This video discusses Dead Drop Devices and how to use them to transfer messages. The video starts by explaining what Dead Drop Devices are. They are basically common everyday objects that are hollow inside to store a message. The video shows a large lag bolt and a spike that are actually Dead Drops. The head of the dead drop bolt screws off and reveals a hollow cylinder used to store something valuable. The second object is a spike that is supposed to be shoved into the ground so that it will...
To simplify a complex fraction, turn it into one fraction on the top divided into a fraction on the bottom. Once this is complete, you will turn the division into the two into a multiple by the reciprocal, factor, and then cancel. To make a division, find the lowest common denominator of both the top and the bottom. Once you get this division equation, look carefully at the equations. If something can be easily canceled, go ahead and cancel it out at this time. If you cannot cancel anything a...
This videos explains how one can easily find the parallel line to a given mathematical equation. He starts by explaining what it means for two lines to be parallel mathematically speaking. Defining two lines, then comparing the slope of both lines you can mathematically determine that they are in fact parallel. He then moves to common math problems found on tests where you are given a point and a linear equation. He then forms a T-table with one column being line one and line two and illustra...
In this video, the instructor shows how to find the equation of a circle given its center point and a tangent line to it. To do this, take a graph and plot the given point and the tangent on that graph. Now, from the center of the circle, measure the perpendicular distance to the tangent line. This gives us the radius of the circle. Using the center point and the radius, you can find the equation of the circle using the general circle formula (x-h)*(x-h) + (y-k)*(y-k) = r*r, where (h,k) is th...
In this video the instructor shows how to divide rational expressions. To divide rational expressions follow this simple four step approach. In the fist step change the division to multiplication by flipping the second fraction. Now the original division simplifies to multiplication. In the second step factor the terms of numerators and denominators in the two fractions. In the third step cancel the common terms in the numerator and the denominator. Now finally in the fourth step multiply all...
This video demonstrates how to solve a linear function with rational coefficients by multiplying by the reciprocal of the coefficient. The reciprocal is just a fancy way of saying the numerator and denominator are swapped. Two sample problems are solved using this method. Multiplying each side of the equation by the reciprocal of the rational coefficient of the variable 'x' is an allowed operation, but only because both sides are multiplies by the the same amount. The teacher then demonstrate...
The video describes the basic process of multiplying two rational expressions. The problem illustrated in this video involved multiplying rational expressions of monomial terms with integer coefficients. As with the other example problems, we follow the steps of: factoring, canceling, and multiplying. Because these terms are monomials, no factoring is required (but we still state it as a step for similarity to solving other problems). We then find the greatest common divisor for both terms to...

Pierre-Benoit Heriaud explains the various meanings of the French word bien. Firstly, there is one obvious meaning the common "good" or "acceptable". However, one can also use it in sentences such as "Il fait bien froid" to present the current status of the weather as being excessive in one way. In this case, it can easily be replaced with the adverb "vraiment", not losing any bit in meaning. Lastly, the word "embete" might also be a trap in that it usually means annoyed, but can be associate...

Just follow a few steps to simplify algebra with the minus one trick. First step is to take two algebraic equations with having numerator and denominator algebraic equations. Second step is to divide the denominator with numerator. For example, it have like -c/c, it gives like answer as -1, but we have another type like (c-a)/(a-c) - to solve these types of steps, like multiply numerator with minus(-), it gives the common the minus and -(a-c)/(a-c), then it gives -1 as a answer.
Simonc1973 teaches you how to work out the circumference of a circle. You start with a circle and draw a line across the circle. That's called the diameter. You multiply the diameter with Pi, which is 3.141. The video is even more amazing being taught by Harry Chapple, a 4 year old MENSA member, who is a maths child genius. He simply takes the ruler, measures the diameter and then calculates the result of multiplying it by Pi's value. The common value for Pi is 3.14. For very accurate results...

One can learn, from watching this video, how to multiply and divide fractions. Prof. Alexander gives a discourse on multiplication and division of fractions in a simple, easy way. For multiplication, one should first look for highest common factor in the numerator of one fraction and the denominator of the other, and vice versa, and if found, carry out the reduction by that factor. Then the numerator of one fraction is multiplied by that of the other fraction, the same operation is carried ou...

The drum support rollers are usually in the same spot on every dryer, no matter the brand. They will be below the drum. In order to remove the rollers, you need to open the dryer's cabinet and remove the drum. Perhaps you will notice that the left roller is more worn out than the right one. This is a common occurrence, but you need to replace both at the same time. Be sure to remove the nut before you remove the roller. Don't use more than one drop of oil on the hub as too much oil will aid t...
Watch this video to learn how to multiply fractions by fractions. First multiply the top numbers together. For example, if you have 3/5 * 4/7, multiply 3 * 4 and put your product on top of the fraction you will get as a product. Next, multiply the bottom numbers together and put them on the bottom of your resulting fraction. Next see if you can reduce your product to simplify it. You could also do the reducing step first by canceling out any common factors in the numerators and denominators o...
