| | | |
− | ==School==
| |
− | Throughout school, I have always found math to be easy for me. A little bit about schooling.
| |
− |
| |
− | === 4th grade===
| |
− | In 4th grade, I began learning basic Algebra, along with these sheets with approximately 50 math problems. They ranged from division to multiplication to addition to subtraction. I got a best score of 49 seconds on 50 math problems. I had memorized 1-12's in addition subtraction, division, and multiplication.

| |
− | ===5th grade===
| |
− | In 5th grade I still was in a mathematics class, however we did basic Algebra again. It was still an easy year.
| |
− |
| |
− | ===6th grade===
| |
− | My school has one AP class for 6th grade math. It was Pre-Algebra. It got extremely easy, to the point I would be putting "QED" on most problems for my homework.
| |
− |
| |
− | ===7th grade===
| |
− | At the end of 6th grade, and in the summer going into 7th grade I took Introductory to Algebra online. I loved it, and had a lot of fun. In the fall, I took Introductory to Counting and Probability and Introductory to Number Theory. I had a lot of fun taking these two classes with a lot of friends.
| |
− | Currently, I am taking Algebra 2.

| |
− | ===Algebra 1===
| |
− | Over the summer of 2010, I took Algebra 1. I very much enjoyed this class. It included the quadratic formula (<math>\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}</math>), solving equations like:
| |
− | <math>2x+y=50</math>
| |
− | <math>x-y=25</math>
| |
− | Which would give us <math>x=\frac{75}{3}=23</math> and <math>y=-2</math>. It also taught me graphing and slopes (<math>\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1})</math>
| |
− |
| |
− | ===Introductory to Number Theory===
| |
− | Over the fall of 2010 I took Introductory to Number Theory and Introductory to Counting and Probability. In number theory, I learned base numbers, <math>\pmod{}</math>, and a lot of interesting number theory formulas (Ex: <math>gcd(x,y)=p_1^{min_{e_1,e_2}}*p_2^{min_{e_3,e_4}}*p_n^{min_{e_{2n-1}, e_{2n}}</math>.
| |

| |
− | ===Introductory to Counting and Probability===
| |
− | Over the fall of 2010 I took Introductory to Number Theory and Introductory to Counting and Probability. I learned Permutations, <math>\binom{N}{R}</math>, Pascals triangle, Pascals Identity, and my username (<math>(x+y)^n=\binom{n}{0}x^n+\binom{n}{1}x^{n-1}y+\binom{n}{2}x^{n-2}y^2\cdots \binom{n}{n-2}x^2y^{n-2}+\binom{n}{n-1}xy^{n-1}+\binom{n}{n}y^n)</math>
