2. Rule of replacement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_replacement

   In logic, a rule of replacement[1][2][3] is a transformation rule that may be applied to only a particular segment of an expression. A logical system may be constructed so that it uses either axioms, rules of inference, or both as transformation rules for logical expressions in the system. Whereas a rule of inference is always applied to a ...

3. Logical equivalence - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_equivalence

   Logical equivalence. In logic and mathematics, statements and are said to be logically equivalent if they have the same truth value in every model. [1] The logical equivalence of and is sometimes expressed as , , , or , depending on the notation being used. However, these symbols are also used for material equivalence, so proper interpretation ...

4. Quantifier (logic) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantifier_(logic)

   In logic, a quantifier is an operator that specifies how many individuals in the domain of discourse satisfy an open formula. For instance, the universal quantifier in the first order formula expresses that everything in the domain satisfies the property denoted by . On the other hand, the existential quantifier in the formula expresses that ...

5. Equating coefficients - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equating_coefficients

   Equating coefficients. In mathematics, the method of equating the coefficients is a way of solving a functional equation of two expressions such as polynomials for a number of unknown parameters. It relies on the fact that two expressions are identical precisely when corresponding coefficients are equal for each different type of term.

6. Logical biconditional - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_biconditional

   Logical biconditional. In logic and mathematics, the logical biconditional, also known as material biconditional or equivalence or biimplication or bientailment, is the logical connective used to conjoin two statements and to form the statement " if and only if " (often abbreviated as " iff " [1]), where is known as the antecedent, and the ...

7. Order of operations - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

   Order of operations. In mathematics and computer programming, the order of operations is a collection of rules that reflect conventions about which operations to perform first in order to evaluate a given mathematical expression. These rules are formalized with a ranking of the operations. The rank of an operation is called its precedence, and ...
