Yep, seen that one. Like many others, she also doesn't understand Terms or The Distributive Law - lumps them together under "juxtaposition" - and says of one of the calculators "this one is confusing - sometimes it obeys juxtaposition and sometimes it doesn't!" - well that's because it always obeys Terms but never The Distributive Law. So it's just one long video of her #LoudlyNotUnderstandingThings - I'll be getting to calculators later in my thread. :-)
@SmartmanApps a thing she does very differently is, she tries to find and cite primary sources. A thing I strongly recommended to you since we started our former debate. A "cause I said so" or "I know this, trust me" reasoning simply is not very convincing.
Also the change CASIO did for the north american market was very interesting because it hints at something we also superficially discussed - regionally different interpretations (even if that just means "regionally taught wrongly").
@claudius
Recently had someone claim it was taught differently in Lithuania. I looked up their syllabus, expanding brackets was there, so if true they weren't taught it then the teacher wasn't following the syllabus!
"cite primary sources".. and then she scrolls right by the relevant info!
"A thing I strongly recommended to you", and I pointed out to you that my screenshots all had the reference in the top left (though you didn't reply to that one, so maybe you missed it), such as this one...
@SmartmanApps filename of a PDF hardly counts as referencing a source. Maybe I did not look at it because I was distracted by the Drake Meme. I don't know.
@claudius
The name of the PDF is the name of the textbook, so it includes both the name of the textbook and the page number, so I don't know what you want a reference to include if that's not sufficient. The Drake meme is just to put what's in words simply (and save me from then having to quote another 5 textbooks for people who insist that the textbook doesn't support what I was saying, which yeah, happens a lot 🙄).
Your screenshot doesn't say what y is equal to. Sounds like a typo
