  2. Zisman Plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zisman_Plot

    The x-intercept lands at 39.5 dynes per centimeter (This can be calculated by setting y equal to zero and solving for x) which is less than that of liquid 2, 42.9 dynes per centimeter; therefore, a more accurate measurement of the critical liquid surface tension needed to effectively wet the surface of PC can be obtained by including liquid 2 ...

  3. Scatchard equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scatchard_equation

    By plotting n /[L] versus n, the Scatchard plot shows that the slope equals to -1/K d while the x-intercept equals the number of ligand binding sites n. Derivation [ edit ]

  4. Gaussian quadrature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_quadrature

    As the integrand is the polynomial of degree 3 (y(x) = 7x 3 – 8x 2 – 3x + 3), the 2-point Gaussian quadrature rule even returns an exact result. In numerical analysis , an n -point Gaussian quadrature rule , named after Carl Friedrich Gauss , [ 1 ] is a quadrature rule constructed to yield an exact result for polynomials of degree 2 n − 1 ...

    The y-intercept point (,) = (,) corresponds to buying only 4 kg of sausage; while the x-intercept point (,) = (,) corresponds to buying only 2 kg of salami. Note that the graph includes points with negative values of x or y , which have no meaning in terms of the original variables (unless we imagine selling meat to the butcher).

  6. Newton's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_method

    The idea is to start with an initial guess, then to approximate the function by its tangent line, and finally to compute the x-intercept of this tangent line. This x-intercept will typically be a better approximation to the original function's root than the first guess, and the method can be iterated. x n+1 is a better approximation than x n ...

    Holiday travelers setting out for what is expected to be one of the busiest travel weekends of the year are already facing delays as a severe round of storms rolls into the Southern US.

  9. Analytic geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic_geometry

    This is not always the case: the trivial equation x = x specifies the entire plane, and the equation x 2 + y 2 = 0 specifies only the single point (0, 0). In three dimensions, a single equation usually gives a surface , and a curve must be specified as the intersection of two surfaces (see below), or as a system of parametric equations . [ 18 ]
