/sci/ - Science & Math

I can't comprehend this shit I'm being torn apart lisa. I'm trying to learn derivatives, and it's all too fucking fast. I'm on khan academy and their method of teaching it is fucked. they go from 0-9535353*speed of light and I can't understand it. their exercise is undecodable my head is about to splode. HALP. for 3 weeks now I've tried to understand but I feel and probably am retarded. I feel like a fucking 3 year old, I feel so demoralized in class. I feel snapping someone's neck.

I am given this shit. find the slope of y y = 1x^3 -2x^2 +3x + 2

when x = 1

I have no idea, what the fuck, the fuck, this means. It does not want the derivative of all that shit. it wants the tangent. my head hurts.

That's it guys, i quit.
