educationVariationtheoryIn this paper, we report a teaching experiment regarding the theory of polynomial approximations at the university mathematics teaching in Sweden. The experiment was designed by applying Variation theory and by using the free dynamic mathematics software GeoGebra. The aim of this...
But suppose you did not recognize 288 as (2)( 144). Can you still arrive at the same solution? The answer is "yes" and the method is by completely factoring the radicand. 288 = (2)(2)(2)(2)(2)(3)(3) which is the completely factored form. Now we have ...
