Math.... UGH!

Every day, I log on to my computer and struggle through yet another lesson in math. It's truly humbling to think that what you know (or knew, in my case!) of math barely covers any of what's in the lessons!

It's been a long time since I had to use words like exponents, integers, additive inverse and equation. And since I've started, I've begun to think they've changed things in the past 30 years. Didn't math homework say "solve the equation" or something like that ? Now they say "evaluate". Well, to me evaluate means "check this out, see what you think.. is it good? bad? indifferent?" LOL However, when asked to evaluate 3x+9=18 I typed in "looks good" and got a big red INCORRECT!! hahaha Its definitely a struggle for me to relearn some of the new terms. But if I want the grade, I hafta do it their way.

So that's what I'm doing!

Hugs to everyone!!!
