Go @ljohns6.bsky.social being 10% braver and running a workshop with one of her favourites attending!
I had a great time today at #MathsConf38.
I particularly enjoyed @ljohns6.bsky.social's workshop about connecting concepts.
At the end we were challenged us to come up with a question featuring the expression 𝑥² − 7𝑥 + 10.
Here's what I came up with.
