W1_L2: Numbers,variables,functions & equations

Welcome to Week 1 Lecture 2 of the course "Maths for Electronics 1" by Profs. Andrew Thangaraj and Ramkrishna Pasumarthy. Full Course: https://study.iitm.ac.in/es/course_pages/MA1101.html Video Overview This lecture introduces the fundamental role of numbers, variables, functions, and equations in mathematical problem-solving. We’ll explore how these concepts arise naturally in everyday scenarios like shopping, farming, and banking. Through practical examples, you’ll learn how to identify numerical quantities, assign variables, establish basic relationships, and form equations to tackle various problems. We’ll touch upon linear, quadratic, and exponential equations, setting the stage for more advanced techniques later in the course.
