Wolfram Alpha Helps With Math Problems: One Step At A Time

Wolfram Alpha

It has been a long time since I took a math class. I realized that when I followed the steps on the Wolfram Alpha sample question and still couldn’t figure out how to get the answer. To be honest it was a bit of an ego check. I always thought I was pretty good at math, but I obviously didn’t retain much of what I learned. But anyway enough about how awesome I am. This looks like a great tool for parent’s that help their kids with their homework. No more math tutor for you Zion. Hop on over and take a look and remember, if you don’t use it, you lose it.

All you have to do is enter the equation you want to solve: (solve 3x + 52 = 1999) and click the Show steps button. Pretty nice if you ask me.

    To market in terms of quality rather than price, and in order to differentiate accordingly, you need to follow the standard format of the 4 P?s marketing plan. That is, Price, Product, Place and Promotion ? obviously you know the main attributes of the product, and the price, but for ?place? you should think about the type of people who are willing to pay over 4x price of competing product ? whereas the cheap option may be sold where emphasis is on cost, your product will be suited to places/distributors where the customers will be willing to pay for quality.
