  2. Algebraic operation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_operation

    For example, 3 × x 2 is written as 3x 2, and 2 × x × y is written as 2xy. [5] Sometimes, multiplication symbols are replaced with either a dot or center-dot, so that x × y is written as either x. y or x · y.

  3. Cube (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube_(algebra)

    y = x 3 for values of 1 ≤ x ≤ 25.. In arithmetic and algebra, the cube of a number n is its third power, that is, the result of multiplying three instances of n together. The cube of a number or any other mathematical expression is denoted by a superscript 3, for example 2 3 = 8 or (x + 1) 3.

  4. Monty Hall problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monty_Hall_problem

    If the car is behind door 1, the host can open either door 2 or door 3, so the probability that the car is behind door 1 and the host opens door 3 is ⁠ 1 / 3× ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ = ⁠ 1 / 6 ⁠. If the car is behind door 2 – with the player having picked door 1 – the host must open door 3, such the probability that the car is behind door ...

  5. Cubic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_equation

    If only one root, say r 1, is real, then r 2 and r 3 are complex conjugates, which implies that r 2 – r 3 is a purely imaginary number, and thus that (r 2 – r 3) 2 is real and negative. On the other hand, r 1 – r 2 and r 1 – r 3 are complex conjugates, and their product is real and positive. [ 23 ]

    Here, 2 is being multiplied by 3 using scaling, giving 6 as a result. Animation for the multiplication 2 × 3 = 6 4 × 5 = 20. The large rectangle is made up of 20 squares, each 1 unit by 1 unit. Area of a cloth 4.5m × 2.5m = 11.25m 2; 4 ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ × 2 ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ = 11 ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠

  7. Proof of Fermat's Last Theorem for specific exponents

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_of_Fermat's_Last...

    Since 3 3 divides r 3 we have that 3 divides r, so (⁠ r / 3 ⁠) 3 is an integer that equals 2f(e + f)(e − f). Since e and f are coprime, so are the three factors 2f, e + f, and e − f; therefore, they are each the cube of smaller integers, k, l, and m. −2f = k 3 e + f = l 3 f − e = m 3. which yields a smaller solution k 3 + l 3 + m 3 = 0.

    To denote a sequence of moves on the 3×3×3 Rubik's Cube, this article uses "Singmaster notation", [4] which was developed by David Singmaster. The following are standard moves, which do not move centre cubies of any face to another location:

  9. Mathematics of Sudoku - Wikipedia

    ⌈ x/3 ⌉ = ⌈ x′/3 ⌉ and ⌈ y/3 ⌉ = ⌈ y′/3 ⌉ (same 3×3 cell) The puzzle is then completed by assigning an integer between 1 and 9 to each vertex, in such a way that vertices that are joined by an edge do not have the same integer assigned to them. A Sudoku solution grid is also a Latin square. [9]
