When was the last time you had to factor a polynomial?

[yvr girl]

Or use an imaginary number? Logarithm?

I think as long as you remember BODMAS you will be ok.

1. Hmm not since at least 8 years ago .

[WindRavenX]

2. last time I took Calculus

Which was last year. Still need another semester to fulfill my biology degree requirement :cry: :cry: :cry:

[physioex]

3. LOL Come now calculus can be fun....

:)

[WindRavenX]

4. oh it is!

I love learning about it!
I just don't do well on tests...

[yvr girl]

I just remember factoring polynomials up the ying yang

I have never had occasion to do so outside of school. Addition - yes. Subtraction - yes. Multiplication, division, fractions, percent, geometry, rounding, finding the average or the mean. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

Ohh belated welcome to DU..... :hi:

5. Just a few weeks ago

I'm an electrical engineering major so we use that stuff a lot. In fact imaginary numbers are very important for EE people, same goes with logarithms and other stuff.

Granted I have this calculator that takes care of everything - the TI 89. No science or engineering major should go without it.

6. 7 years ago, I loved differential equations

and the calculation of electro magnetic fields...

but during the last years, I did not use if and forgot much of it...

20. The only math course I ever really loved was Discrete Math

All matrices ... all fun!

7. I minored in Math in college.

All of my classes were in Calculus and Differential Equations. It's pretty easy, most of the time..

8. We're not allowed to have sex threads here at DU.

Maybe you didn't get the memo?

:evilgrin:

[yvr girl]

10. What kind of math classes did you have?

Mine were not nearly so adventuress.

[Bunny]

13. Tee Hee!

:evilgrin:

[Guy Fawkes]

11. Not since July 30th

which is when my math class ended.

12. The last time for me was in 1972

I still got it wrong.

Geometry!

What does a mermaid wear?

Algebra!

19. lol

Math jokes rock!

:D

Science jokes too...

I used to drive a Heisenberg, but every time I looked at the speedometer I got lost!

21. .

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! :7

[eyesroll]

22. Excellent.

:thumbsup:

17. 1988. And no I don't remember how.

Never did get logarithms.
