Details about me

Hi everyone! My name is Justin Stevens. I am currently a seventh grader living in Prospect Kentucky. I am 12 years old currently, and was born April 30th/1998.

School

Throughout school, I have always found math to be easy for me. A little bit about schooling.

4th grade

In 4th grade, I began learning basic Algebra, along with these sheets with approximately 50 math problems. They ranged from division to multiplication to addition to subtraction. I got a best score of 49 seconds on 50 math problems. I had memorized 1-12's in addition subtraction, division, and multiplication.

5th grade

In 5th grade I still was in a mathematics class, however we did basic Algebra again. It was still an easy year.

6th grade

My school has one AP class for 6th grade math. It was Pre-Algebra. It got extremely easy, to the point I would be putting "QED" on most problems for my homework.

7th grade

At the end of 6th grade, and in the summer going into 7th grade I took Introductory to Algebra online. I loved it, and had a lot of fun. In the fall, I took Introductory to Counting and Probability and Introductory to Number Theory. I had a lot of fun taking these two classes with a lot of friends. Currently, I am taking Algebra 2.

AoPS classes

Algebra 1

Over the summer of 2010, I took Algebra 1. I very much enjoyed this class. It included the quadratic formula ($\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$), solving equations like: $2x+y=50$ $x-y=25$ Which would give us $x=\frac{75}{3}=23$ and $y=-2$. It also taught me graphing and slopes ($\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1})$

Introductory to Number Theory

Over the fall of 2010 I took Introductory to Number Theory and Introductory to Counting and Probability. In number theory, I learned base numbers, $\pmod{}$, and a lot of interesting number theory formulas (Ex: $gcd(x,y)=p_1^{min_{e_1,e_2}}*p_2^{min_{e_3,e_4}}*p_n^{min_{e_{2n-1}, e_{2n}}$ (Error compiling LaTeX. Unknown error_msg).

Introductory to Counting and Probability

Over the fall of 2010 I took Introductory to Number Theory and Introductory to Counting and Probability. I learned Permutations, $\binom{N}{R}$, Pascals triangle, Pascals Identity, and my username ($(x+y)^n=\binom{n}{0}x^n+\binom{n}{1}x^{n-1}y+\binom{n}{2}x^{n-2}y^2\cdots \binom{n}{n-2}x^2y^{n-2}+\binom{n}{n-1}xy^{n-1}+\binom{n}{n}y^n)$
