Hi, I’m Krista! I make math courses to keep you from banging your head against the wall. ;)
Math class was always so frustrating for me. I’d go to a class, spend hours on homework, and three days later have an “Ah-ha!” moment about how the problems worked that could have slashed my homework time in half. I’d think, “WHY didn’t my teacher just tell me this in the first place?!”
So I started tutoring to keep other people out of the same aggravating, time-sucking cycle. Since then, I’ve recorded tons of videos and written out cheat-sheet style notes and formula sheets to help every math student-from basic middle school classes to advanced college calculus-figure out what’s going on, understand the important concepts, and pass their classes, once and for all.

    Another great video! One comment on optimization problems found in textbooks: Setting up the equation to optimize is sometimes the hardest part, and the books frequently do a poor job explaining the "setup". I ran across a Revenue optimization problem that was a little confusing as to where the p(x) (i.e. the specific equation that expressed p(x)) came from; But you've done a great job of setting everything up in this demo! Thank you again.

    if the y-value for both endpoints is equal, then you have to call both of them local maxima. only if there is just one point that is higher than any other can you call it a global maximum. hope that helps! :)

    I only plugged them in for x. Remember that the left-hand side of the equation is y(x), so when I plugged them in it looked like y(-2). On the right-hand side, I plugged them in wherever I had an x variable. Therefore, the result for each point was something like y=-1. Hope that helps! :)
