In eighth grade math the emphasis is on: (1) solving linear equations and systems of linear equations, (2) functions, and (3) geometric transforms, congruence, similarity and Pythagoras. Math Galaxy’s Eighth Grade Math covers all of the Common Core math standards for eighth grade as listed below. The concepts are presented in bite-size pieces with an unlimited supply of practice problems, with numbers chosen randomly. Illustrations are used throughout to reinforce the concepts. You can be guided through problems step-by-step or just give final answers. Certificates with scores can be emailed from final-answer mode to be printed. Topics covered are listed below along with their Common Core standard. More details on common core standards can be found at: http://www.corestandards.org/Math/ Includes Schoolwork support for teachers with Apple School Manager and iOS 11.3 or later. THE NUMBER SYSTEM (8.NS) Know that there are numbers that are not rational, and approximate them by rational numbers. Fractions as Repeating Decimals (8.NS.1) Converting Repeating Decimals to Fractions (8.NS.1) Identifying Rational Numbers (8.NS.1) Approximating Irrational Numbers (8.NS.2) EXPRESSIONS AND EQUATIONS (8.EE) Work with radicals and integer exponents.

The ODESolverIntegrator is a simple but elegant app to find the integral of ODEs. You can solve (find the integral of) nonlinear ODEs. You can reduce the higher order ODE to a set of first order ODEs. You can solve (find the integral of) linear ODEs in the form of αΊ‹ = Ax + Bu; y = Cx + Du. This app uses Runge-Kutta 4th order algorithm to solve the ODEs. Once the ODEs are solved, a beautiful interactive graph for each ODE's is created that you can share with other or save it locally. The reduced ODE's equations are presented beautifully in the math-equation format. You can compute definite integral (single, double, tripple). It uses the midpoint method. It automatically saves your hard work locally on your device so you can come back and pick up from where you left off as your great effort will not be lost. This app also has a Study page to help you learn important integration rules like, power rule, product rule, ect. This app is perfect for students learning calculus. Sharpen you brain by using this app and learning about the calculus. This is an app for all student groups. From high school to college to university students. Be creative. Enjoy the app!

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: ODE at $1.99 against Math Galaxy 8th Grade Math's $12.99. ODE also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 7 months). Math Galaxy 8th Grade Math's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
