The elements of an arithmetico-geometric sequence () are the products of the elements of an arithmetic progression (in blue) with initial value and common difference , = + (), with the corresponding elements of a geometric progression (in green) with initial value and common ratio , =, so that [4]
Only lines with n = 1 or 3 have no points (red). In mathematics, the coin problem (also referred to as the Frobenius coin problem or Frobenius problem, after the mathematician Ferdinand Frobenius) is a mathematical problem that asks for the largest monetary amount that cannot be obtained using only coins of specified denominations.

A 3-coloring of the vertices of a triangulated polygon. The blue vertices form a set of three guards, as few as is guaranteed by the art gallery theorem. However, this set is not optimal: the same polygon can be guarded by only two guards. Steve Fisk's proof is so short and elegant that it was chosen for inclusion in Proofs from THE BOOK. [4]
First, you have to understand the problem. [2] After understanding, make a plan. [3] Carry out the plan. [4] Look back on your work. [5] How could it be better? If this technique fails, Pólya advises: [6] "If you cannot solve the proposed problem, try to solve first some related problem. Could you imagine a more accessible related problem?"
In the following we solve the second-order differential equation called the hypergeometric differential equation using Frobenius method, named after Ferdinand Georg Frobenius. This is a method that uses the series solution for a differential equation, where we assume the solution takes the form of a series. This is usually the method we use for ...

9. Kansas. When it comes to expensive states for homeowners, the state of Kansas doesn’t often come to mind. But it has an average property tax rate of 1.26%.
The basic idea is to convert a constrained problem into a form such that the derivative test of an unconstrained problem can still be applied. The relationship between the gradient of the function and gradients of the constraints rather naturally leads to a reformulation of the original problem, known as the Lagrangian function or Lagrangian.
