Why You Can't Solve Every Equation (and Why That's Awesome)

Описание к видео Why You Can't Solve Every Equation (and Why That's Awesome)

Solving polynomial equations by radicals impossible (and also, mostly useless!). However, some amusing math arises from this problem. Check out this quick intro, and subscribe for future videos on this topic
