The Excelling Value of Algebra

The Excelling Value of Algebra By Elton Camp Of everything that I’ve studied on earth, Algebra proved to have the most worth. From it don’t be led astray. Later, you use it every day. Whether you become a farmer or actor, Many times expressions you will factor. And quadratic equations are such a delight. You will come to use them day and night. It’s just wonderful to be able To use a logarithmic table. To succeed in life you have no hope Unless you’re able to determine slope. Multiplying binomials is a useful skill. On a resume, it gives the boss a thrill. Knowing how perfect square trinomials to solve Can very easily be the key to getting a better job. For inequalities to know all about Has much practical value, no doubt. Exponents everybody surely does need. And to solve them with greatest speed. Strive to learn the values of X and Y. If you can’t, you might as well die. Algebra is just essential to learn If a decent living you hope to earn.

To Carolyn: Thanks for reading and commenting. Certainly share it as you wish. Most of my poems are meant to evoke just such a response. We have enough poems about death, suicide, lost love and such. I am trying to provide some comic relief. Elton

Elton, I don't think I've seen your work before but you had me laughing out loud! I don't think I've ever worked for a boss who knew what a square trinomial was. There are some subtle uses for algebra when it comes to basic reasoning, but your poem is hysterically funny. Love it! Goes to my favorites. Can I share it with some friends? Best wishes, Carolyn
