  2. Completing the square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completing_the_square

    Given a quadratic polynomial of the form + the numbers h and k may be interpreted as the Cartesian coordinates of the vertex (or stationary point) of the parabola. That is, h is the x -coordinate of the axis of symmetry (i.e. the axis of symmetry has equation x = h ), and k is the minimum value (or maximum value, if a < 0) of the quadratic ...

  3. Quartic reciprocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartic_reciprocity

    Quartic or biquadratic reciprocity is a collection of theorems in elementary and algebraic number theory that state conditions under which the congruence x 4 ≡ p (mod q) is solvable; the word "reciprocity" comes from the form of some of these theorems, in that they relate the solvability of the congruence x 4 ≡ p (mod q) to that of x 4 ≡ q (mod p).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolab

    Later, the ability to show all of the steps explaining the calculation were added. [6] The company's emphasis gradually drifted towards focusing on providing step-by-step solutions for mathematical problems at the secondary and post-secondary levels. Symbolab relies on machine learning algorithms for both the search and solution aspects of the ...

  5. Bisection method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisection_method

    A few steps of the bisection method applied over the starting range [a 1;b 1]. The bigger red dot is the root of the function. The bigger red dot is the root of the function. In mathematics , the bisection method is a root-finding method that applies to any continuous function for which one knows two values with opposite signs.

  6. Quartic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartic_equation

    This means that has a real root greater than , and therefore that has a real root greater than . Using this root the term a + 2 y {\displaystyle {\sqrt {a+2y}}} in ( 8 ) is always real, which ensures that the two quadratic equations ( 8 ) have real coefficients.

  7. Quadratic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_equation

    Figure 4. Graphing calculator computation of one of the two roots of the quadratic equation 2x 2 + 4x − 4 = 0. Although the display shows only five significant figures of accuracy, the retrieved value of xc is 0.732050807569, accurate to twelve significant figures. A quadratic function without real root: y = (x − 5) 2 + 9.

  8. Bilinear interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilinear_interpolation

    Although each step is linear in the sampled values and in the position, the interpolation as a whole is not linear but rather quadratic in the sample location. Bilinear interpolation is one of the basic resampling techniques in computer vision and image processing , where it is also called bilinear filtering or bilinear texture mapping .

  9. Conjugate gradient method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_gradient_method

    A comparison of the convergence of gradient descent with optimal step size (in green) and conjugate vector (in red) for minimizing a quadratic function associated with a given linear system. Conjugate gradient, assuming exact arithmetic, converges in at most n steps, where n is the size of the matrix of the system (here n = 2).
