  2. Linear inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_inequality

    For example, [3] to draw the solution set of x + 3y < 9, one first draws the line with equation x + 3y = 9 as a dotted line, to indicate that the line is not included in the solution set since the inequality is strict. Then, pick a convenient point not on the line, such as (0,0).

  3. P versus NP problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P_versus_NP_problem

    In this case, the proof shows that a solution of Sudoku in polynomial time could also be used to complete Latin squares in polynomial time. [12] This in turn gives a solution to the problem of partitioning tri-partite graphs into triangles, [ 13 ] which could then be used to find solutions for the special case of SAT known as 3-SAT, [ 14 ...

  4. List of unsolved problems in mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unsolved_problems...

    Many mathematical problems have been stated but not yet solved. These problems come from many areas of mathematics, such as theoretical physics, computer science, algebra, analysis, combinatorics, algebraic, differential, discrete and Euclidean geometries, graph theory, group theory, model theory, number theory, set theory, Ramsey theory, dynamical systems, and partial differential equations.

  5. The Elephant Curve - Wikipedia

    The x axis of the graph shows the percentiles of the global income distribution. The y axis shows the cumulative growth rate percentage of income. [1] The main conclusion that can be drawn from the graph is that the global top 1% experienced around a 60% increase in income, whereas the income of the global middle increased 70 to 80%.

  6. Linear algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_algebra

    In three-dimensional Euclidean space, these three planes represent solutions to linear equations, and their intersection represents the set of common solutions: in this case, a unique point. The blue line is the common solution to two of these equations. Linear algebra is the branch of mathematics concerning linear equations such as:

  7. Linear equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_equation

    Conversely, every line is the set of all solutions of a linear equation. The phrase "linear equation" takes its origin in this correspondence between lines and equations: a linear equation in two variables is an equation whose solutions form a line. If b ≠ 0, the line is the graph of the function of x that

  8. Inequality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inequality_(mathematics)

    For instance, to solve the inequality 4x < 2x + 1 ≤ 3x + 2, it is not possible to isolate x in any one part of the inequality through addition or subtraction. Instead, the inequalities must be solved independently, yielding x < ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ and x ≥ −1 respectively, which can be combined into the final solution −1 ≤ x < ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠.

  9. Isoperimetric inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isoperimetric_inequality

    The isoperimetric inequality states that , and that the equality holds if and only if the curve is a circle. The area of a disk of radius R is πR 2 and the circumference of the circle is 2πR, so both sides of the inequality are equal to 4π 2 R 2 in this case.
