  2. Quadratic formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_formula

    The roots of the quadratic function y = ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ x 2 − 3x + ⁠ 5 / 2 ⁠ are the places where the graph intersects the x-axis, the values x = 1 and x = 5. They can be found via the quadratic formula. In elementary algebra, the quadratic formula is a closed-form expression describing the solutions of a quadratic equation.

  3. Graph of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_of_a_function

    The graph of a function on its own does not determine the codomain. It is common [3] to use both terms function and graph of a function since even if considered the same object, they indicate viewing it from a different perspective. Graph of the function () = over the interval [−2,+3]. Also shown are the two real roots and the local minimum ...

  4. Quadratic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_function

    The graph of a real single-variable quadratic function is a parabola. If a quadratic function is equated with zero, then the result is a quadratic equation . The solutions of a quadratic equation are the zeros (or roots ) of the corresponding quadratic function, of which there can be two, one, or zero.

  5. Quadratic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_equation

    For example, let a denote a multiplicative generator of the group of units of F 4, the Galois field of order four (thus a and a + 1 are roots of x 2 + x + 1 over F 4. Because (a + 1) 2 = a, a + 1 is the unique solution of the quadratic equation x 2 + a = 0. On the other hand, the polynomial x 2 + ax + 1 is irreducible over F 4, but it splits ...

  6. Complex number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_number

    This formula distinguishes the complex number i from any real number, since the square of any (negative or positive) real number is always a non-negative real number. With this definition of multiplication and addition, familiar rules for the arithmetic of rational or real numbers continue to hold for complex numbers.

  7. Norm (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    The concept of unit circle (the set of all vectors of norm 1) is different in different norms: for the 1-norm, the unit circle is a square oriented as a diamond; for the 2-norm (Euclidean norm), it is the well-known unit circle; while for the infinity norm, it is an axis-aligned square.

  8. Log–log plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log–log_plot

    In science and engineering, a log–log graph or log–log plot is a two-dimensional graph of numerical data that uses logarithmic scales on both the horizontal and vertical axes. Power functions – relationships of the form y = a x k {\displaystyle y=ax^{k}} – appear as straight lines in a log–log graph, with the exponent corresponding to ...

  9. Laplacian matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laplacian_matrix

    where the zero and one entries of are treated as numerical, rather than logical as for simple graphs, values, explaining the difference in the results - for simple graphs, the symmetrized graph still needs to be simple with its symmetrized adjacency matrix having only logical, not numerical values, e.g., the logical sum is 1 v 1 = 1, while the ...
