Utilize our YouTube videos to see real-life examples of how algebra is used in the real-world. All of our videos are short, around a minute or less, and describe how a particular mathematical function (e.g., y = 72x + 500) is used on-the-job or in real life. Below you can find the videos sorted by career or popular culture TOPIC and by mathematical FUNCTION TYPE. We also made playlists that bring up collections of videos sorted by topic and function type.
