How To: Understand the central limit theorem

Central limit theorum is easily one of the most fundamental and profound concepts in statistics and perhaps in mathematics as a whole. In probability theory, the central limit theorum (CLT) states conditions under which the mean of a suffiently large number of independent random large variables (each with finite means and variance) will be normally distributed, approximately. Huh? If you are having trouble understanding central limit theorum and need help trying to solve it, check out this tu...

How To: Find Z with the Z-Score formula

In this video tutorial the instructor shows how to find Z with the Z-Score formula. He uses a sample problem to show how to find this. He tells you the formula for z which is a real simple formula. Now he notes down the formula on the board and brings in the example problem with sample values. He substitutes the values in the z-score formula and solves it finding out the z value. This video shows how to find z using the z-score formula and also demonstrates the formula using a simple example.

How To: Find the circumference of a circle in Geometry

In this tutorial the author shows how to find the circumference of a circle. He says that the circumference of a circle can be calculated by using the formula circumference C = 2 * Pi * R, where R is the radius of the circle. He shows how to solve these kind of problems using some examples and calculating the circumference by substituting the value of radius in the formula. This video gives a good introduction on how to find the circumference of a circle.

How To: Use the TOA formula in trigonometry

The video is a tutorial in trigonometry. The teacher teaches that the tangent or the tan of an angle is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side of a right angled triangle. If one side and one angle is given then the value of the unknown side can be found by solving the equation tan of angle is equal to opposite upon adjacent side. If the angle is to be found then the tan inverse of the value is seen in the calculator.

How To: Divide similar radicals

While dividing the radicals, the numerator and the denominator must be combined into a single term, for example if we want to divide square root of 3 by square root of seven we need to combine the numerator and denominator into a single factor that is square root of 3/7, then we can divide 3/7 which is 0.4285, and square root of 0.4285 is 0.654 which is the final answer.

How To: Apply the 5th Law of Exponents

In this video the tutor explains the 5th Law of Exponents. He reminds the viewer that when polynomials are multiplied, their exponents get added. Now he states that when a polynomial is raised to another power, the exponents are multiplied instead of adding. The 5th Law of Exponents states that when a polynomial with a power 'a' is raised to a power 'b', then the final power of the exponents is the value of the product of the exponents, i.e., a * b. This video states the 5th Law of Exponents ...

How To: Find the vertical asymptotes of rational functions

To find a vertical asymptote, you are trying to find values of x that produce 0 in the denominator but not in the numerator. If 0/0 occurs, that means you have a "hole" in the graph. A vertical asymptote is a place in the graph of infinite discontinuity, where the graph spikes off to positive or negative infinity. To find the vertical asymptote, set the denominator equal to zero and solve for x. Check that the values also do not give a zero in the nominator. If the values work, you have found...

How To: Write a slope-intercept equation perpendicular to line

In this tutorial the instructor shows how to write a Slope-intercept equation that is perpendicular to a line and passes through a point. He shows how to do this by solving an example with sample values. He says that the slope of a line perpendicular to the original line is the negative inverse of the slope of original line. Now he writes down the slope value in the general equation y = mx + c, and by substituting the sample value in the equation he obtains the value of the Y-intercept c, thu...

How To: Shade a system of inequalities

In this video the instructor shows how to shade a system of inequalities. He says that shading a system of inequalities is similar to shading a single inequality but in the former case you tend to shade more than one inequality in the same graph. He shows how to do that using an example set of inequalities and plots the lines on the graph. He uses dotted lines for lesser than or greater than inequalities and uses straight lines for inequalities which contains the equal to symbol. Now he shade...

How To: Freeze ginger

Love the taste of fresh ginger, but hate throwing out dry, moldy roots? Solve the problem by storing it in the freezer. Whenever you have a hankering for fresh ginger, just grate the still-frozen root into your favorite recipes. Ginger will lose some of its potency in the freezer, but not enough to make a significant difference. When previously frozen ginger thaws completely it develops a sodden texture, so once frozen it's best to keep it that way. Frozen ginger is also a little bit easier t...
