The reason this trick works every single time is elegantly simple. It has everything to do with the fact that their chosen card will always be in a pack that is third from the top.

That's because we had them take the pack containing their card, see? There's Boron, and put it on one of the piles. Then we had them put two more piles on top of that one.

So this stack is in order: pack number one, pack number two, pack number three, which contains their card, and at the bottom, pack number four. When they deal the cards out into rows, they are changing the packs into layers.

See, here we go! We've got 1, 2, 3, four cards. These are the cards that made up pack number one. Here comes pack number two; it is now becoming the second layer.

The third layer will be the components of pack number three, including Boron, their card. So when they finish and take the pack containing their card, because it is part of the third layer, it will be the third from the top, which means it will always be the third card from the left.

Meaning of Lagrange multiplier

Hey folks, in this video, I want to show you something pretty interesting about these Lagrange multipliers that we’ve been studying. So the first portion, I’m just going to kind of get the setup, which is a lot of review from what we’ve seen already. But…

Factoring using polynomial division: missing term | Algebra 2 | Khan Academy

We’re told the polynomial ( p(x) ) which is equal to this has a known factor of ( x + 6 ). Rewrite ( p(x) ) as a product of linear factors. Pause this video and see if you can have a go at that. All right, now let’s work on this together. Because they gi…

Molecular geometry (VSEPR theory) | Chemistry | Khan Academy

A molecule of carbon dioxide is pretty much straight, whereas a molecule of water is bent. Why the difference? More importantly, is there a way to predict what the shape looks like in three dimensions of any molecule? The answer is yes, by using a theory …

Proof of the derivative of cos(x) | Derivative rules | AP Calculus AB | Khan Academy

What I’m going to do in this video is make a visual argument as to why the derivative with respect to X of cosine of x is equal to sin of X. We’re going to base this argument on a previous proof we made that the derivative with respect to X of sin of X is…
