Biography

I spent most of my undergraduate years at school as a math tutor in many subjects and graduated with a degree in mathematics. I played baseball in college and I love rooting for the Minnesota Twins. My enjoyment in math stems from my curiosity in understanding how things work and this leads to my next hobby of rollercoasters and all the fun that comes with them. I am currently working on my master's degree from the exact same university I received my undergraduate degree at and love to help students continue to grow and develop their skills in the wonderful subjects of math.

Algebra and Trigonometry

In Problems $59-62,$ find the length of each side of the triangle determined by the three points $P_{1}, P_{2},$ and $P_{3}$. State whether the triangle is an isosceles triangle, a right triangle, neither of these, or both. (An isosceles triangle is one in which at least two of the sides are of equal length.)
$$P_{1}=(7,2) ; \quad P_{2}=(-4,0) ; \quad P_{3}=(4,6)$$

Distance between Moving Objects A Ford Focus and a Freightliner truck leave an intersection at the same time. The Focus heads east at an average speed of 30 miles per hour, while the truck heads south at an average speed of 40 miles per hour. Find an expression for their distance apart $d$ (in miles) at the end of $t$ hours.

Problems 73-76 are based on material learned earlier in the course. The purpose of these problems is to keep the material fresh in your mind so that you are better prepared for the final exam.
Solve the inequality $5(x-3)+2 x \geq 6(2 x-3)-7$ Express the solution using interval notation. Graph the solution set.

Suppose that a and b are integers, a ≡ 4 (mod 13), and b ≡ 9 (mod 13). Find the integer c with 0 ≤ c ≤ 12 such that:
a) c ≡ 9a (mod 13).
b) c ≡ 11b (mod 13).
c) c ≡ a + b (mod 13).
d) c ≡ a^2 + b^2 (mod 13).
e) c ≡ a^3 − b^3 (mod 13).

Precalculus

For each year t, the number of trees in Forest A is represented by the function A(t) = 93(1.025)^t. In a neighboring forest, the number of trees in Forest B is represented by the function B(t) = 81(1.029)^t. Assuming the population growth models continue to represent the growth of the forests, which forest will have a greater number of trees after 15 years? By how many?

Six students A, B, C, D, E, and F went to the library once last
Monday night. One of them stole a book. Each student is questioned
about whom they saw at the library, and all tell the truth except
the thief (it is possible that one student saw another without in
turn being seen, but we assume that if one student sees another an
arc is drawn with arrow leaving the student who saw the other).
That is, A saw B and E; B saw A and F; C saw D and F; D saw A and
F; E saw B and C and F saw C and E. Draw a directed graph
illustrating the given scenario. If the least number of occurrences
being seen at the library makes a person the most probable thief,
then who is the thief?

One cubic foot holds 7.48 gallons of water, and 1 gallon of water weighs 8.33 pounds. How much does 7 cubic feet of water weigh in pounds? In tons?
Click the icon to view the USCS measurements.
The weight in pounds is approximately lb.
(Round to the nearest tenth as needed.)
The weight in tons is approximately ton(s).
(Round to the nearest hundredth as needed.)

The yield of strawberry plants depends on the amount of fertilizer fed to the plants. Agricultural research shows that an acre of strawberry plants will yield 480 pounds of strawberries when 60 cubic feet of fertilizer are applied. If 80 cubic feet of fertilizer are applied, the yield will be 640 pounds of strawberries. Use linear interpolation to estimate the yield if 73 cubic feet of fertilizer are applied.

When the rate of inflation is 2 1/2% per year and the average price of a car is currently $21,000, the average price after n years is given by the formula below: P_n = $21,000(1.025)^n. Compute the average prices for the next 5 years. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) P1 = $
