    Leibniz's notation for the derivative, which is used in several slightly different ways. 1. If y is a variable that depends on x , then d y d x {\displaystyle \textstyle {\frac {\mathrm {d} y}{\mathrm {d} x}}} , read as "d y over d x" (commonly shortened to "d y d x"), is the derivative of y with respect to x .

    While the appearance of a frown varies from culture to culture, there appears to be some degree of universality to the recognition of the frown as a negative facial expression. [2] In fact, frowning as a component of anger or disgust is widely recognized as a universal expression easily recognized across cultures. [3]

    Rigor is a cornerstone quality of mathematics, and can play an important role in preventing mathematics from degenerating into fallacies. well-behaved An object is well-behaved (in contrast with being Pathological ) if it satisfies certain prevailing regularity properties, or if it conforms to mathematical intuition (even though intuition can ...

  6. Multiple representations (mathematics education) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_representations...

    In mathematics education, a representation is a way of encoding an idea or a relationship, and can be both internal (e.g., mental construct) and external (e.g., graph). Thus multiple representations are ways to symbolize, to describe and to refer to the same mathematical entity. They are used to understand, to develop, and to communicate ...

    The extended ƒ-vector is formed by concatenating the number one at each end of the ƒ-vector, counting the number of objects at all levels of the face lattice; on the left side of the vector, f −1 = 1 counts the empty set as a face, while on the right side, f d = 1 counts P itself. For the cube the extended ƒ-vector is (1,8,12,6,1) and for ...
