  2. Linear inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_inequality

    A simple procedure to determine which half-plane is in the solution set is to calculate the value of ax + by at a point (x 0, y 0) which is not on the line and observe whether or not the inequality is satisfied. For example, [3] to draw the solution set of x + 3y < 9, one first draws the line with equation x + 3y = 9 as a dotted line, to ...

  3. Inequality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    For instance, to solve the inequality 4x < 2x + 1 ≤ 3x + 2, it is not possible to isolate x in any one part of the inequality through addition or subtraction. Instead, the inequalities must be solved independently, yielding x < ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ and x ≥ −1 respectively, which can be combined into the final solution −1 ≤ x < ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠.

  4. Cauchy–Schwarz inequality - Wikipedia

    where , is the inner product.Examples of inner products include the real and complex dot product; see the examples in inner product.Every inner product gives rise to a Euclidean norm, called the canonical or induced norm, where the norm of a vector is denoted and defined by ‖ ‖:= , , where , is always a non-negative real number (even if the inner product is complex-valued).

  5. Young's inequality for products - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young's_inequality_for...

    Proof [2]. Since + =, =. A graph = on the -plane is thus also a graph =. From sketching a visual representation of the integrals of the area between this curve and the axes, and the area in the rectangle bounded by the lines =, =, =, =, and the fact that is always increasing for increasing and vice versa, we can see that upper bounds the area of the rectangle below the curve (with equality ...

  6. Ptolemy's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ptolemy's_inequality

    A cycle graph in which the distances disobey Ptolemy's inequality. Ptolemy's inequality holds more generally in any inner product space, [1] [9] and whenever it is true for a real normed vector space, that space must be an inner product space. [9] [10] For other types of metric space, the inequality may or may not be

  7. Jensen's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jensen's_inequality

    Jensen's inequality generalizes the statement that a secant line of a convex function lies above its graph. Visualizing convexity and Jensen's inequality. In mathematics, Jensen's inequality, named after the Danish mathematician Johan Jensen, relates the value of a convex function of an integral to the integral of the convex function.

  8. Inequation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inequation

    In mathematics, an inequation is a statement that an inequality holds between two values. [1] [2] It is usually written in the form of a pair of expressions denoting the values in question, with a relational sign between them indicating the specific inequality relation. Some examples of inequations are: <

  9. Linear equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_equation

    A non-vertical line can be defined by its slope m, and its y-intercept y 0 (the y coordinate of its intersection with the y-axis). In this case, its linear equation can be written = +. If, moreover, the line is not horizontal, it can be defined by its slope and its x-intercept x 0. In this case, its equation can be written
