEGE?

I meant overlap in the sense that nothing is required from one or the other. Yes, you can draw relations between the two, but it's not necessary

>>154469137

That's true if you're taking the engineer/science level calculus that's just about computations.

>>154470624
At university, the linear algebra exam was actually easier than the homework (in my opinion). I guess it's because when they give you homework, they know you have like a whole week to work on it, so they give you all these mean assignments like "prove X, then prove Y, then prove Z" and "find the determinant of this 5x5 matrix".
But in an exam, you only have 60 minutes, so the questions are comparatively "easy" and there's maybe one proof required

In Grade 11, I bought this book to prepare for my first class of physics in high school. The book did not help and I end up staying away from physics ever since.

It was a slightly romantic and lewd story though.

>>154471090
Let S0 = Summation (k start at 1 -> n) k = 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + n

If n increases without bound, S0 is a divergent infinite series.

We can show that the sum of all natural numbers is -1/2 under Ramanujan summation.

Have fun with that.

High school level stuff is essentially dumbed down even if it's the same material. I remember my freshmen year of college my roommate asked me for help with his introductory calculus homework. I'd already skipped that class because of AP but when I looked at what he was doing I had no idea how to solve it. It was far more rigorous than what we got in high school. Also I literally never did homework in high school anyway so I didn't get a good foundation. Literally never did it.

>Comparing High School level math to college level math

Linear Algebra/Calculus series were the easiest classes. The proof classes are the hard ones.

High School you never have to explain why the math works, you just take for granted that it does.

Public Service Announcement:

This is probably the first and last time anyone will tell you this so listen carefully.

The algebra they teach you in high-school is a ultra bastardized version of algebra used to teach kids basic symbol manipulation techniques.

Distributive property, FOIL method, factoring Pfft give me a break. High school algebra shouldn't even be called algebra it should just be called baby's variable and equation manipulation rules class.

Actual "Algebra" is a class taken in college that has to do with Gaussian Elimination, Eigen values, Linearly independent vector spans of (insert any n with n being > 2) dimensions.

Whenever someone says they took algebra in high school and laugh, I laugh at how retarded they are.

>>154479356
Yes, but a phase shift (i.e., complex conjugation) doesn't change the underlying structure of the object you're investigating.

In physics terms, it means that the sign convention is arbitrary: for example, the physical laws of electromagnetism, and the methods we use to analyze them (e.g., Maxwell's equations, Laplace transforms) are equally valid in an 'anti-universe' where electrons have positive instead of negative charge.
All we have to do is flip the signs everywhere, which is what the paper states: there is a natural bijection between our universe and the anti-universe. These two universes are not literally equal, but they're structurally identical (i.e., equal up to isomorphism), which is for most purposes a more practical consideration than literal equality.

>>154478950
Generally speaking, and remember there is a state by state standard, but algebra is required to pass high school. In middle school I took algebra then geometry, and in high school I took algebra 2, pre-calc, calc ab, and calc bc. But only algebra 2 is required to graduate so as a freshman in algebra 2 there were a whole bunch of seniors. Of course if I was taking honors algebra 2 then I'd be with a bunch of tryhard freshmen, but since I was only taking regular algebra 2 I was with all the slow seniors. Didn't really bother me though.

People like to say American education sucks but it really only gives you as much as you put in, excluding underfunded shitholes in the inner city of course. I went from some of the lowest level classes to the highest in high school so I saw a diverse range of students with different motivation. Also school segregation still exists. The different races all go to the same schools, and nobody is segregating anyone by policy, but the classrooms themselves are indeed racially segregated. And the quality of education is really vastly different. But this is the fault of the students themselves.

>But this is the fault of the students themselves.
That may be true, but there's a good argument to be made that 15-18 year-olds aren't realistically equipped to make informed and intelligent decisions for themselves, especially about abstract and long-term issues like education. Most of the time, whether or not a student values education and is willing to put in the time and effort to make the most of it is far more a function of upbringing and parental involvement than anything else. The problem with American education isn't that highly motivated students aren't given access to quality teaching, it's that average students are left to their own devices and underperform as a result.

You're a fucking idiot. The ambiguity is in the sign of i, but exp(i*pi) = exp(-1*pi) = -1 which means that no matter how you fucking complexify or algebraically complete R to get C you will never end up with exp(i*pi) - 1= 0. In fact fact follows from the fact that exp(i*n*pi) is real (you yourself used this), which means that any involution of the complex plane as a field would not do anything to it, and therefore would not change the sign to somehow give exp(i*pi) = 1.
Face it, you fucked up.

Good.
If they have to make the choice, due to limited resources, then obviously they should choose to focus on the group with a higher return on investment. Being those that are willing (and able) to learn. If someone doesn't like it he can stop being so lazy and get himself into a high-performing group.

>of the summation method
The very unusual summation method which has little to do with normal addition. And is crafted for the express purpose of evaluating infinite series.
Saying that 1+2+3... sums to any number is complete nonsense. It's infinite, and only has a numerical value under special summation methods.
Bringing it up like that is akin to me saying 1+1=4 and calling you an idiot for not knowing it, since under my unstated rules 2&3 are ugly and we skip them.

It's not normal summation. It's a divergent series.

>>154492936
Well yes, that's pretty much what I said. It's a quirk. But even so, it gives the desired result in some places in string theory.
Whether that's proof that the method has merit, or that string theory is built on shaky ground, that's up to you to decide.

Infinite sums pop up all the time in physics, and infinite sums that don't sum to anything finite under normal summation start popping up when you learn quantum field theory. The usual method is sort of just to ignore them.

>>154493034
>Whether that's proof that the method has merit, or that string theory is built on shaky ground, that's up to you to decide.
Oh, I'm not getting into that. It probably does, and it probably is. Who fucking knows.

Didn't seem to be the case. Excuse my autism.

The very unusual exponentiation method which has little to do with normal division. And is crafted for the express purpose of solving quadratic equations.

It's not normal exponentiation. It's an imaginary number.

Khanacademy if you want to be a brainlet.

If you're a real man, you start with Euler's Elements of Algebra, supplemented with Gelfand's Algebra problems.

Afterwards, you can skim and do the problems in Gelfand's other books, while using Chrystal's Algebra (actually precalc) volume 1 and 2, while further supplementing it with some problems from Loney's Plane Trigonometry.

You can now move on to a Calculus text. Spivak is kind of a simple text, but I'd recommend it for a first exposure. Do the problems from Courant's books if you want a challenge.

Fun fact: The Chrystal books and the Plane Trigonometry text were among Ramanujan's favorite books, and got they got him into math, as a kid.

Which is why I specified -basic- probability, like just looking at the distributions of different simple probabilities.
You don't need measure theory to be able to calculate expected value for exponential variables.

Depends on your major
To get a bachelors in Electrical Engineering takes the same amount of time as Anthropology

Clearly, there's unnecessary topics covered in the Anthropology degree to act as filler

Just because it's not useful doesn't mean it's unnecessary.

Credits are bullshit anyway. In my CS program, i had a Logic lecture that was worth 5 credits. You could breeze through it by reading a book that is only 100 pages long. Easiest A ever.
Then there's a communication systems class that is also worth 5 credits. But to get a full understanding of the subject, you needed to read a 1500 page long book.
How is this fair?

>>154492398
late reply, it's not a quirk of the summation method, but an extension of the results of a series of convergent infinite series into values that cause them to diverge. It's more like extrapolating a function beyond the range in which it is defined. However, for some odd reason, it works when calculating forces for the casmir effect

Its called zeta function regularization, and it can be shown that it gives equivalent results as other regularization schemes (such as dimensional or Pauli-Villars) for semisimple gauge theories, meaning that this way of looking at infinite series via the zeta function is the natural way for eliminating divergences in correlation functions.

You do realize that what you said is backwards right? And the fact that math is deductive doesn't preclude it from being a science, freshman.

It's pretty weird when calc 4 requires linear algebra 2, especially if you don't want a year long break between calc 3 and 4

>>154523294
Are you retarded? The first paragraph of the article literally proves my point. Also the fact that they are called a "something" science doesn't mean it's a science.

Science can be called science, and formal sciences could literally be called "whatever" because the two are actually not related by their definition.

Can't you technically "prove" mathematics through experiements in Physics? Like if you say in mathematics you have the pythagoras theorem that says a^2 + b^2 = c^2. that should be fairly easy to confirm through real life experimentations.

"Lies and damn statistics", anon. Every method available to a social scientist is both relatively easy to manipulate to get your desired outcome (selective sampling, question phrasing, intimidation, etc.; the standards in the field are so low for those who are promoting far left wing talking points that they can publish poorly collected data easily) and extremely incomplete. Even on the occasions that it is conducted as a science, anything useful that they can do is only a holdover until biology can answer the questions for us.
