Webassign Calculus 1 "Optimization Tricks"

 AKA, how to "cheat" efficiently and gratuitously, particularly necessary if you're trying to do the whole thing in the free trial period. Red numbers in Webassign mean they change them to make it harder to cheat. They also haven't changed this mechanism for 10 years, so most if not all of the possibilities have already been answered. Google the text of the problem, and put quotes around the red variables to guarantee you get the results. This is a very efficient way to complete classically slow word problems (One red number is a guaranteed copy-paste solution, two is iffy, three is unlikely. But try anyway, since that could be free credit). If you don't, then it becomes a slower, but not particularly slow, replace-the-numbers problem. There's actually quite a few ways to create simple replace-the-numbers situations: If you hit "Watch it", you can get a solution to a similar problem.  If you hit "Read it", and go to the examples section, on

MindForger advanced facts

Mindforger distinguishes between "in-note" headers and "note division" headers based entirely on whether there is a space before the header (if there is no space, it's a note divider). This is why imports get a header-derived note layout.  The editor will, regardless of whether there is a space in front, make it have one. This means that new notes cannot be created in MindForger's editor. (Without bug exploitation) If you make a custom stencil, you must then always have a space before headers, or otherwise the first header to break this rule will have everything below it appear, but nothing above. AltN + R (Refactor) has a search bar. This is very useful for quickly moving information packets around. If you place three dashes below a piece of text, without at least a line dividing the two, it will turn into a header, and be recognized in a buggy way as a note. This is useful kind of, but it creates more dashes, and a new metadata tag, every single time you r
