For example, the equation x + y = 2x – 1 is solved for the unknown x by the expression x = y + 1, because substituting y + 1 for x in the equation results in (y + 1) + y = 2(y + 1) – 1, a true statement. It is also possible to take the variable y to be the unknown, and then the equation is solved by y = x – 1.
The equations 3x + 2y = 6 and 3x + 2y = 12 are inconsistent. A linear system is inconsistent if it has no solution, and otherwise, it is said to be consistent. [7] When the system is inconsistent, it is possible to derive a contradiction from the equations, that may always be rewritten as the statement 0 = 1. For example, the equations
For example, the second-order equation y′′ = −y can be rewritten as two first-order equations: y′ = z and z′ = −y. In this section, we describe numerical methods for IVPs, and remark that boundary value problems (BVPs) require a different set of tools. In a BVP, one defines values, or components of the solution y at more than one ...
Numerov's method (also called Cowell's method) is a numerical method to solve ordinary differential equations of second order in which the first-order term does not appear. It is a fourth-order linear multistep method. The method is implicit, but can be made explicit if the differential equation is linear.
Iterative methods such as Newton's method are often used to solve the implicit formula. Sometimes an explicit multistep method is used to "predict" the value of y n + s {\displaystyle y_{n+s}} . That value is then used in an implicit formula to "correct" the value.
Equivalent statement 2: x n + y n = z n, where integer n ≥ 3, has no non-trivial solutions x, y, z ∈ Q. This is because the exponents of x , y , and z are equal (to n ), so if there is a solution in Q , then it can be multiplied through by an appropriate common denominator to get a solution in Z , and hence in N .

Given two different points (x 1, y 1) and (x 2, y 2), there is exactly one line that passes through them. There are several ways to write a linear equation of this line. If x 1 ≠ x 2, the slope of the line is . Thus, a point-slope form is [3]
