  2. Equation solving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_solving

    One particular solution is x = 0, y = 0, z = 0. Two other solutions are x = 3, y = 6, z = 1, and x = 8, y = 9, z = 2. There is a unique plane in three-dimensional space which passes through the three points with these coordinates, and this plane is the set of all points whose coordinates are solutions of the equation.

  3. Quartic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartic_equation

    In either case the full quartic can then be divided by the factor (x − 1) or (x + 1) respectively yielding a new cubic polynomial, which can be solved to find the quartic's other roots. If a 1 = a 0 k , {\displaystyle \ a_{1}=a_{0}k\ ,} a 2 = 0 {\displaystyle \ a_{2}=0\ } and a 4 = a 3 k , {\displaystyle \ a_{4}=a_{3}k\ ,} then x = − k ...

  4. Quadratic formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_formula

    The roots of the quadratic function y = ⁠ 1 / 2x 2 − 3x + ⁠ 5 / 2 ⁠ are the places where the graph intersects the x-axis, the values x = 1 and x = 5. They can be found via the quadratic formula. In elementary algebra, the quadratic formula is a closed-form expression describing the solutions of a quadratic equation.

  5. Sextic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sextic_equation

    Graph of a sextic function, with 6 real roots (crossings of the x axis) and 5 critical points. Depending on the number and vertical locations of minima and maxima, the sextic could have 6, 4, 2, or no real roots. The number of complex roots equals 6 minus the number of real roots. In algebra, a sextic (or hexic) polynomial is a polynomial of ...

  6. Quadratic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_equation

    Because (a + 1) 2 = a, a + 1 is the unique solution of the quadratic equation x 2 + a = 0. On the other hand, the polynomial x 2 + ax + 1 is irreducible over F 4, but it splits over F 16, where it has the two roots ab and ab + a, where b is a root of x 2 + x + a in F 16. This is a special case of Artin–Schreier theory.

  7. Quartic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartic_function

    The four roots of the depressed quartic x 4 + px 2 + qx + r = 0 may also be expressed as the x coordinates of the intersections of the two quadratic equations y 2 + py + qx + r = 0 and y − x 2 = 0 i.e., using the substitution y = x 2 that two quadratics intersect in four points is an instance of Bézout's theorem.

  8. Clairaut's equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clairaut's_equation

    defines only one solution (), the so-called singular solution, whose graph is the envelope of the graphs of the general solutions. The singular solution is usually represented using parametric notation, as ((), ()), where = /.

  9. System of polynomial equations - Wikipedia

    where h is a univariate polynomial in x 0 of degree D and g 0, ..., g n are univariate polynomials in x 0 of degree less than D. Given a zero-dimensional polynomial system over the rational numbers, the RUR has the following properties. All but a finite number linear combinations of the variables are separating variables.
