In this video, we discuss the concept of a line of best fit and how it can be used to make predictions about data. We also highlight the importance of positive and negative residuals and how they balance each other out in determining the...

The heliocentric model of Copernicus was extremely controversial in its time, but it wasn't the end of the story. Johannes Kepler used the data of his boss, Tycho Brahe, to further corroborate it, but also show that the planets do not...

Learn more about the importance of clean drinking water in this interview with Gitanjali Rao.

"The Los Angeles Police Department is using a new tactic in their fight against crime called "predictive policing." It's a computer program that was originally developed by a team at UCLA, including mathematician Andrea Bertozzi and...

Here's a plain and simple look at life expectancy. Sure, we all are going to die. But at least we all now have a greater chance of living longer than ever before.

This video explains how to predict the product of a fraction less than one multiplied by a whole number using visual representations. It uses examples of comparing the total length of long jumps to demonstrate the concept.

In this video, the teacher explains how to find lines of fit and use them to make predictions based on data. The lesson includes examples and tips for drawing the best fit line and finding the slope and Y-intercept of the line. Students...

A recent study analyzed 130,000 religious leaders in the United States, mostly from Christian and Jewish denominations. The researchers compared their voting registration with their denominations, trying to find trends in each...

Learn how to make predictions using the equation for a line of best fit. Review examples of scatter plots to demonstrate how to find the slope and Y intercept, and then use these values to make predictions. This video also highlights the...

In this video, the teacher explains how to determine the percent rate of change using exponential models. They review compound interest and linear functions, and then go on to discuss exponential growth and depreciation.

We take a trip to the Santa Cruz Police Department, where officers are using a new, futuristic system called “PredPol” to analyze data, apply algorithms, and determine where crimes might happen in the future. It's cool technology, but...

In this video you will see how this list can help us predict if a chemical reaction will proceed and how to name the products which shows displacement reactions.

In this video, students learn about the importance of representative samples in making accurate predictions about a population. They are introduced to the concepts of biased and unbiased sampling methods and given examples to understand...

In this video I show you the business cycle and talk about how economists predict recessions. It turns out that they aren’t even that good at it. Remember, if someone tells you that they know for sure that there is going to be a...

Multiply decimals to hundredths using the traditional method.

In episode 43, Charlie and Jordan discuss a travel woe for the frequent jet setter: long runway queues times. Engineers at MIT have developed a queuing model that predicts how long a plane will wait before takeoff. This model may help...

Describes the working principle of a One-vs-One (OvO) heuristic method.

We demonstrate this process through examples of predicting a baby's weight based on age, estimating study time based on desired grades, and predicting test scores based on study time. We emphasizes that predictions are estimates and...

How did the field of quantum mechanics come about in the first place? The Rayleigh-Jeans catastrophe, also known as the ultraviolet catastrophe was a prediction by the Rayleigh-Jeans law that a blackbody would radiate infinite amounts of...

In this video, the teacher explains how to determine which line provides a better fit to a scatterplot by drawing residuals. Residuals represent the difference between the actual values and the predicted values by the line of best fit.

The video provides a detailed explanation of how to prepare a pure dry sample of an insoluble salt, specifically lead sulfate. The speaker first explains the solubility rules that determine whether a salt is soluble or not. Then, he goes...

So You Have an Idea part 1/2: The video is a compilation of interviews with successful entrepreneurs discussing the origins of their business ideas and how they identified an opportunity in the marketplace. They share various approaches...

Describes the working principle of a simple linear regression algorithm with an example.

Humans have been observing weather since ancient times. This video provides an overview of weather forecasting, highlighting its importance in various aspects of our daily lives. It explains how weather is predicted using advanced...
