  2. System of polynomial equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_polynomial_equations

    A system of polynomial equations (sometimes simply a polynomial system) is a set of simultaneous equations f1 = 0, ..., fh = 0 where the fi are polynomials in several variables, say x1, ..., xn, over some field k. A solution of a polynomial system is a set of values for the xi s which belong to some algebraically closed field extension K of k ...

  3. Equation solving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_solving

    Solving an equation symbolically means that expressions can be used for representing the solutions. For example, the equation x + y = 2x – 1 is solved for the unknown x by the expression x = y + 1, because substituting y + 1 for x in the equation results in (y + 1) + y = 2 (y + 1) – 1, a true statement. It is also possible to take the ...

  4. Runge–Kutta methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runge–Kutta_methods

    This can be contrasted with implicit linear multistep methods (the other big family of methods for ODEs): an implicit s-step linear multistep method needs to solve a system of algebraic equations with only m components, so the size of the system does not increase as the number of steps increases.

  5. System of linear equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_linear_equations

    The intersection point is the solution. In mathematics, a system of linear equations (or linear system) is a collection of two or more linear equations involving the same variables. [1][2] For example, is a system of three equations in the three variables x, y, z. A solution to a linear system is an assignment of values to the variables such ...

  6. Quartic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartic_equation

    The general form of a quartic equation is. Graph of a polynomial function of degree 4, with its 4 roots and 3 critical points. where a ≠ 0. The quartic is the highest order polynomial equation that can be solved by radicals in the general case (i.e., one in which the coefficients can take any value).

  7. Quartic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartic_function

    A quartic equation, or equation of the fourth degree, is an equation that equates a quartic polynomial to zero, of the form. where a ≠ 0. [1] The derivative of a quartic function is a cubic function. Sometimes the term biquadratic is used instead of quartic, but, usually, biquadratic function refers to a quadratic function of a square (or ...

  8. Equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation

    Description. An equation is written as two expressions, connected by an equals sign ("="). [2] The expressions on the two sides of the equals sign are called the "left-hand side" and "right-hand side" of the equation. Very often the right-hand side of an equation is assumed to be zero.

  9. Function (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    t. e. In mathematics, a function from a set X to a set Y assigns to each element of X exactly one element of Y. [1] The set X is called the domain of the function [2] and the set Y is called the codomain of the function. [3] Functions were originally the idealization of how a varying quantity depends on another quantity.
