So all these willows are gonna be really nice just to make like a little bit of a jerky rack. You don't want too much bulk there 'cause the jerky needs to dry fast. It's nearly 60 degrees in southern Utah. At those temperatures, meat will spoil in as little as two hours. If Matt fails to get a supply preserved quickly, he'll lose vital rations before he knows for sure the land still has all the resources he needs to survive.

You know, I like to suspend my jerky racks up in the tree, away from other animals that might be interested in eating it. There are mountain lions that come through here a lot of times, and there are raccoons as well. So I'm gonna try to stabilize it a little bit more.

These young shoots are still very moist and flexible, so I can use those as a binding if I don't pull too tight. So far, I mean, it looks good. It feels really good to be back, but I still have a lot to do to settle back into camp. I didn't bring all the resources I need for this moment 'cause I just got back here, so I'm just making do with what I can.

This salt I'm gonna use for basically coating the meat. It's gonna help the jerky taste a little bit better and act as the preservative. Now the jerky rack's built. The main thing at this point is just to hoist it up away from animals, off the ground, safe.

This meat I brought with me will get me going for a little while. Hopefully, I can start finding other food.

Division strategies for decimal quotients

In this video, we’re going to come up with some strategies for division when the quotient isn’t a whole number, when it’s going to be a decimal. So, let’s try to compute 3 divided by 2. Pause the video and see if you can figure out what that is going to b…

Fishing Tips: How to Troll a Mark | Wicked Tuna: Outer Banks

Tuna and that market you saw right there is, in fact, a giant bluefin tuna. We’re actually trolling right now; we’re down to the Outer Banks, and we’re fishing with ballyhoos and a green stick deployed. We’ve been marking fish radically throughout the da…

Long term economic profit for monopolistic competition | Microeconomics | Khan Academy

We have already thought about the demand curves for perfect competition and monopolies and the types of economic profit that might result in. In this video, we’re going to focus on something in between, which we’ve talked about in previous videos, which i…

Resonance | Molecular and ionic compound structure and properties | AP Chemistry | Khan Academy

Let’s see if we can draw the Lewis diagram for a nitrate anion. So, a nitrate anion has one nitrogen and three oxygens, and it has a negative charge. I’ll do that in another color; it has a negative charge. So, pause this video and see if you can draw th…

Strong acid–strong base titrations | Acids and bases | AP Chemistry | Khan Academy

Hydrochloric acid is an example of a strong acid, and sodium hydroxide is an example of a strong base. Let’s say we are titrating an unknown concentration of hydrochloric acid with a known concentration of sodium hydroxide. Let’s say it’s 0.20 molar. Beca…

Introduction to vertex form of a quadratic

It might not be obvious when you look at these three equations, but they’re the exact same equation. They’ve just been algebraically manipulated. They are in different forms. This is the equation and sometimes called standard form for a quadratic. This is…
