  2. Equation solving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_solving

    In the simple case of a function of one variable, say, h(x), we can solve an equation of the form h(x) = c for some constant c by considering what is known as the inverse function of h. Given a function h : A → B, the inverse function, denoted h −1 and defined as h −1 : B → A, is a function such that

    A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula.

    A statement such as that predicate P is satisfied by arbitrarily large values, can be expressed in more formal notation by ∀x : ∃y ≥ x : P(y). See also frequently. The statement that quantity f(x) depending on x "can be made" arbitrarily large, corresponds to ∀y : ∃x : f(x) ≥ y. arbitrary A shorthand for the universal quantifier. An ...

    If an airplane's altitude at time t is a(t), and the air pressure at altitude x is p(x), then (p ∘ a)(t) is the pressure around the plane at time t. Function defined on finite sets which change the order of their elements such as permutations can be composed on the same set, this being composition of permutations.

    H(0) = ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ is often used since the graph then has rotational symmetry; put another way, H − ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ is then an odd function. In this case the following relation with the sign function holds for all x: () = (+ ⁡). Also, H(x) + H(-x) = 1 for all x.

    This property, also known as associativity of multiplication, guarantees the result does not depend on the sequence of multiplications; therefore, a specification of the sequence can be omitted. The subtraction operation is non-associative; despite that, there is a convention that a − b − c {\displaystyle a-b-c} is shorthand for ( a − b ...
