    Good is an adjective. "did" is a verb. Use an adverb to do describe a verb. The correct sentence would be "I did well.."

    Studying Overcoming Struggles with Calculus: Is Skipping Tough Problems OK?

    Number 7 confuses me because I just don't know what to do. I get that a = 32 and then v = 32t, s = 16t^2 so that the freefall one would give a time of sqrt(OP)/4. And I know I can plug that time into the one that's falling along an angle of sin A by using the s = formula again. so OQ =...

    Thank you for your thorough response. I feel as though I recall a decent amount of geometry. There haven't been very many geometric problems but 7-9 on that same page all built off of number 7 so yes I did skip all of those. Would you recommend picking up a geometry book? You have two of the...

Actually looking at my work now the number of solved problems is higher than 70% but I think I relied on the solutions manual for the tougher problems. I'm getting out of the habit starting...

    Hi. Right now I'm working on Morris Kline's Calculus: An Intuitive and Physical Approach after having finished Saxon's Advanced Mathematics (precaclulus book). I came in feeling strong and now honestly I just feel very frustrated. I can do something like 60-70% of the problems but there seems...
