How long do you have to do the math course and what level is "grade 12 math". Seems like one wouldn't really need much more than 3rd or 4th grade math to do pastry ingredient calculations

Nowadays, aren't 12 grade math and 3rd or 4th grade math the same thing?
that can be taken either of 2 ways I suppose...

I guess they can be considered the same but when you are someone like me all the numbers and shapes AND LETTERS!!(WHAT MONSTER PUT LETTERS IN MATH??) Really hit you hard in the short attention span. I cant sit still and focus for long periods of time and having to calculate stuff while losing focus just makes me frustrated.

Btw @Bruce probably not a good idea to get on bays bad side esspecially when talk of animal castration comes up

And does anyone on here know how to explain trigonometry in a way my artistic mind can atually understand? Because currently this feels like hell on earth

AND LETTERS!!(WHAT MONSTER PUT LETTERS IN MATH??)

Totally feel your pain!

I am no help, I flunked out at math. x+y=4Qx/PxL-S=?????? WTH?

When I owned a business and could actually SEE how math was used, I did well. But NONE of the IRS tax forms EVER had a jumble of letters in it. Just numbers, hard crunching numbers. NONE of the employee's pay checks ever had letters on them either, just their name and numbers. Can't pay the light bill with a jumble of letters, just numbers.

I really struggled at first. The state forms had this nice 800 number on it, so I called and got this nice man named Bob. Do you know, Bob got to know my voice and called my name after I said Hello?

I could really use a bob right about now i need help knowing what SOH CAH TOA to use when calculating the missing number of a triangle damn i wish my friends were up right now but they are busy stu'DYING' (extra emphasis on the dying part )for exams so i dont want to bug them . There is a reasom why i took lifestyle math and not ****ing academic math

You'll get it. You'll get it because YOU HAVE TO. You will learn it and put down the right answers and pass the tests.

and you will never use this crap again because it does not pertain to real life...…..

My point EXACTLY!! WHEN AM I GONNA USE THIS CRAP IN REAL LIFE?? Anyway i will not fail this.... i need to pass this jist once so i dont have to do it again
Me -><- SOH CAH TOA and trigonometry
